The article was connected to Terry Prachett somehow and I have tp share Chad came from Ceadda, name of a 7th century Anglo-Saxon saint,and until the 1960’s it was a rare AF Catholic name. Nobody 100% knows what it means, there’s suggestions of welsh element “cad” that means battle. But Tiffany? It means “manifestation of God”, it’s greek and for once the English version wasn’t the child of the French version but the sibling xD

It was connected to Terry Pratchett because he has a character named Tiffany Aching who is supposed to be living in a medieval Europe type of setting. But yeah it’s crazy how languages works and develops and how often we perceive real history to be unrealistic. Chad and Tiffany being names much older than we believe is just a couple of examples among many!

I’m hoping for a scenario in which Cersei asks for death. where she’s cornered (by Dany probably) and knows she’s lost, so instead of the worse options of being burned alive or being used again as a political pawn, she gets to make the choice. idk, as much as she’s a shitty person and her death is inevitable and deserved, she’s had a shitty life and upbringing too and i want her to have some control over the situation

hard same, i’d prefer to see her make that choice too.

Hi! So I agree with you about cersei’s death and while we disagree in some things (I do think that the punishment should fit the crime) I think you’re dead on about misogyny in this series I love ASOIAF with all my heart but the discrepancy in the treatment give to Twin’s children That’s why I very concerned with jaime being able to redeem himself since seems a given that tyrion will go down the same path It looks unjust that cersei be the only one that cannot be saved Thanks 4 the time xoxo

When I say “I don’t believe that the severity of the punishment should match the severity of the crimes”, what I’m saying is that I much prefer the Stark way of approaching crime: the facts are laid out, you’re given a chance to defend yourself, and then depending on what you did, you’re punished for it. If you kill one person, you’re beheaded, if you kill 100 people but also torture and mutilate them, you’re still beheaded with no other punishment attached. I just don’t believe in systems where “if this person did x to a person, then kills them, they should have x done to them too”.

Redemption is something a lot of people want for their favorite characters, but I’m wary of it. Some people just can’t be redeemed.

Thank you for dropping in!
