"My old septon used to say that books are dead men talking. Dead men should keep quiet is what I say. No one wants to hear a dead man's yabber." - ADWD, Jon II

"Bad enough when the dead come walking, now the Old Bear wants them talking as well? No good will come of that, I'll warrant. And who's to say bones wouldn't lie? Why should death make a man truthful, or even clever? The dead are likely dull fellows, full of tedious complaints - the ground's too cold, my gravestone should be larger, why does he get more worms than I do..." - ACOK, Jon II

Eddison "Dolorous Edd" Tollett, squire, the wisest man of their time


And this is my, Eafiu's*, tumblr page. As Dolorous Edd puts it about dead men talking in any context, what I post here is neither clever, nor truthful, nor exciting. No good will come of it. And there will be books.

By the way, Dolorous Edd is a character from George R. R. Martin's "A Song of Ice and Fire". If you don't know it, go learn it. Seriously.

*Also, I have an OC named Eafiu and I sometimes talk about it and it's... weird. When I say something about Eafiu, I am not talking about /myself/. Let me just clarify that...

“His Sister liked to think of herself as Lord Tywin with teats, but she was wrong. Their father had been as relentless and implacable as a glacier, where Cersei was all wildfire, especially when thwarted…She does not lack for wits but she has no judgement, and no patience.”

“In the beginning, Beauty was frightened of the Beast, and shuddered at the sight of it. Then she found that, in spite of the monster’s awful head, her horror of it was gradually fading as time went by.” [x]

A song of Ice and Fire - Quotes.

He put Bran into bed, covered him with blankets, and blew out the candle. For a time Robb sat beside him in the dark. Bran wanted to talk to him, but he did not know what to say. “We’ll find a horse for you, I promise,” Robb whispered at last. “Are they ever coming back?” Bran asked him. “Yes,” Robb said with such hope in his voice that Bran knew he was hearing his brother and not just Robb the Lord. “Mother will be home soon. Maybe we can ride out to meet her when she comes. Wouldn’t that surprise her, to see you ahorse?” Even in the dark room, Bran could feel his brother’s smile. “And afterward, we’ll ride north to see the Wall. We won’t even tell Jon we’re coming, we’ll just be there one day, you and me. It will be an adventure.” “An adventure,” Bran repeated wistfully. He heard his brother sob. The room was so dark he could not see the tears on Robb’s face, so he reached out and found his hand. Their fingers twined together.
