I've thought "dark wings, dark words" to myself after collecting bills from the mailbox a few times.

I seem to use "I fear" a lot, for example, "it is my round, I fear" (my favourite in-book example is Littlefinger to Robert Arryn "you tempt me sorely my lord, but I fear I promised them safe conduct").

Also, I am a schoolteacher, and have been known to tell particularly useless children that they could not sweep a stable with ten thousand brooms (a la Jorah re: Viserys).

Tell them they know nothing. Or just tell them complete bullshit and then add "it is known" at the end.

I have been known to say "It is known"

Whenever I am outside and hear a crow cawing I quote Old Nan "Don't listen to him, crows are all liars"

My fiance says: "I feel like I'm at the Wall!" when its a particularly cold day. I have also heard her say "Mother have Mercy"

Oh and sometimes i sign off my emails with "Valar Morghulis"

Haha and the funniest would have to be when I'm with my fiance and there has been a prolonged silence, i quote Lysa Arryn during her intimate time with Lord Baelish squealing... "PEEEETTTTYYYRRRRRR!!!!

@WuTangWesteros
Autumn is coming?


For me it's mainly seven hells! Gods be good. And when reflecting sometimes it's If I look back I am lost.

And if there's occasion, Valar Morghulis.

We use 'Hodor, Hodor' a few times when we feel bored. But Winter is coming is very suitable when winter is coming and there's nothing more than the cold.
