Vinterdvala Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 If I look back I'm lost = I will never learn from my mistakes :bang:Almost all Dany's frequent phrases make me grind my teeth. Which is also quite annoying thing to repeatedly read in the books, by the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Selig Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Wherever whores go; This. Just shut up already, Tyrion. I am so hoping Tyrion meets Tysha but she kills him for what he did to her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Light a wight tonight Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 You all can take swings at Dany, hate on Tyrion hell even Stannis, but don't you fucking touch Patchface.

jon stark I Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 When Dany says "I am the blood of the Dragon" (which she does half of her entire chapters)I really want to kill her.Stupid summer child. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Usrnmhsnomning Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Breaking fast, like just say breakfast!You're aware that breakfast was the slang term for breaking your fast, right? The use of breaking fast kinda fits in with every other instance of 400 year old speech patterns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maydule Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 You're aware that breakfast was the slang term for breaking your fast, right? The use of breaking fast kinda fits in with every other instance of 400 year old speech patterns.As with "must needs" mentioned above, it is an old speech pattern now, but that doesn't mean it doesn't belong in this type of story."For I am only a young girl and know little of the ways of war.""If I look back I am lost."Dany is great at making up annoying phrases. She even uses the most annoying of all:"I am the blood of the dragon." :bang: :agree: Especially the last one! If only she did something with it and it stopped being just a phrase.. I might even like it again, one day, maybe... :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blood of the Flagon Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 "what is dead may never die......." could do without this every iron born chapter.reading nuncle or dugs ruins my day.interesting that arya has more catch phrases than anyone and uses them more than any character but Ygritt and escapes the wrath of this post. All those things that syrio taught her, her prayer. Escaping this board would make harranhall look easy.I actually like how GRRM uses this in the inner dialogue of the POV's. I have phrases I've heard come up in my head when prompted by some familiar situation or something, I think everyone does to a degree. I will defend it as an effective way to convey a characters thoughts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lannistergold Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 When walder Frey says "heh"Yep. Once or twice in a scene would have been enough to communicate what an irritating man he is.Also:"You'll wake the dragon""She rode her silver" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
