      Ah, but he is up North, in the Cave of the 3Eyed Crow, helping the COTF and cannot come. Rickon is your only hope.

      Since my Queen is fine with her siblings take the North, I am wholeheartedly with her... Long live, heir to "forever young" King of the Starks, oh sorry... King in the North :)

      But once your Queen becomes a player in the Game, she'll become corrupted.

      You did... As we can see, Stark men are no Sherlocks... As always, you were very kind, my sweet forever young summer child.

      Well, like Sherlock in A Sign of Three, I might have been drunk and obviously can't remember :)

      You might want to try and have a go in the heresy threads. You can jump right in and people welcome you kindly :) I'm agnostic as well towards the ASOIAF Gods, but the Old Gods will always be special to me :D

      I don't even to pretend to understand what the hell Black Crow is talking about anymore, but to each his own.

      Sometimes it is a bit hard to keep up with Heresy, or Black Crow, but when you come to understand what he's talking about it makes sense, and you like it :)

      I hope so. Everyone keeps telling me they're harder than GCSEs, and that I really need to work hard. Like I don't already know that.

      What animal will it be? The Stag one continued or will it be Dragons?

      Mladen

      Well, I will use the holidays to finish four essays - Sansa wolf, Lion posture, Stag anatomy and physiology and Prelude to Dragons: Fire essay.

  7. At 5000 posts I feel I should say something meaningful, so borrowing off Gandalf-" So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide to what to do with the time that is given to us".

      Congrats on reaching 5000! Yet another poster who joined after me and yet has a much higher post count. :)

      Mladen

      I just saw this. First, congrats on milestone, although I am late a bit. Second, we have noticed you even before you reached 500, yet alone 5000. It's a rare gift to meet such young, and yet so intelligent man. Again, congrats my dear boy...

    4. King of Winters

      King of Winters

      Thank you Mladen. I don't know what to say, when I got to 500 posts I didn't know people noticed me like they do now, but thank for that, it's brightened my day :)

  8. Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow, Creeps in this petty pace from day to day To the last syllable of recorded time, And all our yesterdays have lighted fools The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle! Life’s but a walking shadow, a poor player That struts and frets his hour upon the stage And then is heard no more. It is a tale Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, Signifying nothing.

      Eh, that one is actually my least favorite play of his. And also not one of my favorite pieces of literature in general. Romeo and Juliet are just not that sympathetic with the whole they-haven't-even-known-each-other-a-week-thing. I know it's condensed for time reasons in the play (the poem the play is based on has the romance taking course over six months), but it's something I just can't get over for some reason. The ending with the reconciliation of the families is good th...

      It's probably because I'm a sucker for romance :P

      My least favourite would be Richard III as I think he was a good King and Shakespeare only wrote him the way he did because he wanted to please Elizabeth I, as she was his granddaughter.

    4. Lady Howell

      No shame in being a sucker for romance. Once upon a time, I used to like Twilight. Then I realized there were some...problems there that I had been overlooking. Romance just makes everyone feel so warm and happy, though, that you forget about things like logic. Or so I've heard anyways.

  9. The past: a new and uncertain world. A world of endless possibilities and infinite outcomes. Countless choices define our fate: each choice, each moment - a moment in the ripple of time. Enough ripple, and you change the tide... for the future is never truly set.

      You built these weapons to destroy us. Why? Because You are afraid of our gifts. Because we are different. Humanity has always feared that which is different. Well, I’m here to tell you, to tell the world you’re right to fear us. We are the future! We are the ones who will inherit this Earth! And anyone who stands in our way will suffer the same fate as these men you see before you. Today was meant to be a display of your power.

      Humans use your blood, your genes to create a weapon that wipes us all out. I was only doing what I thought necessary to secure our future.

      We can't risk keeping her alive, now that we know what happens...~ He's beyond greatness.

  10. The Facelss Men have been a check against human corruption for thousands of years. They sacked King's Landing, loaded trade ships with plague rats, burned Valyria to the ground. Every time a civilization reaches the pinnacle of its decadence, they return to restore the balance.

      @ Mladen, the only thing Sansa could sack is a snow castle of KL, and she couldn't even help Stannis sack KL.

      @ Ulysses, yes it is.

      I'm sorry Mr. Movie Man :P

      I bet you have posters of Roose Bolton and Walder Frey all around your bedroom, you monster :P

      I'll be forever young when I drink from the Holy Grail. Which is, coincidentally, another Indiana Jones adventure. :)

      My dear summer boy, by now you should have learnt that there are no coincidences when I speak :)

      And by now you should know that there are no men like me. There's only me :)

      And that I'm a cold winter boy :)

  13. So many theories...they make you think and think. Defend your own. Obey the best. Keep to your theory. Your life for your theories. Protect your friends. Defend your friends. Respect the mods. Obey the laws. It's too much. No matter what you do, you're forsaking one theory or the other.

      Erm, yes. Yes you can :). I have to wait until Christmas to read it :(

    3. Mladen

      Well, luckily I am able to get to it ASAP. It seems like tomorrow will never come. :)

  15. I don't practice incest, but...for Lyanna Stark I'd change my ways.

  17. Hello darkness, my old friend, I've come to talk with you again. Because a vision softly creeping, Left its seeds while I was sleeping. And the vision that was planted in my brain, Still remains. Within the sound of silence.

    1. Corvo Attano

      Corvo Attano

      One of my favourites of all time :)

      Its usage in the movie adaptation of Watchmen was a stroke of cinematic genius :)

    2. King of Winters

      King of Winters

      That's where I first heard it (on Watchmen) when I was younger and thought it was a great use of music for that scene.

      It was, it captured the atmosphere of The Comedian's funeral perfectly.

  18. We all know what Mladen, JQC, Apple or E-Ro would do. They would go right up to the trolls and haters alone, break them with their words, and go through the rest slaying the trolls with their left hands and the haters with their right. I am not them. But I will march against the trolls and haters, and I will free the Forum … or die in the attempt.

      Apparently he forgot about the rest of Europe, Africa, and Asia. But seriously, I really admire Alexander the Great. I always wonder how people so young could do so much and be so, well, great.

    2. King of Winters

      King of Winters

      Well he's just one of those many people in history that was gifted in the Art of War and because of that, he created one of the largest empires ever seen at that time. I think his individual genius of War could only be rivalled by Hannibal.

  20. You clearly don't know who you're talking to, so let me clue you in. I am not in danger, I am the danger. A guy opens his door and gets shot and you think that of me? No. I am the one who knocks!

      Apparently, you are Stannis...

      Not Stannis, Heisenberg.

  21. He will give the people of Earth an ideal to strive towards. We will race behind him. We will stumble. We will fall. But in time we will join him in the Sun. In time he will help us accomplish, wonders.

      I have a feeling this is a quote from something, but i don't know what...

    2. King of Winters

      King of Winters

      It's from Man of Steel. The quote is by Jor-El (Russel Crowe), Superman's father.

  23. It's been one year since I joined the Forum. What's that in anniversary gift terms? Paper?

    1. King of Winters

      King of Winters

      Spending time of this Forum has (some what) passed the time and made it bearable for waiting for TWOW.

  24. Men are haunted by the vastness of eternity. And so we ask ourselves: will our actions echo across the centuries? Will strangers hear our names long after we are gone, and wonder who we were, how bravely we fought, how fiercely we loved?

    1. Mladen

      Mladen

      Don't worry, my sweet summer child... You will be forever young :)))

    2. King of Winters

      King of Winters

      We need a new Forum rule about the usage of that quote. I will not even write it or say it out loud.

  25. There are no strings on me.

      Oh, my sweet summer forever young child, Pinocchio...
