Well... just finished Quantum Break (100% too, which was a pleasant surprise).  I... really liked the story.  Unfortunately, that's hindering me from doing much atm.  Should I install another game tonight to play? :/  
 
Play the Game of Thrones and reply to the RP, damn it!



I already did with the Forresters (Asher will return for all of your heads Whitehill!).  I'm waiting on Lewyn's reaction from @Akio before doing an uber post with replies to all the direct interactions at the feast/intro of the Hightowers.


Early apology: Sorry Targs at the Lion's feast.  I've pretty much lost track as to who did anything to any Lannisters other than arriving, so... yea. :(  
 
Fun random fact about the last iteration of this RP. Trevir and the Cast on the Melee field weren't actually meant to be sticking together. The mention of 'this is the last thing we'll do together' was meant to signify that, how they would walk out on the tourney field together and then take no prisoners and fight each other. But it must've been ambiguous, because @WanderingJester's post mentioned them staying in formation and sticking together. I didn't want to kick up a fuss and make him rewrite his post, so I just rolled with it.


Also, prepping the Baratheon younger sister. Despite the fact that I haven't finished Daeron, damn it. Ah, well. There's not much more to his life. I guess if I'm playing Daenerys, then his life continued like that with the mildly creepy ("You did what at how young?) but ultimately loving relationship. And he became Master of Laws. There's honestly not much more to his life, it's been quiet. So yeah, if @ailurophile is still okay with it, prepare for a Baratheon sister who I have just decided, for shits and giggles, is going to be really tall.


Also, I've just noticed that there's Rory Baratheon as one of the characters. Is... is that still here?
 
@Fezzes she sound so good already, especially as ivana is fairly short. the bio so far is fairly short so you can add what you want and it should be fine.  ;)  


also if you end up needing someone else to play daenerys then i can probably handle that, unless you found someone.

I'm glad you like the prospect of a tall sister. Don't worry, she's going to have your back. With her secret ninja unarmed combat training. 


That was a joke. Mostly. Probably.


I've found someone to play Daenerys. But currently that someone is me. If you're willing to take that off my hands, then I will hoist that off onto you, because I'm moderately lazy. We'll need to be talking about Ivana and Lysa's relations and how they interact, anyway, so Daenerys and Daeron discussion shouldn't be too much more.

that'd come in handy seeing as ivana is both incompetent and weak


do you want to pm me and we can sort a few things out then? 

Well, I guess you know who to come to when you need a certain troublingly rebellious husband to get strangled and/or thrown out the window.


I just noticed the note of how Ivana doesn't care much for her siblings, but Lysa was always a favourite. Awww, shucks, and Lysa isn't even up yet.


I'll PM you in several or more minutes. I'm currently engaged with playing Total War: Attila, and it's fun. I'll be with you shortly. If you want to start the PM while I'm away and get a head start, though, you can do that.

You're a monster, how could you let Rodrik die like that.

That's a good question @Archon?


On a side note, what year would it have been when Daeron married Daenerys?
 
Cheers? Are we drinking?
NO ONE INVITED ME OUT TO THE BAR! 



THIS IS DISCRIMINATION! ONLY COMMON WEALTHERS ALLOWED? I AM SUING YOU!


I once more find myself awake into the early morning, with no signs of sleep taking me.


Help is requested. 

I'm English, cheers in synonymous with thank you.
 
Yeah, same down in Australia, too. I think, if you tallied it up, 'cheers' is used way more than 'thanks' down here.


I'm underage, I'm pretty sure, but yeah, alright.

Not too surprising. Australia's always been a Little England, hasn't it? 


Too afraid to rebel and leave the house. Like fucking Canada.

It depends on formality, if someone gives you a well thought out gift then you say thank you, but if a stranger holds open a door for you then they get a quick cheers.

I don't have that level of social awareness.

Okay, if you're going there. The only reason the American Revolution ended in a victory for the Colonies was because of France.


Random little tidbit. We've rebelled before, actually. Battle of Vinegar Hill. It got put down. Eureka Stockade. Also got put down. We didn't have the resources and shit to do that. Penal colony from the very start, we were designed with that sort of shit in mind.


EDIT: I'm looking back at my posts, and I think I swear too casually. I'll try and tone that down.

That was when the French were the undisputed strongest land force in Europe. Fucking fierce soldiers and a massive population to boot. I'm glad they came over and helped. When you're fighting the largest (not yet largest, but approaching Mongol sizes within the next fifty years) Empire in history, a bunch of religiously persecuted folks will need some help. 


Callin' you lil' England wasn't an insult. Unless. . .Australia is actually Lil' Ireland, and you'd wanna kick my teeth in for that. I always just had the impression Australia was a closer, culturally, country to England than any of the other colonies? Got some similarities, accents is a big one. They come across as similar to me, whereas the American Accent is derived from a thoroughly out of date English one from the 1600's. Just kinda denotes to me, might be entirely wrong, that the British and Australians had a closer and shorter history together.

I mean, it really depends on where in America you're from, obviously some of the accents in the southern states are influenced by Spanish, and I believe that the New Yrok accent is at least partially influenced by Dutch. Some areas are sure to be more English than others.

Eh, I'm fine with Lil' Ireland. I've got a soft spot for Ireland, it's odd. Although I'd argue that we're larger than both England and Ireland, but whatever. Also, the Australian accent and the English accent (although there are multiple English accents, soooo...) do sound kinda similar, when you're in the cities, I think. English is definitely more received pronunciation, but they're vaguely similar. It's definitely got plenty of Irish roots, Australia, cause of the whole convicts thing. I've been told that the country Australian accent and the Irish accent sound similar, and I've promptly told those people that they need to lay off the LSD. There'd just been some Irish Catholic rebellion or some shit, so England was just like 'oh lookey, we've got just the place to send you lot to' and stuffed them on some boats that set sail for Australia, which maaaaay have been called New Holland at that point. I think it was. Somedude Flanders suggested Australia (Terra Australis, but he preferred Australia) in the 1800's sometime. And the First Fleet happened maybe before that. Iunno, I'm not too clear on Aussie history, it's boring as fuck. More complicated than that, but basically that.

I've got no clue on the American accent. There's different sounds and they're from different places, and I haven't spoken to or heard nearly enough Americans to tell.
