a game of thrones/a song of ice and fire friending meme:
+ I've been thinking about doing this for a while and really, there's no better time than the present, what with the season two premiere on the horizon and my desire to have new people to squee with. scorpiod1 and I thought we'd put this together to make some new Game Of Thrones/A Song Of Ice And Fire friends, so come play and promote!

Name: Meg
Location: Toronto
If You could describe yourself in five words, what would they be?: No good at describing myself.
What other fandoms are you currently squeeing about?: Parks and Recreation, Happy Endings, Community, 30 Rock... basically I love a lot of comedies (I also just started Cougar Town). Apparently I need warmth and happiness to balance out my ASOIAF obsession. Also Fringe and Downton Abbey.
What are you interested in?: Other than your usual couch potato business? Salsa dancing, visiting museums and art galleries, going to the opera and the ballet to pretend like I'm cultured, shopping for more shoes and dresses that I don't need.
What is your journal primarily full of?: TV/film reviews and squee with the occasional slice of real life mixed in for flavour.
What kind of friends are you looking for?: People who share common interests who want to engage in actual conversation and get to know each other... and can put up with my TL;DR self.
Are you active in other places such as Twitter/Tumblr/Dreamwidth?: I have a Twitter and a Tumblr.
you win or you die
The books, the show, or both? How spoiled are you?: I know it all!
What house would you put yourself in, and why?: House Tyrell. If I were to play the game of thrones I could see myself playing it like Margaery or Olenna - crafty and self-motivated, but not morally bankrupt and still maintaining a genuine connection to those I love.
Favorite Characters: Sansa, Theon, Catelyn, Cersei, Jaime, Arianne, Arya, Brienne, Melisandre, Margaery, Littlefinger, Ser Barristan Selmy. And fine, Jon Snow. You won me over in the last book. And I still love Dany as a character even though her story is slipping.
Favorite Ships: I don't really genuinely ship anything in this series. Maybe Sansa/Littlefinger/Moon Door. MY GREATEST ENDGAME WISH. Basically I want it to be this. Oh, and I like Jon/Ygritte and Jon/Melisandre. Basically Jon/Gingers Who Tell Him What's What.
Least Favorite Characters and Ships: Other than your standard assholes like Joffrey/Walder Frey/Viserys/RAMSAY BOLTON? I'm not fond of the elder Greyjoys except when Victarion is being unintentionally hilarious (HE KEPT MEANING TO SACRIFICE THE DUSKY WOMAN BUT HE NEVER GOT AROUND TO IT). Tyrion and I are on a break after A Dance with Dragons.
As for ships, even though I find her relationships with a lot of characters fascinating I do not genuinely ship Sansa with any of the men she is usually shipped with (I am, however, totally into Sansa/Margaery).
Which character you think deserves a POV, but didn't get one?: As much as I'd love a Tyrell POV, I get why they don't have one. It's the same reason Littlefinger and Varys don't have one: because they ~know too much. I'd love to get a Wildling POV.
Who would you like to see on the Iron Throne in the end?: At this point, I have no idea. My dream scenario would probably involve Westeros splitting up into several kingdoms each led by a queen, but other than that I've stopped speculating about the overarching meta plot
Who would you bet on surviving the series?: Sansa and Arya. I can see both of their respective trajectories involving triumphing over adversity. Sansa, in particular, I think will make it to the end as the meta centre of the series (i.e. the vehicle through which GRRM plays with dismantling preconceived ideas about how stories unfold).
What is your ideal ending for the series?: Sansa being Queen in the North. Sansa and Arya, and Arya and Jon, reuniting. Dany finally, finally crossing the Narrow Sea. Theon and Jeyne Poole running away to a little hovel to live a peaceful, sexless life together. Asha and Arianne being still alive. And IDK MAYBE THE DRAGONS WILL FLY NORTH AND MELT THE WALL AND FLOOD WESTEROS.
QUICK! Post some of your favorite gifs:
