I never told you the effort was minimal, where are you getting that from?
You wouldn't understand, because you don't have to worry about being out of a job or being abandoned by your family or going to jail, because you love someone. He's pushed through more than "mild discomfort" - back home people die over this, Aemond.
You're letting your uncle/brother in law/would-be murderer jerk you off at the bar, don't lecture me about healthy relationships.
Your defensiveness points to a desire that he'd do more, all the same.
[ he's not going to argue about the other points raised; not only would it be a waste of his time, it will tread over matters they've already argued over, and aemond is not inclined to repeat himself for anyone. he barely tolerates it with family. whichβ ]
And Daemon is family. Is this supposed to shame me? Have I not been clear in saying I'd prefer to marry my own blood than not?
Carouse and debase yourself with whoever you like, so long as you do not forget yourself the way you do with your Hawkins. Do you love him? Does he love you? Does his open affections now make up for his previous failings? Are you satisfied with this? He bats his eyes at you and you fall right into his hands without so much a token protest.
Sorry, did your eye gloss over the part where I said he tried to kill you? YOU told me that.
You're making a lot of assumptions about a relationship you know very little about. I do love him. He loves me, too. That's worth fighting for and working through problems instead of taking off when things get hard.
And he will still try to kill me, just as will endeavour to kill him. The time will come for it.
Are they wrong, then? My assumptions. Has he said explicitly how he cares for you? I do not have any questions about where my mother's love lies, or where my uncle's loyalty stands, or any one person in my family. You have seen it yourself, how we've set aside our quarrels to stand for what is just.
Why do you turn your mislike outwards, Tim? Love alone is not worth fighting for if that is all you have to stand on. It needs loyalty. Honesty. Dedication, and both ways.
And you don't think that'sΒ unhealthy? Being intimate with someone who wants you dead?
I don't have any doubt about the way he feels. I used to, but it's better now. Nobody is without sin, I don't expect him to be. We've been working on all of those things. I didn't come to your place because he hurt me or lied or to self-flagellate.
god, I dunno, everyone? people were really pissed. are you worried about someone in particular? I am also kinda worried that I lack any survival instinct. I trusted a lot of wolves.
oh. that's like, a thing?
look at you! you've presented your authentic self to the world! that's tough to do.
