A Clash of Kings: The Illustrated Edition - Daenerys Targaryen in the Red Waste by Lauren K. Cannon

The Dothraki named the comet shierak qiya, the Bleeding Star. The old men muttered that it omened ill, but Daenerys Targaryen had seen it first on the night she had burned Khal Drogo, the night her dragons had awakened. It is the herald of my coming, she told herself as she gazed up into the night sky with wonder in her heart. The gods have sent it to show me the way. — Daenerys I

First Thoughts on The Ones Who Live (1x01) ❤️⭐️🧟

To start, this love story speaks my language. My blog the mad lover is the home of all the little things I collect, canon content and headcanons alike, and is named for one of my favorite classical songs.

I have many other loves; music, shows and books I don’t blog about. The Walking Dead is one of them. I had nothing to say when the spin-offs from the main show started, though they are good. But this post isn’t about them. I just wanna say one thing. I remember the Talking Dead days, when many viewers were curious to hear from the cast and crew how they pulled off each episode. There were ups and downs on the storyline front, including up to Andy’s s9 departure from the show. (This was the occasion of Rick Grimes’s assumed death which prompts the Ones Who Live spin-off.) But by s10 I could see that TWD was fermenting; they knocked it out of the park with the Whisperer war. Despite the following mishaps, that occasion of brilliance gave me hope that they would strike out once again. And well—

Here we are.

This first episode is risky, confident, and concise. AMC has done it again—lightning in a bottle. Many in the TWD fandom have wondered if we’re gonna get 2 seasons. But with this level of storytelling and the punch it’s packing, I think they have a definitive ending in store for the sixth episode. And I’m more than fine with it.

If you like horror, don’t mind monsters, and could use cheering up with a love story, tune in and watch it. Especially this first episode which introduces us to the Big Bad.

For the long-term watchers, this is the moment we’ve waited 5 years for! I watched live with family and friends since s5. I was there for all their blunders and struggle sessions. On spin-offs too.

So, I thought they were gonna be lame and catch us up on Michonne first—which is not the hype. (We’ve seen hesitant and insecure writing like that in the later years too—looking at you, s11A). But they didn’t do it! They showed Rick’s story, delivered atmosphere, tone, poetry, themes and I believe, teased at the rise of a metatextual theme. (Looking at you, “Monsters that get the monsters—that’ll be over soon.”) The best part is that it’s a spin on the walking dead theme. This absolutely concise story tells me we’ll get Michonne’s years on the search for Rick in ep 2 leading up to their reunion. I do believe they will make it back to Alexandria/Commonwealth etc. What consequences come before then and what follows, I could not say with any confidence. And I love that.

They are clearly up to the task of surprising and wowing us. The one thing I will put my money on is seeing the execution or destruction Okafor’s vision for the CRM—and a connection to that new metatextual theme, in his quote above. There is SO MUCH Rick and the other 90% of the CRM don’t know, but we do, from World Beyond. And I think they are going to flip Okafor’s vision not once but twice for the viewers by the time all is said and done. They were so thorough that I have a few guesses for the military’s future, and the civic republic’s future, which I’ll write up later this week. Bravo once again, to team behind The Ones Who Live. Bravo to us, for being the audience they want to entertain.

Where are the Richonne gif makers at? There are so many parallels I’d like to request…

Here’s the first one (thanks @bristebleu):

Rick kicking Okafor in the face.

And Michonne kicking ‘unknown CRM officer’ Rick in the face.

All it took was two meet-cutes for Rick to want to put a ring on it. My man was SMITTEN.

Michonne’s got him wrapped around her little finger for eternity. And he wouldn’t have it any other way.
