So we were (re)watching #GameOfThrones season 7 episode 4 last night, which is the one that has the marvelous sparring encounter between #Arya and #Brienne of Tarth. This morning I wanted to watch it in #slowmotion, but had to settle for this on YouTube, with the speed manually set to 50%. Watched it three times like that. Wow. What a masterpiece of #stagefight choreography.

The dagger move Arya uses here is the one she ends up using against the #NightKing.

Discovered this amazing virtual exhibition about thousands of 17th century letters in the Dutch postal system that were never delivered!

New technology enables them to be read without being opened. Learn more here:

My GoT JamiexBrienne fanart. Lots of symbolism here with the flowers. His flowers are an apology and that he’s learned a lot from her, whereas hers mean hurt love but that she’ll go on.
It’s a partner piece. That is why Jamie is adorned with Tarth symbols and Brienne with Lannister ones.
That finale still hurts
