Paracosm

“Tell me how it happened, Littlefinger.”

Her voice was as sharp cold as the steel of the dagger she had drawn. Petyr Baelish took a step backwards, his palms sweating. “Petyr,” he corrected, licking his lips nervously. “Cat, it’s me; I have always-“

“Loved me?” Something like a smile twisted up the corners of her lips, but to him it seemed more a grimace. “I know it well, Petyr. And that’s why you betrayed my husband, isn’t it?” Her voice broke, and for the first time since they had met again he truly realized how much she had aged from her girlhood. “That is why you killed my Ned?”

“It was the Lannisters, Cat, I swear I did not-“

Catelyn Stark brandished her knife dangerously close to his face. “The north remembers, Lord Baelish,” she intoned, her voice low and threatening. “Do not think I have forgotten who you are. What you are.” Unadulterated revulsion colored her face, and for a brief, heart-stopping moment Petyr thought she would kill him.

But Cat Tully, the girl he had always loved, the woman who had chosen another man, mother and lady- did not. She drew the dagger and backed slowly from the tent, eyes not leaving his for a moment.

In King’s Landing, there are two sorts of people. The players and the pieces.

  Sometimes it seemed to her that the Lord Protector was two people. He was Petyr, her protector, warm and funny and gentle… but he was also Littlefinger, the lord she’d known at King’s Landing, smiling slyly and stroking his beard as he whispered in Queen Cersei’s ear. And Littlefinger was no friend of hers. Littlefinger never lifted so much as his little finger for her.
  Littlefinger was only a mask he had to wear. Only sometimes Sansa found it hard to tell where the man ended and the mask began. Littlefinger and Lord Petyr looked so very much alike.

My favorite quote.

(Source: undeadlife, via isthatthetruth)

“We mistake sex for romance. Guys are taught that pushing a girl up against a wall is romance. Sex is easy; you can do it with anyone, yourself, with batteries. Romance is when someone you like walks into a room and they take your breath away. Romance is when two people are dancing and they fit together perfectly. Romance is when two people are walking next to each other and all of a sudden they find themselves holding hands, and they don’t know how that happened.”—John C. Moffi

Beauty, like ice, our footing does betray;
Who can tread sure on the smooth, slippery way:
Pleased with the surface, we glide swiftly on,
And see the dangers that we cannot shun.

- John Dryden
