S3E7...Jaime should have kicked Locke straight into that bear pit...maybe this was brought up before but he should have gave Locke a nice hard kick in the balls right into that bear pit.. who the fuck was Locke?! Not enough of a man to keep him Brienne as a prisoner..piece of shit..ok too much wine tonight..that’s all
The bear, the bear! Lifted her high into the air! The bear! The bear!
I called for a knight, but you're a bear! A bear, a bear! All black and brown and covered with hair
Luwin couldn't help hut chuckle, the Winesink with the name he could hardly recall was alive with a song about a bear. And little did the patrons know a Bear sat amongst them. In all fairness the song could have been about his Mother and Father, she was a beauty besought from Asshai to the Arbor and he was a Bear, a knight she needed but he got he.
The Half-Bear spun his wine, the grapes used to create the concoction gave a mineral taste to the ferminted drink. He had read once that Vale Wine was rich in Minerals due to the soil, so he assumed thats where it was from.
The Gods knew that a Winesink was no place for a Lord, if anyone knew of his identity the gossip would spread like lovers pox in a war camp that he was a drunkard, when in truth his love for drink was only love for the company he shared it with.
His eyes went back and forth across the room, while most of the patrons were on their feet screaming the cheery tune, pockets of them kept their hoods up high and their conversations close. It was Luwins goal to find out any information on the Princes untimely death, and these places were infamous sources of never ending Gossip, but first he needed to find a reliable source.
Does anyone have or know where to find a full/clean recording of The Bear and the Maiden Fair instrumental version that plays in the background of multiple wedding scenes in the show?
Here are a couple links to it, though they include background noise/sound effects:
##The Boar & the Hound(s) > He saw his father pleading with the king, his face etched with grief. He saw Sansa crying herself to sleep at night, and he saw Arya watching in silence and holding her secrets hard in her heart. There were shadows all around them. One shadow was as dark as ash, with the terrible face of a hound. Another was armored like the sun, golden and beautiful. Over them both loomed a giant in armor made of stone, but when he opened his visor, there was nothing inside but darkness and thick black blood. (AGOT Bran III)
In one of the very first prophetic dreams of the series, we are treated to a very chilling passage. First we are given Ned, Sansa, and Arya. The two shadows looming over them are dark shadow with the face of a hound, and another armored like the sun, golden and beautiful. In this context, I think it's safe to say that we are seeing the Hound, and Jaime Lannister. Both the Hound and Jaime will prove to present serious problems for the aforementioned Starks. What interests me more is the figure looming over the two shadows. A giant in armor made of stone. I think we would be hard-pressed to find anyone who would argue that this is meant to be anybody other than Ser Robert Strong, the reanimated Gregor Clegane. This implies that while the Hound and Lannister may be a threat to the Starks, the Mountain is a threat to the two of them.
This presents an issue. Sandor Clegane is injured to the point of walking with a limp. According the the Gravedigger theory, he has found peace on the Quiet Isle. How can Jaime and the Hound both be threatened by the Mountain if one of them is totally out of commission? And what would unite these two characters who have scarcely shared a page together in the entire series?
While Sandor Clegane has found peace, the Hound is still quite active. First we have Rorge who sacks Saltpans while wearing the plundered armor, and is later killed by Brienne at the Crossroads, just before Biter eats half her cheek. Upon his death, Lem Lemoncloak of the Brotherhood Without Banners dons the Hound helm. Be sure to note that Rorge is missing a nose, and Lem's nose healed rather poorly after it was broken by Arya. Both successors to the Hound moniker have damaged faces, as does the original owner. This brings us to Brienne. Brutally strong, massive, scarred Brienne.
>She’s the Hound with teats, he thought. (ASOS Jaime I)
>The bear was eight feet tall. Gregor Clegane with a pelt (ASOS Jaime VI)

This had me crackin up
This is about as close as GOT gets to a ‘filler episode’. Ygritte learns that windmills are not castles, and Tyrion keeps apologising to Sansa that they have to marry. Jaime also thinks it would be unbearable if Brienne was hurt by Locke and friends, and saves her single-handedly.
And we play 20 Questions again, due to “popular request”, with even harder characters to guess. Bloggity blog.
This song comes up a lot, especially in the first books in scenes with Robert Baratheon.
Thinking about how Manderly wanted the Rat Cook to be sung when the meat pies were being served. And that song was significant. Or during the Red Wedding they played the Rains of Castamere, and that was significant.
What is the significance of The Bear and the Maiden Fair?
I am looking for a version that sounds like a room full of burly men singing it...
EDIT: Thanks for the links! I found most of those before though :(. For some reason, in my mind, when this is sung I picture a hall full of north men all drunkenly singing along.
Seeing how Ser Barristan was not on the small counsel on the show, how will they reveal the Mormont betrayal?
As soon as feet touched down onto Old Wyk, Victaria was off. She felt blindsided, she felt numb and she felt more rage than one of storms that surged over the ocean every so often. How dare he do that to her? She had been to hell and back, she had watched noble men die, and now she was to wed and be nothing more than a way to procure children.
First it was to market, buying enough fish that it overfilled in her arms. Marching towards the pit that once held the bear, she only hoped it was still there. One of the last things she had did with Dustan Drumm was get that bear, and she wished to push into its mind. To become one with an animal so ferocious, that perhaps it would change her for the better. To make her as brave as the reavers are.
She sat at the pit and began tossing fish over until one last fish sat in her lap. Now...now it was time to strike.
#AEMMA
"You're... going to break first... Guarantee it!" The squire said, his voice ragged and heavy. His palm was burning up, Aemma knew. Whilst the boy's expression was one of pain, the young Corbray simply grinned and giggled at him. It wouldn't be long before he couldn't take any more.
"Ow!" Crying out, the squire pulled his hand back from its position above the candle. Aemma just laughed at him. Her own palm had turned a painful red-ish color where the heat had licked her hand, but she would never show it to these boys. They were just lowly squires and she was the firstborn child of the Lord of Heart's Home. In a way, the pain was almost soothing; refreshing, under the right circumstances.
Aemma finally relented and pulled her hand back, all the while grinning at the squire, "You lost, Ed, give me your bet." The squire muttered something under his breath in response, clearly a bit angry at being less tolerant to pain than a little girl, but he relented and threw the bag of silver he had bet into her hands.
Ed, the boy's name was, the squire of the Captain of the Guards, Ser Jonathan. The boy was an orphan, Aemma recalled, before being made a squire when helping the Captain during some incident with the Hill Tribes. Though he was a few years older than her, Ed and Aemma had become thick as thieves since he came to the castle. Not that there weren’t other boys or girls she was friends with, and not that she particularly liked him more than her. But Ed… Ed was always willing to go along with what she said, always willing to follow her into some scheme, and not question it or yap to her Father about it.
They stole sweets from the kitchens together, occasionally escaped from the castle, made bets and dares against each other. She almost always won the bets and she always dared him the worst things. It always brought her a certain amusement, watching this boy infatuated with her do anything she said he should do. He’d once broken his foot during one of her dares and she’d laughed all the while it happened. But it didn’t dampen his infatuation with Aemma and he was back doing whatever she came up with the moment he recovered.
Once, they had been caught climbing out of Aemma's window deep into the night, with a wine bottle in hand. They had planned to go to the Godswood and drink together, but had been spotted by a guardsman on the roof and Aemma's father had been alerted. Lord Jonos almost had the boy flogged, if not for Ser Jonathan's promise that he

Love to be able to rep BEAR in here. Seems silly that we can’t pick either of those for a user flair option.
Hello everyone! This is ArcMagus of the Let's Play channel Nerd Vanguard. We post ~12 - 14 minute videos every Monday - Friday. Our focus is on comedy while also talking about game design philosophies with our game selection leaning more towards indie games or old/underappreciated gems. Please let us know what you think!
In this extended episode of "Lufia & The Fortress of Doom", we leave Medan to travel to Belgen in search of an elf who will help us find Elfrea! Once there we find out that a girl named Jerin has been offered as sacrifice to appease the monsters. Before we go to rescue her, we detour to Surinagal for advanced weapons and armor, before departing for the Southwest Cave to rescue her! We're pretty happy with how the banter of the episode turned out and hope you enjoy!

Alternatively, it is quite likely he balls out and looks amazing, only to play terrible in an even more important game.
Edit: game notes:
first drive of the game, run game going nowhere. Kirk missed an open thielen td.
Second drive, drive barely stays alive from a penalty, diggs controversial fumble.
And a Kirk fumble. Used to it at this point
Drive four: 53 total yards for the offense, missed an open cook for a first down.
Drive5, big one here down 13, let's go... And the throw behind an open thielen then sacked.
Lmao completely healthy secondary and losing to chase Daniel, on the other hand its almost the 4th quarter and we have 50 yards
Start of next drive down 16, 2 td we can still tie it up. Really need something with 4th almost here. Sacked on 2nd,but nice shot to diggs on 4th.. KIRK FUMBLED AGAIN killing a scoring drive. wtf. About done
Double fumble new drive, please do something. Overturned. Nvm, sick check down so we can punt.
Next drive: down 16 plenty time in 4th... Sacked. Check down. Seeing a pattern.
Drive 9, checking down against prevent defense. Got like 70 yards in this drive. Td
Down by 10, 3 check downs in a row. No timeouts. Thrown behind thielen behind the first down. GG
Love the Vikings, but Kirk ain't it chief. Sorry for being real, hes only proves himself being mediocre. I'll take the downvotes from the homers.
