“The first, fundamental condition for the introduction of community of property is the political liberation of the proletariat through a democratic constitution.”
— Friedrich Engels, Draft of a Communist Confession of Faith
It’s wild that what people want from Ares is just Mars, like besides the supporting women thing it’s like exactly it. A rage filled but heroic warrior who’s actually competent and represents civilization and the common soldier, a city builder. He’s even a farmer god as well. Anyways Chad Mars vs Virgin Ares

“There had once been a girl more important than Lyanna Stark”
King Robert reunited with his oldest child, Mya Stone
sketched by: euronswife on twt
Colored in hair version and regular sketch because I wasn’t sure if people would be able to tell it was Mya. I know she has short hair in the series, but this is set a little bit before AGOT since Jon Arryn is still alive (so she could have cut it since), and my biggest interest in ASOIAF is historical influences so I tried to find a way that her hair is sort of short but still influenced by Tudor(ish) fashion in Europe. Her hair is to her shoulders, but because she’s hunching her shoulders in discomfort, her hair looks longer than it is.
The idea for this piece is that Jon Arryn has found out suspicious things about the legitimate Baratheon children that is leading him to believe they are not Robert’s biological children. He still wants to be subtle and not outright tell Robert until he has irrefutable proof, because someone is sure to feel Robert’s wrath and he doesn’t want it to be him. Bringing Edric to King’s Landing means letting Renly know about this (and Renly can’t keep his mouth shut) so he summons a known bastard of the King from his own realm, Mya Stone, to illustrate the differences between children of Baratheon blood and the children of Cersei Lannister. He dresses her in a stuffy yellow dress that she’s not used to, and puts jewels in her hair like Cersei likes to do with the other handmaidens. Mya is worried that the King won’t recognize her after so many years, she was a toddler the last time she’d seen him, after all. But as soon as she enters his chambers and he sets his eyes on her, he sends away his whores. He clasps Mya tightly at the tops of her arms. He seems as if he might cry, and Mya doesn’t know how to feel. She’s hurt from all the missed time, but she wants the King’s approval as well. And the fact he’s so emotional is a sort of emotional release of all the feelings that have been weighing heavy on her heart all her life. She still doesn’t know why he would have left her, why he stopped loving her, what she had done.
Mya and Robert one of my favorite tragic father and daughter, I can’t help it.

«Sansa thought of the games she would play as a young child, always insisting that Robb joined in. He could never refuse and so he would be the brave knight to her captured princess, with Arya often playing the villain. The rescue attempt would always end with a sword fight while Sansa cheered Robb on, and when he won he would pick her up and spin her around while she laughed happily, kissing his cheek and declaring him the bravest knight in the seven kingdoms.
Though they were silly games of pretend, still Sansa waited in King’s Landing with the hope that Robb would be her knight just one more time.»
