the way in which jon and robb's futures are foreshadowed by the mother of the other: robb dying too young and becoming a ghost that haunts their siblings, a reminder of innocence and happier days, and jon dying and being brought back to life, a shadow of what he once was, a dark mirror to himself

#cat stark is jon's real mother as in mother of the narrative #you know how sansa and arya are foils because sansa is ned with cat's looks and arya is cat with ned's looks #robb is lyanna with cat's looks and jon is cat with lyanna's looks #asoiaf #house stark #cat stark #robb stark

If there is one line I like to over-analyze in the ASoIAF books it is a rather famous thought that goes inside Cat's head before her death. As the steel is close to her throat Cat thinks "No, don’t, don’t cut my hair, Ned loves my hair." And this line and her entire inner monologue is absolutely heart-breaking but one thing I fixate on is the actual sentence itself.

"Ned loves my hair."

Anyone who has read the books knows that Cat holds contempt for the fact that except for Arya, she has failed to give Ned children who look like him. It is also one of the reasons she dislikes Jon so much, because the mother of Jon (who she assumes to be Ned's bastard son) has managed to give Ned a child that looks just like him while she, his lawfully wedded wife gave birth to five of his children only for four of them to come out looking exactly like her. Red hair, blue eyes. Unlike Jon (and Arya) who share Ned's dark hair and dark eyes.

And knowing that it is so interesting to me that Cat's last thought about Ned (and her last thought ever) was that Ned loves her hair.

Because Ned loved her, he loved her hair, he loved her the way she was. And every time he looked at Robb, Sansa, Bran and Rickon he saw the reflection of the woman he loved, while Cat was so upset that they weren't all reflections of the man she loved.

Every time Ned ran his fingers through their hair, he ran his fingers through the hair of the woman he loved. He never resented Cat for the fact that four of his children didn't look like him, he loved that they looked like their mother, again, the woman he loved so much. He loved that they had the same hair he loved on Cat, and judging by it being her last thought Cat also knew that Ned loved her hair (and the way she looked), whether she ever came to the realization that Ned was perfectly happy with the way their children looked at all, or if she realized after he was dead and it was too late, it is unclear. But all those years she beat herself up over nothing.

Ned loved her the way she was, Ned loved his children the way they were, when they looked like him and when they didn't. Because when they didn't look like him, they looked like the love of his life, his darling wife.

And if the books decide to go with R+L=J it also adds another layer to Cat and Ned's relationship. Because Jon's mother was always a woman she didn't know but was still competing with in her mind for Ned's love for all these years. Turns out she didn't even exist. Turns out she didn't need to feel inferior to the woman Ned loved enough to not even talk about with her, no need to feel bad about the fact that she was able to give Ned a child that looked like him while Cat "failed".

At the end of the day, all the voices in her head making her feel insecure in her marriage never needed to be there, because everything she thought of as a problem with her were not problems at all for Ned. He was perfectly happy with her and their children.

“Oh nedcat is too boring to me, just a normal married couple you know”

he lies about cheating on her, except it’s the other way around from how it usually is. she hates his other son who isn’t actually his other son and he won’t tell her who the mother is. she was supposed to marry his objectively hotter older brother. they fuck so hard she aches afterwards. she tells him their toddler is afraid of his killer wolf and he says the kid has to toughen up. he’s a second son that never wanted to be lord, she tells him he needs to toughen up. he almost kills a man in a street because he believes that man is insinuating things about her. she thinks of how much he loved her hair while she claws her face off. and also they love each other deeply and are very devoted to one another

um. can i be honest. with you. i think it's dumb as fuck when people talk about great house genetics in asoiaf as if they're a plot hole or a world building flaw and not like. a very cute and fun and purposeful feature of the world. you fr have no sense of whimsy.

#like yes every great house is INSTANTLY recognizable by their eye and hair color and what of it #yes cat and ned have lady and the tramp genetics #it's CUTE and it's FUN #gul dukat raped an enslaved bajoran woman and ziyal was born with cardassian features set to 89% and also a bajoran nose ridge #this is just like. fun shorthand.#for familial ties.#especially in a setting where your familial ties determine EVERYTHING about your life #IT IS A GOOD WORLD BUILDING DETAIL

obv wouldn’t happen bc then there’d be no book but it would have been so funny if ned rlly did just grab the girls and fuck off back to winterfell after his big fight w bobby b. the entire realm still ends up at war with each other somehow and the starks are just chilling up north, ned and cat singlehandedly repopulating the bloodline by popping out yet another kid. iconic.

#Ned and cat BOTH thinking damn we could have another kid………..#yall you have five already pls stop fucking like rabbits and take care of rickon #asoiaf #a song of ice and fire #a game of thrones #agot #ned stark #eddard stark #catelyn stark #sansa stark #arya stark #valyrianscrolls #nedcat

“Nedcat don’t do pda” “Ned is shy in public” FALSE

Ned was kissing her tears w Luwin awkwardly standing to the side while he comforts his wife after having JUST done the hanky panky, goodness KNOWS what that room was like.

Dont even get me started on the brothel scene.

You’re telling me Ned didn’t enjoy making out w Cat front of Littlefinder. They were so hot they were offered a room.
