“Please tell me again how Ellaria wants to mutilate a child!  TELL ME AGAIN, YOU CHARACTER ASSASSINS!  Oh I’d also like to know WHERE ARIANNE IS!!!”  
So today’s prompt comes from Capleesi
 who desired an illustration of her throwing the A Song of Fire and Ice 
Books at Game of Thrones showrunners David Benioff and D.B. Weiss.  
Capleesi, along with many more of us are often grieved by some of the 
adaptation choices they make, and this season has seen its fair share 
even so far.  There are a great many things the show does right, and I’m
 all for adaptation in lieu of rote translation to screen, but there are
 some that I just can’t understand, and see no point in. 
But 
that’s a long discussion for another day.  It seems here that Capleesi 
herself has reopened the fighting pits of Meereen and has seen fit to 
put D&D in gladiator garb and hurl weighty novels at them from on 
high. 
I hope you like it Faru :P  I wish I could have gotten 
more done on it, but hopefully it’s visually clear enough to get some of
 the point across.  Thanks for the idea!  :D  
Tomorrow’s 
suggestion will come from facebook, and marks Day 30 of DSP!  This means
 that in addition to a 30 minute sketch, I’ll pick out one drawing from 
the last thirty days and devote another hour to working on it.  With all
 the awesome ideas I’ve been given, this is going to be a tough choice! 
 
ALSO, I’ll make another post later to reiterate, but with 
the next 30 days of DSP, I’m going to try a new system.  Every day from 
12AM to 12PM, I’m going to open up the floodgates and take all 
suggestions, either in reply to the day’s post, or through 
asks/fanmail.  At 12PM each day I’ll accrue all the suggestions from 
here and facebook, and will pick one to do at random.  This means no 
more back and forth, one day on facebook, one on tumblr.  You’ll have a 
chance to submit ideas every day!  I’ll try this for the next thirty 
days and see how it goes/if people like it.  
The first will come not at midnight tonight, but from midnight the day after until noon.  I’ll put up the alert again in due time!
