(At the Harrenhal feast)
Howland: Well, I'd like to offer some words of thanks, for saving me and inviting me to this…
Lyanna: (Pointing) Porcupine, pitchfork, twins!
Howland: Sorry?
Lyanna: The men who hurt you are squires for those three lords: porcupine, pitchfork, twins! If they appear in the lists…
Howland: No, no, the crannog’s suffered enough ridicule. I'll invite none further.
Lyanna: Then enter the joust as a mystery knight! We'll find a helm that hides a face. No one need ever know your name unless you win. Then unmask and claim the glory.
Howland: No, no, no!
Benjen: Barristan the Bold was ten when he jousted the prince and earned that name! A ten-year-old mystery knight, now a hero.
Howland: A hero?
Lyanna: You have to do something, Howland. Yes, you'll fail, most likely, but you'll live out your days knowing you were brave enough to try. And mayhaps the gods will favor you. And in a heartbeat, your path shall be forever changed.
Benjen: She's right. If you don't enter the lists, I will! I'll make a name for myself. I'll take the white instead of the black. Anything but be sent to the Wall.
Lyanna: Have you once unhorsed me in the training yard?
Benjen: Nobody's unhorsed you, Lyanna. You're a centaur!

(At a later scene, after Lyanna has danced with Brandon, Robert, and Rhaegar)
Howland: (To Lyanna) May I… would you like to dance?
Benjen: She's danced with a Lord and a Prince tonight, Howland. I doubt she wants to go with you.
(Lyanna smiles and dances with Howland)

Someone said, "I don't care about canon" and then also wrote, "Your fav is such a slut and whore", and expected me to stay silent like a demure lady...
You wish.
my take in most #fandomtwt discourse is that you can’t insult a beloved character and seriously expect the fans of said character to not insult your fav in return. talk shit and get hit simple as that
(The Harrenhal godswood at night, after the welcome feast)
Benjen: Porcupine, pitchfork, twins! I CHALLENGE!
(The Stark siblings and Howland play at jousting, Benjen ‘wins’)
Brandon: Unhelm yourself, champion, and claim your ransom!
Benjen: Nay! I lust not for glory, but justice. Let these fallen knights teach their squires honor. That will be ransom enough!
Ned: (Laughing) How much did you drink, tourney Champion?
Benjen: It should be you, Ned. If Brandon falls, he’s got his reputation to lose, but you've got nothing.
Lyanna: Howland, will you teach us how they pray on the Isle of Faces?
Brandon: Aye, sing one for me, will you? For all promised men! Tell the gods, I want no sign of their plans. No, let me live in ignorant bliss. Tell them, if marriage must be the end of love, then I welcome Hoster's blade sooner than Catelyn's bed!
(The Stark siblings all howl and share a group hug)
Brandon: Ashara! ASHARAAAA!!! (Runs off)
Lyanna: Men… you are made such fools by your loins. Robert's the same, isn't he? He'll never keep to one bed. I hear he's gotten a child on some girl in the vale. It's true, isn't it?
Ned: What Robert did before the betrothal is of no matter. He's a good man and true, and he'll love you with all his heart.
Lyanna: Love is sweet, dearest Ned, but it cannot change a man's nature. Would that it could! The whole world would be made anew. (Pause) Remember Old Nan's tales? We’d act them out with sticks for swords. Always in those tales, I imagined myself a knight, not a wife in a tower nursing some lord's heir. Must that be the only role that I get to play?
Ned: What part's been written for me? You’ll marry Robert. Brandon will be Lord of Winterfell. Benjen will one day go to the Wall.
Benjen: I will not!
Ned: A pitiful destiny, but a destiny nonetheless. What of me? Should I listen to the pup and enter the lists? A mystery night, risking all for a white cloak… What was I made to be?
Lyanna: (Smiles, puts her hand on Ned’s shoulder) A Father.
Bran (Ned’s son)’s voice: Father!
(Scene ends)

Yapping opini daur ulang karbit kekgini untuk ngomentari SasuSaku daripada bikin tweet list greenflag ala Naruto ke istrinya😭😭🤣🤣 bikinlah tweet 1000 greenflag Naruto ke Hinata termasuk yg Naruto bilang "ambil uangku sayang belanja wagyu" juga ya itu greenflag banget loh
(After Rhaegar sings the Song of Ice and Fire in High Valyrian)
Brandon: What the fuck was that about?
(Lyanna sniffles)
Benjen: Lyanna? Are you crying?
Lyanna: No.
Benjen: Because of a song?
Lyanna: Shut up, Benjen!
Benjen: You might mislike dresses and want to fight with the boys, but you can be such a girl at times!
(Lyanna throws her drink at Benjen)
———
(During a later scene; Lyanna, Benjen and Howland are returning to the feast with drinks)
Benjen: Where’s mine?
Lyanna: You’re wearing it.

Benjen: I knew you'd make us late, Lyanna.
Brandon: Oh, she needed time to look like a woman. She almost managed it.
Ned: Leave her alone, Bran.
Brandon: (Taking off Lyanna’s fur cloak) She just needs to undo this, and she will…
Lyanna: I swear, I will cut your throat with a butter knife!
(A Night’s Watchman walks across the stage)
Brandon: Look, Benjen, a wandering crow. You should enlist!
Lyanna: Don't be a monster.
Brandon: Go to the Wall. There's enough peach fuzz on your chin for them to call you a man of the Night’s Watch.
Ned: There's no shame in taking the black, Bran. Those men have guarded the realm for generations.
Brandon: From what, winter? Armies of dead from Old Nan's tales? No, the Wall isn’t peopled with honorable soldiers, they’re thieves and rapers with frostbitten balls.
Benjen: What else can I do? We can't all inherit Winterfell!
Brandon: Aye, but try sleeping with a woman, Benjen, before you swear it off whenever. Whelp a Snow or two!
Howland: What does that mean? Whelp a Snow?
Lyanna: It's what they call their bastards. They can't take their father's name, so they go by Snow.
(Ashara and her ladies cross the stage, giggling. She and Brandon exchange a look and smile as she walks past)
Brandon: Speaking of whelping a Snow…
Lyanna: You’re betrothed!
Brandon: Aye, but not married yet!
Lyanna: Must all men be beasts? (To Ned) Which is my future husband?
(Robert emerges from a group of men with his pants down and a wine-stained shirt, laughing)
Ned: Uhhh… I'll introduce you later.
