Did You Think I Would Have Dark Hair? When You Took Alicent Hightower Into Your Bed, Did You Think I

You chafed at being prevented from action. Imagine my lot. I'm a dragonrider as well, with a war being fought over my ascension. And yet, I must wait here, always prudent, sending others to fight and be felled in my name.

By the end of the year she had taken to talking to herself, and had come to have a deep aversion to the color green.

Cooke’s past experience has taught her to seek out happiness, and even peace, wherever she can. More than the bandage-dresses and “paralytic” drinking of her early 20s, she says, she regrets taking herself so seriously. “I just had to grow up so quickly–: I was the only person taking care of me. Now I wish that I could go back and just be like: God, relax.” Hence the regression this summer. “I feel like I’m reliving my early 20s. I just feel so solid in who I am… Weirdly, the older I get, the younger I feel.”
