I have been told a few times (well, so many times really) that I have a kind of "blunt affect" face. It's just my face gdmit! Why do people think it's a problem?
Spoilers!!!!!! So did Arya snapped a face from the House of black and white or did she cut it off from the serving girl at Frey house? Was she the same girl who flirted with Jaime? And Jaime has a lingering look on the girl????
“Always been able to keep myself distant… Divorced myself from… feelings… but look, you see? Body’s betraying me. Interesting, yes? Emotions.”

Rate my squad: INTJ, ESFP x 3
Family is all that matters. MYCROFT willing to sacrifice his life for Sherlock and Sherlock knowing that it's just Mycroft's way of telling him to shoot him. I know their family is really messed up but they still care for each other in their own convoluted way.
“In the end, fate and destiny do not just happen out of coincidence. They are products of earnest, simple choices, that make up miraculous moments. Being resolute, making decisions without hesitation, that is what makes timing. He wanted her more than I did, and I should have been more courageous. It was not the traffic light’s fault. It was not timing. It was my many hesitations.”
1. They’re smart. Really smart.
INTJs tend to be life-long learners who are enthusiastic collectors of knowledge. You may find them reading non-fiction books, watching documentaries or conversing with those who they see as their intellectual equals. In fact, the INTJ is one of two types with the highest college GPA, according to Truity.com. (The other type? The INFJ.)
2. Their intelligence can be a double-edged sword.
INTJs are walking think tanks who streamline the world, writes personality profiler Antonia Dodge, co-owner of Personality Hacker. People of this rare personality type excel at developing long-range strategies, designing complex systems that can be replicated and finding any weaknesses in infrastructure. Unfortunately, our society tends to marginalize problem-solvers who ask us to overhaul the way we do things, because true solutions take time and require a painful transitional period. Living in a world that seems short-sighted can make INTJs jaded and cynical. On the job, they may feel like their true talents are being wasted.
3. INTJs just ‘know’ things.
INTJs use their dominant function, introverted intuition — which is their main way of taking in and processing information — to form impressions and develop theories. This function works passively and subconsciously, which means INTJs often know something without really knowing why or how they know it. This results in sporadic “aha!” moments, as introverted intuition suddenly reveals an idea or connection to them, seemingly out of nowhere. The challenge for INTJs is to translate their amorphous revelations into more rational, communicable forms, writes Personality Junkie blogger Dr. A. J. Drenth.
4. They can be perfectionists.
Valuing quality and accuracy, INTJs strive to constantly increase their competence. They work methodically and systematically on tasks, and they’re often perfectionists with very high standards of performance for themselves and others.
5. As introverts, they need downtime to recharge.
When they get talking about a topic that interests them, INTJs can appear to be extroverts. In reality, INTJs are true introverts who must frequently spend time alone to recharge their “batteries” and do what they do best, which is reflect, analyze ideas and make connections.
6. INTJs think critically and clearly.
People of this personality type tend to thoroughly examine information they receive. They think critically and clearly, and for INTJs, the true test of an idea is if it will work efficiently and effectively in a given context. They are generally quite curious about the world around them and want to know the guiding principle behind what they see. Often they have ideas about how to do something more efficiently, and they’re more driven by outcomes than personal feelings.
7. Female INTJs smash gender stereotypes.
The INTJ personality type is rare, but to be a female INTJ is even rarer — only 1 percent of adult U. S. females identify as an INTJ (3 percent of males are INTJs). Both male and female INTJs tend to be reserved and analytical rather than chatty and emotionally expressive, so female INTJs may feel like they don’t fit the stereotypical expectation of femininity. Friends and family members, who may not fully understand the INTJ personality, may prod female INTJs to “just smile more and loosen up,” or they may question the INTJ’s lack of emotional exuberance. In reality, there is nothing wrong or lacking with the female INTJ’s communication style — instead, it is the natural way for the INTJ to be.
8. INTJs are selective in their relationships.
INTJs value intelligence and authenticity in their relationships, and they are actually much more sensitive than they appear, writes Dodge. For this reason, INTJs are highly selective about the friends or partners they bring into their life. When it comes to romance, INTJs often have clear ideas about what makes for a solid relationship, and they are often unwavering in their pursuit of this ideal, according to Truity.com. They can be almost scientific in choosing a mate, and they often have a rigorous list of requirements their partner must meet.
9. INTJs need partners who give them space.
INTJs make loyal and devoted partners in romantic relationships, but they are highly independent, so they value partners who give them enough space to pursue the interests that are important to them.
10. INTJs may struggle to act.
This is because their dominant function, introverted intuition, is a perceiving function, not a judging function. Perceivers feel more comfortable taking life as it comes, while judgers tend to actively shape their lives, relationships and environments. “More proactive types, such as ENTJs, might even deem them somewhat lazy or apathetic,”writes Dr. Drenth. “But calling INTJs (or INFJs) lazy is to miss the point of what it means to be a Perceiver. Since INTJs’ first and foremost job is to Perceive rather than Judge or act, functioning in a passive mode of perception is actually their most authentic form of ‘work,’ work that can ultimately be of great benefit to society.”
11. Many INTJs have made incredible contributions to society.
According to Truity.com, famous INTJs include Hillary Clinton, Al Gore, Bill Gates, Dwight Eisenhower, Alan Greenspan, Ulysses S. Grant, Stephen Hawking, John Maynard Keynes, Ayn Rand, Isaac Asimov, Lewis Carroll, Cormac McCarthy, and Sir Isaac Newton.
12. Real personal growth happens when INTJs turn their theories into action.
INTJs are wired to be agents of change, so producing ideas and developing theories without actually implementing them feels unsatisfactory. The way INTJs can grow and develop themselves on a personal level is by actually putting their theories to use. “When an INTJ gets into action and begins reaching mile markers, their concepts are no longer abstractions. They can be vetted, improved upon, test/iterated,”writes Dodge. “But most importantly, the INTJ is making an impact on their environment, which may be one of the most satisfying things they experience.”

NTJ refers to ENTJs and INTJs.
You do a cost-benefit analysis on nearly every aspect of your life
You admire people who check you, challenge you, and call you on your shit
You often feel you should have your boss’ or coworker’s job and salary because you’re smarter and more competent
People view you as an overachiever, but you see yourself as an underachiever with still so much more to do
Your introverted friends have summoned you for assistance as their representative, lawyer, or gladiator
You know an idea is stupid and won’t work before everyone else and you’re waiting for them to catch up and realize this too
You have high expectations of other people and often want more for their lives than they want for themselves
You spend half a debate/discussion/conversation conveying your ideas and the other half convincing the other person you weren’t angry this entire time
Small talk is excruciating
The gifts you love the most are the ones you can really use
Are we not going to talk about how easily/coldly Sansa realized and accepted the fact that Rickon is going to die?
Fate surprises you sometimes. I just think you can have a plan in life, a good one, but that plan isn’t necessarily what fate has in store for you. Sometimes what fate thinks you need is so much better than what you had planned.

In the scene where Eurus told Sherlock to play the violin, Sherlock played Bach. However, Eurus wanted him to play "you". This was very interesting because what Sherlock played was Irene Adler's theme from ASiB. Now she deduces that he's had sex ( subtle hint with Irene) just because he played that song. Now in the ending montage (I don't know if this is what they really intended but I want it to be a clue,hahaha) Sherlock texted " You know where to find me- SH"- To whom might this text intended for. My guess is Irene because who does Sherlock text using the initial SH in the show? It's only Irene
