First of all, I would like to say congratulations on getting a dramaturgy internship. Being a theatre person myself I know how hard those things can be to get so, good luck and keep dreamin'!
That said, it was really between Greyjoy and Targaryen, for me. The reasons for Targaryen are because you like to travel instead of stay in one place the Targs were the whole kingdom conquerors (admittedly this works for Grejoys too since they sail and all, but my first thought was, because you admit to being both prideful and isolated which sooo traits of the Dragons, don't you think? I also think your paranoia and thrist for knowledge can work for a Targ as well your happiness that you "didn't go nutso and causing massive bloodshed" (which a Greyjoy may have taken pride in doing...)Still, there are massive Greyjoy leanings here, as well. The travel love, obviously, and the picking of pleasure last (the Greyjoy lifestyle just seems so much more austere than any of the other houses to me). Your traits seem like they can work for both houses, but abrasive seems to be a particularly Greyjoy one, doesn't it? Perhaps it was just a more violence oriented application (not that you describe yourself as being violent but you do describe violence quite a bit, the nutso bloodshed part, kicking the genie in the face, etc.) and I think that works for both houses, but particularly for Greyjoy. The Dragons want to rule and will kill you for defying them. The Krakens may actually just want to kill you and defying them seems like a good enough excuse as any. Oh, dear. These are both such good houses for you. You certainly sound like you look more like a Greyjoy (darker hair, even if you dye it) and you do love Euron but I'm going to have to go with Targaryen because of the brilliant/crazy feel to the application and the fact that you love Ned and Davos, who are more idealistic characters and fit closer to the Targaryen mind set than the Greyjoys (who would actually kill those guys)
