    Should my chapters be fixed or variable length?

    Filler is a bad idea. If you're only putting it there to give the illusion of content then it should be cut away. That being said background information, conversations, scene setting are not really filler if they do their job and tell the reader what they need to know. Though don't info-dump.

    Well it's where the River joins. The Red Fork and Tumblestone make up the Trident where they join so I'd consider them all different. Effff. Milkwater. I should have known that. Oh wait, Tumblestone? Or how about greenblood in Dorne too.

    As long as it's not Spartans I'll be happy. I hate spartans. All of them. I am sick to death of hearing about them. Alternatively you could always used acronyms which as a rule always sound cool. Special Tactics and Reconnaissance. STAR. That's cool right?
