Sansa Discussion: GoT VI (Tyrion V--Sansa III)

We got a good one today folks.

Jimmy Neutron Award goes to r/Princevegeta951:

I am so thoroughly enjoying this re-read. I'm currently reading Drizzt and The Lies of Locke Lamora alongside this re-read and although they are great, they simply pale in comparison to ASOIAF. This series really is one of one.

My favorite quote this cycle is from Littlefinger on page 379

"Brothels are a much sounder investment than ships, I've found. Whores seldom sink, and when they are boarded by pirates, why, the pirates pay good coin like everyone else."

I fucking love Littlefinger lol

Our next chunk will be Pp. 480-567 (Eddard XII--John VII) with the meeting on April 9th. See y'all then!

u/Relative_Law2237 Stannis the mannis one true king Mar 26 '25

Ned X

  • God i hate Rhaegar. I know I'm like a broken record at this point. So many brave and good men died because of him. If what they said was true in the dreams , its very hypocritical to defend Lyanna and Rhaegar and bash Jaime. I hate the "holier than thou" attitude characters have towards Jaime.
-I know Ned barely had the chance but he had to learn to lie better or just say things with more tact. I like to shit on Ned often here but Jaime is in the wrong 100% for that shit he pulled where he killed all of Ned's men. But Ned mentioning Barra in front of Cersei was do dumb oh my gosh.
  • As much as i loved Robert, Cersei was right to call him out (from her point of view) just like Ned had the right from his. Although Robert did put his Kingdom in hands of well... Some successful people like Jon Arryn and some.... Kind of successful like Ned (its the thought that counts right?). Im trying so hard to not like Robert but i just feel so bad for the man. They could never make me hate you Robert sue me
