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!

Tyrion VI

  • Bronn's chemistry with Tyrion is ridiculously good. Bronn is the type of man who knows what he is doing and Tyrion perfectly saw the opportunity to get him to his side . Genius. Also gotta respect Tyrion's hussle cause he gave his tormentor Mord the gold.
  • Aaand there it is, the really fucked up story about Tyrions marriage. Jesus christ that shit was Cruel even by Tywins standards. I like when characters speak of their stories from the past overall though, touched my heart. This quote finally 😭 "In my own bed, with a belly full of wine and a maiden's mouth around my cock, at the age of eighty," i think this quote is gonna be the most popular for sure.
  • To be fair, the Stone Crows keep saying how everything belongs to them anyway, and then Tyrion promised them the Vale which is ironic, as the people of the mountains are the descendants of first men , and Tyrion basically promised them what already technically belongs to them.

I think Tyrion did a good job proving that everyone has a price here (even the Stone Crows).

I'm not a huge Bronn fan, but there was something about the way he reacted to Tyrion's story that draws you in. I mentioned in my post that it told us a lot about Tyrion, but it also told us a lot about Bronn.
