Ok they just responded: Elio and Linda posted:@WarsofASOIAF Basically just the sudden burgeoning appearance of Alayne's sexuality, and that that focus happesn w/o reference to a certain character I wasn't sure who the certain character was but someone suggested Sandor Clegane and now I remember there are a legion of creepy fucks who want Sansa to be with the Hound.

That chapter was awesome, was worried it would be a Areo chapter for some reason.

Now draw the other angle, where it looks like she's making out with a pile of beef jerky.

It's all setup but it doesn't feel like wheel-spinning. I like it. Sansa's cover might be blown with Shadrich the Mad Mouse - he was looking for Sansa in Brienne's Feast story, and his line here about the gold dragons might indicate he recognized her. drat it George, stop making all these minor AFFC/ADWD characters I forgot about relevant.

Also this kinda shows us that Sansa isn't trying to murder/plot to murder SR as she seems to think he will live long enough to get married.

If that's true than why is she still planning on marrying Harry the Heir?

Sixty-four dishes were served, in honor of the sixty-four competitors who had come so far to contest for silver wings before their lord. From the rivers and the lakes came pike and trout and salmon, from the seas crabs and cod and herring. Ducks there were, and capons, peacocks in their plumage and swans in almond milk. Sucking pigs were served up crackling with apples in their mouths, and three huge aurochs were roasted whole above firepits in the castle yard, since they were too big to get through the kitchen doors. Loaves of hot bread filled the trestle tables in Lord Nestor’s hall, and massive wheels of cheese were brought up from the vaults. The butter was fresh-churned, and there were leeks and carrots, roasted onions, beets, turnips, parsnips.  never change, George.

Soup du Jour posted:That was a drat good chapter, and it totally makes sense that it was cut from ADWD considering how much of it was set-up. But apparently this was the 'controversial Sansa chapter', which cements Elio Garcia as a moron in my mind. It was controversial only because GRRM was at full mast with a dab of morning dew erupting from the tip while writing that chapter.

Really? This is pretty tame stuff by his usual standards, I mean, poo poo in the first 10 chapters of the first book a 13 year old gets finger hosed. They're dancing. Anyway it was a decent chapter and it moves the plot along a bit, so that's nice.

We are going to have almost 10 chapters leaked by the time it gets published if they keep doing this. Also, Sansa with an actual personality is such a massive improvement over her character in the early books. I'm actually looking forward to her chapters now, well except for the part with Sweet Robin. That creepy child of the corn can die ASAP Relentlessboredomm fucked around with this message at 20:31 on Apr 2, 2015 |

The way I see it Robin is in the process of getting murdered and Sansa is at the very least an accomplice to the act, she was explicitly told by the maester that giving him all that sweetsleep will eventually kill him yet she urges him to keep drugging Robin. I think that she is deeply in denial about this whole thing, she's even told by Littlefinger that his plans (which she's fully collaborating with) involve Robert dying at some point.

In It For The Tank posted:And there's still this massive emphasis on lemons coming from Dorne that has sprung up in both the books and the show. I don't put much stock in the "Dany grew up in Dorne, not Braavos" theory, basically because I don't know why GRRM would do that, but I can see why people do. I've never heard this one before. Could you expand on this theory? What is it and what impact would it have on the story? I'm assuming there's not much to it except bored fans but I do find endless ASOIAF theorycrafting interesting.

I wonder if Littlefinger will manipulate the tournament to get Harry onto Robin's guard and give Harry the opportunity to off him. Obviously Robin could just seize up and croak one day from poison and no one would suspect he was murdered, but if Littlefinger/Alayne can put themselves in position catch Harry doing him in, they can completely control Harry under the threat of exposing him as a killer.

Basically that Dany didn't grow up where she thinks she did and maybe her background in general isn't what she thinks it is either. It definitely is curious, though I think there's a possibility GRRM just hadn't thought about the weather in Braavos when writing the first book.

-Braavos and the Eyrie are exactly the same distance north of the equator as each other, and the Eyrie imports their lemons. - Arya mentions in AFfC that there are no trees in Braavos. - One of Brienne's AFfC companions asks a riverlands inkeep for duck with lemon and is met with "lemons don't grow this far north". - In ACoK, Dany remembers running up to the red door barefoot. Braavos is a dank, cold lovely place, while Dorne is warm and has nekkid kids all over the place. - B.D.911, JFCMSB

How can there be no tree in Braavos? Braavos is Greenland?

Okay, I got to read the chapter. GRRM has been loving on between this and Merry, the pressure from the TV show is clearly spurring him hard and it's getting great results. I've never liked Sansa more. P.S. quote:“A good melee is all a hedge knight can hope for, unless he stumbles on a bag of dragons. And that’s not likely, is it?”

Yes he do. In AFfC he mentions he's seeking her in exchange for a plump bag of gold from Varys.

whatever7 posted:How can there be no tree in Braavos? Braavos is Greenland? It's because Braavos is an artificial city, where a hundred different tiny isles are connected together by wooden bridges and whatnot. However, it's said that trees are located in the garden of rich and mighty, so it's not impossible for there to be imported lemon trees. It just stands out as peculiar for the lemon tree to be such a prominent icon of Dany's childhood in Braavos when it is more commonly associated with Dorne.

You are probably right and I think at some point Sansa will intervene, it's clear she cares about him and while I do believe Sansa is becoming darker like her siblings she would never willingly kill her cousin, right now she really doesn't want to believe LF wants him dead despite knowing better. In the show it seems LF doesn't give any shits about SR though and is simply dumping him with Royce, so it's pretty interesting to see what will happen.

The Sweetrobin stuff is tricky because the epilepsy is legitimately killing him all on its own. I'm not sure to what extent even Littlefinger is morally culpable there, because at worst it seems like giving opiates to a dude with cancer. He can die horribly or you can overmedicate him and he dies peacefully; you're not exactly a monster for choosing the latter path.

I'm probably wrong but I thought historically epileptic seizures were not an automatic death sentence, provided they had medical care, which SR does. Littlefinger and by extension Sansa are looking out for their own best interests. If that meant keeping SR alive, they would keep him alive. Otherwise, his mom goes, and he's next. They both are well aware that they're slowly killing him with all the medication, anyway.

As usual, motivation matters. While Sansa and/or LF might be telling each other that it will ease his pain, there is no way that that is their primary concern. He's an obstacle and that has to be removed, that's the reason. Nothing more, nothing less.

Linda rates every ep of the show at around 2/10 or 3/10 even some seriously amazing TV like Blackwater and the Rains of Castermere, she's totally delusional and even bashes on stuff GRRM himself says was very faithful to the source and totally awesome or on original stuff he really enjoyed.

The Mercy chapter is like 15 years old. It was originally planned to be Arya's first chapter after the five year time skip. it's gone through a bunch of revisions since then, but it is hella old.
