If you think that, along the way, you're not going to fail... you're blind.

There's no one I've ever met, no matter how successful they are, who hasn't said they had their failures along the way.

Don't worry, by the time she gets out of Faceless Camp, she'll have a banging rear end and tremendous, firm titties, then all the boys will be up on that and she will finally be appropriate for the genre.

But no boys like Arya though so she can't really be a female role model.

She's only ~11 now. She'll be a stonecold assassin when she grows up.

True story: ASOIAF is a prequel to Charlie's Angels.

Arya will be the butch one.

Jaqen/Syrio is Charlie.

Yes.

Stop trying to remind me because I hear Gendry giggling in GRRM's voice.

Arya achieves her successes by pretending to be male, it's safe to assume that she has an enormous case of penis envy and is probably a raging lesbian, therefore making her actions null and void in the sense of representing "femaledom" :downswords:

Asha needs to be wooed.

A nice horseback ride by the sea. Some pawing and playful touching. A little dirty talk.

Lady Mormont basically pointed at her crotch and grunted. Because GRRM only knows how to write porn-lesbian sex scenes.

No way, if Arya had been a year or two older, GRRM would have her and Gendry gettin' down.
Also when Jon and Dany become man and wife, KING AND QUEEN, Arya will be his second incestuous queen. :colbert:

Calling it right now, this is how the series ends. GRRM was just warming us up to aunt-nephew incest by showing the even grosser-by-comparison brother-sister incest between Jaime and Cersei.

I just googled leaders who married their relatives and apparently Franklin D. Roosevelt married his cousin. Wow, didn't know that :stare:

Joramun posted:

I have to agree with this. She's been the most bloodthirsty 8 year old in any book I have ever read. I mean she stabs a fat kid in GoT, she cuts someone's throat in CoK, and I don't even remember all the poo poo she does in SoS aside from leaving Sandor to (not actually) die but it was probably freaky. That being said of that list, she is the most interesting character (with exception to Katniss because I haven't actually read those books so I can't really judge).

I'd like that.

That's honestly what I expect. He hasn't given himself enough time/space for all the things to happen for a major reversal of fortune, and even if you allow for author fiat, a victory doesn't fit. A recurring theme has been that "usual tropes are always wrong", and the whole "enemies unite to defeat a bigger threat, peace follows" theme is the most hackneyed trope of them all. I expect it will all fall, and the others will convert all of Westros into a land of forever winter. Cue up an epilogue of Eastros a long time after protecting themselves from the Others crossing the narrow sea.
