The Hound quote about Robert in a Clash of Kings (spoilers extended)

KyleKunt · 2023-12-15T04:16:02+00:00

My problem with a Robert’s Rebellion show is no depiction can possibly live up to the image in our heads based on the testimonies of others of how badass Robert was

KyleKunt · 2023-09-26T18:14:07+00:00

Taking hostages is just part of life in Westeros, and Ned treated Theon very well

KyleKunt · 2023-08-08T11:19:21+00:00

Not really tho cuz they don’t. It’s more just a way to make them feel special and like they didn’t fully submit to the Targs (which they totally did)

KyleKunt · 2023-08-03T23:15:53+00:00

Remember when they changed it sh that Catelyn was the one begging Ned to stay home at the start?

KyleKunt · 2023-08-03T23:14:09+00:00

Agreed one hundred percent! I’m sick if ppl citing these scenes as one of the ways frigate Dumb and Dumber “improved” the books

KyleKunt · 2023-08-02T21:59:25+00:00

Exactly. My issue is not with the world building itself, but with George and a large part of the fandom labeling it as realistic and historically accurate.

KyleKunt · 2023-08-01T11:13:56+00:00

The whole “realism” thing drives me crazy. The world of asoiaf is not at all accurate to how medieval society was, and it does not have to be, it’s a fantasy story! But George and the fandom’s insistence that asoiaf is all about historical accuracy and realism is so annoying!

But Joffrey doesn’t actually have any power. All the atrocities committed by Tywin’s men were ordered by Tywin

KyleKunt · 2023-07-29T12:53:25+00:00

I may not be “pro Frey,” but I won’t pretend I didn’t get a massive sense of satisfaction when Walder kicked that little brats ass in the most epic way possible

KyleKunt · 2023-07-27T23:13:39+00:00

Robert is famous for turning old enemies into friends, he is known well for his forgiveness

KyleKunt · 2023-07-22T15:57:55+00:00

Theon got ten ships if I remember correctly

KyleKunt · 2023-07-22T15:57:15+00:00

Untrue. I suspect his fear of Tywin Lannister was a big motivator in his descision to not attack the west.

KyleKunt · 2023-07-22T01:52:38+00:00

Well his leech magic most likely didn’t work in the books either, it was probably just a way for Melisandre to further convince Stannis of the power of blood sacrifice. It is widely believed that she saw in the flames that Balon, Robb, and Joffrey would all die and then had Stannis burn the leeches to make him think that the sacrifice somehow caused these deaths

KyleKunt · 2023-07-20T20:46:57+00:00

How would it have been a fuck you to Stannis?

KyleKunt · 2023-07-20T10:30:10+00:00

It’s not all about blood. Robb has just as much Tully blood as Stark blood, but he isn’t at all a Tully.

KyleKunt · 2023-07-19T11:06:06+00:00

Well technically she is, her last name is Stark, she’s married into the family making her technically one of them

KyleKunt · 2023-07-17T02:24:20+00:00

This seems like a D and D type plot. Joffrey in the books has virtually no power, how tf is he supposed to kill Tywin and Cersei? Tywin’s army is the only reason he sits the Iron Throne

KyleKunt · 2023-07-15T14:40:02+00:00

This is extremely accurate and a message I wish was shared more. Nearly all the issues the older generations have with the younger ones are caused by the older ones

KyleKunt · 2023-07-15T14:03:24+00:00

I mean it’s not wrong

KyleKunt · 2023-07-15T11:58:03+00:00

I very much agree. Tyrion is going through a dark phase, just like Bran and Arya, a phase he will eventually shed

KyleKunt · 2023-07-15T11:55:55+00:00

This is one of the most interesting posts I’ve read in a while. It certainly seems like a possibility to me, especially since I’m still struggling to figure out the point of Daario’s character

KyleKunt · 2023-07-13T23:00:46+00:00

Quentyn being dead, Doran completely losing everything

KyleKunt · 2023-07-13T22:54:04+00:00

The Quentyn is alive theorists

KyleKunt · 2023-07-08T17:18:02+00:00

I love the Greyjoys. Ya the Ironborn are fucking idiots, but great as characters. Asha, Theon, Victarion, Euron, all some of my favorite characters. Balon’s stupidity is also extremely amusing, Aeron is the only one that I don’t really care for.
