And there's also this quote from Genna to Jaime in the Riverlands:
quote:

Jaime, sweetling, I have known you since you were a babe at Joanna's breast. You smile like Gerion and fight like Tyg and there's some of Kevan in you, else you would not wear that cloak...but Tyrion is Tywin's son, not you. I said so once to your father's face, and he would not speak to me for half a year

Very compelling. Who, in your opinion, will be dragon riders?

Very good argument. I could counter by saying that in many ways, children become like their parents because of how they are raised...not because of DNA. I do admit, however, that Tyrion is mentally more like Tywin than the twins. There is no doubt about that. I'm not sold on the Tyrion is a Targaryen argument necessarily, but I definitely think he's the third dragon.

Yes! This is part of what I was referencing. I believe Jaimie tells Tyrion when he is releasing him that he is Tywin's true son. While on its surface this appears to be more symbolically that he is most like their father, it certainly could be the puzzle pieces placing Jaimie and Cersei as Aerys children. The Tyrion as his child is almost a red herring to get everyone thinking its him.
