Is it confirmed from D&D that there will be no LSH?

better than introducing a fake arya, imo.

It has to be some one that:
-show watchers care about
-reek cares about
-jon snow cares about


But it's really stupid. If Ramsay treats Sansa anywhere in the ballpark as he treated Fake Arya, then that is something just horrible I don't want to see Sansa go through. For fricks sake, Ramsay made her have sex with his dogs.

Fake Arya shows how monstrous Ramsay and Littlefinger truly are, provides an honest chance of redemption for Theon, and Jon is actually more emotionally invested in the thought of Arya than he would be in Sansa. Sure you've got a point with the Hodors, but that's about it.

I actually like where the show is going more than the books. But, the book series is still my favorite series of all time, so I'm equally excited for future books as I am for future HBO season.

And I hope the show and the books go in vastly different directions because it's sort of fun being a HODOR all of the sudden when you've been a Maester the entire time.

Wait what? I must have skimmed over that.

I assumed the show invented Ramsay's GF to fill the fake Arya role. If not, she's definitely going to play some part in the Ramsay/Winterfell story. They didn't just conjure her up so we could look at more boobies.

They're probably trolling book readers.

Are you sure about that?


But didn't he have girlfriends in the books as well? I thought that was how he named his dogs.

If by "girlfriends," you mean girls he hunted for sport, raped, flayed and killed, then yes. Those are who the dogs are named after.

In context of show why did Varys go from wanting Dany killed to helping her?

I think he didn't like what he saw in Jeoffrey and saw that Cersei wasn't going to relinquish power without a sword to the face. Things were fairly peaceful under Robert but went to shite QUICKLY and didn't look to improve once the Lannisters took charge.

I think after Robert died, Varys could see that Joffrey and Cersei in charge of the realm was a really bad idea. I don't think he hated Dany before, he just wanted to help keep things in order with Robert at the helm. But I have to wonder what Illyrio thought about his friend Varys trying to kill Dany...

What if LF is bringing Sansa to Dorne? She would be safe there and maybe he could get Cersei's daughter's betrothal voided and put Sansa with one of the Dorne princes. That would be a powerful alliance against the Lannisters.

I just wanted to post this in remembrance, since HBO is apparently cutting Lord Too-fat-to-sit-a-horse from the show.


quote:

“Foes and false friends are all around me, Lord Davos. They infest my city like roaches, and at night I feel them crawling over me.” The fat man’s fingers coiled into a fist, and all his chins trembled. “My son Wendel came to the Twins a guest. He ate Lord Walder’s bread and salt, and hung his sword upon the wall to feast with his friends. And they murdered him. Murdered, I say, and may the Freys choke upon their fables. I drink with Jared, jape with Symond, promise Rhaegar the hand of my own beloved granddaughter…but never think that means I have forgotten. The north remembers, Lord Davos. The north remembers, and the mummer’s farce is almost done. My son is home.”

While I agree about the Sansa marriage arc being dumb as hell OM, what in the heck are you talking about with that last part? His dogs are female for one thing, and I've read that book multiple times and never saw that.


ETA:

NVM, I see the part you are talking about now, though it's ambiguous as to whether he was trying to make it happen or it already had.

I just don't see Petyr letting Ramsey marry Sansa, and live to reap the rewards from it.
