re: Crackpot ASOIAF Theories SPOILERS

All right its late and its been a long day, but here's my Tyrion is a Targ argument as best as I can make it midnight on a Wed.


Direct:

Genetics work differently in Westeros than they do here. Golden hair is definitive proof that Joffrey, Tommen, and whatshername are Lannister instead of Baratheon. But Tyrion's silvery white hair means nothing? All Lannisters have golden hair, some curly some straight but all golden.

Tyrion had vivid dreams of dragons like the Targs.

It was widely whispered that Lord Tywin was the true ruler under Aerys II but he threw that away over a mild insult? He's too cold and calculating for that. Marriage pacts carry a lot of weight in Westeros but rejected proposals are another matter.

Two characters have mismatched eyes. Tyrion and Shierra Seastar.


Selmy's comments regarding Aery's infatuation with Joanna. (I came to this belief long before ADWD fwiw.)


Indirect:


The kinslayer is cursed by gods and men. This lets Tyrion off the hook.

The affinity of dragon's for the Targ bloodline has been stressed for thousands of pages now. There's a big reveal being foreshadowed here, I feel certain of that. If Aegon is a Blackfyre like most of us seen to think then its not much of a reveal concerning him. Dany feeding Tyrion to a dragon seems to be pretty predictable, (which makes me doubt it just a bit).


Cherry on top:

Does anyone recall Tywin Lannister's dying words?








I'm not claiming any of that as definitive proof, but its not entirely baseless.

My apologies for any errors in spelling or sentence structure. I've had a long day.
