Wait. Tywin was already dying when Tyrion showed up?

I'm pretty sure the Red Viper had already poisoned Tywin prior to the crossbow.Pretty much everything that Ladytiger said, plus Oberyn gives thanks to Cersi for blaming Tyrion, “Who knows more of poison than the Red Viper of Dorne, after all?” Plus the Red Viper doesn't go to Tyrion until after he had a private supper with Tywin& Mace.



It didn't seem like Varys wanted him to go, but then pretty much the only weapon that Tyrion could have used just happened to be there. Not to mention Shae was also there.
