So is anyone reevaluating that Cersei and Jaime may be Aerys children after the Aerys chapter in AWOIAF? Really seems some suspicious shite was going on between him and Joanna shortly before their birth.


The World of Ice and Fire actually had a little snippet regarding this.

quote:

The scurrilous rumor that Joanna Lannister gave up her maidenhead to Prince Aerys the night of his father's coronation and enjoyed a brief reign as his paramour after he ascended the Iron Throne can be safely discounted. As Pycelle insists in his letters, Tywin Lannister would scarce have taken his cousin to wife that had been true, "for he was ever a proud man and not one accustomed to feasting upon another man's leavings". It has been reliably reported, however, that King Aerys took unwonted liberties with Lady Joanna's person during her bedding ceremony to Tywin's displeasure. Not long thereafter, Queen Rhaella dismissed Joanna Lannister from her service. No reason for this was ever given, but Lady Joanna departed at once for Casterly Rock and seldom visited King's Landing thereafter.

I think Joanna told Rhaella that Aerys raped her, and she feels certain that the pregnancy was caused by him and not Tywin, and had to get out of King's Landing as soon as possible in order to make sure the shite didn't completely hit the fan.

Plus, as I read, Aerys was incredibly pissed when Jaime and Cersei were born, and lashed out at his wife and thought that all the miscarriages were because of her and her sleeping with others in the castle. If he knew the twins were his, I think he may have been nuts enough to assume that his seed was too strong for miscarriages.
