favourite asoiaf characters; Stannis Baratheon
“I am king. Wants do not enter into it. I have a duty to my daughter. To the realm. Even to Robert. He loved me but little, I know, yet he was my brother. The Lannister woman gave him horns and made a motley fool of him. She may have murdered him as well, as she murdered Jon Arryn and Ned Stark. For such crimes there must be justice. Starting with Cersei and her abominations. But only starting. I mean to scour that court clean. As Robert should have done after the Trident.”
I gotta go with Spotted Sylva. She gets ‘punished’ with being married to Lord Estermont, which Arianne considers a horrible punishment, because for her, it would be. She doesn’t want to marry an old man, so she sees this as awful. But he’s a powerful lord in his own right, her children would be heirs, and as his widow, she could rule his seat for a time. Not that bad a punishment after all.
thenorthdismembers answered your question: Seriously, where do you suppose Lady Stoneheart got the crown of bronze and iron?
Tom O Sevens gave it to her I believe?
She wants her son alive, or the men who killed him dead. She wants to feed the crows, like they did at the Red Wedding. Freys and Boltons, aye. We’ll give her those, as many as she likes.

I don’t have the heart to explain it to them, but maybe this weekend I’ll make a post about it.
“How many boys dwell in Westeros? How many girls? How many men? How many women? The darkness will devour them all, she says. The night that never ends… Great or small, we must do our duty.”
Stannis Baratheon — true heir of Robert, newly-minted believer in R’hllor. Unlike many of the believers in the gods of Westeros, Stannis needed proof before he gave himself to the red god of Melisandre. Now that he’s made that decision, and burned leeches tied to the lives of his enemies, we’ll see how his new faith stands up to reality. That’s a question for the future, however. In the meantime, let’s look at the past.

Gives me major anxiety wrt Martells being cast.
croclock replied to your post: End-area asked: What do you think of the guy they’ve cast as Daario?
i thought he was a terrible actor? i need to rewatch it tho, but my first impression has kinda bad
I have no strong feelings either way. Never cared for the character that much to begin with. The lack of weird blue hair means we won’t get any of Barristan’s sass about him, and does make me wonder about Young Griff going forward. Sendhil Ramamurthy would’ve made a better choice, but, like I said, I don’t really care.
Joffrey calling himself a Lannister, which I don’t believe he ever did in the books.
I HAVE BEEN PLAYING TOO MUCH SKYRIM.
About Kings have no friends.
