Least Favorite Characters

[Wil]

but i hope margaery gets a slow and painful death too.

OOh that would be good...

 

[Wil]

Here's a question: Will GM do something very corny and write that her Father gives in and allows her to be "disciplined" by the Faith, "because he's not in a position to stop it," or will he be more realistic, which means Tyrell will go to war and be willing to do anything and sacrifice the entire kingdom rather than see one of his own be punished by his enemies, especially his little precious (add gollum voice)?

 

[Queen Cersei]

i know what i'd like to happen...something along the lines of Margaery getting 'disciplined' slowly and painfully by the Faith, then her family coming to watch and 'accidentally' falling into a bottomless pit, devouring and ridding the world of all tyrell scum.

probably just a pipe dream

 

[Wil]

LOL long time (I did)

 

[Queen Cersei]

I was deadly serious. But thanks all the same

 

[Wil]

lol again. (but not as long as the first time)

 

[Queen Cersei]

Awww, I lost my humourous magic

 

[AryaUnderfoot]

I happen to like Margaery. Much more, in fact, after she calls Cersei a "vile, scheming, evil bitch." Very nicely put. Margaery is everything that Cersei pretends to be.

And the Queen of Thorns is cool, too.

 

[the smiling weirwood]

The Queen of Thorns is the end all, be all of grandmothers. She is one of my absolute favorite characters, along with Doran Martell.

 

[Queen Cersei]

if she were my grandmother i'd happily do a sansa in AGOT

 

[Rosemary]

I have always disliked Cersei...always seems such a cold person and very self centred!

 

[Trey Greyjoy]

Ill vote for Walder Frey & his brood along with Stannis.

 

[the smiling weirwood]

Stannis is really the only character whom I truly dislike. He's the only one I can't empathize with.

You Empathize more with Frey than Stannis?Really?

 

[Queen Cersei]

I have always disliked Cersei...always seems such a cold person and very self centred!

She may seem so, but she's not...

 

[the smiling weirwood]

Yes, but that doesn't mean I sympathize with them. I understand their motivations: greed, petty vengeance, and spite. As for Stannis....I think he must be some sort of robot...a broken one. He has two emotions: anger and impatience. I think he is Dany's foil. He has sought out a great destiny, no matter what he says, if he didn't want it he wouldn't be in the North, now would he? Dany has not, her experiences have been forced on her. Granted, she didn't HAVE to start an army and conquer cities, but what else was she going to do? Learn to be a whore or a fishwife? dany is the real thing, Stannis is just a cheap-ass imitation pretending to royalty. This is all off the topic, so I'll get back on it. Stannis is far too concerned with HIS "rights" instead of the people he just thinks should follow him. He said he's given up pretensions to the throne to hold the Wall, but then why is he so presumptious about ordering about The Night's Watch? He's just an all-around unpleasant person. I can relate to all the other characters and put myself in their heads, but I just can not think like Stannis.

 

[Aegon the Unworthy]

Ya know...I personally enjoy Stannis...Im in the military and quite frankly early in the books he looked like a decent leader...but I think the Big Red M (Melisandre) is doing things with his head. The bit about the Onion Knight and "one good act does not wash away all the rest" was a typical military leaders action. I dont personally like him, but his descent into madness is subtle and interesting to me....

I dont dislike Cersei...her chapters are so interesting to read. She spins everything in her own head its enjoyable to notice all the things she misses. Shes evil and egocentric but sometimes those people make the most interesting people to talk to.

 

[Queen Cersei]

Good on you Aegon, good on you.

 

[AryaUnderfoot]

I'm just waiting for brittle Stannis to break. I mean, in order to be a good leader you have to accept that it's not all black and white. Stannis is the "my way or the highway" type of leader- how many of those are shown to last, in history? He lacks any method or manner of diplomacy. In the Seven Kingdoms, that will be the death of him. He needs to be able to work with many power-hungry men who have their own agendas, but he doesn't see the bigger picture, just the place he wants to be.

 

[TK-421]

If anyone will kill Stannis, it will be Melissandre. Just wait and see. She is alreday having doubts in the Jon preview chapters.
