    Also, it was a lot more about his actual love for Renly than just banging dudes out.

    So theory on reddit that Sansa will take Jeyne Poole's place this season. Jives with everything that's been said so far, even by Sophie Turner, that this season is rough on Sansa and there's an especially traumatic scene.

    This is going to be hard to stomach if true, it's rough to give a character that much shit luck and never kill it off. Only way I could handle it is if it meant Stannis taking Ramsey's head.

    if Littlefinger gives her over knowingly he will quickly become one of the most despised characters on television.

    That's what I was saying. That's definitely going down. Theon is going to have to watch her get painfully screwed by Ramsey. What's more messed up is that the other Vale lords know who she is for real too. I assume they are staying out of the war so who cares though.

    Who's idea was it to send Jeyne in the books. On the plus side, we do get to see a sex scene involving Sophia Turner so I imagine I will still be able to fap to it.

    It doesn't make sense in terms of a power play unless LF thinks Stannis is done for. He gives away his one Northern bargaining chip to the family that killed her mother, so that's not going to gain a lot of support. Unless he marries her off as his daughter and just says fuck the Vale lords who know it's Sansa and now he's part of the North himself by marriage.

    That would essentially make more sense I suppose. Kills Sansa Stark because who the fuck are the Starks now and puts him with a little more power. Plus it is like a reverse Jeyne thing, but Theon story just goes the same route.

    I think it was Cersei or Tywins. She was still imprisoned in kings landing after Ned was beheaded. They figured the Boltons wouldnt know the difference.

    Yeah I think it was Tywin's. They'll just swap her with Alyanne and move along. He couldn't marry Sansa because she's married and wanted by Cersei so just toss them his bastard daughter's cooze for some more power and be done with it. Nobody can say shit because that would null the marriage and Bolton's rule so even if someone knew her they couldn't say anything.

    Pretty sure you're right, it was Cerei. I remember Jamie saying in one of his chapters "sending Jeyne was one of Cersei's better ideas".

    I think the Boltons know..just don't care.

    yeah, but I'm talking about the show though. They could just have her end up the same way in the books just without the whole virgin thing. Just make the pink letter her instead of Arya if they figure it out. At this point, books be damned.

    His daughter is married to the heir of Winterfell and grandfather is Warden of the North. Get Cersei to legitimize her before the wedding. Now he'd have the Vale and an alliance with the South and North as well.

    the lords of the Vale would unite against him the second he aligns with the Boltons and gave Ned Stark's daughter over to a monster like Ramsey. he'd be fucked. that would never work.

    and once he gives Sansa over the Boltons have zero use for him.

    lmao why are you guys trying to rationalize show decisions. Tywin was 2 feet from Arya for weeks and she had a FM in her employ and they wrote it off as "herp derp forgot". even GRRM writes tons of shit that makes little sense. stop trying to make sense of it all.

    if Sansa ends up married to Ramsey it's because that's how they wanted it.

    Not sure about that. Its more that the Boltons would care. The person doesn't matter, their claim does. Just like it doesn't matter that Joffrey or Tommen is a bastard. What matters is that people believe they're the rightful king regardless of whether they really are or not.

    This is what I see the most. I talk with one of my co-workers and always refer to her as Dany and he never knows who I'm talking about. I ask him what he calls her, khaleesi? He says "I guess I don't really call her anything"

    Same with me and co-workers. They know absolutely no ones name and so when I'm talking about it they just give me a puzzled look.

    "Yea when Jorah........."

    "Who?"

    "Danys right hand man"

    "Dany?"

    "The Mother of Dragon's friend zoned guy."

    "OHHHHHHHHHHH"

    Some kind of entertainment show was on the other day and they had an interview with her and the fucking host goes "coming up next we have Emilia Clarke, who plays Khaleesi on Game of Thrones." I wanted to punch him in the throat.

    He comes to get her back as part of his plan, killing Boltons along the way. Sansa then says fuck you and kills him.
