Sansa: They say when two siblings stick together against all odds something evil and vicious will sprout from it.
Joffrey: I don't get it.
Sansa: Exactly.

Sansa didn’t feel horrified at Joffrey’s death and Arya didn’t in her grief still say that a dead Joffrey won’t bring her brother Robb back for y’all to revel in violence and miss the point of the books that badly.

Not Arya, Robb, and Jon catching strays for not "warning" Sansa about Joffrey?? As though they didn't all meet him at the same time and have equal opportunity to understand what he was like?? It just blows my mind that somehow everybody can be blamed for her actions regarding Joffrey but Sansa herself. Apparently, she can't be expected to understand anything because nobody sat down and slowly explained everything to her using small words (not even when Ned does just that lol). And then they just ignore the fact that Sansa had a crush on Joffery and actively wanted to marry him? To the point of excusing his behavior when she witnessed his cruelty first-hand? Then they pretend that she was just "coping" with her engagement when she actively argued against Ned breaking it and went to Cersei because she thought she could stop him from doing so. There's no way they like her actual character if this is what they have to come up with to cope with her writing.

I can't wait to see rheenyra get eaten by the beautiful golden dragon 🥰🥰, not before she's crowned the worst shit to ever happen to the Targeryan dynasty, of course. Unless, obviously, they change that shit too because that's the only way to make her anything above a turd and her retarded ass kissers feel anything but worthless in their lives, for once.
Thank you for your support, anon! I congratulate you for Aegon's grand prize of being listed amongst one of the worst monarchs Westeros has ever seen, part of a grand line up!
(AWoIaF -- Targayren Kings -- "Aegon IV")
btw, Grandmaester Keath wrote that for his book, Lives of Four Kings. A very well loved and admired piece of history for several years and several characters.
Wow, Aegon was "grasping"? Never would have known this was his legacy! How glorious. So accomplished & glorious, in fact, that the series have already made a point to mark his similarity to Joffrey Baratheon!
(A Storm of Swords -- Sansa IV):
Especially this:
(A Storm of Swords -- Tyrion VIII):
That is an accolade only a man as exceptional as Aegon could ever achieve. 💞💖 It's also good, since he has no heirs or lineage to carry on his legacy, either and the best Targ does not come from his loins but Rhaenyra's. But at least he was a man, right?

got to Sansa II in AGOT and one of the noticeable themes here isn't just sansa determined to see the beautiful song that she was promised and deliberately trying her hardest not to see the monstrous reality she glimpsed on the kingsroad - there's also the theme that every male presence that directly interacts with sansa in this chapter isn't really interacting with her herself. they're projecting their own internal images on her.
joffrey is treating her with courtesy and impressing her, but it's clear after his parents' public fight that he's doing this because he's supposed to. sansa is even afraid of him at first, and the fear comes back after that. joffrey will treat His Betrothed well, but when he's reminded that it's sansa, it sours.
petyr is thrown right back into his childhood, his humbert-esque excuse of his lost annabelle catelyn, and he's clearly projecting that all over sansa.
loras is overcompensating heterosexuality so hard, he names a twelve year old girl the most beautiful maiden!! and this is a lie, it's a performance, and sansa doesn't know this yet.
and sandor clegane is projecting his anger, his hurt, his trauma, all over a twelve year old girl who is scared and nervous, because she won't look at his face. he's determined to make her hurt for the way she reminded him of his own reality.
all four of these figures have power over sansa. they have the ability to make her hurt if they want to or to be benevolent kind figures, but that's just it - the choice isn't sansa's, it's theirs. sansa's safety is in jeyne and septa mordane, and it's only upon losing them that she is terrorized fully. two of the figures are grown ass men just having a blast creeping out a twelve year old girl (extra props to clegane for intentionally making her cry, what a good person)!!
sansa is already tangled up in this web and she's barely arrived. it isn't her fault, and no twelve year old on the planet could have capably extricated themselves from this (I'm not entirely sure I could have when I was twenty-two), but it's so heartbreaking to watch.

A Game of Thrones, Arya II
Sansa’s eyes had grown wide as the plates. “A tourney,” she breathed. “Will we be permitted to go, Father?”
“You know my feelings, Sansa. It seems I must arrange Robert’s games and pretend to be honored for his sake. That does not mean I must subject my daughters to this folly.”
“Oh, please,” Sansa said. “I want to see.”
Septa Mordane spoke up. “Princess Myrcella will be there, my lord, and her younger than Lady Sansa. All the ladies of the court will be expected at a grand event like this, and as the tourney is in your honor, it would look queer if your family did not attend.”
Father looked pained. “I suppose so. Very well, I shall arrange a place for you Sansa.” He saw Arya. “For both of you.”
“I don’t care about their stupid tourney,” Arya said. She knew Prince Joffrey would be there, and she hated Prince Joffrey.

Defending Sansa online to dumbass and misogynistic TikTokers is not enough, I need a gun. I swear, this entire series has exposed how stupid this fandom actually is.

that post about asoiaf artwork and dark skin makes me think about those ar/ya stans on here that threw a bitch fit in the last few days over some artists drawing her with 'darker' skin while drawing Sansa with lighter skin. so they accused the artists of racism while simultaneously implying that ar/ya looks worse in the artwork as opposed to Sansa because the artist gave her darker skin......which is literally racist and colorist as shit? honestly can't imagine stanning a 10 year and being this weird and bitter on tumblr dot com but anyway
that is INSANE OMG i’m glad i missed that completely
It’s like yeah sure, i think when george was coming up with the “northern look” that northern “coloring” he was thinking of was more similar to the way that like, a lot of welsh people have dark hair and a sort of, olive-tan coloring to their skin (think catherine zeta jones or ioan gruffudd) that makes them look darker than your average brit but usually in a “maybe they’re spanish?” kind of way rather than a “that’s a person of color” kind of way.
but death of the author, first of all, and second of all, depending on what your baseline is, “darker” coloring can look way darker in my imagination than in yours! and that “northern” coloring is vague enough that like, there’s a lot of poc who see parts of themselves in northern culture and explore that, and the Joy Of Reading is that we all see these characters differently!! me going “the starks are indigenous it’s the law” has no actual consequences for the series, someone else’s reading experience, or the fandom at large!! you can literally just block and move on if you’re that dedicated to being a loser weirdo?!?
also it’s funny that her fandom, specifically, is a breeding ground for the worst, most blatantly bigoted takes in the fandom aksjd like people will be like “oh arya is better than the other girls” arya actually loves and supports other women in canon “arya is the prettiest actually” arya herself doesn’t care about being pretty in canon “arya is gonna be a princess in a pretty castle and marry a lord” arya in canon explicitly says she doesn’t want to do that tho “arya is my lily white fave” one of arya’s besties is dornish icon edric dayne be SILENT ON WHAT ARYA IS BC U JUST WANT HER TO BE EXACTLY WHAT SHE HATES.

“That would be like blaming her for something Arya has done”
On one hand, this is what she think happened at the Trident (it wasn’t, the person fully responsible for the trident was Joffrey) but also it’s kinda funny that it really doesn’t occur to her that she is doing the exact same thing to Arya since the trident. Blaming her for something the Lannisters did.

“the same ones who say this come up with THE most misogynistic takes in this fandom and I'm supposed to be taking them seriously” they’re also the ones who blabber about people ‘hating’ s*nsa when the story has war criminals and rapists and then you go to their profiles and they’re… stanning the war criminals and rapists!? these people adore characters like st*nnis and j*ime but they’ll bring up the geneva convention when it comes to dany & arya.
Literally...Jaime, Theon, The Hound, Stannis etc. get so much more grace and kindness than Dany and Arya. Everyone roots for their redemptions and wants happy endings for them but when it comes to these two young female characters suddenly they're "too far gone" and have no chance of a good ending. People literally fantasize about them getting narratively punished. Male characters always get to be flawed, but good in a way female characters are never allowed to be. Meanwhile, if a female character isn't 100% pure and docile then people don't think they deserve anything.

𝐥𝐨𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 : the workspace of the royal seamstress, the red keep, king’s landing, the crownlands.
𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐞 : tenth day, mid year, 300 a.c.
𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 : sansa stark ( @gentlewlf ).
though the similarities between the cousins began and ended with their shared name, there was still an element of reverence that was owed to house baratheon of dragonstone due to their close relationship to the crown ─ it was a relationship that could only grow more distant with time as the shared blood between the brothers would be stretched with the addition of new families to the royal family but knowing the truth behind their ❛ cousins ❜ parentage, shireen understood that the continuation of the legitimate line of house baratheon depended on them and their uncle renly, if he ever married. their mother had insisted on digging out an old dress from her time in highgarden for them to wear in the hopes that a bejeweled frock might distract a man from their unsightly scarring but all that the dress had succeeded in doing was making them look like a child in their mother’s clothing and they found that they could do without the additional scrutiny that the dress brought them.
( the dress had since been kept in their trunk but the queen mother had sent one of her maids to look through their things that morning and the woman had tsk’ed loudly, decreeing that one dress was simply not enough to last through the entire week of festivities and that the one that they had already worn was considered obsolete in fashion, too outdated for a cousin of the king. )
with only ten days left to the start of the celebrations, they had been dragged into the makeshift workspace of the royal seamstress, stepping over rolls of fabric to get to the small dais where they now stood. the woman, after she had gotten over her fear of accidentally brushing against their scarred neck, had been relentless with her measuring tapes and pins and color charts ─ she was currently holding up a mustard yellow against their face, squinting to decipher if the color was complimentary or not, when shireen had grunted in protest, shifting slightly as a pinned poked their side. ❝ good woman, i’d rather not look like a trussed up pig, if you please ! it’s not like i need any more reason for someone to stare. ❞ the seamstress turned away with a loud huff, stomping rather impolitely to the back rooms to, hopefully, find a better fabric when the shuffling of feet met their ears. awkwardly hobbling on the dais until they could turn to face the entrance, they made a small noise of surprise at the person who stood behind them, cheeks coloring slightly in embarrassment.
❝ lady sansa ! are you here to check on your wedding dress ? i fear i may have frustrated the seamstress by being a wiggling, impertinent child, as she called me. ❞ they had been successful, thus far, in avoiding the unfortunate bride - to - be, though their reluctance to hold a polite conversation with sansa stark had nothing to do with the woman herself but rather with joffrey, who they were determined to evade for as long as possible. he had never been kind to them, even as children, and while they did not believe that the lady sansa could be as depraved as their not - cousin, shireen did not want a repeat of what had happened the last time joffrey had cornered them, a knife pressed against their scarred cheek in morbid curiosity. ❝ ... apologies if i am cutting into your time with the seamstress. the queen mother does not think my dress is suitable enough for the wedding. ❞ it was more like shireen, themself, was not suitable for the image that needed to be presented to the rest of westeros ─ dark haired and solemn beside a line of glittering, golden lannisters.
