    himself fucker.
    -Tywin knows about Dany by way of his grandson king by way of his advisors who knew and informed boisterous baratheon of her pregnancy.

    -Sansa being raped would be awesome.

    -Robb's romance is lame because that bitch acts too good for Robb. "Oh, you're waging a war against the kingdom to save you sisters and avenge your father? You're such a child. What will you do when you win?" Bitch, the kingdoms were run serviceably by a Mad King, a fat drunk, and now a twisted little shit, I think Robb can handle the administrative duties of the North.

    -Stannis is sweet because he's a true Baratheon.

    -Also, the end game of Lannister+Baratheon+Stark v Dany would be awesome but I don't get the sense that this story is working towards an end game. Maybe I'm projecting from The Wire where everyone just is and does as they do and the story moves along driven by everyone living out their days, the same could occur in this tangled political mess. The war can settle to a long, dragged out affair that leaves thousands in famine and strife, and westeros just becomes a shittier world to live in and the story ends after each character from the original book has fallen. The only thing that changed was the carnage kicked up over a fight for a throne that kings don't really seem to enjoy and probably can't hold without overwhelming military strength.

    That is the impression I am getting more and more. Rather than working towards something, it looks to be more just a retelling of a passage of the history in this fictual fantasy world. I really like this, but didn't expect it from the way season 1 started.
