Re: Sansa Player in training or pawn

Well, how about that, a Sansa thread magically appears.

You may also want to check out this thread where 162 posts later, there are 2 camps: those who dislike Sansa and see her as dumb plaything for Littlefinger and those who think Sansa has learned alot about the real world and is poised to do something great.

Re: Sansa Player in training or pawn

Or a dumb pawn, who accididentaly plays a bit as well and haphazardly does something important.

You know i find it a bit sad as well, that she was forced to change, i mean yes there are many reasons to dislike her, for wich i do dislike her most days, but there is also a part where you feel sad that she is forced to chenge, that she is not longer that dreamlike acting princess, who you have to admit in real life you'd at times wish to slap and curse but also at times wish to protect and cherish.

Re: Sansa Player in training or pawn

I believe Sansa is here to learn littlefingers plots and make some of her own, She isn't stupid any more, she is just confused. But she is Stark, and they never forget!!! MWAHAHAHA!!!

Re: Sansa Player in training or pawn

I like your mwhaha too, Ston. It's a good mwahaha.

Sansa is not a Stark. Sansa is a Tully. I have said this so many times I'm going to have to start copy and pasting it.

Weasel Soup, theory. Theory. Really my dear, I've long since given up on kiwi an Ston, but you? Don't abandon me to the big bad illiterates...

Re: Sansa Player in training or pawn

Especially with Sansa being more Tully than Stark, she could become a formiddable player of the game. Catelyn, as much as people don't like her, and aside from her one truly greivous error in kidnapping Tyrion, is a least a capable player of politics.
However all of Catelyns moves failed eventually as she was playing a rather limited game of protect the family. To properly do that you have to play bigger.
Sansa, should she prove an apt pupil and absorb Littlefinger's political accumen, would more than likely play a much nastier game... hiding behind her innocent, pretty face, she could be very good at that.

Yes, I'd like to see her put one over Cersei, although that is proving to be getting easier, if Cersei's time in office is anything to go by.

What I find interesting about Sansa is how much other characters project onto her. It wasn't hard to see how besotted she was with knights and romance, but the rest of her true desires and independent thoughts remained hidden from everyone. Which is possibly what Sandor saw, and what fascinated him so.

Many other people used her as a blank slate for what they desired or hated.
F'r'instance, Cersei dismissed her as a stupid noble girl, fit only for breeding and polite conversation. Cersei felt this was her exact opposite, but also feared that she herself was destined to be forced into that role, by her arranged marriage(s), her fathers (and Jaime's) contemptuous treatment, and societies views on women.
So I hope we get to see more of who Sansa 'really' is.

Re: Sansa Player in training or pawn

1) I love you but you can't spell.

2)Sansa was Stark until Lady died. Now she is Tully.

3)Home. Haven't got broadband here, and besides, Nan's been in hospital so Mum has been spending a lot of time on the phone, which prevents me from making an appearance.

4) Roll on ADWD.

5) Happy New Year!

Re: Sansa Player in training or pawn

  • Thank you, I know.
  • Sansa never was really Stark, she was always to lady...like a Tully, she couldn’t say the truth to Robert about Jeffry and because of that she lost Lady. She must remember she is Stark so she can survive, or she will be pawn for rest of her life.
  • I hope your Nan is better now.
  • tell that to rrmartin

Re: Sansa Player in training or pawn

The Blackfish is also a Tully...and he's on his way back to the Vale where he will meet up with his niece. Boaz, help me out here. I kind of burnt out my few remaining brain cells over the holidays and can't really expand on this theory.

MW....oh, sorry, is this still allowed?
