Sansa is beginning to show a lot of strength. I was reading the Chapter where Jeoffrey had people beat her and take her clothes off. WHen i was reading that , it made me think of Dany , she is showing more and more of Dany in herself every chapter. HAving the strength to go on , forcing herself to endure pain(like walking after she was beaten.)I did not like her too much in the being of GOT but now she has become one of my faves. Does anyone think the same

Yes, Sansa is horribly abused and grows, eventually.

But what's an Horrer and why does Sansa have one?

I meant horror lol

I think she will grow. Not giving any spoilers, but I think she will become a very strong character towards the end of the series. A complete reverse of who she is now. I hope anyway.

I thinks so too, she is truly Ned's daughter.

I think Sansa is smarter than people give her credit for. She knows to play the dumb and innocent girl so she doesn't get into more trouble with Joff or Cersei. Plus, there's not much she can do while she's still in Kings Landing. She's definitely become more aware of the world around her, but she can't show it or Cersei will think she's become a threat.

I agree , with the addition that she needs to look dumb so they do not think that shes planing something .

[jessalyn]

Yeah, in Clash of Kings I admired her a *lot*. She seems to continue growing as well as a character consistantly... I quite felt sorry for the poor creature in AGoT and ACoK...

[House Balstroko]

Her character definitely grows a lot here and I hope she'll have a better fate.
Some people say that she is dumb for betraying her father in GOT, but her decision to ask for mercy was the best she could do to help him at that point. She did have blind faith in Joffrey and hoped that since they were engaged he would be honourable to her. The only bad thing she did was side with Joffrey over Arya when they were on the march, although I doubt that would of had much consequence in the long run either way.

I had mixed feelings about her in GOT, didnt like her when i read the book but i loved her when i saw the series lol. she´s gorgeous, so i didnt mind her being a fool. but now that i finished the 2nd i still have mixed feelings. She´s showing to be very strong and intelligent, but that Florian stuff? come one, i just wanted to slap her.

[Crown]

She's one of my favourite characters. At first she looked dumb and naive, but actually she'll grow a very strong woman.

I understand why you feel that way because I feel the same with regard to her love for Jonquil and Florian, but then I remember that she's just a child but just old enough to have some very bad romantic notions in her head! I hope/expect that she'll get past that sort of thinking and learn enough to know that life isn't all about the perfect knights/princes falling in love with the ladies that they're supposed to fall in love with! With that knowledge, she'll probably be losing her innocence so I'm happy to just wait patiently for Sansa to ...grow up ...as she grows older.

I didn't take to Sansa in the beginning either... she infuriated me with her silly notions about Joffrey and how she reacted to her sister but I started warming to her when she had to suffer what happened to Lady and later, when her father was sentenced to death by Joffrey. She didn't deserve either, regardless of what led up to those events. Tough lessons to learn.

[Loose seal]

People sometimes diss Sansa and forget she's a child.
Her head has been filled with stories and songs ever since she was born and she's just starting to realize life is not a song. Yes she's naive and a little dumb sometimes, but she's a 12 years old thrown in a very complicated situation : her father died before her eyes, she feels in part responsible for it, she thinks she's in love with a prince who terrorizes her, she's basically a hostage now and really there isn't much she can do about her situation, except complain about it.

[Drowsey Dragon]

I have great hopes for Sansa and no character has grown more in this series so far than her, except
the dragon queen. For such a young girl, she has gone through hell up to this point. She is a hostage to a complete pyscho path, a wiked queen, in an unknown city with very little information about her family and the war.

She is extremely intelligent and learning how to play the part she has to play to survive. All of her dreams and notions of life have come crashing down on her fast and heavy. I think too many people lose site of how young she is and how sheltered her world was until she reached Kings Landing. I don't think she had ever even left Winterfell before this.

[Xtopher]

Team Sansa.

She goes through a lot on Clash, and i wont even say what happens in Storm, but i can only admire someone who´s life is so broken and still tries to find the good part in it all.

[Wah-Tah]

I do agree that Sansa becomes a lot more likable and sympathetic as the books go on, which I'm quite glad about, because we already have enough women that are quite easy to despise.

I do think that it's depressing that her "fairy-tale" world needs to be shattered to bits and pieces before she is able to come to terms with the reality of her situation. Honestly, that's a harsh growing-up moment right there.

maybe its just because of her auburn hair and blue eye's but i've been thinking of sansa and robb as tullys and jon and bran as starks.  arya and rickon could go either way.

she totally deserved to lose lady.  she sold out her own blood.  there was time to admit she lied before lady was killed.

[sumant30]

You can't compare Danny with Sansa becuase Sansa is responsible for her own fate, as she was the own who betrayed ned's plan to queen so that she may get precious joffrey's children in her belly.While danny is fighting against all odds and has shown all the qualities of queen.

She could turn into a Cersei.... wouldn't that be some shit....  so messed up in the head that she acts on pure emotion and buried rage....
