brashcandy Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 I'm going to say that I am completely and 100% against this match up. I am also against Sansa/Sandor too.That's fine, but there's tons of foreshadowing for the latter at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bright Blue Eyes Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 Somewhat below the chance that Melisandre interprets a vision correctly and freely shares all info with everybody. There are literally millions of guys who'd rather feed Tyrion his own cock than see him put it into Sansa. Sansa is a bit more open, she may just kill him instead of torture.

Pellaeon Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 I'm pretty sure, they will find commen ground and stay together, they both are damaged by life and I don't think they are abble to have a normal relationship with somebody who didn't suffer like them.Odds: 99,999% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ser_Patreck Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 Always managing to solicit sympathy for Tyrion even when he is behaving odiously and participating in terrible actions.Such as?Never. I do not support paedophilia.What, is Sansa in Neverland? She can't grow up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pellaeon Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 Never. I do not support paedophilia.So does Tyrion, Sansa will grow up and going to make her own decision, IMO this is the only way this will work for both of them. I doubt Tyrion would just contuine their marriage against her will Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mulled Wino Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 I'm really, really interested in hear about this "Tyrion-favouritism" you speak of.I mean, yes, GRRM said Tyrion was his favorite character (Which is in itself different from "favouritism"), and Tyrion has some plot armor - tough no different than, say, Arya, Jon, or even Sansa herself - but I really can't see this blatant favouritism you speak of.I'll be laughing the rest of the day now.

Light a wight tonight Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 Never. I do not support paedophilia.Which has little to do with things. Sansa is currently of age or nearly so, and by the time Tyrion returns from Essos, if he does, she will certainly be. OP wasn't talking about immediately.

Saci Targaryen Posted August 10, 2012 Author Share Posted August 10, 2012 LOL, the only character who didn't have plot armor was poor old Ned Stark. Everything turned out bad for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woman of War Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 We are discussing the situation after five books now and cannot know anything definite about what will have happened to characters when the last chapters are unfolding, about the protagonists' story and their personal development.Therefore discussing what characters might want or not want - or what we as readers want them to like or dislike - at the present stage of the story is pointless since the author will take the plot exactly where he wants it to go and his creatures will have to follow him and will desire and love exactly the person GRRM wants them to.Everything is wrong about tyrion-sansa. personalities, one's a nice good person, one is far from it. looks, familial problems, anything else you can dream of. And that "everything is wrong" will be exactly the challenge for the author. Since when has Martin been afraid to present a demanding plot to his readers?

Gar Weg Wun Sygerrik Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 I think people get the wrong Idea about GRRM and Tyrion. GRRM says Tyrion is the most fun to write.I don't think he's ever said that he was the most super cool nice guy ever and all his hopes and dreams will come true + trophy wife!1111 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kittykatknits Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 I've always wanted that...I haven't. I do however respect Sansa's right when it comes to her desires and intersts and those do not include Tyrion. More than once, she has flat out stated she doesn't want to be married to him and has also called him a liar.Sansa as Lady of Casterly Rock and Tyrion as Lord Protector of the North? Politically it might work, but it would upset most of the Sansa fans terribly.Did you read Dance of Dragons? Politically, it wouldn't work.Yea, I'm currently on my 3rd re-read of the books, and I noticed that since book 1 GRRM strongly hints that they might end up together. I think this was an idea he had in his mind since the very beginning.Really? Because I've picked the Sansa chapters apart and have engaged in a community re-read and have found very little foreshadowing. I've found foreshadowing for different relationships and other paths in life, but very little with Tyrion. Could you pull out some quotes and textual evidence for this? I'd really like to see it.We are discussing the situation after five books now and cannot know anything definite about what will have happened to characters when the last chapters are unfolding, about the protagonists' story and their personal development.Therefore discussing what characters might want or not want - or what we as readers want them to like or dislike - at the present stage of the story is pointless since the author will take the plot exactly where he wants it to go and his creatures will have to follow him and will desire and love exactly the person GRRM wants them to.You are right! It is pointless. We might as well just stop discussing 90% of the topics on this message board right now because Martin will just do whatever he wants. :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jolene Brown Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 I don't think it's even remotely possible. He had many opportunities to show sansa softening toward Tyrion during their marriage and he never did. san/san supporter or no, there is substantially more foreshadowing/textual evidence for a future with sandor than with tyrion, particularly her remembering Sandor in Tyrion's place when she thinks about/dreams about her own wedding night. I don't necessarily think GRRM will go there either, but I am totally sure that he won't keep put Sansa with Tyrion at the end. She virtually never thinks about him and he doesn't even really think about her. GRRM is also careful to make clear that the marriage CAN be annulled and careful not to have them consummate it. The only question for me is whether it will be annulled or whether Tyrion will die, so that it doesn't even need to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
