Sordelor Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Don't think there will be a lot of people saying Lysa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brightstar_ Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Catelyn. While Lysa had her share of troubles and "fucked up shit" along the road, she still tried to murder her 13 year old niece in a drunken rage for "seducing" her husband. So yea, I have little sympathy for Lysa, and while I can't say I really like Cat, she still stands head and shoulders above Lysa for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sunbro Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Above it all Cat was loyal to her family. Lysa... not so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ahura Mazda Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Is it fair to compare the results of two life experiences characterized by different traumas, suffering and surrounding people?Did Cat have manipulative men like LF around her, have a love loss, baby loss and unlike able marriage match?Did Lysa see her boys being killed one after the other?Should we compare Lysa to Cat or UnCat?Should we compare them up until they were still children, but with the biased viewpoint of Catelyn? I dunno. I pity both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Wolves Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Catelyn. While Lysa had her share of troubles and "fucked up shit" along the road, she still tried to murder her 13 year old cousin in a drunken rage for "seducing" her husband. So yea, I have little sympathy for Lysa, and while I can't say I really like Cat, she still stands head and shoulders above Lysa for me.Sansa is Lysa's niece and I don't really like Catelyn but I choose her everytime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brightstar_ Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Sansa is Lysa's niece and I don't really like Catelyn but I choose her everytime Pardon me, english is not my native language and in my language the word for cousin and niece is pretty much interchangeable.

Lady Fevre Dream Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Cat, hands down. It's hard to find anything likeable or redeemable about Lysa. I do have a problem with how Cat treated Jon, but not so much a problem that I don't like her, it's just a part of her characterization that really bugs me. Maybe it's because technically I'm a stepmother, and I just get tired of the 'evil' stepmother trope. It just seems to me, regardless of the damn society she lived in, that watching her own children love Jon for years should have taught her something. Not only that, but once she starts thinking alot of her own children are dead and Robb wants to make Jon an heir, she still hasn't learned anything. She doesn't trust that Robb himself learned something from Theon and that he might still know what he's talking about in relation to his 'brother.' Can ya tell, it really bugs me? LOL Believe it or not, though, I really do like Cat. I feel bad for the fact that Cat is left as Lady Stoneheart. I hope that she learns of some of Cat's surviving children and finds peace.

Queen Alienor Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 I pity Lysa, but that's all. Cat is not one of my favs, but she is okay, so her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fat Mac Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 I don't think there are "Lysa fans" but there are Cat haters, so there might be a couple votes for Lysa. As for me, I prefer Catelyn heavily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brienne The Wolf Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Cat of course. I pity them both but I pity Cat more. She lost her husband, father, daughters, young sons, firstborn son, then when when she couldn't handle all her losses and sorrow she awakes again as Lady Stoneheart and keep suffering.

Usrnmhsnomning Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 There is nothing redeeming about Lysa's character. She's a horrible mother, a horrible sister/daughter/niece/aunt, she murdered her husband at the behest of the man she was/would have ended up cheating on him with, she tried to kill her niece because her lover kissed her. About the only thing you could even remotely say was positive about her was she avoided war, a war which half her lords would rather have been a part of in her husbands name and memory.

The Holy Goat Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Cat. She was never my favorite POV character, but I liked her well enough and found her very wellwritten and fascinating. Lysa was a madwoman though, and while she was fascinating in a very unsettling way, trying to throw Sansa out the moondoor is a nono for me.

Roose Trollton. Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Catelyn of course. She's one of the most human/comprehensible characters in the series, I don't understand why everyone hates her. Lysa... well, poor devil. I feel sorry for her, but certainly despise her more than Cat for being so blind , egoistical and jealous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
