Monctonvike Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 I fear for the Skagoosi children now that Davos is heading there. Pehaps Davos will eat some of their children forcing them to stop protecting Rickon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erza Whitewalker Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Wait, you know who Papa Walton is? (G'night JonSnow-boy, G'night Margaery-Ellen, G'night Jaime-Bob) I would have gone with something more contemporary like "Davos's remaining kids are going to have more daddy-issues than a character in LOST." And please, please , please, nobody start slagging on LOST - I happen to love the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odd really, but I think its a fitting comparison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffin's Roost Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 wow couldn't agree less with this. also the thing about him going to kill melisandre. she was burning people just bc they didn't accept her gd. davos was on a mission to save people.his kids can wait for him a few more days if it means davos saving stannis and any more bloodshed. hes not a great father but I don't think I would ever say he is bad. relative to the book.

It's a troll/for fun thread my friend, don't worry. Nobody with a normally functioning brain really thinks Davos is a bad father (for the setting).

oopeed Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 TL;DR you lost me at the mention of Janos Slynt. Yet I'd say he's more like the worst husband ever; I mean, he has seven children (all boys at that) and also leaves the woman attending the lands, so she's both the milkcow and the shepherd dog. I wonder if she hasn't gone nuts while Davos is out there living grand and large. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thelittledragonthatcould Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Before Blackwater I think he was a good father, trying to advance his family but after the defeat at Blackwater and the death of 4 of his sons he should have took Deven and returned home rather than serve a man with little chance of winning. He put the interests of Stannis ahead of his young sons Stannis and Steffan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Daario Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Such a troll post. Davos is a good father, as good as Ned. This series has some really shit fathers, the most notorious being Lord Tywin, Randyll Tarly, and Walder Frey. Imagine being one of Walder Frey's kids...you're completely expendable! Then there's Robert...while he's not an evil person like the fathers I just named, he wasn't father of the year material either, although I think he would have been a GREAT father if Lyanna had lived or if Cersei had given him real trueborn sons. But at least Robert made sure his bastards were provided for. Jamie Lannister is the poster definition of a shit father. Then you have you have Hoster Tully...IMO, he's a really shady character. It's alluded that he was a distant father, and also that he did some pretty heinous stuff to Lysa Tully and is the reason she was so psychologically damaged.The WORST father, though...Roose Bolton, by a mile. Raising the bastard that murdered his brother and encouraging Ramsay in all of his cruel depravities...it's chilling. He makes Tywin look like #1 dad.Davos is as good a father as a man of duty can be expected to be...two of his sons became amazing sailors, he secured a future for the other as a knight. His duty is to Stannis, so it is not his fault that he doesn't have more time for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Daario Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 You know, I just might have to re-read all of Davos' chapters. With my new insight concerning his dastardly patriarchal activies and sacrifices, I will be far less judgemental in my outlook. See, I first thought that Davos resemble Ned in spirit, and Ned was the closest thing we had for a hero, ergo, Davos became the new Ned. How wrong could I have been?!?! So far on my lists of judgement list that need revision: Was good on first read ... is really rather terrible when regarded in a new light Ned Davos Was bad ... now appears to be more worthy with further indepth reads: Roose Craster Randyl Tarly Definitely should not have children with this new knowledge in hand: Brienne Benjen Makes me wonder if I'd gotten characters such as Qyburn messed up due to my prejudices, as well. I'm so horribly ashamed of myself right now. Thank goodness for posters such as Bronn Urgandy et al on this thread for tearing off my 'rose-tinted glasses'. Bless you, BU et al! :) Davos is Ned with a dash of scoundrel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ser Brandon Badwater Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Has it been confirmed where Davos was when Theon was supposed to have had those 2 Winterfell kids murdered? If not , we all know who really did it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

golden_eyes Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Roosevelt Bolton is the best father in the series because he lets Ramsay do whatever and doesn't actively try to get him killed and he let his other son ride his horse wherever. He also didn't punish Ramsay for killing his brother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
