James Steller Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Let's assume Tyrion's mother still dies giving birth to him, and assume Tyrion's personality is as intact as could be expected. Would Cersei, and for that matter, Tywin, despise him to the point of conspiring to kill him?I ask because I wonder how much of their hatred for him was prejudice towards dwarfs as opposed to who Tyrion was.

Crow's eye in the sky Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 What if Tyrion looked more like Jaime? Would Cersei have the urge to fuck him? Serious question though, is he still deformed? (Deformities also attract prejudice) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floki of the Ironborn Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Good question.It's hard to answer though. So much of Tyion's personality stems from his being a dwarf. So I suppose his self loathing would have to come from his mother's death. And I could buy both Tywin and Cersei still hating Tyrion for that. But Tywin would likely be more concerned with raising him to be a worthy Lannister, maybe even a second Jaime. And so Tyrion would be allowed to flourish more with his gifted mind. Tywin would recognize it more easily and value it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bronn Urgandy Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Probably, credit to Cersie, whatever else she is she is also one of the more equal opportunities characters in the series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bronn Urgandy Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 I find her to be a bigoted hypocrite myself. Yeah, that too. But if you suck up to her enough you get rewarded for it, even if she hates everything about you. Actually I am not sure if that's what I meant, I mean, she hates everything about someone, regardless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Good Guy Garlan Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Probably no. Cersei always followed Tywin's lead, and Tywin would've loved (or whatever Tywin's version of love is) Tyrion and named him his heir. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonCon's Red Beard Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Nope. This would have happened. Minus the dog. Or... maybe the dog too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roose is Azor Ahai Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Nope. Or maybe if the valonqar prophecy is still said to her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Lannister Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Seems to me she'd sleep with Tyrion at some point just like she did Lancel, Osmund Kettleback and Moon Boy for all I know... gotta have that Jaime substitute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oafkeeper Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Who knows? If Tyrion wasn't a dwarf he'd be a very different person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrueOrFalse Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Maybe. She might still blame him for "killing" their mother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cas Stark Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Who doesn't she hate? LOL. Good point. She does hate everyone except her brother, and she begins to hate him as soon as he stops doing her bidding. She wants to be like her father, but still hates him.

UtherSnow Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 In one word - YES. Reasoning? Tyrion is not Jaime. Tyrion is not Rheagar. She'd still nip his little pink cock for Oberyn to tell us about once she has Tyrion blamed for whatever becomes her displeasure at the time.Basically, Tyrion would be her scapegoat anyway. Cersei is like that. It's in her blood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oafkeeper Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Yeah, I guess UtherSnow makes a good point: From her POV hates almost everyone, is contemptuous of most else and only loves Jaime and her kids. Even Tywin isn't that fondly regarded, or so it seems to me. She'd hate Tyrion because Cersei is spiteful and she'd still hear that damn prophesy.

Ser Eric Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Yes. She's a vindictive, spiteful and bitter woman. She only loves herself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
