Karneol Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 Idk this is just my imagination Lannister Kind of a mafia meeting: Tywin sits on the head of the table and in the background plays the Rains of Castamere. Meanwhile Tyrion-the shame of the family-is locked up in his room and the Frey family is completly ignored. Tyrell Everybody pretends to be happy. Tons of fake compliments and praises, while in the behind the friendly surface everbody hates each other. Olenna makes some comments about Maces stupidity and how miserable everybody is and everybody pretends Olenna is just a crazy old Grandma with alzheimer Dont take this to serious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it to similar to the Starks/Tullys/Arryns/Baratheons? crowded, loud & fun? What makes you think the above? Tully; Hoster and Brynden had not spoken in almost two decades, even before that their relationship was prickly. The same for Hoster's relationship with Lysa, who he forced to marry. Cat and Lysa reunite after a decade of not seeing each other and there was little warmth or fun involved. Cat returns to Riverrun and neither she or Brynden are particularly warm to Edmure. Baratheon; All three brothers seem to dislike each other on some level, they are bonded through blood, not through choice. I can't imagine any of the three enjoying being stuck in a room with the other two. Stark; Ned and Benjen's closest relatives are their cousins in the Vale. Robb had to be reminded of their existence before he disinherited them in favor of a bastard serving on the Wall. This does not suggest a close relationship. Arryn; In Jon's time he was happy to have both a nephew and distant cousin as heir, both had positions of prestige under Jon (knight of the Gate & Keeper of the Gates of the Moon) suggesting closeness. Now though its clear there is a rivalry between sickly Robin and his heir, Harry. I imagine those other branches are watching closely. The Tyrells and Lannisters likely have better reunions than most of these simply due to wealth and more positions available/afforded them in their respective regions. Genna and Daven are immediately warm and friendly to Jaime, as are his cousin Cleos and distant cousin Addam Marbrand. Kevan seemed fond of Tywin and his children up until Tyrion 'murdered' Joffrey and he learnt the incest was true. Lancel was clearly a fan of Jaime and Cersei. Going back 40 years when Tywin went to war without his father's permission his younger brothers, Kevan and Tygett, joined him as well as his cousins from House Prester and Marbrand. A Lannister family reunion would be fun in spite of Tywin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the cousins are friendly with Margaery, obviously. Olenna seems to care deeply about her grandchildren, and I'm sure she loves her son despite him being an oaf. Mace is planning on his uncle Garth coming to the capital and joining the small council, showing they likely have a decent relationship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackLightning Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 My prediction for Winds of Winter is that we'll get a chance to see a little bit about how a Lannister family reunion would be like at Casterly Rock. Except I think it won't end very pretty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Suburbs Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 A Lannister/Tyrell family union without at least one death is considered a dull affair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
