Hammy Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 [quote name='Asator' post='1624325' date='Dec 18 2008, 17.15']I'll just come back to the initial question of this thread and throw in another candidate: She'll end up marrying Tommen. True, he's betrothed to Margery, but the series will run for a few years still and life in westeros is dangerous. It would be a purely political marriage, binding the richest and most powerful house of the realm to danys cause. I'm not saying it will happen instantly(I rather think she'll marry Quentin in ADWD, but i don't think that will last) and I don't think they'll fall in love, but it would be an option when the the whole of the realm will have to face the Others. Or they could marry AFTER the final war, to reunite the kingdom. I know Dany hates the Lannisters, but when it comes to political alliance it doesn't really matter if partners hate or love each other.[/quote] I think Barristan Selmy might advise against that though. And Dany has proved on more than one occasion that her feelings can affect her judgements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyrion Dany would work... I guess... Personally I think that he could do much better... I was suggesting Arya Dany instead... I know that Arya could do MUCH better, but... Honestly, no matter which way it goes, I'm ready to get away from having Dany as a POV character... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After all dany is only 15 now and girls her age tend to be guided by their feelings. At the end of the series she will be about 20, have a lot more experience, probably be wiser when it comes to matters of policy and hopefully have a much sounder judgement that's not basicly affected by her emotions. I don't really see why Selmy should advise against it, however. And even if he did, Tyrion probably will be at Dany's side in the near future. If he becomes part of her inner circle of advisers he would IMO be a strong supporter of a match between Dany and Tommen. It might even be his idea in the first place.

He hated Jaime for a start for kingslaying and that was extended to Joffrey when he dismissed him and was extented further to Cersei when she tried to kill him!

Or Myrcella? If Daenerys reaches Westeros, Tommen is alive and Daenerys is not committed to any man, marrying Tommen would settle quite a number of things. Dany had problems when Jorah wanted to treat her as his wife not his queen. And when she was horny, she considered the problems which might follow from taking one of her bloodriders in her bed. If Daenerys takes Tommen to her bed, I expect Tommen would easily put up with her wearing the pants. Daenerys will not be quite as dominating to Tommen as Cersei... Another matter is whether bringing up Tommen would feel satisfactory for Daenerys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Lion of Castamere Posted December 20, 2008 Share Posted December 20, 2008 She should get together with either Jon if hes Rhaegar's son or one of Bittersteel or Daemon Blackfyre's descendents. Anyone who is either Targaryen or Targaryen bastard so the Targaryen dynasty can continue. No one seems to want this but me. I for some reason really want the Targaryens to return.
