Queen Alysanne™ Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 During the whole of the first 5 books there have been no marriages that last more then a book that we actually get to see husband and wife working together like Alysanne and her brother/husband(Sorry cant spell his name and lazy to open another tab).Joanna and Tywin was also a similar relationship like that.However in the first 5 books there have been no such marriages that have happened and lasted more than a book, Dany and Drogo, Drogo died before AGOT ended.Ned and Cat were seperated at the start of AGOT and Ned died at the end.Do you think there will be anymore of such marriages where husband and wife work together on equal terms?Or there will be no more in the series.If yes who so you propose based on the events leading up to the next book?

mrunderhill Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Sadly no. There are a few marriages that have that potential, but will probably never to get that stage. Margaery and Renly had potential as does Margaery and Tommen. If Jaime were to marry Brienne. Robb and Jeyne had potential, though she did not seem the most intelligent of girls. Trystane and Myrcella is another with great potential, though she seems to be far more intelligent than him.I guess the most likely one is Aegon and Arianne, but they will probably work together to the detriment of their lives.

mrunderhill Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 What about Dany and Vic if they marry?Victarion is an idiot. Though I do think if he was raised properly he would actually be a stupid but fairly good man, the same with Drogo. Alas they are what they are. No I don't see them working too well. Dany is a smart woman and Victarion is just a thug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alas they are what they are. No I don't see them working too well. Dany is a smart woman and Victarion is just a thug.Well they could still "use" eachother. Dany could get to Westeros with his ships, and he could get his revenge on Euron. And I wouldn't say that Vic is very stupid, but he was sort of locked too long on the Iron Islands and maybe he could learn a little bit more from his trip.

mrunderhill Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 Thats true I forgot about that one, plus she convinced him to follow mel.Selyse is not really Stannis' equal mentally and her advice is usually leading him down the wrong path. He would do best to ignore her.Well they could still "use" eachother. Dany could get to Westeros with his ships, and he could get his revenge on Euron. And I wouldn't say that Vic is very stupid, but he was sort of locked too long on the Iron Islands and maybe he could learn a little bit more from his trip.They could use each other, but I don't see them forming a dynamic duo like the examples given by the OP.

Dany got well along with Drogo, why couldn't she come along the same way with Vic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
