Poor Tysha

Tywin’s treatment of Tysha is one of the cruelest things in the entire series and I genuinely don’t understand how people try to justify it. She was just a young girl who loved Tyrion, and because Tywin couldn’t stand the idea of his son marrying a “commoner,” he destroyed both of them.

Forcing Tyrion to watch while she was assaulted, then forcing him to participate too, wasn’t “discipline” or “protecting the family name.” It was sadistic humiliation. There is no excuse for it.

And honestly, I don’t even want to imagine how terrified and broken Tysha must have felt during all of it. People sometimes discuss this storyline like it’s just another political move by Tywin, but there was a real human being at the center of that horror. She didn’t deserve any of it.

What makes it even worse is that Tyrion spent years believing she never loved him, because Jaime was forced to lie. Tywin didn’t just ruin one moment he permanently damaged Tyrion’s ability to trust love and kindness. That’s not greatness or “hard leadership.”

First time watcher Sn 3 Ep 9

What.

I decided to finally get around to watching GoT just a couple days ago, and I've been binge watching. I went into watching this show with very few spoilers; I read the first book and half of the second years and years ago, but past that, the only notion I had that this could happen was:

1. I know that GoT is infamous for killing off its characters with impunity, and

2. I've heard the words "The Red Wedding" before. (the name kind of implies what it is, but I thought it'd be something extravagant that happens with Daenerys or at least at King's Landing)

So this was entirely out of left field. The previous wedding business with the Lannisters put me off my guard and I completely forgot about The Red Wedding being a thing to even look out for.

And DAMN. Where's the story even supposed to go from here??? Like an entire main plot line is gone, what the hell?

Also I've been listening to the song Rains of Castamere for years with absolutely no context, cause it's an AWESOME song, but having the context now means that it will definitely be at the top of my playlist for the next few days.

And NO SPOILERS PLEASE.

From now on, I think I'm just going to assume that everyone dies in this show. Jon Snow? He's gonna die. Daenerys? Yup, she'll die. Arya? Also dead. Sansa? Tyrion? Yeah, they'll probably die. Bran and Rickon? Oh, they probably die as well. Who knows? Everyone's fair game apparently.
