Nowhere without love: all the romantic relationships of the characters in Game of Thrones. Excerpts from the interview: about Shaya and other ambiguities of the latest episode (spoilers!) - shadowcat

And yet I cannot remain silent. Because this is already the fourth season, there’s no one to really discuss it with, but it’s really necessary.
First of all, be sure to wash the bones of your aunts. And it will be seen there.

1. Margaery Tyrell(Natalie Dormer). The actress (like most actors who perform “children’s” roles) is much older than the character(in "Song of Ice and
flame" by George Martin Margaery - 15-16 years old). Actually, in the book she doesn’t particularly attract attention. Just another ambitious girl. In the film she is memorable. By the way, the screen Margaery looks much more interesting than the actress in real life (very typical appearance ).

And lady Olenna! Oooh, Olenna is my favorite heroine - in the book, what
in film. An amazingly subtle and intelligent old intriguer, not devoid of either nobility, however, or spiritual sensitivity. The actress who plays Olenna Tyrell is absolutely gorgeous and fits the character surprisingly well.

Margaery, under her grandmother's sensitive guidance, could be a wonderful queen, capable of saving, perhaps even the hopeless reign of the psychotic sadist Joffrey.

Alas, alas. It’s time to give our bunny as a wife to our enemies, like a talisman for good luck. We bet the third husband won't live to see his wedding night? Virgin Queen of the highest standard, with a patent.

And in the series our Shaechka was acquitted, hurray! Whatever she does now will be motivated somehow. Amazing!

Actress Sibel Kekili, by the way, is wonderful, she is much better than at all young girl described in the book. Even though she’s a porn actress) However, perhaps this is just quite appropriate: in “Game of Thrones” there are heroes and villains, whores and gentle loving women- are not antipodes at all, but so many mutually exclusive qualities can coexist in one person that you inevitably begin to believe in the reality of these people.

3. Asha (or Yara) Greyjoy. Here is actress Gemma Willen surprised. More precisely, the choice of this particular actress. A kind of chubby-cheeked peasant girl - Alyonushka in the role of a pirate, to whom the devil himself is not a brother. Or brother?.. ah, yes, he is no longer a cake and not a devil...

Somehow she doesn’t convince me at all. I just want to scream: I don’t believe it! It’s strange, in general, in “Game of Thrones” the actors were chosen for the most part close in type to the original source.

4. Melisandre, the red priestess (actress Carice van Houten). It's amazing how different perceptions can be. I immediately decided that she was one of the most attractive women in the series.

But men (different, of different ages and with different tastes) at first glance they described it to me as “faded.” Then, looking closer, they recognized: she really was beautiful, sexy. Looks great.

The actress perfectly fits into the character: demonic and infernal.

5. Osha the wild(Natalia Tena). I just love this actress madly, ever since Nymphadora Tonks from Harry Potter. By the way, it is perhaps a considerable amount of courage and a sign of a good actress not to be afraid to look worse than you are. She really is charming! But this hunched position, head to one side, glance from under his brows, constrained movements, sweeping gait - all this creates a surprisingly solid image. In Martin's Game of Thrones she was even less expressive.

Again, interesting: I find Natalia Tena charming even in this image. And representatives of the male half of humanity do not really see women like that in her. Marvelous.

6.Catelyn Stark(Michelle Fairley) and Cersei Lannister(Lena Headey). It's surprising that no one notices how similar they are: conditional positive Katelyn and conditionally negative Cersei. Both were once married without love. Both are primarily females. Or first of all - mothers, depending on how you look at it. For everyone, their own children are of the highest value (regardless of what or who they have to sacrifice for them).

The main thing that separates them is that Catelyn is somewhat softer. She was given in marriage, she was told to love - and she fell in love. Cersei simply found her own little happiness, never listening to those who controlled her destiny.

It is significant, by the way, that they treat those innocents who involuntarily caused them pain equally. For Catelyn, this is the bastard John - evidence of her husband’s betrayal, a child who is guilty of nothing except that he was born. For Cersei - Tyrion, a dwarf, a disgrace to the family, giving birth to whom their common mother died. And Tyrion’s main guilt before Cersei is still the same... he was born.

And both do not reason too much, intending to take revenge for their children. They are quick to draw conclusions and take revenge. So, Catelyn is ready, without looking at the consequences and not particularly including logic, to execute Tyrion for what happened to Bran (Tyrion is not to blame, but who cares?). Later (ahtung! spoiler for those who haven’t read!) this trait of hers will take on an extreme form - when it turns into the only thing that remains of the living Catelyn. To the same Tyrion, Cersei is ready to immediately cut off his head for Joffrey (Tyrion is not to blame again, and in general, hands off the beautiful dwarf! But oh, who cares in this world justice...), just like Catelyn, without really looking for someone to blame, being simply obsessed with the thirst for revenge and blood.

By the way, I admit that Catelyn is a grown-up Sansa by type. An obedient girl, a true lady, “remembering her duty.” It’s just that in the Catelyn that she is now, the defining feature is motherhood. And Sansa just hasn’t become a mother yet.

Jon Snow finds a squad of wildlings and talks with Mance Rayder- King-behind-the-wall. Jonah They were received well, and the conversation passed peacefully until it became clear that the detachment was attacked by unexpected enemies. Neither John, nor Mance had no idea who it could be, but this is himself Stanis Baratheon with a huge army of armed horsemen. Mance tired of wars and it turns out he attacked the brothers of the night watch, only to hide behind the walls from the white walkers. The remnants of the army surrender Stanis,Mance does not want to fight and is taken prisoner, but Jon Snow in the favor of Stanisa like his father Eddard Stark always served faithfully Baratheons.

Meanwhile, in King's Landing, the maesters are doing everything they can to save Gregor Clegane –mountain.

Turns out. that before his deathOberyn Martellmanaged to wound his sister’s ruthless killer with a poisoned weapon. Most likely fromMountainsit will turn out to be a good monster next season, since it is no longer destined to live, but it can still be a zombie.

Cersei refuses to marry a gay man Loras Tyrell. She threatens her father Tywin Lannister tell everyone about your love affair with his brother, if his father does not cancel them with Loras engagement. After this conversation Cersei goes to Dzheme, tells him everything and makes love to him on the table.

Next we see Daenerys. Khaleesi has more and more problems, first an old slave comes to her, who asks his queen to allow him to sell himself into slavery, since free life, as he believes, for the young, for the old, nothing will be better than the former slave life. Then to Denis a shepherd comes, he brings the remains of his three-year-old daughter in rags, he burns and eats the baby black dragon Drogan. Daenerys decides to shackle the dragons in iron shackles in the dungeon. But she was not able to lure all her children there. But only Rhaegal And Viserion. The most cunning and rebellious black dragon Drogan manages to escape and hide in a safe place.

Behind the wall a large funeral pyre has been built for all those killed. But Ygritte Jon Snow burns separately from everyone else in the forest. Since before that he talked with the captive Tormund who said Snow, What Ygritte loved him, and deserves to be burned north of the wall.

Meanwhile Bran and his companions reach the cherished goal of their journey, and then suddenly the bony hands of the dead begin to crawl out of the frozen ground, they grab his leg Jojen Reed. There are more and more skeletons, the massacre begins, Jojen dies, everyone else is saved by a strange girl, she throws fireballs at the walking skeletons and orders everyone to run for cover behind her. Bran, Mira And Hodor they run away into a cave, this place protects them from the dead, the skeletons simply crumble into pieces as soon as they penetrate it.

Further Bran meets with Three-Eyed Raven- an ancient old man on a throne of intertwined tree roots. The old man reports that from birth Branagh he is watching him. When the boy asked if he could walk Three-Eyed Raven answers that he should go Bran will not be able to, but he will be able to fly.

Brienne And Podrick find Arya Stark And Dog. Brienne asks Sandora give him the girl because she swore to be a lady Katelyn that he would find her daughters and bring them to her. For what Dog reminds her that both parents and brother Arya dead, and that now there was no place where it could be safe for his companion. Dog notices that Brienne sword with symbols belonging to Lannisters, which means the maiden of Tarth can serve traitors. In principle, this whole company could agree among themselves, but Dog was overly self-confident in his abilities and his rightness, a fight begins, and that moment comes in the fight when Brienne could either kill or spare Gregor Clegane, she chose mercy, but Dog did not need this indulgence, he began to thresh Warrior whatever you hit. A Brienne in the heat of a fight she bit off his ear, basically Dog he himself ran into being thrown off a cliff. The fight, I must say, turned out to be spectacular, and Gwendoline Christie, playing a role Brienne– beautiful and gorgeous even without makeup. During a fight Arya hiding from Brienne, and later approaches the dying man Dog. Dog asks the girl to kill him with one blow to the heart, but Arya cannot forgive him for the death of the butcher's son. Dog trying to make you angry Arya and tells her all sorts of nasty things about her loved ones, but the girl is adamant, she takes all the money that was with her companion and leaves him to slowly die on the mountainside.

Further Tyrion looks for his father and finds him sitting astride the toilet. A short monologue takes place between relatives, but dad's fate Lannister has already been decided - because he is too arrogant with own son, even despite the fact that death is already standing nearby and looking straight into the eyes of the harmful old man. Tyrion asks why his father sentenced him to death, despite the fact that he knows that his son is innocent? For what Tywin replies that he no longer wants to talk to his son while sitting in the toilet, and that they need to talk about everything in the room. Tyrion says he can't be in the same room with his dead lover.

Tywin grins and clarifies that Shaya- she's just a whore. These last words daddies were a mistake Tyrion deftly kills him with a crossbow.

He's packing Tyrion into a box and loads it onto the ship, then they quickly sail away from the crime scene.

Preface

Attention! The narrative will follow the series, but it will not affect the canon, because this story will change the fate of the Lannisters, at least one of them...
So why was the fate of the great husband and head of the house of Lannister, Tywin, predetermined? After all, he seemed smart and calculating, but what went wrong? His main shortcomings destroyed him - he was too proud, arrogant and cynical and underestimated his hated son. This will be corrected...partially... (Otherwise it will not be Tywin. Smart, but not proud.) After all, we see how the greatest house gradually falls apart and family members die.
The only one who cared about the fate of the family's inheritance was Tywin, but he also had many wrong, even erroneous, actions, which resulted in hatred and enmity between the houses of Tyrell and Martell. And therefore, let's make Tywin smart, and not proud and, in some ways, selfish towards his children. Let's give this family a chance to survive and leave at least some legacy for their descendants.

Part I. After the trial...
Night. Tyrion was in prison, but later Jaime came to him to free him. As soon as Tyrion heard the noise and noticed the dim light of the torch, he turned his attention to the door and saw a familiar approaching figure in armor with a golden cloak - it was Jaime, who began to open the door.
“What are you doing?” Tyrion asked him.
- Isn’t it visible? I'm saving you. I won't let my brother die and I believe that it wasn't you who did it...
“The only normal brother...” Tyrion drawled under his nose.
Jaime freed Tyrion, wishing him luck and bidding him farewell. As soon as Tyrion was free, he was overcome by the thought: “Why did Shae betray him? Didn't she really love him? or did Tywin force her to lie by threatening her? But it was best to think that she did this to save Tyrion, and the truth would not help here, because her father is in power and, one way or another, his side will win. And Tyrion went to his father’s chambers to find out everything from him. Arriving at the Hand's chambers, he saw Shae on Tywin's bed, she was sleeping... It is difficult to convey Tyrion's feelings at that moment. He was so stunned and very surprised, approaching the bed and looking at Shaya, but then she woke up, opening her eyes and slowly pulling herself up on the bed and said
- Mm... Tywin, my lion...
-Shaya? - Tyrion said in surprise, stopping next to the bed.
Shae opened her eyes and quickly stood up, looking at Tyrion and grabbed the dagger on the nightstand next to the bed. Tyrion abruptly grabbed her hands, realizing that she was really ready to kill him, and a struggle began by the bed. Tyrion took a rope, which was a decoration for the bed, and wrapped it around Shaya’s neck and began to choke him... Shaya twitched, trying to get out of the grip, but soon stopped breathing and died... He was very sorry, hard and painful, because he loved her...
- Forgive me... forgive me. - He was overcome by despair, he sat for a while near the bed, then slowly looked up at the wall in the room where the crossbow hung. He took it, loaded it and took with him some crossbow bolts. He went to look for Tywin and came across the restroom. it was quiet. He walked to the toilet door and opened it, returning to his seat opposite the toilet. Tywin was sitting there. Tyrion pointed his crossbow at him. Tywin was very surprised by this circumstance and even shocked, but did not show it.
-Tyrion? Put down the crossbow. - short pause - Who let you out? - He continued to keep his cold gaze on his son, as if he was not impressed. He was confused, but thought that Tyrion would not have the heart to do him any harm. Tyrion was silent. Without waiting for an answer, Tywin made his own assumptions.
- Your brother, I guess. He always had a soft spot for you. - Tywin jerked his head slightly and was about to stand up, saying the following
-Let's go and talk in my chambers.
But Tyrion pointed the crossbow even more at him and Tywin sat back down, frozen in place.
- That's how you want to talk to me, right? You always liked to disgrace your father... - he did not have time to finish his speech as soon as Tyrion interrupted him.
- All my life you wanted me dead. - Tywin cast his contemptuous glance at Tyrion for a second and gave an answer, nodding. - Yes, but you didn’t want to die. I respect this, even admire it. You're ready to fight to get what's yours. I wouldn't allow you to be executed. Are you afraid of this? I won't let Ilion Payne behead you. You are a Lannister. - Tywin turned his head slightly, looking at him seriously and coldly. - You are my son.
- I used to love her…
- Whom?
- Shayu.
- Oh, Tyrion... Lower the crossbow.
- I killed her.
Tywin moved slightly, looking closely at Tyrion.
-...With my own hands.
- It doesn't matter.
- Doesn't matter?
- She was a whore...
- Say it again...
- And what? Would you kill your own father in the restroom? - Tywin shook his head - No. You are my son. Enough nonsense - Tywin started to get up, but sat back down...
- I am your son, and you sentenced me to death. You knew I didn't poison Joffrey, but you still sentenced me. Why?
Tywin was already starting to get angry - Enough. We will return to my chambers and have a decent conversation.
- I won't go back there. There she is...
-Are you afraid of a dead whore? - and then Tywin forgot about Tyrion’s warning and inadvertently called Shae a whore and Tyrion sharply shot at him and a crossbow bolt pierced his side on the left side, from the blow he flew back to the wall and hit it, falling a little on his side and grabbing the wall candlestick. Tywin groaned and turned his head towards the wound, taking hold of the bolt.
- You shot at me. - and in anger he said - You are not my son.
- I am your son. I have always been your son. - Tyrion fired again and hit Tywin in the shoulder.
Tywin regained his sanity late and it was in vain that he spoke to his son like that, which he greatly regretted. He lost consciousness, and Tyrion thought that his father had died and walked away, then he met Varys and they escaped from King's Landing.
But, a little later, one girl, pretending to be a servant, somehow entered the tower of the Hand like a shadow and discovered the seriously wounded Tywin and hurried to him. It was Lorea the Faceless, she was a killer, but also had healing skills.
- The wound is serious, but I will try to help him, and if he dies, then I will have to turn to the Lord of Light, the fire god.
She removed the crossbow bolts from Tywin's body and treated the wounds with an herbal ointment. Lorea didn’t really believe in the Lord, but she was a foreigner, and she had her own secrets of healing... Soon Tywin woke up and, in order to survive, he had to listen to the stranger. Towards morning, Lorea drugged Tywin with a death faking agent and when he was discovered, he appeared to be dead. After the funeral, Lorea returned for him and helped him get to Harenhall, which became his refuge for a while.
So, thanks to a mysterious stranger whose motives were unknown, Lord Tywin found himself in Harenhal, recruiting an army, while showing himself to the army in a helmet and armor. Now he is a shadow of himself.
