This week I briefly died of Theon Greyjoy feelings. Not an especially dignified way to go, but what can you do?


-Theon Greyjoy, YOU BEAUTIFUL FAILURE OF A HUMAN BEING. His letter to Robb, dude... See, this is why I can't entirely hate Theon, even when he is unarguably being a total shit, he has these better instincts, he so wants to be a better man, he just FAILS, every time.

That beat where Balon asks him the Greyjoy words where he very nearly says "Winter is coming," and "You gave me away like a dog!" I am not enjoying feeling these feelings, Theon, I hope you know that!

-One week I will succeed in articulating my feelings about Sansa beyond ridiculous flailing about how that is Sophie Turner's actual, real face! But this week is not that week.

Although that dinner scene, see I have all these feelings about Cersei and Sansa and cycles of abuse, and how Cersei knows that she's condemning Sansa to the same sort of marriage she suffered through, the exact same thing that she's terrified will happen to Myrcella, and how she's not going to let that stop her.

But mostly I am happy that Sophie is attending the Lena Headey school of conveying eighty-three different and occasionally conflicting nuances with one expression, yes.

-THE MAID OF TARTH! I have thoughts about Brienne, really I do, but enumerating them will have to wait until I have finished composing this epic love letter to Gwendoline Christie. That is some perfect casting, right there.

-There are a lot of things to be said about Margaery's introduction, most of them "BREASTS!" But, I don't know, I am not convinced by any of the Tyrell's. Probably because I don't have opinions on them in the books. So, that might actually be interesting to watch a show character develop when I'm not coming in with a preconceived notion of them.

Next week I fully expect to die of Sansa feelings. Goodbye, cruel show.
