Who is cersei to marry

Margaery Tyrell had enough audacity to actually attempt it. In the middle of the night, she crept into his bedchamber and set to work on wrapping him around her finger. She appealed to him by making friends with his cat, Ser Pounce, getting him to talk about his feelings about Joffrey, and even kissing him on the forehead, hinting of more to come.

Though Tommen saw this as a sign of friendliness and romantic interest, it was just Margaery doing what Margaery does best: manipulating. She was so determined to be queen and so confident in her abilities to manipulate Joffrey that she was willing to be married to one of the evilest characters on the show. In real life, marrying the brother of your dead husband is a pretty shameless move.

For most people, it would be the scandal of a lifetime. In George R. As soon as the mourning period was over, she was married to Tommen, such a short time after her wedding to his brother. Again, it all reinforced how both Tommen and Joffrey were not really people to her—just tools to bring her closer to the crown.

Vanessa is one of Valnet's contributing writers. By Vanessa Published Dec 19, Half a million bushels each of barley, oats, and rye. Twenty thousand head of cattle. Fifty thousand sheep. You don't have to lecture me about wartime expenses, I'm quite familiar with them.

Tyrion Lannister : And we are so grateful for your contributions, which are necessary for the preservation of the realm. Lady Olenna Tyrell : As is a royal wedding. The people are hungry for more than just food. They crave distractions. And if we don't provide them, they'll create their own. And their distractions are likely to end with us being torn to pieces. A royal wedding is much safer, wouldn't you say? Tyrion Lannister : I would.

Lady Olenna Tyrell : And traditionally paid for by the royal family. Lady Olenna Tyrell : I was told you were drunk, impertinent, and thoroughly debauched.

You can imagine my disappointment at finding nothing but a browbeaten bookkeeper. Lady Olenna Tyrell : Where did you go for them, Volantis? Tyrion Lannister : My lady Lady Olenna Tyrell : Oh, very well. I won't have it said that House Tyrell refuses to play its part. We'll pay for half the expenses, and the celebrations will go on as planned. Is that sufficient? Tyrion stands as well, before she can change her mind]. Tyrion Lannister : Quite sufficient, thank you.

Lady Olenna Tyrell : Very good, then. That's settled. Good day. He sees his sister and his father sitting at the table].

Tywin Lannister : You're late. Tyrion Lannister : What is she doing here? Tywin Lannister : Our business concerns her too. Tyrion Lannister : You'll be pleased to learn that after one conversation with Olenna Tyrell, I've saved the Crown hundreds of thousands on this wedding. Tywin Lannister : Never mind that now. We have something important to discuss. Tyrion Lannister : I'm Master of Coin. Saving money is important.

He looks at her with fuming annoyance]. Tyrion Lannister : [to Cersei] Stop that. You're making me uncomfortable. Tyrion Lannister : Very well. She's a lovely girl. Missing some of Loras' favorite bits, but I'm sure they'll make do. Tywin Lannister : Your jokes are not appreciated. Tyrion Lannister : It wasn't my best, but I thought Tywin Lannister : [interrupting Tyrion] I bring them into the royal fold and this is how they repay me, by trying to steal the key to the North out from under me.

Tyrion Lannister : Sansa is the key to the North? I seem to remember she has an older brother. Tywin Lannister : The Karstarks have marched home. The Young Wolf has lost half his army. His days are numbered. Theon Greyjoy murdered both his brothers. That makes Sansa Stark the heir to Winterfell. And I'm not about to hand her over to the Tyrells. Cersei, meanwhile, just wants power and to sit on the Iron Throne herself.

Since Jon has no such desires, they might have been an ideal royal couple. Cersei could be queen, the North could unite with the rest of Westeros, and Jon might be able to dissuade her from some of her eviller tendencies. Despite their armies fighting each other during the Battle of Blackwater, Cersei Lannister and Stannis Baratheon actually have a lot in common.

Both are serious and powerful leaders with unrelenting determination to take the Iron Throne. Together, they could be Westeros' power couple.

Following Robert Baratheon's death, Cersei marrying Stannis would have been a smart political move. It might seem strange for a widow to marry her dead husband's brother, but that's pretty much how Ned and Catelyn Stark's relationship started.

It might not be a loving marriage, but it would be a powerful one. Petyr "Littlefinger" Baelish is a man who is always looking for ways to climb the ladder of power in Westeros. It's actually quite surprising that he didn't attempt to situate himself as a potential partner for Cersei during her single years.

Once again, Cersei wouldn't dare let Littlefinger sit on the Iron Throne over her, but she would probably see the benefits of having such a skilled political player for a partner. They would likely make an unstoppable pair so long as they don't turn on each other. Varys is another skilled player of the game of thrones who would be a valuable ally for Cersei to have.

Varys was a mystery for much of the series, but in the end, we find that he does truly want what is best for the people of Westeros. He certainly doesn't see Cersei as the best choice for a ruler, but if he was at her side, he could steer her in the right direction. This would also be a relationship without much romance but it's likely these two would have respect for each other. They are intelligent people who have accomplished a lot from their meager beginnings.

Bronn is one of the least complicated people in Westeros. While others scheme and lie to get what they want, Bronn is an open book, ready to do any job for the right price.
