also tbh the events in ASoS may SEEM chaotic but it's all very carefully planned. Rereading it, there are a million billion hints as to The Wedding and stuff like that which you don't notice until you know what they mean.
Even the chaos is carefully orchestrated by the chessmasters of Westeros~
Here's what I'm afraid of--with Tyrion only having a ~*rakish*~ scar and his general "I'm super cool and respect women and have a good personality and I look like Winklage", when Sansa and Tyrion get married and Sansa rightly freaks out on the wedding night, the backlash against her is going to be overwhelming and I'm going to rage and rage and rage and rage and punch my computer since D&D are going to make it her fault for not giving it up to this total babe Tyrion and isn't she just so terrible since she judges people on her looks and there's going to be NOTHING about how Tyrion's all, "well, I would bang you even though you are clearly terrified and not ready but I won't for now, I GUESS, aren't I GREAT?"
Yeah, it's inevitable. Sansa's going to be hated no matter what. I mean, I know a lot of book readers hold that against her already calling her a bitch over how she treats Tyrion during their marriage. Because, you know, she's totally obligated to love one of her CAPTORS whose family is waging war against her family and has abused her. What a shallow, frigid bitch for not wanting to have sex with Tyrion!
To be fair, Tyrion's attitude wasn't like that. He basically said he wouldn't touch her unless she wanted him to and if she never did he would be fine with that.
I don't blame Sansa in the least but I don't think Tyrion was horrible in that specific instance either.
Ummm... he knew full well she was a child, acknowledged her as a child, and yet still fondled her breast. Just because he didn't go through with consummating their farce of a marriage does not negate that.

Sansa looks so much like Cat too.
And oh my god, Cat. I hope they give you actual YOU to work with, because that actress... I kinda can't wait for Lady Stoneheart.
Loving Tyrion's smirk, so hot.

I'm ready to rage at how the writers handle this tho.
