MIKE YOU ARE SADISTIC. 8| ... but not as sadistic as this series.
↑ Ned's death: Yeah, precisely. I FINALLY REMEMBERED THE LAST FACTOR I WAS THINKING OF! If only Ned hadn't been so fucking gallant and tipped Cersei off first. Then if only Littlefinger hadn't betrayed them, if only Sansa hadn't tipped Cersei off about their flight, if only Joffrey had LISTENED TO HIS MOTHER YOU STUPID BOY... at which point you have so many "if only!"s that you might as well just accept it as inevitable. WHICH IS SO PAINFUL, ARGH.
