Also, apparently Kit Harrington is some kind of sex icon now? That i do not get at all. I find Jon to be the most boring principle character. I was tempted to skim through all his chapters, but then quickly realized that things happening at the Wall are rather important and not to be overlooked.
Anybody can be a prop class clown.

Whoa, whoa Melisandre!!!! From the books i always figured she was tapping Stannis' psychic energy not his...body. Whoa.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
Heh, that just makes it more... explicit.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
My immediate response to the map-table sex was OW, POINTY MOUNTAINS IN NEW PLACES! But I guess since she's magic, she doesn't feel pain?

Still less painful than accommodating a man in full armor, or on railroad tracks....

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
It's a relief map? I didn't notice that. The Lord of Light can cushion her as well as deactivate poison, I suppose.
Nice symbolism, in any case.

Because books.

I don't know, she didn't look too comfortable to me.
The last line of Cersei's? Jesus, she's a bitch.

Renly was even more foolish than I supposed in declaring himself king rather than allying with Stannis considering he's Stannis's heir. I never quite put that together until now.

Because books.
I was almost halfway through the book when the show came back, and half the things we saw last night I hadn't come across yet. The back end of the book must be jam-packed with action, or they're trying to space everything out more equally.

I'm reading 100 pages a week because the book's about a thousand pages and the season is ten episodes. It doesn't line up exactly but enough events correlate to make me feel like the pacing is similar. Which is to say, without really remembering from my previous read (I have very little idea what happens in which book at this point, much less what part of which book, it's just a huge jumble of story in my head) I vote for "jam-packed with action".
