Yeah, I'm not sure how much Stannis knew about what Melisandre was planning to do with the shadow baby they made. That said, I also think he'd definitely chalk Renly's death up to a casualty of war. I mean, had they met on the field of battle and Renly not surrendered to him, I don't doubt Stannis would've cut him down if he'd had the chance. That falls in line with who I thought he was. Killing Shireen, though. I mean, she's not an enemy combatant. She's not a criminal. She's not even an adult. She's a child and his daughter and he loved her (I never got the sense that he cared much for his brothers). That's cold, man.
Well, a gathering is brie, mellow song stylings; shindig, dip, less mellow song stylings, perhaps a large amount of malt beverage, and hootenanny, well, it's chock full of hoot, just a little bit of nanny.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Stannis was actively at war with his brother, wasn't he? Killing him seems par for the course.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Well, Stannis going by Stannis's rules would have killed him on the battlefield, not in his tent.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
You know how, two episodes ago, when Shireen asked "Are you ashamed of me?" and he gave that long impassioned story about saving her from greyscale? I turned to DH at the end and said "You know, he didn't answer her question."
Shithead.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Shithead.
Emmett hates Stannis so much now.

Tomorrow better be pretty impressive or I think they'll lose me.
Not in a "I vow to never watch this show again!" way but more of a "Is that back on? I'll catch it eventually" way.
