A Clash of Kings Entry 6

First, finished the Bran chapter. They have this big feast with all of the different lords and stuff. It's so unfair that they make an eight year old at like an adult. Some new people come from the neck and pledge to Robb. They are dressed in all green and stuff and they want to see the direwolves.
CB Note: So unfair! Bran just wants to go outside and play!!! The green people are Jojen and Meera Reed.
JN Note: Meera and Jojen are indeed their names. And, perhaps the oath they swore sounded familiar to you? If not, it should have. I suggest you reread.
RK Note: Uh oh, where is that oath from? I can't remember, I read this chapter so long ago now... They're the ppl in green... There are so many peoples and so many religions... The Drowned God, the God of the Lady in Red, the Old Gods with faces carved in the Weirwood trees, the Gods that are the Others with the cold blue undead eyes, the Gods you pray to in the Sept, the Gods Khal Drogo prayed to...

Down to Tyrion who is touring the the stores of the alchemists of Greek fire or whatever they're calling it. Greek fire did actually exist. It doesn't get put out by water. He stops to give the city guard dude he installed instructions on how to teach people to use it and intercepts the letter from Bran offering a peace. He brings this to Cercei, who frankly is starting to sound whiny and annoying. She has discovered that Tyrion has offered Myrcella in a marriage and she is not amused. She slaps him at some point across the face when he makes some sarcastic remark about perhaps Myrcella could marry her brother. HAHAHAHA. Then she starts crying and Tyrion is upset that she won't let him comfort her. Oh Cercei, someone needs to smack some sense into you!
CB Note: Ugh, Cersei is the worst!! The Greek fire is called Wildfire. I don't really have too much to say right now lol.
JN Note: Don't you know how their are some fires that you are only supposed to put out with a fire extinguisher and not water? its like that! duh. Tyrion is the wittiest, love it! How did Cersei find out Tyrion's planzors?!?? (I can't believe cb didn't nut that i'd ask this question...)
CB Note: No, I thought you would.
RK Note: Tyrion has so many plans up his sleeves... That wildfire sounds very dangerous

Chapter with Arya that I already spoke to JN a little about. Big chapter here. The bull or whatever...he's one of Robert's bastards! They say something about him being a whore's son. Oh Robert with your whores. Also, he apparently knows that "arry" is a girl. Funny scene with him being like "well whip it out then" and Arya being like "I could if I wanted to!!!" Then asshole gets captured and Arya goes to rescue him. Too bad her other companions are morrrrrronnnnnnnns and they at first start screaming YIELD!!! I YIELD!!! Assholes.
CB Note: Damn those yielders!!! They totally screwed up her plans! I can't believe gendry got himself caught so quickly, what a newb. He's so not stealth like a cat.
JN Note: Gendry! The Bull! this is funny for us bc sometime during Game of Thrones you were like "this guy is gonna be important!" then you forgot and were just like there's this guy with a bull horn when Clash of Kings started. At the time, i wanted to write "I wonder who it is!!!! I bet you know him!!" but cb and mm made it be baleeted. So you lost the chance to nut it... Also, this makes it obvi why the Lannisters wanted him! as to the scene, the dialogue cited was certainly lol. And i loved all the yielding. how'd that yielding work out for Lommy Greenhands?
RK Note: I nutted who Gendry was early on!! Can't these people learn that yielding just gets you killed!!!

To Catelyn who is traveling to bring message to Renly. She gets there and they are apparently having a tourney! This is war you fools don't have a tourney!!! Somehow knight of flowers dude gets beaten...and by a woman! At one point Catelyn makes some comment about how the biggest tragedy in the world is an ugly woman. I lol'ed on the subway. I end with her going to a feast and watching Renly and about to go talk to him. Wonder if something good can come of this!
CB Note: That was pretty funny by Catelyn - an ugly women is pretty unfortunate in a world that makes beauty important!
JN Note: Hey now! They don't call her Brienne The Beauty for nuttin'!!! oddly, cb still swoons over Ser Loras, despite him losing to Brienne. as to the tourney during war.... thats renly for ya!
RK Note: I want to be the Kurth of Flowers, I want a cape made of flowers soooooooooooooooo badly!!!
