Ned was a fukking idiot. Even after all that shyt had he just chosen Rhenly everything would’ve been different.



You're saying all he had to do was something he wouldn't possibly have done due to who he is as a man/character though. Renly had no claim to the throne, it would have sparked a war and I'd imagine at some point Ned would still find himself getting betrayed by Littlefinger.

Robert's injury/death was a checkmate move, The only potential thing Ned could have done is said nothing to Cersei/Littlefinger, and either sail to Dragonstone or flee to the north. Sailing to Dragonstone would prob be the best bet since it would be easier for Lannister solders to intercept him on foot/horseback. So let's say he got to Dragonstone, warned Stannis, pledged the north to him, and then sailed to Winterfell. The wrench in the plan would be Melisandre though. She was already on Dragonstone poisoning Stannis before S1/Book One ends. Would Stannis have Ned arrested or executed for not pledging himself to R'hllor/Lord Of Light? Would he compromise in order to secure the north? Who knows but I'm leaning towards him choosing Melisandre over Ned.

Carcetti was a cold piece of work. He was just as calculating in the books. Probably more so. His Only weakness was Catelyn.
And his stupidity at the end. Dude wanted to play Arya and Sansa against each other just for shyts and giggles :heh:

Cat was dead... Arya wasn't believing his bullshyt and was actually there at KL when shyt went down. And now he wanted to pipe Sansa and marry her

He had to get Arya up out the paint. He would have done it too, if it wasn't for meddling Bran.. Sansa was two seconds away from having her clipped when she went to ask him what really happened

Would’ve made no sense to call Stannis with Robert still alive though



And since it’s season one instead of eight it would have taken stannis as long as it did to get to KL any way :skip:
You're forgetting that Renly has Storms end in S1. All stannis has is Dragonstone. That ain't enough to beat the Lannisters and Goldcloaks.

The Vail already said they ain't fighting.

He didn't though.


And he had numerous chances to lock Sansa in/fukk her. If Sansa were ever going to have him killed it would've been when they met up and she was with Brienne. Sansa had some kind of weird ass love/stockholm to him and wouldn't have had him killed if he could just chill.

He and Varys for as conniving as they were were never really seen as threats and only got killed because they couldn't sit their dumb asses down and stop moving around doing shyt. Same should've happened to Tyrion at the end......But plot armor.

"He who controls the King controls the seven kingdoms" With Joffrey, Jamie, and Cersei enslaved what could Tywin really do then?


Not to mention the north would be with them and I'm sure the gold cloaks would've flipped sides just like they did even though they knew Joffrey had no rights to the throne when Cersei tore the paper up.
