I assumed she meant the stories of boobies, but you guys are probably closer to the truth.

I don't think I am any different, not really, but people always said I was like a different person on instant messenger, so maybe I just used to come across as more of a dick when I had time to think out my responses. Now I just never think, works out alright, most of the time :P

Yeah,

Everyone loves the Starks, can't say I'm any different, Jon and Arya have always been my favourites and so far, they haven't died horribly in a rape-fire, like most of the characters I've warmed to (oooh ... warmed to, is perhaps a bad expression, given the previous one, but meh!).

Despite not wanting to get attached to them, I tend to prefer darker characters, you just can't help yourself, they are soo honest and true (most of the time) you just have to root for them.

I couldn't give a fuck about Dany since Karl Drogo pissed off from this mortal coil, I often feel like skipping her chapters.

Have a bit of a soft spot for Jaime, he's an utter cunt most of the time but you can really see how he's a product of his environment and ultimately he doesn't want to be a bad guy, but he's honest enough to know that is his. Since he got maimed I've kinda been wanting him to get back his badass swordsman skills but I fear he never will.

I don't know if he comes across more sympathetic in the books or I'm just really damaged.

I understand the Daenerys concept, but watching the TV program it's quite hard to want to skip her bits given how hot the actress is.

Also, not read all the books yet but I can't see any other possible resolution that doesn't involve Daenerys Targaryen and dragons raping the shit out of Westeros, tbh.

I.actually really like dany, went through a point where I was getting sick of her bit I'm happy with where she is going now in her story lines since dance of dragons. I have a soft spot for Jaime for simaler reasons to you.

I really liked her, right up until all the Queen in the East and the marriage alliance shit started and I realized I'm so very bored of that whole plot line, she's spent about 4 books not looking like returning to Westeros at all. I'd almost forgotten she had dragons till late in Dance with Dragons.

Now that it's all gone to hell in a hand basket over there, I wonder if she'll just move on, but I have this feeling she'll want to consolidate her forces first, which will take about a book.
