Tyrion Lannister gets a cookie
headmeetsdesk:
No, you’re right, not for the “Not raping the 14 year old girl” part - and none of this to say that Sansa ‘owes’ him anything; Sansa owes the Lannisters, as a whole, absolutely nothing.
But Tyrion A) pits his own agency against the commands of his ruthless, abusive father, refusing to let Tywin completely dictate his actions and B) openly threatens one of the most powerful people...
