[QUOTE="takyris, post: 3078374, member: 5171"] Ditto. He could have pared it down to one page per person (and one sentence for Arya). Everyone in Kingdom: Hey, Cersei, whatever you do, don't press that big button marked "Mess up Kingdom"! Cersei: Haha! You're only saying that because you don't want me to become more powerful than you are! But I'll show you! I'll show you all! You'd respect me if I were a man! Everyone in Kingdom: Um, you didn't just press the button, did you? Cersei: Maybe once or twice. Everyone in Kingdom: Crap. [i]Meanwhile, Elsewhere![/i] Brienne: I think the Stark girl might be up here! Reader: No. Brienne: Hm, maybe I'll go over this way. Reader: No, she's with Littlefinger. Brienne: What if I walked over here with these untrustworthy people? Reader: Look, you were the one example of a strong warrior-woman in the book. And, no offense to you, but watching you walk in what we know to be the wrong direction because we read it in the other book, is, well, not heroic. Brienne: Okay, I've been captured, but I'm sure it'll be okay. Any minute now, I'll find the Stark girl. Reader: Oh, for goodness sake. [i]Elsewhere Elsewhere[/i] Three Different People in Identical Plots: Soon, I will be king! Haha, nobody will see this coming! You see, after the battle, there's a FEAST for CROWS! Reader: Right. Title. Gotcha. Three Different People in Identical Plots: Nobody is going to see this coming. My plan is foolproof! Reader: Uh-huh. Three Different People in Identical Plots: Also, I'm going to toss in some ambiguity over gender relations, just to kind of mess with you! Reader: Could we just skip forward to the comeuppance? Three Different People in Identical Plots: Holy Killed-Offscreen Beric, a comeuppance! Who could have seen this coming? Reader: Well, us, for starters. Because we saw it coming in the other two identical plots. [/QUOTE]
