ASOS and Bollywood love
Ok, I can’t stay away from LJ any longer, Sasha has gone to her friend’s house for a day, I can’t work because I need a remote connection to my work computer and I can’t get it as my job-share-partner is using computer right this minute.
Not many things are happening recently except for my newly re-discovered love for Bollywood movies which started with unforgettable photo essay from
dangermousie. I watched “Elaan” and “Hollywood/Bollywood” and wonder if anybody has a good Indian film to recommend. It seems Sasha loves Indian films too!!!
ASOIF I am reading slowly and enjoying "A Storm of Swords"
Jaime Loosing his hand! And he, who is “alive when fighting” **sobs**. But it must have been as atonement for him for the Bran . **sigh**. Bath scene – it is just one of these scenes I can read 1000 times, so HEARTBREAKING!
Brienne How clever it was to throw stone on the Tully’s boat. Yay Brienne! She is so unbelievably great!
Catelyn and Robb Here comes THE RANT – I know Jaime had to be released and HAD to be travelling with Brienne (this is such a GREAT storyline for me), BUT - releasing him is a beyond silly thing to do in the war. Jaime was Robb’s greatest asset. And Robb marrying some Jayne and forgetting his promises to Freys is a suicide. Plus it seems to me that Jayne and her family were serving Lord’s Tuwin’s purposes and he orchestrated it all.
Cersei Hurting poor baby Tyrion! EVIL woman!
Sandor He does have a destiny, Beric’s sword was broken for a reason and this must signify that the God of Light has a purpose for The Hound. I have read ahead where Arya left him for dead, but of course Sandor will not be dead, but **shrugs** is he going to be as Beric, as zombie **shrugs again**?
Stannis and Melisandre I really feel quite revolted by the two of them, but the power of Melisandre’s magic is amazing, and she wants to fight the Others. She is the only person in the whole kingdom is worried about The Others. Also I find it interesting that Stannis and Melisandre are behind the Catelyn’s and Robb’s murder, and Joffrey’s murder and behind everything, it seems, where everybody else thinks Stannis is good for nothing ..
Prophecies of the dwarf woman I am blown away by them:
-Who is a man without face standing on a bridge with the one-eyed crow on his shoulder?
- Catelyn is going to get back to life? **shrughs**
-Why dwarf woman saw Arya as cruel heart?
Sword of the Morning and Ashara Dayne O, I find them so fascinating! Sword of the Morning is totally romantic name and I am in love with him already. And it is SO interesting that Ned seems to have some relationship with his sister Ashara, and may be Jon is Ned’s son after all?

This what set me off as "Aww, ROBB, WHY ARE YOU PLAYING A PAWN IN SOMEBODY'S HAND?" He did have a chance, if not for loosing Freys and not for Edmund messing his battle plans. But then - Stannis would have taken the city? And could he live Robb alone? Or would Robb bend to Stannis (Purely hypothetical ;)
Of course Catelyn didn't care that Jaime was in danger; she just wanted to save her girls. But I totally do not blame her for that. I like her for that too, i just don't see it happening the way she was going about it. Cersei realised Sansa's value very well, and all the danger of the road ;) The only thing i think Catelyn was very acute to recognise is the strenght of Brienne's character, i am blown away that even after Jaime's return to King's Landing Brienne was looking for Sansa. WOW!
And I am fine with disagreement in discussion, darling, you KNOW that
SURE! I just mentioned it because i find it strange to discuss things without seeing person's face, i am always not sure what messages i give, when you speak face to face, there is a body language and there is a feedback, and on Internet you have to state explicitly ;)
As you see, the "Red Wedding" theme really gotten me in ASOS. And as i said before, i sort of grudgingly admire Lord Tywin. I am a little upset with his demise, could not Martin find a nice lady for him who will soften his heart? I am silly like this.. ;)
