that I must bow so low?
Only a cat of a different coat,
that's all the truth I know.
In a coat of gold or a coat of red,
a lion still has claws,
And mine are long and sharp, my lord,
as long and sharp as yours.

“So you know the story of House Reyne of Castamere?”
(Source: queencersei)
if you’re a lannister fan who doesn’t like tyrion or appreciate his narrative i don’t trust you
#its incredibly telling that you stan beautiful gilded fools and completely put their disabled and conventionally unattractive brother on the backburner #that you love tywin and his narrative nevermind his avarice and abuse but turn away from tyrion in disgust #that you love the amorality of the lannisters but dgaf for tyrion’s moral dilemma and how he strives to be moral and better but ultimately fails #its not just telling in an isolated interpretation but it parallels the ableism that tyrion’s family wields against him #the fact that you enjoy the others but abhor him
And how many lives have you saved?
“We all dream of things we cannot have. Tywin dreamed that his son would be a great knight, that his daughter would be a queen. He dreamed they would be so strong and brave and beautiful that no one would ever laugh at them.”
”I am a knight,” [Jaime] told her. “and Cersei is a queen.“
You want her? Go get her.

“Tired?” His aunt pursed her lips. “I suppose he has a right to be. It has been hard for Kevan, living all his life in Tywin’s shadow. It was hard for all my brothers. That shadow Tywin cast was long and black, and each of them had to struggle to find a little sun. Tygett tried to be his own man, but he could never match your father, and that just made him angrier as the years went by.”

That shadow Tywin cast was long and black, and each of them had to struggle to find a little sun. Gerion made japes. Better to mock the game than to play and lose.”
