I'm not in denial, I'm not invested in those two characters enough to gaf at all. But I know what I've read, and I know what I've seen. And you are full of shit.

[(Anonymous)]

You are in incredible denial if your take-away is that Sandor's interest in Sansa is just protecting an asset. Not even Fauxkaren, who loathes Sansan, would argue such an insipid thing.

[(Anonymous)]

I don't think Sandor sees Sansa as only an asset to protect. I also think he sees her as rape-able, powerless child.

But I don't think you actually understand words or logic or reality so I'm going to walk away now.

[(Anonymous)]

Sandor's "protection" of Sansa goes well beyond preserving an asset. When Joffrey beats her, Sandor rasps "Enough." When Sansa lies to Joffrey, Sandor covers for her. When she's scared of Boros, he puts a hand on her shoulder and tells her he is nothing to be frightened of. When he flees the city, he wants to take her away to keep her safe.

I mean, how poor does your reading comprehension have to be to miss this? Sansa's the only character that Sandor makes any real attempt at bonding with in his own tsundere fashion.

da

isn't it possible that all of those things were him just trying to do the right thing? I don't think those necessarily indicate romance. Couldn't he just not want a kid to get beaten or killed? I mean, he tried to get Arya to safety, does that mean he was in love with her?

[(Anonymous)]

Wasn't "little bird" her nickname because she was a prisoner in a gilded cage?

[(Anonymous)]

I mean, he tried to get Arya to safety, does that mean he was in love with her?

Obviously. He's in love with everyone. He's a hopeless romantic.

I've read the books and I just never was able to see any romance in it at all. I saw it more as Sandor sees the entire world as evil and cruel and dark and grim and Sansa is this little pure flower that doesn't fit with his worldview at all, and he feels an urge to protect that because he feels that it's something precious even if he doesn't understand it.

I think that's why he yells at her and tries to shock her, because he doesn't want her to be destroyed by how horrible the world is if it all hits her unaware, and he also thinks that her belief in nobility and the good intentions of other people is naive and stupid and wants to teach her better so she doesn't wreck herself. She senses the hurt that his life has put on him and feels sympathy for him at the same time she's scared.

It's a complicated relationship and I find it fascinating but I just cannot see ANYTHING romancy about it no matter how many times I go over their scenes together. I have no idea WHAT you could classify their relationship as, but I cannot see it as romance.

[ibbity]

I see him as having sort of "big brother" type feelings towards her. I read that passage over and over trying to see the romance and it just was not there for me at all. All I could see was this middle-aged guy feeling desperate and protective and scared for this little girl he knows is in for a hellish ride in life, partly wanting to smash her ideals so she won't be as destroyed when the world smashes them for her and partly wanting to preserve that innocence because it's so rare and precious.
