I think Larys's hatefulness is meant to be interpreted as originating from resentment over being marginalized due to his disability. We never see Lyonel and Harwin being mean to him over it, but he certainly ends up sidelined by not being about to take part in what the rest of his family values (cf him having to hang with the ladies at Aegon's bday hunt). And the foot fetish stuff definitely implies that Larys's current desires are rooted in deep traumatic feelings about his disability and being able to feel powerful despite it. But, all that said, I certainly agree that the show requires us to fill in the gaps with the Strongs and they could definitely have used more screentime.
Would have LOVED if they let the Stongs cook a little longer. Gone too soon.
Larys has so much potential to be utterly villainous or a clever schemer, but it's been too long since I read F&B and I don't even remember if he was important in the end anyways.
Criston isn't from dorne he is from stormlands.
Not sure why I thought he was Dornish. Maybe he just looks it 😆
I think they mess it up in one episode and say he's Dornish, but then correctly say it later on. He's from the Dornish Marches iirc
Either way he sucks
@@marcosulzgruber6849 Yeah I think in the jousting scene someone says he's Dornish.
@@roadtotarvalon it's because dornish marches border region. Which lies in stormlands.
Good job, ladies. Totally agree on Harwyn and Cristin Cole.
Really fun discussion, hit some points i hadnt heard before, particularly about the strongs!
100% agree... s1 was kinda like 20-30 years rushed in 8 eps, we barely get the main characters developed, so the side characters were not getting good details at all. altho im not sure that's called a "plot hole"?
I think they did a commendable job putting in as much exposition as they did, but yeah, I wanted more out of the secondary characters. That aside, I don't remember what I called a plot hole but you're probably right. If it was about Larys, I'm just wanting more motivation and intrigue... which looks like it might be happening in S2.
Ser Crispen Cole is *not* Dornish, he's from the Dornish Marches, which are the bordering regions between the stormlands and Dorne, so he's actually from the Stormlands. His family serves a Dondarion. (it's a weird term, it goes back to the English Marcher lords and such, basically the border between England and Scotland both gave their lords a lot of ruling latitude in exchange for being armed to the teeth and raiding occasionally.)
Not even mentioning how weird it would be for a Dornish knight to be in the Kingsguard since Dorne isn't part of the Seven Kingdoms yet.
😆
Bonded by their ridiculousness. Haha that's hilarious.
Hahahah Laura is great.
Omg are yall excited or what?
Let's goo!!!!!
