Game of Thrones.. As I've said, I've been working my way though the series, A Song of Ice and Fire. I'm currently halfway through book two, A Clash of Kings. As it stands, I think my favorite character has to be Arya Stark. The third trueborn child of Eddard and Catelyn Stark, the second daughter after Sansa. I don't know what it is about her that I love, perhaps her wildfire attitude, her desire to learn the art of swordplay as opposed to being a proper lady like Sansa. She's spunky and honorable, much like her father. Second would be Tyrion, the Imp. A Lannister. Oh, I know, not the lion. But, compared to all of the other Lannisters, he's the most honorable. As you get farther into the books you really understand how he differs from his siblings. Oh, to be sure he's first and foremost a Lannister, but unlike Cersie or Jamie the Kingslayer, or that horrible little monster, Joffery, he's got a sense of nobility. He does what's right, and not what is right for his House alone.
I do love all the Starks though, Well, maybe not so much Robb, but meh. I love Bran and Jon, who's only half a Stark, but Eddard's son nonetheless. And I am becoming a little more found of Daenerys now that she has her dragons. She proving herself to be a bit of a leader, as a true queen should be even though she's still so young. I'm not much a fan of Renly or Stannis, Robert's two brothers who have taken to claim the Iron Throne for themselves. And I am also not a fan of Theon Greyjoy. That kid is an arrogant little ass.
So, who are you going to be rooting for come the new season? Are you for the Lannisters, the golden lions, or the direwolves, the Starks. Are you for the true queen, Daenerys Targaryen and her dragons? Or perhaps you side with the warring brothers, the Baratheons. No one can possibly be for the little shit Joffery, right?

I love Game of Thrones. In my opinion I am rooting for Daenerys to me she makes the show. To go from a forced marriage to being pregnant and having to see her brother die. Which by the way was very cool! Then having to make a deal with a witch to maybe saving her husband and then in all this turmoil she loses the baby and then her husband. But most impressed me is she went into the fire that was burning her husband and came out with the dragons I was totally raised to her cause. She has an empathic side and then you turn around and see her stronger side. To me she is going to be a strong leader of her people. I have not yet read the books but I want to and probably start them very soon.

Daenerys Targaryen for the way she took her life and so turned it around. From the brother who abused her to true love, and loss. Power. She speaks of it just standing there. No one else does that.
And Joffery and his Mother and whatever for who his true dad is *Uncle* I so want them to be took down.
Not read the books, so I am only going by the show. :)
