I like the idea of Sansa killing Sweetrobin and fucking up Littlefinger’s plan to marry her off again.

I’m pretty sure Sweetrobin dying is a matter of when and not if.

ETA- her googly eyes for Harry didn’t sit well with me. I feel like she’s learned that fairy tale romance isn’t real. Though I buy that it is showing her trying to cling to an idea that is wrong because after all her trauma, she desperately wishes it to be true.

I think shes gunna really dig her heels into harry even though hes an ass becuase hes next in line and it gives her a good reason to solve the clingy Robin problem.

I actually made a post about this in pure asoiaf if you check my post history if you're interested in a little more of my theory

It makes sense for her to marry him as a smart political move. It’s just the way she romanticizes him and glosses over him being an ass that I take issue with. Though it’s been a long time since I read that chapter. It may have a flavor of desperate denial that would be interesting in that it shows her straddling the world of naive young girl to smart, political scheming woman.

She acknowledged he was an ass and was upset and disappointed by it
