episode reaction : tell me how you feel.
After you have watched-along at our flawless affy comms (give some love to
ontd_asoiaf and
game_thrones!), come share your thoughts about Renly and/or Loras scenes and developments in this episode:
~1x07 You Win or You Die~
I will go first (because I have no willpower and I have already seen it last week)!
Gethin was amazing, all Renly's insecurities and convictions were all over his face. I was so PROUD of Renly's speech to Ned. He started out really nervous but then he went from zero to hero. "Stannis is not a king. I AM. Do you still believe good soldiers make good kings?" (finally, Loras' subliminal suggestions pay off!) YOU GO RENLY COCO. I'M PROUD OF YOU. LORAS IS PROUD OF YOU. EVEN LITTLEFINGER IS PROBABLY PROUD OF YOU SOMEWHERE AS HE PINES FOR NED'S WIFE WHILE DIRECTING A PORN MOVIE.
Sans Ned bashing (I love my Starks!), his dismissal of Renly was one of his biggest tactical mistakes. Clearly, the hands-on war experience doesn't live up to its hype when it comes to battles of another kind. All he did was to eyeroll as if Renly was a child speaking out of turn. THWARTED BY DOUBLE STANDARDS AGAIN, NED. If this were an episode of Survivor, you would have already been voted off the island!
MOST IMPORTANTLY, WHERE THE HELL IS LORAS? Gathering the rainbow posse? Sending ravens to Papa Tyrell? Recovering from the reunion sex? DISCUSS.

Re: SPOILERS FOR WHOLE EPISODE
What the show cut was that a couple of days ago, while Renly was hunting, Loras had wanted to go on a hunt of his own - for Ser Gregor - but Ned refused him because it wouldn't have been justice but vengeance. And sent someone else while disapproving of Loras' flawless fashion sense. Varys eyerolled about how Ned fails at basic politics - making enemies of the Lannisters while making no friends with the Tyrells.
GAH, ASOIAF CLIFFHANGERS, I can't handle them. I also love Jon and his wall posse, his presence makes up for Loras' absence!
Re: SPOILERS FOR WHOLE EPISODE
I'm also loving Jon and the wall guys. I look forward to his scenes every ep, haha.
