You find her conduct/personality to be consistent with what she was like when she was alive? I pretty much don't. Her treatment of Brienne, especially, seemed very unCatlike.
Though I think he's generally characterized as a good guy, it's more that he's not an evil/bad guy, rather than being actually "good". His redeeming features are relatively few and far between.
All that said, I've come to the conclusion that you're either completely whacky in general, or at least have a very, very odd view of these characters. Think about it, you're sitting here defending Cercei and demonizing Cat. Strange....at best.
Agree to disagree I guess. |
No, it's not terrible. She convinced her son and king to give command of his army to the head of the house which was known for flaying Stark kings.
After how she treated those outside her own circle when she was alive (Petyr Baelish, Jon, Tyrion) I don't find it inconsistent for her to act the way she does after a traumatic event. She does whatever she feels is necessary to protect her children, and at this point that means ridding the world of as many Freys and Lannisters as she can. Remember, she only hung Brienne because Brienne refused to kill THE Lannister.
Hey, know who else does whatever she feels is necessary to protect her children?
I'm not trying to defend Cersei and demonize Catelyn, I just feel they're pretty much the same. If Catelyn had access to her own Qyburn, and felt that giving him people she didn't care about to experiment with would help protect her kids, do you think she would shy away from it?
