Can one of you who seems to be able to come up with some explanation for anything explain the logic behind Cersei's actions...
- She seems genuinely shaken by the undead soldier and offers to accept the truce if Jon swears loyalty to her (I think?) and agrees to never leave the North;
- When Jon refuses, she says No Deal to the whole thing, and storms out of the conference;
- Tyrion says. . . . Something
. . . . to her and she comes back not only ready to accept the truce, but pledges Lannister troops to fight with the North. . . . Except;
- She then says, Nope, I'm keeping my troops here to consolidate my hold on the South as soon as the Golden Company arrives.
I genuinely can't see a logical thread, but rather than just bashing the writing, I'll give the collective shadow writers here a chance to make sense of it.
And if you can do that, we can move on to the entire Sansa & Arya plotline, which has me similarly baffled.
