Balon Greyjoy / Stannis Baratheon / Tywin Lannister

Balon



  




















Why Marry? Because as an Iron Born lord, he has achieved his status through merit, not birthright, unlike all those dandy-ish southron lords. He’s a risk-taker and kind of  badass. Okay, granted, his risk-taking and badassery hasn’t worked out so well for him in the past (what with leading a failed rebellion and having to give his only son as a hostage for 10 years), but if you’re an ambitious pirate queen, Balon might be the man for you.

Why F***? Because you don’t want to “make love.” You want some hardcore, aggresive f***ing.

Why Kill? Because what is dead may never die, but rises again, harder and stronger.




Stannis


 
  









Why Marry? Because in previous posts, we’ve established that Stannis is pretty solid, if boring. What we have not discussed is that he is a real contender for the Iron Throne. Dear Dead Headless Ned was getting ready to write to him to tell him to come claim it—he has Ned approval, you guys!

Why F***? Because it wouldn’t be terrible, right? Sort of vanilla, the lights would probably be out (or maybe they’d be on: for the night is dark and full of terrors), and there would be zero cuddling afterwards, but you could do worse in Westeros.

Why Kill? Because, despite all the above arguments, you realize we’re talking about Stannis Baratheon. Stannis. 




Tywin
















Why Marry? Because you’re a gold digger… literally. Tywin’s stronghold, Casterly Rock, is built on a mountain of gold. Additionally, Tywin is a power player who dearly loved his wife Joanna, so he’s historically been pretty decent husband material.

Why F***? Because power is sexy and you love bald guys.

Why Kill? Because Tywin is one of the most dangerous men in Westeros and is only out for himself and his family—it would be good for the realm to take him out of the picture. (Also, because you remember how mean he is to Tyrion.)




Our Picks


Cedar: Marry Tywin, F*** Stannis, Kill Balon
Erin: Marry Tywin, F*** Stannis, Kill Balon
Jamie: Marry Stannis, F*** Balon, Kill Tywin (for the good of the realm!)

Renly Baratheon / Robert Baratheon / Stannis Baratheon

Renly Baratheon










Why marry? Because you want a nice (if somewhat foolish) husband who will probably let you have something on the side if you will permit him the same luxury.

Why f***? Because you’re a gay man. (Also, he’s certainly easy on the eyes; he has the Ser Loras seal of approval.)

Why kill? Because you're a mysterious magical shadow born of a foreign sorceress.



Robert Baratheon












Why marry? Because he’s a king, which comes with its perks. And while he’ll almost certainly not be loyal to you, chances are if you’re not a venomous hag like Cersei Lannister then he won’t be terrible to you or your children. 

Why f***? Because if you’re a woman in Westeros, he’s probably already gotten to you anyway. (Besides, he’s probably picked up a few tricks in his bedroom/brothel adventures.)

Why kill? Because you’re a wild boar. 



Stannis Baratheon












Why marry? Because there’s something to be said for stability and security. Stannis is about as stable and secure (also: boring) as they come.

Why f***? Because of these three options, you just want to pick the one that would be over with the fastest.

Why kill? Because he’s a pompous, stubborn jackass.
