I just finished reading Tyrion I, ASOS on your blog and I couldn’t help but notice the way you brought up Bronn as a Social Climber and compared and contrasted him with Littlefinger. I find it interesting because unlike Littlefinger and others I never got the sense that Bronn was ACTIVELY playing the Game Of Thrones. Oh sure he’d take opportunities when they came by, but he didn’t try to manipulate people in order to get them. I’d like to know if you agree with my line of thought here. If I am right it would play to George R. R. Martin’s love of outsiders. The best player of the Game Of Thrones, the one who only goes up and never goes down, is the one who doesn’t try to play.
Social climbing and the Game of Thrones are not the same thing. Bronn doesn’t give a damn about who’s on top of the social order but rather how he can rise within it. And see how he has risen…
