Queen in The North... probably (304)
Channel: The Princes That Were Promised
Date: 2019-03-22

Sansa:
(Falls head over heels for a metaphorical inbred monster)

(Forsakes her sister to be sure that Crown Prince has no reason to no like her)

(Behaves in a childish and horrible way to her Lord father and to an older woman who has devoted her life to her faith and making sure Sansa learns to be a good noble lady)

(Blocks out any reason or honor in response to a command from her father, a man of reason and honor, and chooses a very unreasonable and unhonorable course of action)

(Somehow believes, in spite of dozens of murders and a clear-cut political and royal coup, that her prepubescent charm will suffice in reversing charges of treason against her father)

(Is infinitely more concerned with her standing in the thoughts of inbred monster/Crown Prince than if her sister is dead or missing or, for that matter, where her sister is at all)

A FEW SHORT YEARS LATER...

Jon Snow:
   WE HAVE TO SAVE RICKON... WE HAVE TO AT LEAST TRY...

Sansa Stark:
   JON, I HATE TO SAY THIS BUT I HAVE TO SAY IT, YOU'RE BEING AN 
   IDIOT. MAYBE BECAUSE YOU'VE SPENT THESE PAST FEW YEARS AT THE 
   WALL, MAKING SNOW-CASTLES, ARRESTING WILDINGS, AND KEEPING AN 
   EYE OUT FOR... ZOMBIES... I DON'T KNOW. WHAT I DO KNOW IS 
   THAT YOU WOULD NEVER BE ABLE TO SURVIVE AT KING'S LANDING. I, 
   HOWEVER, DID SURVIVE AT KING'S LANDING. BEING THAT I SURVIVED 
   AT KINGS LANDING, I THINK I WOULD LIKELY KNOW A LITTLE BIT 
   MORE ABOUT SAVING THE FAMILY THAN SOMEONE WHO DIDN'T SURVIVE 
   AT KINGS LANDING. IF ONE OF US IS AN EXPERT REGARDING WHEN IT 
   IS AND ISN'T POSSIBLE TO SAVE THE FAMILY, I THINK IT IS 
   OBVIOUS IT IS THE ONE OF US THAT DID SURVIVE AT KINGS 
   LANDING.
