Could season 7 be better if Margaery was quern when Dany arrives?


I've seen some fan fiction that gors around this line: Let's say Cersei didn't blow up the sept, forced to the trial and executed (with the mountain put down somehow) and Margaery would've got to complete her plan against the High Sparrow, got rid of the faith and was the popular queen with huge army against Dany's invasion.

First of all the armies would be a bit more balanced, as Dany would not have the Reach, and likely not have Dorne.

And considering her personality Margaery would probably try a diplomatic approach, potentially giving better background for mad queen Dany, who could burn the Tyrells as her enemies (instead of the Stannis-like Dany we get from the leaks that burns people alive because... the plot requires evil Dany?)

Would you prefer that plotline?

I suppose in that case you'd root for the Walkers?

reply

They're not coming. Not unless Jon the Fool in the North goes and fetches them.

How exactly? Bran and the 3ER said they are coming, and they probably know coz... plot?

Anyway considering how much of a dumb plot device te entire WW plot is, I don't see why the walkers wouldn't come on their own?

They didn't say that. Benjen speculated that the Night King would try to find his way past the Wall, because he's just another crow.
All these people are like the fire brigade telling you of the day your house will burn, because it has to right? Otherwise, what's the point?

It's a dumb plot, but that's the plot we've got. We can not deny that. Oh and the NK in the show is not a Night Watch member, he is just the random first WW.

reply

The plot we have is people jumping to conclusions.
We also had people starting wars for petty reasons and others bringing a tyrant home "for the good of the realm".

How long must it take for people to realise this story has been fooling them at every turn?

I meant Benjen was a crow, not the Night King.

Oh yes, it would be way better. Marg would kill the usurper Jon, and make Sansa Queen in the North.
And then she would abdicate and marry the rightful Queen Daenerys, she always does that. Thus she would save the combined armed forces for the war against the Others.

No!! Dany and Yara forever!!

No, Marg was amazing, but she wouldn't bring thrills, everyone is thrilled with the queen vs queen plot, Marg would help Dany and it would be way too easy.

Depends if they go with the Dany going mad plot. Now I think they are staying with sane Messiah Dany and Cersei as the villain.

If Margaery was the queen it would likely go with Dany going mad and being the villain.

reply

Mad villains are boring.
Sane villains making a mess out of sheer stupidity are the real thing: Daenerys is perfect in the role.
