The steel was polished to such a high sheen that she could see her reflection in the breastplate, gazing back at her as if from the bottom of a deep green pond.
The face of a drowned woman, Catelyn thought. Can you drown in grief?
She turned away sharply, angry with her own frailty. She had no time for the luxury of self-pity.

Forget about the bloody gods and lsiten to what I'm telling you
I finally appreciated her in the Season 4 finale. Her first good scene since Season 1 and proof Emilia CAN act given good material.
Seriously, can they just stop whitewashing her and START giving her relevant things to do :lolno:

So hello from the other side
I must've called a thousand times
To tell you I'm sorry, for everything that I've done
But when I call you never seem to be home

I think she was at least in my top 3 before I read the books. But after reading the books and season 4, she's not anymore. Although, she's still in my top 10.

They completely whitewash her, that's why I complain so much. Aspects of Book Dany that have been played down/completely removed-

1. Totally incompetent with ruling. Like, to the point people are trying to assassinate her because she's so incompetent
2. She has no clue what to do with the cities she conquers. She jsut leaves them to figure it out, which means they go straight back to being slave cities (brought up for approximately one scene in S4)
3. She's mentally unstable and bordering on insane at times :wtf2:

And then I also just don't like how her storyline is legit COMPLETELY filler at this point. Pretty much nothing she does in Season 4/Book 5 even remotely matters :wtf2: Neither did her storyline in Season 2 :wtf2: (You can skip every scene she had that Season and go from 1 to 3 and the plot would make just as much sense.

I do appreciate the fact Emilia does the best with what she's given though. I just think they completely butcher her character and that any real "gray" or depth her character had has been thrown out so we can have a whitewashed heroine who's presented as almost perfect :wtf2: I don't think we even got a minor flaw for her until this last season. (And just so I'm clearly not biased, I've complained to hell and back about how they've whitewashed Tyrion in S4's finale, who I like WAY more than Dany in books)

Plus, with so many multi-layered and amazingly acted characters, even if they weren't whitewashing Dany, she comes across as a weak link. She doesn't have the same depth/quality of performance to her as characters like Jaime, Arya, Tyrion (even with the whitewashing :rip: ), Cersei, Sansa, or, hell, even Oberyn (who we've only known for one season)
GOD I fucking hate her
