Yeah true I mean she 100% deserves a good guy. That’d be cute but I’m so for Arya x Gendry that I really hope they don’t make Sansa and Gendry happen like it would just feel like they’re giving Arya’s only love interest to Sansa and that would make me sad as hell lmao. Don’t get me wrong though, I love Gendry so much. But…
I think that in the books Sansa will end up with Sandor. His existence itself tears down everything she thinks to be true about who she’ll end up with and the pretty, courteous knights of the songs and stories she adores. He refuses to be called a knight because his views are skewed in the other direction–-seeing them as bad and almost evil and nothing like what Sansa envisions. He’s conflicted with himself and the knight he wanted to be in his childhood but it’s been muddied by the horror he has seen and endured. And he tries to protect her from the terror she’s being dealt but also wake her up to the real world.
They are beauty and the beast come to “life” and tear down the trope that Sansa is built on in the beginning and the one she counts on coming true (early on, at least): that the fair maiden ends up with the handsome prince. But as she learns, that isn’t exactly real life and happily ever afters are very difficult to come by, as Sandor knows too well. But they sort of meet in the middle between optimism and cynicism and are fascinated by each other, especially in the other’s absence.
However, I personally am not really sure at this point who they’ll have show!Sansa end up with. I think it’ll be Sandor (even if it’s just alluded to) or no one. Actually possibly Tyrion in the show but yeah.
What Sandor says: “You’re alright now, little bird, you’re alright.”
What he means: Shhh, you’re safe. I came for you because I love you and want to protect you. I killed those bastards for you.
What Sandor says: “You’ll be glad of the hateful things I do someday when you’re Queen and I’m all that stands between you and your beloved King.”
What he means: I love you. So much that I will even defy a king to protect you.
What Sandor says: “I could take you with me, take you to Winterfell. I’ll keep you safe. Do you want to go home?”
What he means: I know that you want to go home more than anything in the world. I deserted my post but I love you so much that I risked capture to come to you before leaving so I could offer to take you away. I love you so much that I want to be the one who takes you home and protects you along the way, in the hope that maybe someday you will eventually love me in return.
What if Sansa is becoming ice? All her character development turning her from a happy, joyful, summer girl to this queen of the North stronger than ever and who’s not going to take any shit from anyone.
And then we have Sandor Clegane.. he was at the beginning of the show a cold man, and he becomes more and more linked to the fire (ref to the first ep of the season 7)? (and also half of his face was burnt you know..)
Clegane asked Sansa for a song…. a song of ice and fire
