I am not that bad.
you know what? when i think about Theon Greyjoy's treacheries to the Stark family... I must say... in some ways, i would consider him an equal if not worse monster than you. In your defense, you're 13.. obviously lacking in both wisdom and maturity. Greyjoy? He's probably about 19, and he totally knew better. He's just arrogant, egotistical, and was willing to screw over the people he knew best.
like.. i mean... I could see Your Grace shaming Sansa for her witnessing you being shamed by her sister. Ok. But theon? his treacheries in the north are really dispicable. You wouldn't look for such cruelty from the hands as someone such as him; and yet... he has done them. I almost am afraid to read what further acts of backstabbing he has yet to exact.
Thing is, Theon doesn't enjoy it, and besides backstabbing the Starks his douchiness sort of ends there.
Plus, once you get to A Dance With Dragons, you start to REALLY feel bad for Tyrion, to the point that you may even regret what you just said (I'm just going under the assumption you've not read the last book yet)
If you really, REALLY, want to know what he goes through to become such a sympathetic character, allow me to explain.
(Spoilers in White)
Theon is taken captive by Ramsay, flayed alive, then as the skin around his fingers start to burst out into pain and sores, he tries to bite his own fingers off to end the pain. Ramsay gets annoyed that he didn't come to him begging to lose his fingers and so has almost all of his teeth broken in for it. Then, after losing most of the fingers on his left hand and a great deal of his toes individually, he's trapped in a dungeon for days and forced to either eat rats alive or starve. He's released after a few more weeks, and "trained" to become Ramsay's new "Reek". He is given dirty clothes that he is told he cant change out of or clean on ANY occasion, and you constantly here him mentally "Remind himself" about what his "new name" is. ( "Reek. Reek. It rhymes with weak." ) He goes half mad and is afraid of ANYONE who's kind to him because he's worried it's just Ramsay trying to test if he's loyal.
Seriously, you almost want to give the guy a hug and tell him it's okay after all that.
