If ASoIaF ends up actually going for a happy ending its characters have thorough worked hard for. Then one thing I'm hoping for is Tyrion and Sansa to reunite. There's hints from both their PoVs that its at least conceivable.
But yeah, the thing with ADWD is just how unpleasant Tyrion's PoV has become with his self-loathing and whores obsession taken up to 11. It makes sense but its urgh.
As for Jon well I may have been affected by reading spoilers but a lot of his chapters seemed very similar. He tries to do the right thing for the watch and the realm even in the face of his position. Bowen argues. Jon gets his way. Knowing whats coming you can see him accidently driving everyone away from him. And also knowing from the other chapters his hopes about Arya are utterly face is another twist of the knife in his chapters.
I've tried re-reading ADWD but its darn hard going. Thanks for the fanfic recs. I shall try to check them out some time.
