Is anything ever simple with Tyrion Lannister?
No. That’s why we’re glad we have Peter Dinklage to divulge just what is going through the brain of the Hand to the Queen half the time.
We know that Tyrion is brilliant at strategizing and calculating, but when it comes to emotional situations, he is less adept.
So just what was going through the mind of the youngest Lannister when he spotted Daenerys and Jon Snow getting it on during the season 7 finale of Game of Thrones?
“Ah, it’s complicated…” Peter told Entertainment Weekly. “A lot of the time with Tyrion, it’s professional and personal. Obviously, he has feelings for Daenerys. He loves her — or thinks he does. She’s awe-inspiring. He’s questioning that because he doesn’t have a good track record for falling in love. There’s jealousy wrapped up in there.”
And, on top of that, he’s known Jon a really long time, going back to their shared time at Castle Black.
“He loves Jon Snow, too. They’re the two people he has the most in common with, in a way — they’re both outsiders in their own families who have refused to follow the path their family has taken, and hopefully for the better. He’s wondering how smart of a move [Jon and Dany getting romantically involved is], because passion and politics don’t mix well. He knows the two of them getting together could be very dangerous.”
Things are definitely likely to get more complicated when the final season of GOT airs in 2019.
