Tbh, I think that it is time for all fans to accept that Winds of Winter and A Dream of Spring will never come out. We will never get an ending. The only way this will be done is if George accepts defeat and recruits trusted ghost writers to finish his story for him while he steps into an editor role. Problem is that he will never allow this because it’s both an ego thing and an emotional thing. It is exceptionally hard for some artists to allow anyone else to come in and influence their vision. Especially if they have been used to having full control over their work for years. It is sad, though, because it is such a relief to allow yourself to lean on someone else and hand over control to them when you’re stuck. It is fertilizer for the creative process if you manage to find the right people. And when you’re in George’s position, it should be relatively easy to find people who can not only write in his voice, but add to the work. He already has those two OG fans (I forget their names) who knows his world better than he does, whom he’s used for coherence in his own story.

As for Tyrion, I think he had some really, really, really cool plans for him. I believe he would link up with Dany and whisper poison into her ear and influence the snap of her mind, that would make her arrive in Kings Landing as an annhilator. That’s what I believe. All Tyrion wants when we leave him in the books, is to destroy his family and all of Kings Landing and it is said many many times in the books that he’s a small man who will cast a large shadow. To me that translates into him using Dany as a weapon. They just did it in the single most retarded way possible in the show and part of why is was so retarded was because of them editing out Tysha and erasing Tyrion’s villain arc.
