Brandon hates Cadsuane. He would not have said "despite its content" in that case! If it's a scene with her, it's more likely a development that doesn't please him.


Apparently he has partially changed his mind. Now he considers her to be like a crazy relative or something.


"I had a strange moment trying to answer, as my feelings on Cadsuane are ... complicaded. Many know she annoyed me when I was just a reader. Now I'm rather fond of her. Like I'm fond of a crazy relative. On further speculation, my instinct is that was how RJ felt too."


Jeez he can't seem to make up his mind. He had said something like that long ago, and then when we brought that up in debates people got him to say essentially he hated her and she'd pay back painfully for what she did if it was up to him (thankfully, the fate of characters isn't up to him! But his lack of neutrality about a character was still irrating, I preferred RJ's systematic "I like them all" on such questions) - which made us who claimed Brandon had once said he rather liked her look like fools, and now it's back to "I'm rather fond of her". So we have to assume he was playing to an audience of Cadsuane haters and more than half joking when he said he hated her and he would like her to have a painful death.

Poor Brandon, his feelings seem complicated indeed!

I don't think he will die - 27/07/2010 11:07:27 AM 872 Views
I think if Lan dies... - 27/07/2010 09:45:05 AM 846 Views
I was thinking Cadsuane *NM* - 27/07/2010 10:46:26 AM 381 Views
Also possible, of course - 27/07/2010 10:58:34 AM 827 Views

Either Lan or Rand, I guess. *NM* - 28/07/2010 08:02:37 AM 366 Views

It sounds a bit early for Lan's death - 28/07/2010 12:25:47 AM 954 Views

rand's fake death. from a POV that thinks he died for real *NM* - 27/07/2010 07:07:00 PM 394 Views
this is what i was just thinking *NM* - 27/07/2010 10:27:12 PM 347 Views
My bets are on Rand's actual death - 30/07/2010 07:40:06 AM 796 Views
Lan's death and Nynaeve's reaction would fit "heart-wrenching", Cadsuane's not so much for most *NM* - 29/07/2010 03:50:34 PM 339 Views
Certainly - 29/07/2010 05:34:11 PM 752 Views
