Margaery is queen of gaslighting and manipulation. But Cersei does NOT play around. She's a political genius and when she sees the moment for opportunity (High Sparrow), she uses it to her advantage, taking the upper hand in her rivalry with Margaery.

Another question I have is.. "Why are literally all characters in GoT written so well?" Even Stannis a complex character as we understand he is rather too consumed by the Melissandre (who just loves dropping her robe for hot men), but he also shows affection for her daughter. Bronn and Jaime is a great duo as well and they play off one another pretty good. Lots of interesting sub plots this season.

The sons of Harpy... are not super interesting because while I do understand that uprooting a social system is going to cause conflicts, their motivation feels unclear to me. That they would kill to remain a slave? I'm not sure. Despite that, it still remains a major challenge to Daenerys and that Baristan is gone, Jorah does have a place.
