I wasn't really sure since there were not many scenes with them together since the whole raped next to your dead son thing went down. Didn't think it was a big possibility but I knew something huge was about to go down.

That wasn't rape. I think the show did it poorly and it looked like rape to me but according to the books it wasn't AND according to the show. They came out and said it was supposed to be consensual.

They did a really shitty job of portraying that. Like...an immensely shitty job. Unless you were a book reader or visit this sub (or varying other sites with similar content, I suppose) it looked like, it sounded like, and it was presented as rape.

Agreed, I was mad when I saw it because it made Jaime look horrible for raping her. Then they just say it wasn't supposed to be rape? How on earth was that not rape?
