#Sansa is being physically and emotionally abused #she has just spent an entire dinner listening to how her brother might die and pretending to be in love with Joffrey #she's been holding back tears and she's finally in her room #she looks at the mirror and can't even recognize herself #and then this woman comes in and declares she's her new handmaiden #and clearly she knows nothing about being a handmaiden #why is this woman there did Cersei send her is she a spy #will she tell Cersei she saw Sansa crying #so automatically it means she has to hold back her tears again and she needs to go back to pretending #of being that person that she sees in the mirror and can't recognize #and she's angry and she's frustrated all she wants is her mother to be there and to give her a hug #not to explain the duties of a handmaiden to a handmaiden #and finally she snaps at her #and in the end she says just brush my hair#its equivalent to her calling out for her mother #she just wants someone anyone to brush her hair #so maybe she can close her eyes and imagine that she's back at Winterfell #and instead of this stranger who might be a spy its her mother brushing her hair #like what else is she supposed to do #if she became bffs with Shae the fandom would say OMG Sansa look at you trusting everyone #you're just letting Shae walk all over you #I have a lot of feelings
