““It may be that we shall lose this battle,” the king said grimly. “In Braavos you may hear that I am dead. It may even be true. You shall find my sellswords nonetheless.” The knight hesitated. “Your Grace, if you are dead —” “— you will avenge my death, and seat my daughter on the Iron Throne. Or die in the attempt.””

— Stannis Baratheon, The Winds of Winter (via octeviae)

Stannis: Consistently fair and reasonable (Giving up Dragonstone to Renly at Robert's command, offering peace with Renly and offering to name Renly his heir, offering freedom to the Free Folk, knighting Ser Davos and taking his fingers, burnings notwithstanding)
Stannis: Explicitly shown to truly love his daughter
Stannis: Best claimant to the throne, oldest living legitimate heir to King Robert Baratheon
Stannis: Only claimant to the throne to seriously consider threat of the White Walkers, and consider the justice and the laws of the land
Stannis: Tried and tested battle commander
Stannis: Explicitly shown as still having doubts about the Lord of Light
Stannis: Seriously, the only fucking claimant to the Iron Throne who sees the White Walkers as a real threat
GoT writers: So... This guy is the bad guy, right?
GoT writers: Meh let's just make him evil and incompetent, and then send him meekly to his grave
GoT writers: Better make him fanatically murder his daughter at the first opportunity just before he dies too, despite this being completely out of character, otherwise people might sympathise with him, he needs less fans as it is
Stannis: ...fewer...

Descriptions of Stannis' eyes throughout the books

  • His eyes were open wounds beneath his heavy brows, a blue as dark as the sea by night. (ACOK, Cressen)
  • His deepset eyes regarded her uncomfortably. (ACOK, Catelyn)
  • His eyes were blue pits lost in deep hollows, and the shape of a skull could be seen beneath his face. (ASOS, Davos)
  • The king’s eyes were dark blue bruises in the hollows of his face. (ASOS, Davos)
  • Stannis turned to study him. Beneath his heavy brow were eyes like bottomless blue pools. (ASOS, Jon)
  • Stannis studied him with those dark blue eyes. (ASOS, Jon)
  • The king’s eyes were blue bruises, sunk deep in a hollow face. (ADWD, Jon)
  • Those deepset blue eyes of his seemed always slitted in suspicion, cold fury boiling just below their surface. (ADWD, Asha)
  • His eyes were sunk in deep pits, his close-cropped beard no more than a shadow across his hollow cheeks and bony jawbone. Yet there was power in his stare, an iron ferocity that told Asha this man would never, ever turn back from his course. (ADWD, Asha)
