When you realize that every single piece of fantasy literature relies on this premise, you’ll never be able to unsee it. Like what do you mean Ned Stark has 6 children but zero first or second cousins?

Something that didn't really translate to the show (due to both casting and writing) is that Renly looks exactly like this version of young Robert. Like, *scarily* identical. His campaign for the throne is built on nostalgia (that, and Tyrell ambition)
