I actually think that she sees a very young Arya in Brienne, a girl who isn’t a girly-girl who wants to get out there and fight. She sees a warrior in there. That’s exactly what her daughter wants to do. She doesn’t want to learn how to sew. She doesn’t want to be married to somebody. She doesn’t want that. She wants to get out there and be with the guys. She wants to be out hunting, and fighting, and sword-playing, and doing all of those courageous things. – Michelle Fairley
