‘if joanna had lived the lannisters would have been normal/nicer’ WRONG i think she would have married cersei off as geographically far away as possible and then started doing some the lion in winter shit with jaime. she refuses to acknowledge tyrion because in surviving his birth she’s gone from a victim of tywin’s imp to his mother an accomplice there must have been something wrong with her to birth him like that. do not fall into the all dead mothers were really soft and niceys fallacy

"Tears," she[Cersei] said scornfully to Sansa as the woman was led from the hall. "The woman's weapon, my lady mother used to call them. [...]" -Sansa VI, aCoK
would love to know the context of joanna saying this to(/within earshot of?) cersei, who was 7yo at maximum. interesting parenting choice to want your very young daughter to be a better manipulator, instead of just treating crying as an honest expression of emotion.

Tywin & Joanna Lannister.
"Many people said that Lord Tywin Lannister ruled the Seven Kingdoms, but Lady Joanna ruled Lord Tywin"
It's giving "Don't you like my pet lion, lord King? (derogatory)"—Joanna to Aerys.

Tyrion had never known his mother.
Her mother had died bringing her into the world while the storm screamed outside.
I have no rights, no name, no mother, and now not even a father.

A tear rolled down her cheek. The woman raised her hood again and turned her back on him. Jaime called after her, but already she was moving away, her skirt whispering lullabies as it brushed across the floor. Don't leave me, he wanted to call, but of course she'd left them long ago.

with sunlight in her hair
Lady Joanna was said to have been beautiful, with sunlight in her hair. As a child, Tyrion used to dream that had his mother lived, she would have loved him.
But Tyrion never dreamed of his mother anymore. Doubtless she would have been as repulsed by him as his father was.
And so I killed her he thought, so that she wouldn’t hate me.
But Tywin Lannister always paid his debts and the murder of his wife was one he did not take lightly. He laid in wait and bided his time.
I took his wife, so he took mine.

Lady Joanna Lannister of Casterly Rock.
Only Lady Joanna truly knew the man beneath the armor, and all his smiles belonged to her and her alone. (TWOIAF, Targaryen Kings, Aerys II)

From left, Princess Rhaella Targaryen, Lady Joanna Lannister, The Princess of Dorne. All pre marriage
(My personal headcannon is that they were friends, and Rhaella sent Joanna away to protect her from Aerys)

Joanna, looking at the camera for the gender reveal : I'm your mommy and I think you're going to be a pretty boy.
Genna : I'm your aunt and I think you're going to be a boy.
Steffon : I'm your godfather and I think you're going to be a beautiful girl !
Tywin : I'm your father and I think you're going to be a disappointment.
