How exactly is Randyll Tarly a bad guy? I bet you 100/100 dads from any country in the world would prefer to have Dickon as a son and heir rather than Samwell. If Samwell were somehow with Randyll at that battle, he wouldve made a silly joke about how hes too fat for dragons to eat then giggle and bend the knee and shit himself out of fear. I hope that "im tired of reading the achievements of better men than me" is a start of Samwell fixing himself, but we all know its too late and he will never be more than an obese cunt
Sam writes the greatest story ever told though

Randyll and Dickon were intended to be sympathetic characters. Sam is too, although you're right about him being a huge puss. Still, he managed to carve off another man's flesh while medicating the fresh wound. That's not baby shit, so at least he's becoming more useful now.
