It occurs to me that Sansa is the only one who hasn't got the memo about Bran and Rickon's "demise". Anyway, she goes to the great hall along with all the other nobility for the great reckoning after the battle, where all the knighthood and lordships are handed out.
The Flower Knight Loras Tyrell becomes a kings guard. Various other people are awarded lands or places on the council.
Ooh, rather importantly, Tywin arrives and takes his place as Hand. I'm not sure what that means for Tyrion, but he's currently out of action with a head injury anyway. There's no mention of Pod.
Ser Garlan Tyrell asks Joffrey to marry his daughter, Margaery (who was previously married to the dead Renly (we still don't know who the new Renly is, and he's not been mentioned so maybe it was all just the ravings of Dontos)). Joffrey pretends to protest that he is betrothed to Sansa but everyone makes excuses for him and he agrees to marry Margaery. Sansa is over the moon at this, but later Dontos points out that Joff probably wants to use her for making bastards anyway. Does Sansa ever learn?
Littlefinger turns up and, for his part in getting the Tyrells onside, is awarded Harrenhal, even though the Lannisters don't actually have it yet to give.
Captives from the battle are given to the chance beg for mercy but one of them has a rant about Joffrey being born from incest and not being the true king. He's so wound up by this he manages to cut himself on the sharp bits of the throne. Which makes him look like not the true king. And crying for mummy in front of everyone is not very regal, either. Oh dear.
Sansa sneaks off to the godswood and Dontos tells her he has planned her escape for the night of Joffrey's wedding, when everyone will be distracted. Which sounds like a half-sensible plan. He also gives her a weird +1 Magical Hairnet of Retribution. Or something.
