Tywin doesn\'t torture or threaten Arya, so he doesn\'t realize she\'s a Stark and doesn\'t use her for his own goals which would be quite different than her own plans, so the affection of the plot is rather glaring. And while the fact that he is willing to chat with a bright coup bearer may reveal new facets of Tywin\'s character, the fact that he ignores information that could be of use for him, sacrifices his PragmaticVillain characterization a big time. Tywin had no way of knowing she was a Stark -- she could be a member of a minor noble house (he still could marry her off or use to influence her family), she could be a member of a major noble house lost in the midst of the war. Tywin ignored the possibility of political gain of an unknown size to chat with a child. I would say that\'s pretty OOC.
