Of course, LT. I just thought it was an Easter egg of sorts. Aerys as the God of War. Pretty true.

I've watched 12 episodes so far in the past week, still have 18 more to go to finish the series.

Is it wrong that my pants get a little tight every time I see Natalie Dormer as Margaery Tyrell?

It'd be wrong if you didn't.



Another note on my reread, as Tyrion is coming down the river with Griff, a leathery winged creature flies over them in the fog. Perhaps a dragon searching for its Targarian rider?

Just saw the new do. Not a big fan. I'd rather her shave her whole head than just a 1/4.

I think she had to shave it for her role in Mockingjay.

I didn't realize that she was in those movies. She's in a lot of shows right now. GoT, Elementary, and the Hunger Game movies.

She wasn't in the first 2.

She was also on The Tudors too.

That's where I fell in live with her, but I have to say I think I preferred her as a blond on Elementary.

Just something hypnotic about that crooked smile.

Question that I'm sure has been addressed...

Have the show runners revealed how they are going to handle the actors aging?

Most notably Bran and Arya

It's not even relevant in terms of the books at this point, in two seasons these two actors will look much much older.

I don't think this is as much of problem as we think it will be. Just basically do what GRRM planned to do and say "One Year Later" at the start of Season 5. That's why I'd end this season off with the Burning of the Tower of the Hand and Tywin's funeral at the end of this season. The only arc where I think this is a major problem is Brienne's, because you could have Tyrion waiting at Illyrio's until the time is right, Jaime only coming to Riverrun when it's clear siege and starving tactics aren't working, and Dany can just sit her arse on the throne for a while.

In case you were having trouble picturing Lady Stoneheart...

I've wondered that too. I saw a recent pic of Isaac Wright (Bran) and he's aged so much since season 3. Kid is 14 heading on 15 and looks like he'll be 6" tall not too soon from now.

FWIW I actually think the show did well with aging up the actors and Martin should've made then older in his books from the get go. It certainly makes things less weird since the show actors are older and I picture them when I read the books. Plus the book characters act a lot older than their ages anyway.

The only one of the main children who acted her age was Sansa, and that didn't last for long really since Sansa grew up quickly. It's really hard to believe that Bran, Arya, Robb, Dany, and especially Jon are the ages they are in the books.

This was posted on r/asoiaf this morning. It's from a deleted scene of Brandon and Rickard's executions. You can vaguely make out Aerys the Iron Throne. Hopefully it'll get released one day.
