You guys are killing me. Awful lot of flakes in this thread.

Jon
Tough chapter to read as it is last time Jon and Robb see each other. Cat is as much a bitch as she is when she is UnCat. Jon has to see Arya and Bran again. It would be too cruel for it not to happen.

Dany
I miss her like this. She is obviously stronger than she knows at this point, and it flashes here and there. Viserys and Joffrey should have been besties.

Ned
I wish we could have had more about Bob and Ned from their youth. Mainly because all we get to see of him is the fat shadow of a once great man and the story of the Trident. I would like to have seen him as young Storm Lord and young King. It is here that my only doubt of R + L = J comes from, though it is a small one. The way Ned avoids the subject comes off to me as he is truly ashamed. But it could just be the result of years of convincing himself of the lie he promised to keep.

I don't understand why lyanna and raeghar would be reborn as anyone. What purpose would it serve? Azor ahai is one thing, but why those two?

I agree but how will Jon get the chance to see Bran? Unless, as a couple people have theorized, Bloodraven and the Children of the Forest are really evil and Bran flees them after discovering it. I just don't see how Jon and Bran would meet up.

This is one of the points against R+L=J in my mind as well. You can also couple it with Jon and Arya being described as looking alike and the only two who look like Ned.

However, later on Ned says Arya's looks reminds him of Lyanna so that could counter the idea that Ned is really Jon's father.
