Who do you want sitting on the Iron Throne at the end?

Bran.

Everyone else is dead.

And the throne is a wheelchair.

And he gets white eyes on the throne and the camera slowly zooms out to two pigeons fricking on the roof

Smash cut to a smile on brans face.
Cut to black.
Roll credits.

After credit scene:

A flock of birds is seen pulling Bran up from his wheelchair.

The guy from NCIS shows up and someone says, "What is that flock of birds doing?"

He looks up and says" it looks like they're...."dramatic close up and sunglasses come off"... Raisin' Bran".

Cut to black. End of show.

Screw the iron throne. Cersi stays, but John leaves Kings Landing, wheels Bran to the Neck, and Bran helps them build a new wall.

John is the King of all the entire north and becomes a Legend to future generations of southerners.

Agree with Gendry.

Jon will go north of the wall. Too much foreshadowing in the convo with him and Tormund.

He's on CSI not NCIS, but I did do the whaaaaaaaaaaaaaa when I read it

My guess, and this is only conjecture, is that Jon will take the throne. Duty above desire.

Flash back to that discussion with Maester Aemon at the Wall. He was the last true heir to willfully refuse the Throne, choosing instead to take the Black. Look at what resulted- Aerys came to rule, became the Mad King, disgraced and destroyed the ruling house, threw the kingdom into chaos for 3 decades. So much turmoil and power vacuum that the people couldn't even come together to stave off the Apocalypse, and it's only through blind luck that they made it out alive.

Aemon talked about "what I would have done to those who butchered my family", apparently impotent rage at his own decision. He finished that conversation by telling Jon that only he could decide what is right.

That conversation will weigh on Jon, and he will come to see that he has no choice but to take the role. Because the stereotypal "the best wielder of power is the one that doesn't want that power" comments between Tyrion and Varys foreshadow it too.

I'm pulling for Hot Pie. Fleabottom will never go hungry again.

Who do you want

---

1. Tyrion/Sansa power couple
2. Cersei
3. "He's still real to me dammit" STANNIS

Cersei wins and kills everyone in the process and bunts Kings Landing to the ground.

She rules over nothing and in the end realized what her pride cost.

It goes back to 7 separate kingdoms.
