You could be first lady of Baltimore if you marry him, thats better than the iron throne.

I have a random question,and maybe it was mentioned in the books and I missed it, but, was poisoning the spear just a last resort backup measure for Oberynn in the event he was killed? It seems if he was so intent on killing the Mountain right then and there, then the poison wouldn't have mattered all that much. I may have answered my own question but I just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing a passage that explicitly shed light on this.

Maranda Royce will give Robin his first BJ. Orgasm causes fatal seizure.

I have zero desire to live in King's Landing, seems like a shithole.

I'd live in Oldtown or Braavos I believe. Maybe keep a winter home at the Water Gardens in Dorne.

no it was to make Mountain suffer a longer more painful death.

I wonder how the poison effected the mountain during the fight...if he was already coughing up black blood after the fight, is it possible it slowed him down during the fight?

You have to pretty much go down and not be able to fight anymore. I guess it is up to the other guy whether to finish you off there or show mercy.

right which is why i think he used the poison to kill him slowly over days or weeks.

I didn't read through this whole thread, but has it been talked about that Missandei is supposed to be like 10 years old, kind of gross that they are making her a sex object

Although I guess they have to give us tits from somewhere, and the actress is 24 years old and

That's kind of what I was thinking as well, had to have had instantaneous effects

But in order to win he would have to kill him right then right?

I'm not sure if they will drag out the mountains death like in the book... I got the impression he was a few minutes away from dying in the show.
