I saw a lot of people complaining about the dragons being 'protective' when Dany and Jon were making out at the waterfall. I don't think this is the case. I think the dragons know that Jon is a Targ - i.e. why they let Jon ride them in the first place, and are essentially telling Jon "Yo this is your Aunt that you are boning" - I think they are much smarter than we give them credit for

There's some kinky shite going down in Westeros, and always has been.

Dragons and Targs are cool with the incest.

But, if you think about some things "literally," Dany is the Mother of Dragons...she made her kids watch as she got dicked down by someone who will later be revealed as her uncle. Chick is nuts!

it is the "lannister" crossbow.

joffrey had it made, and showed it off to margaery.
joffrey used it to kill ros.
tyrion used it to kill tywin after he found it in tywin's room

Could still be Joffrey's that he got for his birthday, where he shot up the whore in his chambers

Ros, not the whore. Those perfect tits deserve to be remembered by name.

At the close of season 7, we were treated with scenes of winter coming to the capital, snow covering the map on the floor of the Red Keep.

Gucci mane had a show in fleabottom but has since moved on

The problem with GoT is how big and mainstream it has become.

There are people that go their rocks off for the first few seasons being in the know, book readers.

now these people are having to discuss this show with everyone from their parents to idiot teenagers. (I am one of these people)


The other problem is the almost 2 year wait in between seasons. People's expectations are astronomically high. The reunions in episode 1 have played out in our heads a certain way, and its natural to be disappointed when we see them on screen play out differently.


- Drogon was absolutely looking at Jon because of the targaryan blood, not because hes cockblocking
- Bran DGAF that Jaime pushed him out the window
- Cersei is truly alone in king's landing. There is no fricking telling what she actually has planned with Bronn. She is becoming the Mad King 2.0.

With this and your post in the one in the feminist thread, I think you're a little confused on the ages

yes, and it will end the same way as MK1.0

Them getting married before they all might die is definitely something people would do in that situation. Honestly, them being related is about as big a red flag as you can get to indicate that things aren't going to end well.

People get hung up on this but the Targs intermarried all the time.

And I didn’t hate this episode, but it threw out a top 3 stupid part in the show. Send Bronn to kill his two best friends.

---

The fact that you keep repeating this tells me that you have zero understanding of how the minds of the characters at play work.

Cersei isn’t just trying to kill her brothers. She’s trying to send a message too. Her message is that “I’m so powerful that I can even get your friends to kill you.”

She didn’t pick Bronn cuz she thought he was the best assasin, she picked him cuz she knew that it would hurt her brothers more to die at the hands of someone they believe is there friend rather than a stranger.

IT’S A POWER PLAY.

We get that it won’t work. That’s not the point. The point is to show that 1) Cersei is done with her brothers and wants to send them a message as they die and 2) that Cersei isn’t as powerful as she thinks she is.

You're right. I just feel like the dragons know that Jon is a Targ. Maybe this isn't the case and they actually are just pissed about someone diddling their mom, but I don't want to paint them as that simple. I guess we'll never really know what the dragons are thinking though, lol.
