Seriously , if every little meeting and conversation in the world is found out by cersei, little finger or someone, the annulment wouldn't have been such a secret

I highly doubt this happened in the books. I think he more than likely did what Aegon the Conquerer did and got 2 wives.

Man for non book readers the scene about Lyanna and Rhaegar being married went right over their heads

I watched with 3 Hodors and none caught it even though I was screaming for them to pay attention

Because only 3 people alive knew, the Maester, Ned and Howland Reed

The annulment came pretty close to the biggest drastic change in the 7 kingdoms world since Aegon the conqueror. I can see it falling through the cracks

That hasn't stopped anyone in the series from finding stuff out before

Yes you are. It's been explained to you 15,000 times in the show who Rhaegar, Aerys, and Lyanna are and their relationship to the characters. It's the one thing that drives the Maesters most crazy is that a significant portion of you don't know the difference between Rhaegar and the Mad King. So how about you pay attention, and go frick off back to the Comatose Khal Drogo thread?


I thought about it.

frick off.

Aren't you the most hated poster in this thread?

They both thought Jon and Dany were cousins

In addition to being nephew and aunt, they are also cousins. As Danys parents were brother and sister, making her father/mother uncle & aunt as well. So Rhaegar is her cousin/brother, and Rhaegars children would be her cousin/niece or nephew.

lol I don't actively participate in this thread except on show night for that reason alone.

But yeah there's a few posers in here pretending.

It's all good though. See y'all next weekend.


frick you.

I don't read spoilers and I certainly don't post them. If I wanted to read spoilers I'd have actively posted in that thread all "off-season".

Just because I'm not a fricking idiot and can form a rationale guess on what could happen (seeing as I've read all the books, novellas, etc. AND watched the show) certainly doesn't mean you can come in here swinging you little dick accusing me of posting spoilers.

Now go eat one.

Yep, I think they're really playing up Cersei being psychotic and unpredictable. She definitely has that dazed crazy look in her eye and nothing she says sounds grounded or calculated. All of her dialogue is about destroying and killing and dominating etc..

The dragon warming up to Jon was considered a spoiler? I watched that promo and I immediately thought something like that would happen since it could sense he was a Targ. I didn't even comment on it because it seemed so obvious to even point out.

Be it male-preference primogeniture or absolute primogeniture both would favor Jon.


"The sons of the first son come before the second son"


"How do you suppose this queen will react when you turn up with your begging bowl in hand and say 'Good morrow to you, Auntie. I'm your nephew Aegon, returned from the dead. I've been hiding on a poleboat all my life, but now I've washed the blue dye from my hair ... and oh, did I mention that my claim to the Iron Throne is stronger than yours?"

Ahh okay I see. I can't follow the really non obvious details of the show like that. I do remember that scene though. May need to rewatch that one

the letter Lysa sent to Cat


Thats not even the letter he asked for. The letter given to him was the one Sansa wrote back in season one telling Rob to bend the knee to Joff. LF wanted Arya to find it so he cant create tension between her and her sister, dudes a master at deception he knowns what hes doing. Though with that said, I think that it'll back fire on him, mainly because I want his arse dead
