Arya has been in mother-whoring Braavos for damn near three full seasons now

the Manderlys are just sitting offscreen.

Was anyone else worried that Cersei would have Ser Strong break Oleanna's head, for talking to her like that?

Wow, talk about judging on a 12 year old (her age when she met Joffery)

But why on earth would Sandor ever go back to Kings Landing?

I didn't like Neverwhere; liked most other things. Sandman remains a masterpiece.

Gaiman wrote a great piece about John M Ford; and of course he originated "George RR Martin is not your bitch."

I have never seen a Tim Burton movie that I like.
They are all so self-consciously twee, bleagh.

Ok yeah, I remember that story. Thanks.
What fan theory?

Their genesis is based on people escaping slavery. They are the entire reason Braavos is a free city. I would say that their history is deeply tied to morality.

I could see them setting up Loras for that position

"make no mistake, the dead are coming"

…Arya thinks the understudy was behind the hit on the lead actress? Aren't the faceless men the most expensive assassins in the known world, where would she get that kind of money?

Totally. Tarley has a place as big as like Casterly Rock.

She's not a better fighter

If the walkers make it South, that sword might have kept Sam's mother and sister alive.
Ah well.

i. e. the fan theory pertaining to the Night's King and his bride

the Sparrow is right - he's the worst possible opponent for a master of Soft Power

What's the deal with the Faceless Men?

I mean, she's really not demonstrably different now than when she got there.
