They would be friends, with benefits like sitting on the Iron Throne and burning his wretched sister alive (If Arya doesn't get to her first).

What I expected was for Davos to chokeslam Melisandre and get pulled of by Jon. When he stopped in his tracks I was like nononono! GITHEERR! Im not advocating violence against women or anything, but she burned pure lil innocent Shireen. With any luck, Jon will send a raven to Oldtown and somehow, our favourite little…
I mean, what are you going to do to the woman who blew up the Sept (assuming the common people even know it was her), protected by the Queensguard; who hasn't left Kings Landing since y'all threw mud and food at her as she walked naked through the streets. Your high sparrow is dead, your king is dead, even your queen…
Margaery's problem (and actually greatest asset) was she played the long game, always. Too bad Cersei never informed her that in the game of thrones, you win, or you die. (Long may she reign!)
And dont forget, dragons are coming to burn that board and your little playhouse down to the ground (Long may she reign!)
I think she styled herself a bit like her father who I imagine she idealized as a proper ruler. His leathers were also (is padded the word?) with high collars and a distinct lack of frilly waterfall sleeves. Wait, not sure if her badass costume now still kept her signature sleeves from past seasons.
The first 20 minutes are short film award worthy. The rest of was just tying up loose ends or setting up Season 7 (Long may she reign). But by god that opening sequence was gorgeous.
I'd think now that they have the true heir to the Riverlands (Cat's brother) they don't need a placeholder idiot like Frey and his petty jealousies. I'd imagine Edmund would play along, maybe even get rewarded (assuming Cersei wasn't the Mad Queen, or the fact that Wights are moving south, or that Dany wasn't a sea…
Ooh, it was Bran! I thought Tyrion's the one who told the story, but yea, it was a very fitting punishment.
In season 1, Tyrion tells (I think Jon) the story of the Rat King, a commander in the Night's watch who invited the king to the castle and cooked and served him his own son. He was turned into a rat or something as punishment for killing an invited guest in his home. Guess who else did this. Thematically, Arya's…
And cutely bizarre on Fresh Meat!
I want to say it was the eye contact. I'd never think I'd be attracted to 50yo Scotchmen until he gave this death-glare to someone in the first episode. Sploosh.
I love his straight-man approach, when really he's just as incompetent at Mike at his best or Amy at her worst. Plus his teddybear cuteness wins me over.
Can we see an epic rap battle of fictional history where WeepyVeepy brings her foulest mouth to spar with FU's equally rank oral receptacle. I'd even pay on youtube to see it.
I've watched this episode like 3 times already. And I'll probably re-watch it into the night. Thank you, powers that be, for making me alive at this precise moment so I can relive the giddiest feelings when JLD writes my slashfic for me. Utter bliss.
There's the one where Bran is actually all the Great Brandons we've heard about; like Bran the builder, Brandon who was killed by the Mad King, etc. The 2nd one is that Brand is thus the Prince who was promised or Azor Ahai one of those great prophecies. I forget the last one right now
And a fitting punishment for the lost life and unneeded death of Hodor. I'll applaud it if it was all planned, but if this was just another death counter by D/D or Martins, I will be up all night pitchforking this show.
I call bullshit on using Bran to move the plot along. Really, teenagers doing things they were told not to do is a literary copout that I can't get on board with. So sure, fine, Bran learns his lesson on not warging for too long, and we the viewers get a grim death scene involving multiple innocent peeps (RIP Summer).…
I've been loving reading all these Bran theories on reddit. Bran the boy might be all the Great Brans in warg form. There's also a theory that he might have progammed the Mad King to go mad, but I dont really remember his timeline.
I agree about the dialogue. It sounds very different from other seasons, and definetly different from the books. And to be honest, after Hodor's treatment, I'm in a mood to just bash on DnD right now. The show is becoming atrociously meta and I fully expect at least 3 theories that I read on reddit to become canon.
