She few her dragon once in Essos, and that was unplanned - saved by Drogon from the fighting pits. also, it's a lot colder on dragonstone than pretty much anywhere she was in Essos.

Glowerers.

being targ doesn't guarantee fireproof powers. see Dany's brother.
I burned myself dozens of times as a child - enough to know I'm not fireproof. If he were fireproof, he would have realized it the first time he held his hand over a fire.

Yes. the WW will be an existential threat, and someone will try and use that fact to their advantage. The WW will be on the verge of victory and whomever emerges as the hero(es) to save humanity will be the ruler of westeros.

The WW will be on the verge of victory before being defeated at the last moment. Otherwise, no one will take a thing Jon says seriously again. That war has to be win or die.

Just throwing this out there for the sharks to chew on: Yara has been conspicuously invisible since her capture. I predict Cersei promised Theon his sister's release if he betrays Dany. Theon is the mole.

it took me a couple times reading to get that one… a girl only watched a girl, not a girl.

that explains it. pretentious americans being pretentious. :-D

spilling the news would have only pissed off King Robert. Rule 1, don't piss off the king.

Only Maesters would read it, and they'd have to fish through all the bowel movement records to find it. The maesters' job is to record history, whatever it is. they're historians, not journalists.

it happened at the same time as the throne went from Targ to Barath, and both principals were now dead, so it would have only pissed off King Robert to reveal that the love of his life didn't love him back.

I feel like the war with the dead army will take place before the rest of it. it will take several episodes to resolve, but we don't relate to them. we're not in the night king's head and he's not in ours like the rest of the players. political intrigue is better drama than mindless battles.

My favorite moment was when we were going to listen to another interminable "this is the moment we've all been waiting for, god of fire" speech, and the hound mercifully interrupts "shut your hole, are we going or not?" Thank you, thank you, thank you!

those are Dany's battle duds. she's projecting warrior now, plus she's flying a dragon around in chilly weather.

The Dirty Frozen.

Characters also manage to never say a word to each other during these week/month/year long trips.

she picked up the red hot dragon eggs from the fire without being burnt an episode before they were hatched by fire. also, burning up that building with all the Kahls in it had nothing to do with blood magic, so at least in the show, she's fireproof. They're way past where the books left off now, so anything's…

someone mentioned he got his hands burnt on a fire in castle black previously. I don't remember that, but not getting burnt by fire would be something he'd have learned about himself as a kid, living in such a cold place his whole life.

Bran knows but isn't going to tell anyone but Jon, and no one will believe him without confirmation, probably via Sam. Littlefinger is trying to turn Arya and Sansa against each other. Hopefully, they see through that. I hadn't thought about what Dany's reaction to learning about Jon's parentage. Does she continue…

my biggest complaint with the time jumps is that the dead army has been an imminent threat to cross the wall for at least 3 years now. I know they're dead and all, but geez, get on with it already!
