I think you’re right but it was still a waste of time.

(it’s gonna be Cersei.)

No, no, the Tully army gets slaughtered. Thanks, Edmure!

Haha, you should watch the Misfits, he’ll win you over by the end.

...except why would it be only rumor? Tyrion found those stockpiles and used wildfire openly. Did everyone just a assume that every last drop was used up in the battle?

Jaime’s the best character left because his ambivalence is complex. He’s resisting his father’s legacy of invincibility through brutal deceit while trying to protect his family’s privilege and save his sister’s (and son’s) life. Something has got to give.

You can sneak two people out of a captured castle, but not an army.

Fucking Hound is cold blooded. Looting the boots off a hanged man while he’s still alive.

Even if the legislative is the most important branch, it is shared by 535 people. POTUS is solely responsible for the entire administrative branch as well as the military. He is far and away more important the functioning of our government than any legislator.

President’s driver would not stop, one of the SUVs behind would.

His helicopters are parked in Washington, and the POTUS is too important to risk a ride in just any chopper.

Blades are everywhere in Braavos. The bravos wander around the town at night, challenging everyone to fight.

Also, I think she’s supposed to have been in Braavos for a few years by now. There is a long break in the narrative after war ends at the Red Wedding. I know Arya is depicted as leaving Westeros after the narrative resumes, but really she went Red Wedding -> Vale -> Braavos, so that’s a year, tops. It also makes her…

For what reason would Jaqen pull such a trick?

No. Why is everyone convinced there’s a trick to the Faceless Men? They are assassins who worship a death god. Arya backed out of a contract and wants to escape with all their secrets. Of course they want her dead.

Wait. Wat?

This is speculation that gets beyond the books, but Brienne is clearly reluctant to kill Jaime. I suspect that she won’t go through with it, choosing to unite with him instead. Maybe they end up working together for the north, or maybe for the Lannisters. Could see it going either way.

You forget that Varys is a Faceless Man.

This gets beyond the books, but Lady Stoneheart is important for catalyze get the endgame: she seems to be pushing Jaime and Brienne closer together, to the point where Jaime may go over to the Starks.
