YES, thank you. I was looking for someone else to say it before I commented. It’s not in any of the reviews I’ve read this morning, which all said he was lucky. I did not get that sense. It seemed like supernatural protection.

She didn’t get Littlefinger after that conversation. She sent a Raven to him weeks prior. She didn’t know for sure if he’d show, but she didn’t even let Jon know that it might be in play, or was even an option. You don’t think he would’ve paid attention to the prospect of 1000s more armed troops on horseback?
THAT FACE. I want to adopt Lyanna Mormont, but she would probably be the better parent so she’s welcome to adopt me if she has time. I get deep feelings whenever I see her. I love love love that she didn’t stay in her castle (which would have been a totally understandable move for a ten-year-old) and actually marched…
It was pretty clear watching that Jon was being protected by the Gods or Red God or whoever. Every time right before he was about to get gutted, something happened. The troops surged past him, the calvary arrived, Tormund stabbed someone.
Yeah, shortsighted writing. “Let’s make a woman responsible for the victory! (in a way that totally undercuts her because we’re not really invested in strong feminist writing and can’t think things through).”
For that matter, let’s talk about how dumb the Starks are on the whole. In addition to Sansa’s lack of communication and Jon’s poor battlefield strategy, we have:
HOLY FUCKING SHITBALLS. I can’t get over how incredible that episode was. I was on the edge of my seat and shouting at the tv for most of the episode.
Yeah, and if they were “violently” fighting I can very easily see the driver inadvertently ramming the accelerator in the process. I am assuming there is more evidence that is not in the story, otherwise the murder charge just isn’t making sense.
Yes! I did notice she was with the Army good on her!
I would hit it like the fists of seven angry gods.
I like it because it is never like he is talking down to them. He respects them. He never acts like, OH I AM DAVOS, I AM OLDER AND WISER. He is so humble and just relates.
The respect she commanded was absolute. And when Sansa was trying to appeal to her feminine side she was just like “fuck off” and Jon trying to appeal to her honourable side and she was just like “fuck. off.” And her little moment of vulnerability with Davos. I fucking loved her. I want all episodes with her now.
To be fair, she doesn’t have a dick either. One could charitably read Yara as suggesting that there is more to sex than “p in v.” But yes, I found myself cringing for Theon (still a weird sensation) as well.
Theon could fuck a woman in all the same ways his sister can.
She’s demonstrating the destructive power of piety to Tommen by withholding sex.
Ginger wildling could get it. Brienne needs to get on that asap.
Maege Mormont is still alive in the books! Robb sent her to meet with Howland Reed so she wasn’t at the Red Wedding. Lyanna was mentioned as being the Lady of Bear Island since it was her older sister that was killed at the red wedding.
What are you saying?! You think all Braavosi look alike?!?
I’m thinking Yara’s sexuality is pretty open, she’s like a salty Oberyn in that way. Why choose a beautiful woman on shore leave? Because she has actual boat loads of men to choose from when she’s at sea, curvy women who smell good are what she doesn’t usually have around.
