What's Jon? And what is Danny? - Targaryen

Right but they also have to think about who is watching it. It's one think to have incest between two, at the start of the show, most hated characters and then have it happen between the two biggest heros right towards the end. People still talk about the Queen and her brother now. If this was a total fantasy then yes I can see it but it is a fantasy with millions of people watching. I just don't see it.

At first I thought Danny and Drogon destroyed the gold and/or kept it. Yet after rewatching the episode. The Gold already made it to King's Landing. The fact that the "Banker" from Bravos mentioned the Gold Company leads me to believe season 8 will feature the Gold Company joining the Lannisters.

The Gold Company (in the books) is the Top army/mercenaries $ can buy. When you don't pay the Bravos Bank...Gold Company is sent out to collect. I believe they are known for never failing to collect.

They will and people will LOVE it. Simply because there's a huge difference between brother/sister having sex to an aunt/nephew making love...

Why don't some people realize that Dany and her troops need supplies also? It's good to take them from the enemy even better when you get them instead. Also, I doubt the unsullied care about marching from C Rock..they are probably stoked to be killing again.

You really wrote that huh? Good for you.


I don't know. I just don't think it makes sense. So do it then they found out it's his aunt and they still are in love?

I think a much more interesting story is Dany keeps telling everyone she is the rightful ruler due to her bloodline but we know if we use her logic it's actually Jon(maybe it isn't Jon and I'm confused). I think if she finds out that Jon has claim to the throne that makes for a pretty interesting story line. Lot more interesting then them hooking up

I agree on a base level them getting together would make fans happy on a second level why is it needed to advance the story? It isn't, totally goes againest everything the two characters have been saying about love and will end up leaving us with an odd taste in our months. Further more the people still whisper about Jamie and the queen why would it be any different if it is Jon and Dany. And yes I understand they would hook up before hand, but I just don't see the reason why of would happen.

I think the March puts them in a bad spot to be killed again. That's more the point.

Exactly why I was wondering why she torched all of it. She even said earlier on Dragonstone how she needs food to feed her armies.

And the North was stressing over it, as I'm sure, everyone else will be. I'm sure the Dragon has bloodlust and just destroyed everything in its path.

Ah, it's an entirely different world on that show. You literally have to pay to watch this program, so it's not like they're forcing it on anyone. Plus, absolutely no one Time Warner would have to worry about confuses that world with our own. For instance, here, knights are called "Sir". There, knights are called "Ser".
See?

I wish I could post link to the Lonely Island song about the fellas and their aunts, but THAT is a little too saucy for these parts.

They wouldn't be "hooking up", they would be falling in love.

If added, would it hinder the story from advancing? Negative.

Having them truly and genuinely fall in love. To them finding out Jon's heritage. And than questioning who has claim to the throne...this blend of storylines will truly advance GoT to epic proportions.

The series supposed to end "bittersweet"? Having some of our favorite characters die on screen...including Jon Snow...yet finish it off with a glimpse of the future - Jon's and Danny's son...the prince of Ice and Fire.

Question in regards to Drogon's Fire...

At times the soldiers get burned alive (still kicking and screaming). In other occasions they instantly turn to ash (Jamie says: "Hold the line"...turns his head and all those men are now ash).

What causes the differences in dragon fire damage? Is it the distance? Or perhaps the temperature of his dragon fire increases with time (similar to a water heater)?

Any thoughts?

I'm assuming it's just a little mistake like Jamie sinking 5 feet from shore

Could just be that after burning alive for a bit, they are reduced to ash.

I thought of that too but didn't really let it bother me. Could be that some were closer and in the flames longer than others which caused them to turn it ashes, while others got it from a further distance and weren't in the flames long enough where they were running around on fire.

I don't think they intended to have differences in the fire. I know in some cases it seemed like the soldiers turned to ash quicker, but I'm sure the edits and final version of the battle made it appear that way.

I kinda just took it as she was surprised by the road her little sister has taken and became essentially an assassin

Right, the notion of her list (and her crack about killing Cersei to the Lannister soldiers) sound like jokes to one mistaking her for a helpless little girl. Then, when you see what she can do, you know it's no joke at all. It's a good idea to be on the right side of it. The murder in her eyes is intended to be chilling, and is. The length of time they've taken to get Arya where she is now is already paying big dividends, and Maisie Williams, perfect in the role from the very start, has only gotten better and better each season. I hope she makes it all the way through, but I suspect very few characters will.

Ok so on next week's trailer we see....wait a minute I personally don't consider HBO trailers for the following week spoilers. So in case your a dweeb and do consider them spoilers...move on...

Ok so we see Jon Snow @ DragonStone facing Danny on Drogon (who doesn't seem so happy). What if...What if...at that moment Rhaegal (one of the other 2 dragons & named after Jon's father) comes to his defense and basically tells Drogon to "kick rocks". That would be epic...and if it occurs...make sure I get the recognition...lol.

I think that is just Dany returning from the fight and landing in front of Jon.

I don't think it is ment to threaten Jon anymore then any other time they saw the Dragons

Yet I believe this scene will provide us with another "Targaryen" hint. Most people believe Drogon will sense the Targaryen blood in Jon Snow. And react differently than what Danny expected. Yet I think it would be ever more amazing if you had Rhaegal sense the Targaryen blood in Jon 1st. And somehow in that scene let Drogon know...he's a Targaryen. Which would eventually lead to Jon riding the dragon named after his Father.

So assuming there's a scene coming with all 3 dragons in battle, Dany and Jon would be on two of them, most likely. Who rides the third one?
