“It’s yours. It will always be yours.” This show is not subtle about double entendres, and that is ripped straight from every romantic drama ever.
I couldn’t hear her line particularly well, but didn’t Dany also straight up tell Jon she would have to do the same thing to his sisters? There was a LOT of plotting out in the open this episode.
Yeah the Varys and Tyrion stuff is definitely the most interesting part of the season, by far at this point
Lol saw your post in genpol and literally came over here to @ you and say just you bringing up his name made me reaaaalllly want that “more true to the story” adaptation joke you made weeks ago. The show is great imo but def suffers from that lack of mysterious side characters like Darkstar, not to mention the entire Arianne story in generalz
Yeah she basically said if Sansa doesn't fall in line she'll have to force her/remove her from the equation.
I get what you're saying and I guess it can go either way, but to me, I just never really felt anything romantic between them. Like, nearly at all outside of flirty jokes, which I don't take as being indicative of anything that deep.
They've always been one of my favorite pairings on the show, and that scene was just a powerhouse acting showcase for both of them.
"I've served tyrants most of my life. They all talk about destiny." "She's a girl who walked into a fire with three stones and walked out with three dragons. How could she not believe in destiny?" "Perhaps that's the problem. Her life has convinced her that she was sent here to save us all." "How do you know she wasn't?" So good.
Annnnnnnnd it all comes from the mind of Sansa. That girl is fucking bright. But yes, that was one of the first scenes of straight dialogue that had my heart speeding up in a "I do NOT know what is about to go down" type of way.
I mean that’s fine, I’m just showing why most people saw it coming and where it was justified/didn’t get pulled from nothing. There are tons of crack pairings that wouldn’t be justified, but this isn’t one of them. I’m still reeling from the dead talk in the politics thread.
Yeah they both clearly care about each other a good deal but I don’t at all see any hint of romantic interest there. And I understood their caring about each other being multiplied by the fact that neither of them have ever had many actual friends. Like I could easily see two straight male characters having this exact same conversation
it was just such a weird thing to have tyrion call her out for being a virgin - like i get it its tyrion and hes at heart an obnoxious drunk and theyre playing that dumb game - but a strange decision for sure, with their only intention clearly being to force jaime and brienne together with two episodes to go, seemingly to serve up a confirmation of what we already assumed without needing any of this - that jaime is a goner before may 19th is over.
I’m going to be mad at Tyrion about that for a while. It was so uncalled for. Same with his gross convo after it happened. He goes back and forth about when to be tactful and when to be awful at such random moments now. I guess maybe from the drinking getting back to normal...
Dany is definitely killing Varys next week. I want her to go down as a hero, but this might be her last mistake.
the series will end with jon awakening to ghost (600 pounds of sin) sitting at his window and he will say "come on in, don't murder me"
I have to think Tyrion breaks from Dany in the next episode. This whole episode just feels like him trying to convince himself he believes in her still. Kind of sucks that Sansa is at Winterfell and all the action will take place at Kings Landing. Wonder how she will be involved next episode, if at all. She has learned from Littlefinger and others on how to be tactical. She's probably the smartest one in the game at this point since she's not blinded by loyalty.
They showed her looking over at Jaime smiling and Tyrion’s expression suddenly changed like he realized something, prob that she was into Jaime. Not sure why he went that route though
Jon talking to the few remaining troops in the final battle march, "Gentlemen, start your engines..."
