The freefolk sub is 90% LOTR posts right now. It’s such a hot mess and being on the outside looking in is hysterical to me.

 

It was so unexpected and also weirdly fitting. Killed by his own creation. Instantly.

 

I would really like to know what happened to him as well. But I doubt we see him this week. Unless he rides in to save the day somehow with an army of riverfolk lol

 

Give the Twins to Hot Pie.

 

They wanted to rush the last 2 seasons so they can make the next star wars saga...

 

Qyburn’s going to become a fan favorite unfathomably late in the game and I love it. Freaky dude, totally loyal, hilarious death, SUDDEN FAME.

 

All of the Free Cities are governed a little differently I believe. Pentos is basically an aristocracy IIRC, where rich nobles govern the city. Volantis has the Tigers and the Elephants (I think?) and theyre basically two different political parties, but then beyond them there's like a counsel of elders or something like that.

All this talk is making me want to read The World of Ice and Fire again lol

If we do get a Jon abdication scneario and the lords have to come together to figure shit out, it's possible we see him. But technically I don't think he's lord of anything right now. Freys were the last lords of the Riverlands and Edmure last we knew of him was being shipped off to Casterly Rock to live as a prisoner basically, no?

 

That sub is such a waste of time. It's essentially /b/ but for GoT.

 

I just went to that and saw the first post was spoilers so i nope'd right out of there lol

 

i have no idea how reddit works and im glad

 

Reddit is great for a lot of things if you're willing to tweak what you do and don't want to see.

 

Oh it’s totally trash. They do usually originate a lot of the best memes, but other than that and the few legit leaks it’s only good for laughing at. They know how to melt down better than the other subs.

 

Visually the episode was stunning.

But story wise everything was trash after Dany started burning the city, minus the Arya and the Hound stuff.

I CANNOT fathom Dany allowing the Dothraki and Northmen to reave the city like they did, regardless of the fact that she was burning it down. Like she absolutely would have given them specific orders to never do it.

 

Queen Sansa sure as hell wouldn't have allowed it.

 

I do have to give them credit for going full scorched earth this week. That's a pretty ballsy move.

 

Love this

 

I will always hate the functionality of it and especially how toxic it is, but it does work very well as an aggregator on tons of different subjects and there are some really great small subs that are very positive and useful. Those are the only ones I usually participate in, everything else is just lurking.

 

As much as I dislike the way it was handled, I am now hoping that they fully stick to this and don’t try to undo any of it next week.

 

I can't even imagine how they'd undo anything that big, haha

 

I don’t mean everyone suddenly being alive again, although the number of Dothraki and Unsullied after each battle does seem to keep growing at an alarming rate. I just mean where the characters are and whether or not they have been changed by the events or what this specific action means in the story.

 

Something that makes Dany make more sense that I just thought about: Aerys II started out as a good, well liked King that seemed to have landed on the right side of the coin flip....until he was betrayed with the Defiance of Duskendale.

 

Is coin flip going to be the new subverted expectations?

 

Which amde me go read his ASOIAF wiki...

Tell me that doesn't sound like Dany a lot.

 

It’s like poetry, it rhymes...hopefully it’ll work

 

Dany's fall exemplifies the Shakespeare quote: “The abuse of greatness is when it disjoins remorse from power”. In this essay I will
