#c'mon that's such a Jorah thing to say | Explore Tumblr posts and blogs

I recently read ASOIAF and on paper Daenerys Targaryen sounds like a wonderful person and ruler. But the more I read, the more her story goes down the line of uncanny valley. Does she know anything about her own family history? Like, I know she was influenced by dumb Viserys but c'mon, she should have tried to get more stories from other people by now. Seems like she just can't tolerate anyone say anything negatively regarding her family. Which I find hysterical as she herself has first hand knowledge how awful Viserys was.

I'm half convinced this is blatant troll bait but I have homework I don't want to do so let's break this bad boy down:

But the more I read, the more her story goes down the line of uncanny valley.

I think you're misusing the term uncanny valley. Uncanny valley generally refers to humanoid objects, such as animated characters or dolls, verging on just enough human-like to unnerve and disturb the viewer. Ie. a robot with some human-like characteristics is cute, but an 'almost' human android is creepy.

I think you are trying to reference another term entirely- cognitive dissonance? That's when someone explains things away that contradict their world view, or reject new information that conflicts with their existing world view and beliefs.

Does Dany have cognitive dissonance in regards to her family history? I don't see any proof of this in the text.

To be honest, the answer to your question, "Does she know anything about her own family history?" is quite simple. No, she doesn't. For 14 years her only source of information was her unstable and abusive older brother, who repeatedly fed her a very narrow range of propaganda regarding their immediate family history and the causes of the Rebellion.

There was no one else to contradict this or offer any other information on the family. What was she supposed to do? How was she supposed to educate herself?

After Viserys' death, who does Dany have to ask about her family? Jorah, who is attempting to groom her into a sexual relationship? When Barristan reveals his identity, he tells Dany that her father was mad (among other things), which is a stinging shock to her. Barristan senses her discomfort with these revelations and offers to tell her more later, and she agrees.

Dany stopped him. "Do I want to hear this now?" Ser Barristan considered a moment. "Perhaps not. Not now." "Not now," she agreed. "One day. One day you must tell me all. The good and the bad. There is some good to be said of my father, surely?" (Daenerys VI, ASoS)

It is neither of their faults that the political situation is so rocky that they don't have time for an in-depth breakdown of the family history. Even then, Barristan is from from an unbiased source himself.

"Jaehaerys. This old man knew my grandfather. The thought gave her pause. Most of what she knew of Westeros had come from her brother, and the rest from Ser Jorah. Ser Barristan would have forgotten more than the two of them had ever known. This man can tell me what I came from." (ASoS, Daenerys VI)

Questions? She had a hundred questions, a thousand, ten thousand. Why couldn't she think of one? "Was my father truly mad?" she blurted out. Why do I ask that? "Viserys said this talk of madness was a ploy of the Usurper's . . ." (ASoS, Daenerys VI)

Does this really sound like someone who 'just can't tolerate anyone say anything negatively regarding her family'? If Dany was truly opposed to hearing anything negative about her family, why would she want to ask questions? Why would she tell Barristan to tell her both the good and the bad?

I'm confused as to who you think these 'other people' Dany should have gone to are. She's not exactly surrounded by Westerosi, never mind people who knew her parents and brother.

GoT S8 Episode 4 "I don't even care about the title of this" Recap

So here I am once again (I didn't do a Recap of the battle episode cuz frankly I'm not a huge fan of battle stuff, and it was very messy the way D&D executed it, there was not much stuff to analyze so yeah) and well the way some people talked about Jon yesterday really had me worried (and hey if you hate him now or don't believe in him it's fine, not your fault but the writers') but when I watched the episode I got a completely different impression (which is fine I mean sharing a ship doesn't mean we have to agree on every single thing) and I will talk about it.

Oh yeah I am not a fan of D, nor of aegony and I still believe in Pol! Jon and jonsa so if you are not intrested in reading about any of that this is not the Recap for ya.

Funeral & Feast

From the very beginning of the episode I was like 👀👀. We get a shot of Ser Jorah's corpse and D mourning him and then we get the exact same thing with Theon and Sansa (drawing this parallels between them is truly intresting) but we only get Jon's sad expression after we get Sansa sobbing which makes me think he was watching her (this is also supported by the fact that D was not in his direct line of vision and the fact he is not standing anywhere near her in that moment or afterwards).

Jon gives a pretty emotional speech about the fallen and the future generations, and the director made sure we get a shot of Sansa behind Jon as he talks about the future generations (aka children) when a more open shot would have made it more vague and meaning about everyone's children and not just Jon & Sansa's, I mean for me the foreshadowing was strong.

The pyres are lit, and I guess this is where the rumours about WF burning started (gosh I am so glad they didn't had D burn it) .

Everyone is celebrating the victory in the Great Hall, everything starts on a serious note, until Gendry gets up the benches to go looking for Arya, and D calls on him. Ok serious talk, did any of y'all notice that look of worry that passes between Jon and Dadvos??? Like they were waiting for the worst, why in the Seven Hells would Jon expect the worst out of someone he supposedly loves and believes in? Cuz he does not. And yeah he is relieved but not relaxed when she names him Lord of Storms End (k seriously i thought d&d had completely forgot about the riverlands,stormlands, westerlands,the Reach, dorne, and everywhere else that was not "plot relevant" ) and the fact that no one even knew who was ruling there like? ??? Didn't Jon sent letters to every lord in season 4 or 5??? Like how do they not know this???

Back to Jon, he looks puzzled like he doesn't know what game she is playing. While she is patting herself in the back for getting rid of a man that had a better claim to the throne than her. Tyrion is a dumbass, cuz D can't name Gendry shit until she actually has the alliance of the stormlands but whatevs, she is not a politiciiian she is a kweeeen.

So yeah the mead and wine get passed around and everyone seems to be having a good time except for 1 person: D

Why is this? Well because she is not their hero, not really, and she knows, I mean she watched the NK walking through her flames, if not for ser Jorah she would be dead and that can't be cuz she is special she has to be cuz she is the last Targy except now she knows that is also not true, and we get her looking at Jon.

And Jon??? Well he doesn't give her the time of the day (again if he loved her so much he would be spending time with her, trying to include her in the conversation with him and his friends) cuz he is lauguing and drinking with Tormund and Sansa (honestly Sansa was so flirty with that "c'mon, do it in believe in you" like i have used that same line girl what), he turns around for a second and smiles at d (he is having a good time and why wouldn't he smile, she is not the one that made him smile he is smiling cuz he is happy and on his way to getting drunk) thing is Sansa catches him sharing a smile with D and her reaction is so out of proportion for a "sister" when she was all smiles and heart eyes not 2 seconds ago, her smile disappears and she leaves, what is Jon's reaction? He turns around and watches her leave super confused, D is smug until she realizes Jon didn't really pick her, she didn't won cuz he still is looking at Sansa and not back at her.

Things get crazy with Tormund and he shouts for anyone to hear that Jon is a "King" and then only then Jon turns to see D's reaction, and she gives him a forced smile that he returns because he doesn't want to antagonize her. By this point Jon is making 0 effort to resume their "relationship" but also doesn't want to be percived as her enemy.

And we get a terrifying look on D's face as she sees everyone around her celebrating without a care for her, their kween, cuz they would rather have Jon or Sansa, and she can't take it, so much she has to go.

Now we get a drinking game between Tyrion, Brienne, Jaime and Pod, is all cool until Tyrion mentions the fact Brienne is a virgin, she gets upset and leaves, Jaime goes for her and Tormund has the realization that he has no chance with Brienne. Now he goes to complain to the Hound who gives 0 fucks about his lonely soul, and suddenly everyone gets a sexual partner (everything is very heterosexual of course, we know the only gays in westeros are dead or in the Iron Islands) and we see Sansa watching (this is what she wants that she doesn't have, she doesn't want sex she wants romance but she can't have it with the one she wants) and she has a 1 on 1 with the Hound that I have already talked about.

Gendry finally finds Arya shooting arrows on her own, and tells her the good news, not only that but he proposes. And oh, I knew Arya wouldn't want to get married but this was hard to see, we still get a kiss so she loves him but that is not the life she wants for herself.

Aegonyyyy & "The Truth"

Jon is looking miserable in his room. I mean if anything has been consistent with Jon is the fact that he wants to deal with everything on his own, but the fact that he has to deal with this whole existential crisis and the up coming war must be exhausting. D enters his room unannounced (fooking rude, but I don't expect any better cuz she has never shown him respect at all, even Jon knocks when entering the office he shares with Sansa) he stumbles up (he is drunk totally unprepared for any conversation she wants to have) and gives her his condolences about Jorah (meaning this is the 1st conversation since the parentage reveal they have, and D is the one to iniciate it not Jon, again nothing about this makes me think he loves her) he doesn't hug her or approach her any further, as always D is the one forcing intimacy between them, honestly we get no real reaction from Jon when she tells him Jorah loved her but she couldn't love him cuz she loves Jon.

One of the cornerstone's of a romantic relationship is the frist time someone declares their love, and usually when one half of the pairing doesn't say it back it screams trouble. A kiss does not equal love, and it's not a good thing to do when someone is pouring their feelings for you. Now Jon does seem more into the kiss but as the director's commented he remembers what she is (not who but what) and pulls back. Jon's expression is not good if they selling me a romance, he doesn't look tortured by his desire and love for his aunt, but disgusted and defeated like he thought this was over but apparently nope he still has to be like this.

D has never respected Jon or his feelings (like when s7 was airing I remember I said she reminded me of Tw1l1ght when she watched Jon sleep, and how little she respects his privacy) and this imbalance in their relationship is again present when she starts complaining about how people love him and not her (gee I wonder if that has anything to do with setting your dragons on them when you arrived) like really, not once she worried about his feelings about not being who he thought he was, the only thing she cares about is the IT and if he will get in the way. Jon is visibly annoyed while giving his back to her so she doesn't seem but the audience does. What's more she expects Jon to lie to his family isolating himself from them to make her happy (that's fucked up) I do believe Jon intended to tell them everything (he just doesn't know how, and is understandably afraid cuz he never felt truly a part of the pack, and now he thinks he really is not) now he sees D is not going to let go of him, of the North, he can't say anything (i mean he totally should tho, I know d&d are just doing this to hold onto pol!Jon and dark!dany for as long as they can before being all smug like bet you didn't see it coming, except i do, I see u villians. Jk maybe I am wrong xd) he still wants to say it, and D goes absolutely crazy saying the truth is gonna destroy them (why dear isn't that the name of your epic couple song?) And that she wants to live in her selfish ass fantasy while stating how threatened she feels by Sansa (by this point Jon knows she burned the Tarlys for not bending and Sansa is not bending, if she bent know d would surely find it suspicious) the ONLY way he can protect Sansa as long as D is still at WF (and maybe forever) is if he is in the middle, her feelings for him have to be enough to stop her from hurting Sansa, or at least that is how I see his PoV right now, better for Sansa to be alive and hate him than having D kill her.

********The Braime is scene was so good tho 😢😢😢😍😍😍

War Council & Stark Meeting

Or the moment most people wanted to throw Jon in the trash...

So they making stupid ass, basic plans to defeat chess master Cersei.

And there, told ya D wanted to burn shit down before Missandei. Jon gets her to listen (Tyrion is grateful af)and instead of burning shit down like idiots they will lay a siege. But then Sansa raises an important issue everyone should care about: The physical and mental recovery of their armies. But D is like crazy tbh, there is no better word and she still treats the Long night as Jon's war and the northern as Sansa's people, and my girl rightfully calls her out. Jon puts a stop to that and he was heavily critiziced for it, but like he did the right thing?? I mean i hated how hurt Sansa looked, but Jon is trying (still) real hard to protect her, but there is nothing he can do if Sansa keeps antagonizing D (did y'all see how out of proportion was her reaction to a valid question??) also I think Jon wants to get D as far away from his family (specially Sansa) as possible.

Onto the reunión it was pretty telling how Sansa and Jon were already fighting it out like they do, both lost in their little world til Arya is like guys pls stop. Arya served as an excellent contrast between what sisterly concern looks like and what Sansa is showing. Jon is desperate, he has to go with D, not only because his family will not be safe if Cersei is alive, but because D feels they owe her that, and D wants him by her side and that is the only way she won't accuse him or his family of plotting against her, by this point i don't think jon has any plan to separate himself from her, he will do what she wants for as long as she wants because she has the power to hurt the people he loves and he rather be unhappy than losing his family forever. So he makes Bran tell them and makes them swear they won't tell anyone (he is explicitly defying D's wishes here) why?? Well there could be many reasons, his last act of free will, or maybe he wants the Starks to hate him and get him out of the pack (he doesn't even consider himself a part of the pack, and from his PoV Sansa doesn't either, cuz he is an idiot just not in the way people think he is) for choosing his Targ family over them, I lean toward the later but who knows?? I just know something bad had to happen for Arya to leave like that with no intention of returning and Sansa not saying goodbye to Jon and just wistfully watch from the battlements.

Farewell Jon

Again people hated Jon for this. But imho Jon is clearly not well in that moment, he looks tired, depressed. And i doubt very much this is the last scene with Ghost he will have.

Also Jon says he wishes he could go North is pretty sad?? If Jon loved d that much he would be sad about being at odds with his family but determined he is doing the right thing, he would be at least a little eager or something, not saying he wishes he could go up north and hide himself from everything. Also Tormund saying a part of the north will always be in Jon is foreshadowing that he will definitely come back.

Jon self deprecating "I hope it's a girl" when gilly tells him they want to name the baby after him. Jon is not alright.

He can't say goodbye to Ghost because this is not goodbye, this is not the last time they will see each other, and Jon can't bring himself to say goodbye (tbh he looked like the saddest boy ever, he didn't look like an uncaring ass to me) because ghost is his tie to his stark side, and he just can't part from that (also I am good with Jon not taking him to the South, like we don't wanna see my pure boy die)

Tyrion, she is in love with Jon u idiot.

So yeah D is with the dragons, and i don't know about y'all but Rhaegal is flying just fine (I think D didn't want Jon riding Rhaegal anymore to avoid more talk about how kingly he is).

So yeah Sansa is seeing this lizards fly, and Tyrion approaches her, she is not even trying to disguise how much she loathes the idea of D being kween, Tyrion is trying to work out why, it would certainly make things easier if the Lady of WF and the crown had a civil relationship. Sansa acts very snappy and brings up the good relationship the Warden of the North has with their kween (I want to slap Tyrion everytime he says "she is your kween too" to any other character) Tyrion very unsubtly says Jon is not coming back, and Sansa gets so emotional, she tells him she doesn't want Jon to go South.

Tyrion is baffled (cuz he is boo boo the fool) as to why Sansa is so against D, and even tells her how much more power she'll have if Jon is out of the picture. She doesn't want power tho she wants Jon. Sansa cleverly points out Tyrion is scared of D, and asks him why he thinks she would be a good kween (lmaooo this is what it looks like when u a brainwashed fool, Tyrion straight up says he believes in D as opposed to Jon saying they needed her armies) Tyrion says bs and Sansa says what if there was a better option. (This might save Jon's ass later tbh)

Welp that escalated fast

So now, we have the stupidest team ever traveling by boat to KL or dragonstone??? Somewhere in between maybe.

Varys and Tyrion are having a chat about Jon's parentage. Welp. Varys is Team Snow now I guess and Tyrion is still a fool. Honestly none of this bodes well for the D.

Now she is flying magestically with her 2 dragons when bam! Euron sinks her battleship and her battle dragon and her everything.

D, like the impulsive fool she is, charges against the Greyjoy fleet only to discover that they all have Scorpions, and she is risking it too much.

Everyone swims to the shore (honestly how Lucky they are that everyone knows how to swim) but Missandei is missing.

Cersei is the supreme bitch drinking wine and relishing in how unprepared D team is. Missandei is chained (😢) and very scared.

In WF, Sansa gets the news (who sent her this raven?? Varys is my bet) and Jaime overhears. Sansa says she wishes she could watch Cersei's execution (and this was pretty harsh but Cersei deserves Sansa's hate so..) Jaime gets unsettled and that paired up with that scene of the previously on where Cersei reveals she is pregnant plus all that stuff on 8x02 about him doing things for his family, I guess it's pretty clear he will try to save Cersei for the baby's sake not out of love but because the baby is innocent and is his, he already has fought D and knows his chances to survive again are scarce so he has to hurt Brienne now if he doesn't want her to follow him.

This shit is racist as hell but the writing is poor and everyone hated it so I guess it's something.

Now we get to the parley. And idk why Tyrion keeps trying (I mean i guess it's for the baby as well) is clear Cersei would rather die than leave the throne to d (which is just as well cuz d thinks the same).

They try to negotiate but both kweens are too selfish and entitled for it to really work. Missandei gets beheaded, but before she says Dracarys (how sad they don't let her say I love you to Greyworm one last time and instead is used as a permission for d to go bersek on innocent people that are not responsible for Cersei's actions) honestly is disappointing we don't get to see if D would have allowed her and GW to leave, it's sad she doesn't get her own story apart from D's handmaiden and that her own death is not about herself but to cause pain to a white woman (that already has a super racist storyline) and turn her full dark (I mean she has been making the descent on her own just fine whyyy u do this d&d).

That’s it, that’s my take. I am looking forward to next week.

GAME OF THRONES SEASON 8 EPISODE 3 PLOT AND OPINIONS.

Alright fellas here is my sum up and opinion of Game of Thrones season 8 episode 3:The Battle of Winterfell. I know nobody asked. I just watched it but I'm still shaking but I'll try to get my toughts together.

Starting as we left off, everyone is preparing to defend Winterfell and the living. We all expect that half of the group will die.

The first big suprise for me was Melissandre from the nowhere "yo fam im not too late i hope" No you are not but don't come from the side of the dead next time please. A little suspicious.

The Dothraki died too quickly. I get it that it meant to show us how overpowered and how many are the dead but still... they lasted only 5 minutes? With those flaming swords from Melissandre? C'mon! They were just there to die. Alone. I think it made no sense. But the scene altogether was really epic, no denying in that.

After that, the dead army demolishes the front lines. Way too overpowered, you couldn't imagine victory for us right?

Sam is not so heroic but Edd is to the rescue. Yeah you killed the walker, please don't stand smiling and calmly during battle please or you'll be ki-yup he's dead.

Obviously the unsullied can't hold'em back for much longer, they have to retreat. Many deaths. We hope the Nightking won't trick us and bring them back to his army right?

The trench does its thing with the pikes. But becausw of the random snowstorm, Dany and Jon cannot see Davos' sign to light it up. Luckily the Red Woman is here and she tries the call the Lord of the Light for help. As the dead starts to come through the trench, her faith shaken, but at the heroic last moment, she managed it.

It works for a little, but soon the fire drops and the dead can come again. Not all at once od course so the defenders can hold them for a little before moving back inside the walls.

Little Lyanna is yelling to everyone, luckily the people are obeying and they open the door. Everyone know that she cannot be killed so noone is worrying.

Arya sends Sansa to the Krypt to Tyrion and the others with a dragonglass dagger. The hound is in a corner, afraid of the fire.

The dead is starting to climb on the walls, while the archers do their things. The main characters defend the wall, everything works fine but the dead are too much. They start coming into Winterfell. The dead starts to surround Theon, Bran and the ironborn. At first, all the dead starts to attack, and the ironborn are just with arrows. But the next shot they are more lesser (fewer-don't burn me Stannis) walker. Those arrows can do some serious shit.

Arya panicks, and runs away inside. There she plays a little hide and seek, but she got noticed and has to run. Beric convinces the Hound to go after her.

That bastard undead giant comes in the gate, tossing Lyanna aside. But she cannot die right? They wouldn't kill oir favourite girl right? As the 62 warriors die, Lyanna picks up a weapon and goes for the giant. The plain fails, the giant kills our girl but first, she pokes out the giant's eyes. I did not like this scene. Not a bit.

To be honest I lost track here because I was shocked, so sorry if the events won't come in order.

So the Nightking says yolo and appears with Viserion, and has an argument with Rhaegal. Eventually, the Nightking falls off, just in front off Drogon. Dany says Dracarys but we all know that the Nightking won't die just like that. That sounds like if someone would stab him with a dagger...

He smiles like there is no tomorrow and starts walking towards Winterfell. Jon runs after him.

Of course the Nightking quickly performs his trick, all the dead are "alive" again. Hey Lyanna too so it's worth it. Jon can't make to the Nightking, he is surrounded by walkers. What will he do? Well nothing serious because in the next scene, he is surrounded by half that ammount which can be beaten with a little help of dragonfire. Than Jon runs after him again to save Bran, and Dany is sruggling to get away. She can't, Drogo flies away with a shitload of walkers on his back. Dany got saved by Jorah. I see where this is going and it's too predictable. And I don't like it.

Beric got a lot of stabs, but Sandor and Arya manages to get him to safety where he can die. The Red Woman random arrives again and tells Arya that she will still close down a lot of blue eyes. What does she mean? Arya will kill the Nightking? She??

One stab. Two stab. But Jorah can still fight. But there will be a problem as I see.

The defenders (Jaime, Brienne, Tormund, Podrick, Greyworm) are fighting. In ome moment they are beaten down to the ground by walkers, the next, they are fighting again.

Jon stucks on the courtyard with Viserion.

Only Theon lives when the Nightking arrives, all the dead dead are now living dead again. Bran gets back from warging, thanks Theon for dying bacause of me. Theon is happly sad, picks up a spead, runs for the king, but he kills Theon. As he dies, the Nightking goes to Bran, stares at him. Long enough to let amyone come to rescuse, which will happen of course.

The Nightking has some witcher reflexes and hearing because he catches Arya's neck, as she tries to stab him. Fool girl. The Nightking can't be killed right?

As she drops the dagger, catches it with his other hand, stabs it into the Nightking's stomach. He explodes and all the living dead are dead dead again.

Jorah falls to the ground and Dany starts crying as he dies. I didn't want him to die but this was so predictable...

As the battle ended, Davos tries to kill Melissandre, but M. takes of her necklace, walks aways, gets old, and dies by herself.

They won? Or what happened? The Nightking can be killed this easily? We shall see on next Sunday.

Season 7- J and D in a nutshell:

Jon: Forget Cersi. TAOTD are coming. Help me fight the Night King.

Dany: I'm here to take back Westeross from Cersi. So no. Bend the knee and help me with my thing though.

Jon: there's no time for that. Seriously.....FORGET CERSI TAOTD ARE COMING.

Dany: If you don't bend the knee you are a rebel. You don't expect me to let Cersi keep the iron throne do you?

Jon: the fuck is this girl talking About? Whatever, I don't care about that shit. TAOTD ARE COMING. And you're still talking about titles? Come check out these cave paintings that show I'm telling the truth.

Dany: oh yeah I'm kinda seeing what you're saying. These pictures do look scary. But I can't stop what I've been doing for 6 seasons. Not when I'm this close. I want to help. But I can't unless I can have your support. C'mon. I'm only asking you to give up your ancestorial home so I can have mine.

Jon: Are we still talking about this?....

Dany: excuse me for a moment while I go burn 1000s of people alive. But when I come back. We can talk more about that kneeling thing.

Jon: I don't think doing what your ancestors did is the best way to get people to........

Dany: k byeeeeeeee.

Jon: oh your back. Cool you could have used all that gusto on TAOTD but whatever. How can I make this chick listen???? Wow she treats this jorah guy way better than tyrion. I wonder why? Oh look a letter from home. Hope it's good news. Sibling alive, yes that's good. TAOTD are STILL coming? No way! I gotta go. Unless you became rational all of the sudden and want to help?

dany: you can't leave. I've only just started to like you. For some reason that isn't really cinimatically or verbally explained.

Jon: oh but your hand just came up with a great idea to get me killed. So gotta go. K byeeeeee.....

Dany: you know what? I know I got 1000s of people to follow me. And everyone I love has litterally put their lives in my hands. And I refuse to put anyone in line for succession. But I just have this urg to put myself in harm's way by saving the people I sent into harm's way to begin with.

Jon: yesssss. Ok she's here she can blatantly see through this lame fucking story plot that TAOTD is the TRUE threat. Oh fuck did she just lose a dragon?! Well she's got to be committed now right? GO! GO! take the remaining 2 WMDs and fight another day. Guess I'm dying again. Oh well. But what's this? A Stark comming to my rescue yet again?

Dany: heeeeey. So I saw TAOTD and your right we will destroy them together.

Jon: fucking finally lady. Ok I'll help you too. I'll bend the knee. Since we did all that and we're already on our way to see Cersi. And we have like, no time before TAOTD get to the wall where my friends are. And winterfell where my family is. Let's just get this shit going shall we?

Dany: all I heard was I'll bend the knee. I love you too.

Jon: so check out my power point presentation on WW everbody. Will you help us crazy lady who helped kill most of my family? Oh yeah. It's an US now. I pledged to Dany. For some reason I have to tell you that right now and negate 2 episodes worth of effort and the death of a dragon. Anyways......will you help us? No?! Hmmmm didn't see that coming.

Dany: you're sweet but stupid. Why did we even come here?

Jon: you think I'm Sweet? Hmmmm acting like Jorah seems to be working. What else can I say to smooth over I just fucked up this cease fire? You're not like everyone else. Soooo I know Cersi said she won't help. But you already kind of said you would help us anyway. I mean before I bent the knee. And before we even asked Cersi you said you would help. Does that offer still stand?

Dany: yeah about that.......

Jon: oh for fucks sake.

Game of Thrones season 7 episode 3 - The Queen’s Justice:

Wow, things are speeding along in this episode. There's not really a sense of time passing.

I love how friendly Tyrion and Jon are to each other.

Missandei, do you really have to list ALL of Dany's titles everytime you introduce her? doesn't it get tirering.

Dany, c'mon. You have three Dragons flying around your home, why is it so hard to believe in white wallkers? I fear Dany is so fixated on getting the iron throne that she doens't see the bigger picture.

Oh Theon, I feel for you, but you really need to get your shit together.

Euron and Cersei, now that’s a lethal combination.

I called it! I knew Cersei was gonna kill Tyene that way. It's too bad the sand snakes never got that much character development.

Again love the exchange between Jon and Tyrion. Tyrion really has become the voice of reason to Dany.

I wonder what the reaction will be when Dany and Jon finds out they're related.

What is Littlefinger up too....

Bran, Sansa is so happy to see you, can't you show some emotions, instead of just freaking her out with your plot-divice powers.

Okay, so Sam started treating Jorah for greyscales with his forbidden untested treatment last episode, and now he's fully healed. How much time has passed exactly?

Well the good news is Grey Worm is still alive. Bad news he's stuck on a rock.

Olenna Tyrell, The Queen of Thorns and sass to very end. I gotta say, we're running low on sympathic characters.

Preview: I fear Dany is losing patience and is gonna do something rashed, like fly out on Drogon and try to take King's Landing by herself. And then Cersei is gonna use that ballista and my foreshadowing would be right.

Thoughts on Game of Thrones 07x07 The Dragon and the Wolf

Spoiler alert!!!

1. I'M NOT READY FOR THIS!!!

2. I wonder if we'll finally find out what happened to Yara. 3. Maybe we'll even see the Sand daughter dead. Ewww.... 4. Are we going to see a Sansa/Arya battle or are they going to band together and take down Littlefinger? 5. The Ice Dragon. That's a title for one of GRRM's books that isn't connected to the Seven Kingdoms saga. 6. Yes, Grey Worm! 7. Five minutes of Bronn and Jaime talking about dicks. 8. 500 more barrels? Better make that 5,000 more. 9. Is Bronn wearing guyliner? 10. Is Sandor REALLY teasing the undead guy? 11. Poor Cersei is gonna be SO disappointed the "silverhaired bitch" isn't there. 12. Awww, Pod and Tyrion are having a moment. 13. Bronn: "C'mon. You can suck his magic cock later." LMAO 14. Another great episode where we have people who have small connections all meeting together. 15. OMG, Sandor and Brienne smiling at each other. 16. I'm hyped for Clegane Bowl. It better happen! 17. Bronn and Pod run off and everyone left is uncomfortable as fuck. 18. This whole scene is tense. Jaime staring down Brienne. Cersei staring down Tyrion. Euron staring down Theon. 19. Sandor and Sir Gregor. Clegane Bowl foreplay? 20. Oh yeah, Dany making an entrance with her dragons. 21. Euron's trying to act like all that but he forgets he's nothing compared to Cersei at this point. 22. It's like a bad magic show trick. There's nothing in the box. 23. Suck on that, Cersei. 24. Of course, Qyburn is fascinated. 25. I was waiting for the thing to flip-off Jon Snow with it's disembodied hand. 26. Jaime and Euron looked like they were gonna piss themselves when Dany told them there were 100,000 undead. 27. Euron's gonna pussy-out! 28. Looks like Cersei won't be getting that marriage proposal. 29. Brienne pleading with Jaime and her face after....heartbreaking. 30. Oh shit, did Jon just fuck it up for everyone? 31. Tyrion knows they're fucked and he's going to go talk to his sister himself? Deathwish! 32. If anything, Tyrion would be put in the dungeons and tortured, then murdered. 33. Jaime loves Tyrion. They have a great dynamic. 34. Tyrion called Cersei's bluff. Nicely done. 35. Yeah, I'd say that calls for a stiff drink, too, bud.

36. It's so sad the last time Tyrion saw Myrcella, he was sending her away. I don't remember the last time he saw Tommen. 37. Cersei isn't seeing the bigger picture. Can't control an army of the undead. 38. Jon and Dany falling in love among the ruins of the Dragonpit. 39. Jon's right. Think about it - the witch was out to kill Khal Drogo. She could have easily lied to Dany so she wouldn't continue her bloodline. 40. Tyrion is back, and he's bringing the fam. 41. Damn it, Sansa, why are you still hanging out with Littlefinger?!? 42. What do you mean Arya WAS one of them? She still is! 43. What the hell is he doing? Is he trying to get Sansa to kill Arya? 44. Why did she come to Winterfell? Because it's her home, shithead! 45. Arya didn't dig up the scroll, Littledick did! (At this point, I'm about to throw something at the TV).

46. Arya NEVER wanted to be Lady of Winterfell. She made that clear when she was a child, and she's been consistent in her mission - to be a knight. 47. "All it takes is one angry man with a crossbow." And the video is on Tyrion when that's said. Foreshadowing? Callback? 48. The look on Jorah's face when she tells Jon "We said together." He's always gonna be friend zoned. 49. I'm not really getting the whole point of this exchange between Theon and Jon. 50. When Jon told Theon he didn't need to choose because he's a Greyjoy and a Stark, the same could be said for Jon - he's a Targaryen and a Stark. 51. Okay, I get the speech now. It's Theon's moment to be empowered before he goes to beat the living snot out of one of his men who's trying to flee. 52. Theon's gonna redeem himself. Right on! 53. Sansa's turning into Cersei. Fuck! 54. Arya doesn't really look spooked, but I'm sure she's feeling betrayed. 55. Say what now?!? 56. Holy shit! Littlefinger got out Littlefingered! 57. Finally, Bran is making himself useful! 58. Littlefinger forgets that Bran sees EVERYTHING. 59. I love watching the bastard begging and pleading for mercy. 60. And now he's on his knees. Still declaring his love for Sansa. Sick. 61. Bye, Littlefinger! 62. I don't anyone's death on this show was as satisfying as that one. 63. Are you kidding me?!? Cersei is still so short-sighted. 64. It's still all about HER. What a cunt. 65. All the money in the world isn't going to buy Cersei a victory. Her father would have told her that. 66. Oh, so Euron didn't puss-out. 67. Even if she married Euron, he'd probably kill her on their wedding night. Unless she killed him first. 68. WTF does she mean Jaime met Tyrion in secret without her consent? She claimed before that she knew. 69. Whoa! Sir Gregor's gonna take out Jaime? 70. Now both her brothers have called her bluff. She has a weakness for her family. 71. Cersei is alone. She's all she has left. I'm sure that's exactly how she wanted it. 72. Winter has come to King's Landing. 73. I hope Jaime and Brienne hook up next season. 74. SAM'S IN WINTERFELL!!!! 75. "I became the Three-Eyed Raven" - Yeah, we get it. Nobody but you really knows what that means. 76. "You saw this in a vision?" Bran holding up the scroll is so much shade. 77. So Sam WAS paying attention. But Gilly found it. 78. OMG, so beautiful! R+L wedding!!! 79. Rhaegar looks like Viserys. Ewwww!! 80. The comparison between R+L and J+D is awesome. It's like J+D were meant to be. 81. Why's Tyrion creeping? 82. HIS REAL NAME IS AEGON TARGARYEN?!? YES!!! 83. Oh yeah! Boat sex!

84. Bet you never thought you'd find eight inches of Snow in a boat, did you? 😏 85. Jon's the rightful heir. That's seriously going to put a wedge in that new romance. Unless they marry, of course. 86. Prediction: Jon gets Dany pregnant and their baby will be the prince/princess that was promised. 87. Arya knows she had her own calling. And they both survived their own hardships their own way. 88. It's nice to see them getting along. 89. "You're still very strange and annoying." Arya seems happy with that. 90. Ned would be so proud of his daughters. 91. Meanwhile, Bran's still being weird. 92. Eastwatch by the Sea - time to check in on Tormund and Beric. 93. Oh shit! White walkers have reached The Wall. 94. And they have giants. Just like the vision at the beginning of the season. Oh fuck! 95. Blue flames?!? BLUE FLAMES!!! 96. Viserion's wings are all ragged with rot and he's spouting BLUE FLAMES!!! 97. OMFG, the Wall is coming down!!!! 98. Please don't let Tormund or Beric die! 99. They're probably gone. Fuck! 100. Now the army of the dead is crossing the wall. So much for all that magical protection.

And now we'll have to wait until 2019 to find out how this all ends.

The nicest things that happened to Jon, Dany, and Arya on this week's 'Game of Thrones.'

Welcome to "A Song of Nice and Fire," Upworthy's weekly "Game of Thrones" recap series. When we decided to recap of the most brutal show on TV, we realized that brutality is not really in our wheelhouse, so we tasked writer Eric March with hunting for the good, kind, wholesome GoT moments like a needle in a haystack. Here's what he found.

I see you giving me that side-eye, The Hound. Photo by Helen Sloan/HBO.

OK. Let's do this.

Frankly, I don't blame you for being skeptical. I was, too, when I first sat down to write about all the nice things that happened in the Season 7 premiere of "Game of Thrones." Everything about it seemed impossible (other than coming up with a snazzy, punny series title).

Trying to find lovingkindness in a show known for epic backstabbing, front-stabbing, and all-sides-stabbing is like trying to find new-wave music on "Empire," conservative opinions on "The Daily Show," or whatever doesn't happen on "Suits" on "Suits" (I don't watch "Suits").

Niceness just doesn't seem to exist in Westeros. And where and when it does, it's really not the point.

But I'm going to make a good-faith attempt. And miraculously, there was plenty of charity and goodwill to come by in last night's "Dragonstone."

Indeed, the seventh season premiere of "Game of Thrones" was practically overflowing with decency, tenderness, and respect.

You just have to squint at it the right way.

Perhaps after a glass of Arbor red or two.

Pretty weak episode. Too much niceness, mostly. #GoT

— Jon Ralston (@RalstonReports) July 17, 2017

The parade of benevolence began right away in the cold open, where Arya Stark, disguised as the (actually now) late Walder Frey, serves the entire Frey family a lovely meal. How nice! Sure, the meal was actually vengeance for the deaths of Arya's mother and brother who were murdered by Frey at the infamous Red Wedding, and yes, the Freys' murdered relatives were (per last season's finale) most likely the primary protein on offer, and, OK, yeah, the wine was definitely poison, but a house's gotta eat, and what is she, stone-hearted? Some sort of Stonehearted Lady? C'mon.

She threw them a dinner party. That's nice!

You're welcome. Photo by Helen Sloan/HBO.

Later, Arya does guest-star Ed Sheeran (Ed Sheeran) and the Assorted Lannister Soldiers a solid by not slitting their throats (at least not before the camera cuts away — a man cannot simply assume) after they offer her a bite of rabbit as well as several humanizing character anecdotes.

Not bad for some improvised mercy from the world's tiniest assassin!

Down at King's Landing, Jaime respectfully gives the equilibrium-challenged Euron Greyjoy props for burning the Lannister ships during one war or another, while helping plan a marriage of convenience for Cersei.

When it's going great. Photo by Helen Sloan/HBO.

Following some perfunctory bad-guy-on-bad-guy sizing-up, Greyjoy leaves, promising to return with a gift for Cersei that he hopes will persuade her to marry him. It's a little less genuinely nice and a little more Nice Guy (TM), because she did say no (a tactic? Possibly), but still. Crossing my fingers for an Edible Arrangement.

Up north, Jon takes pity on the funny-looking children of the less-than-perfectly-loyal Harald Karstark and Smalljon Umber by not taking their castles away and giving them to random other people, much to Sansa's chagrin and Littlefinger's ever-squirrely "I told you so."

Jon then pulls his sister aside for a post-meeting debrief and actually appears to listen to her, which is far more considerate than Ned or Robb Stark were to any female human before they were de-headed. And hey, Jon is also persuaded to throw out thousands of years of male-dominated military tradition to conscript women into his ragtag zombie-fighting army! Whether it's out of desperation or the memory of being on the business end of Ygritte's bow and arrow is debatable, but Lyanna Mormont is into it, so I'm calling it a nice win for Westerosi gender parity (yasss kween #feminism #ladycasualties).

Perhaps the only nice thing about the montage of Sam's drudgery in Oldtown is that it doesn't go on forever, even if it does feel that way.

No, thanks to whatever sound designer brought that visceral grossness to life. (Seriously.) (SERIOUSLY.) (OK, but actually respect and good work.)

Yeah, me too, Sam. Photo by Helen Sloan/HBO.

Yet in between cleaning bedpans and dishing out curiously similar-in-appearance soup, Sam does manage to figure out where all the dragonglass in Westeros is (shockingly, the one place on the continent with "dragon" in the name) and courteously send Jon a letter about it.

Also that one archmaester believes Sam about the White Walkers! That's nice of him, and really nice for Sam, even if the archmaester won't do anything about it. "The Wall has stood through it all, and every winter that ever came has ended," he reassures Sam. And if "Game of Thrones" has taught me anything in six seasons, he's definitely right, nothing bad will happen, the Wall will definitely continue to stand, and all will be well.

Elsewhere, holed up in a foreboding-looking abandoned inn with Beric Dondarrion and Thoros of Myr, The Hound does kindness about as well as The Hound can do and holds a funeral for the previous tenants of the place — an unfortunately dead and be-skeletoned father and daughter.

Sure, the fact that he stole their silver way back in Season 4 is why the pair starved to death in the first place, but this is "Game of Thrones," not "This Is Us," and feeling really really bad after half-knowingly condemning someone to a slow, painful death earns you a solid 4/5 on the Westerosi "Man's Humanity to Fellow Man" Scale. Even though The Hound couldn't remember the proper burial rites, the fact that he buried them at all wasn't just a nice thing to do, but a nice bit of continued character growth for a man once defined solely by his size, distinctive scars, and curious aptitude for piercing body parts with sharp metal objects.

Good gazing, everyone. Let's take 10. Photo by Macall B. Polay/HBO.

In the final minutes of the episode, Daenerys and Tyrion finally arrive at the ancient Targaryen fortress on Dragonstone (finally!) to catch up on six years of silent walking, gazing, choral "oohs," and purposeful sand-feeling. Their scenes were so brief and largely visual that there's not much to say here. I guess it was nice of the Unsullied to hold open a series of large doors for Daenerys as she strode majestically up the mountain toward her destiny? That was cool of them.

Whoo, we made it! That's it for week one. See you next week, when hopefully Jaime gives Cersei a puppy, Jon and Sansa watch old home movies together, and the Wall definitely doesn't come down. That's ridiculous.

Random Acts of Niceness:

It's nice to see that Cersei, Dany, and Sansa's clothes have gotten a lot more practical now that their plots don't revolve around looking cute for some dude.

Hey, Arya left those serving girls alive thanks to some clutch ironic performative sexism! Score one for innocent bystanders.

Good on probably-Jorah's arm for not giving Sam grayscale! (I think.)

Oh yeah, Bran! Meera apparently dragged him about 150 miles through the freezing tundra while he presumably pontificated wizardly about the Long Night the whole damn way. That is A+ forbearance.

The nicest things that happened to Jon, Dany, and Arya on this week's 'Game of Thrones.'

[ad_1]

Welcome to "A Track of Great and Fireplace," Upworthy's weekly "Game of Thrones" recap collection. When we determined to recap of the most brutal exhibit on Tv, we understood that brutality is not seriously in our wheelhouse, so we tasked author Eric March with searching for the fantastic, type, wholesome Received moments like a needle in a haystack. This is what he observed.

I see you providing me that facet-eye, The Hound. Photo by Helen Sloan/HBO.

Ok. Let's do this.

Frankly, I do not blame you for staying skeptical. I was, much too, when I initially sat down to produce about all the awesome matters that transpired in the Period seven premiere of "Game of Thrones." Everything about it seemed not possible (other than coming up with a snazzy, punny collection title).

Seeking to find lovingkindness in a exhibit acknowledged for epic backstabbing, entrance-stabbing, and all-sides-stabbing is like making an attempt to find new-wave music on "Empire," conservative viewpoints on "The Each day Clearly show," or what ever won't happen on "Fits" on "Fits" (I do not view "Fits").

Niceness just won't feel to exist in Westeros. And wherever and when it does, it really is seriously not the point.

But I'm likely to make a fantastic-faith attempt. And miraculously, there was loads of charity and goodwill to arrive by in final night's "Dragonstone."

In fact, the seventh time premiere of "Game of Thrones" was practically overflowing with decency, tenderness, and regard.

You just have to squint at it the right way.

Most likely soon after a glass of Arbor red or two.

Really weak episode. As well much niceness, largely. #Received

— Jon Ralston (@RalstonReports) July seventeen, 2017

The parade of benevolence started right absent in the chilly open up, wherever Arya Stark, disguised as the (basically now) late Walder Frey, serves the entire Frey family members a attractive meal. How awesome! Guaranteed, the meal was basically vengeance for the deaths of Arya's mother and brother who were being murdered by Frey at the infamous Crimson Marriage, and sure, the Freys' murdered family members were being (per final season's finale) most very likely the major protein on offer you, and, Ok, yeah, the wine was unquestionably poison, but a house's gotta eat, and what is she, stone-hearted? Some form of Stonehearted Girl? C'mon.

She threw them a evening meal bash. Which is awesome!

You might be welcome. Photo by Helen Sloan/HBO.

Later on, Arya does guest-star Ed Sheeran (Ed Sheeran) and the Assorted Lannister Troopers a strong by not slitting their throats (at the very least not in advance of the digital camera cuts absent — a gentleman are not able to only assume) soon after they offer you her a bite of rabbit as nicely as a number of humanizing character anecdotes.

Not bad for some improvised mercy from the world's tiniest assassin!

Down at King's Landing, Jaime respectfully offers the equilibrium-challenged Euron Greyjoy props for burning the Lannister ships all through just one war or one more, while serving to program a relationship of usefulness for Cersei.

When it really is likely excellent. Photo by Helen Sloan/HBO.

Pursuing some perfunctory bad-guy-on-bad-guy sizing-up, Greyjoy leaves, promising to return with a reward for Cersei that he hopes will persuade her to marry him. It really is a very little much less genuinely awesome and a very little extra Great Person (TM), because she did say no (a tactic? Maybe), but continue to. Crossing my fingers for an Edible Arrangement.

Up north, Jon can take pity on the amusing-wanting youngsters of the much less-than-properly-faithful Harald Karstark and Smalljon Umber by not having their castles absent and providing them to random other individuals, much to Sansa's chagrin and Littlefinger's ever-squirrely "I explained to you so."

Jon then pulls his sister apart for a submit-meeting debrief and basically appears to pay attention to her, which is far extra thoughtful than Ned or Robb Stark were being to any woman human in advance of they were being de-headed. And hey, Jon is also persuaded to toss out countless numbers of a long time of male-dominated military services tradition to conscript ladies into his ragtag zombie-preventing military! Whether or not it really is out of desperation or the memory of staying on the business close of Ygritte's bow and arrow is debatable, but Lyanna Mormont is into it, so I'm calling it a awesome gain for Westerosi gender parity (yasss kween #feminism #ladycasualties).

Most likely the only awesome factor about the montage of Sam's drudgery in Oldtown is that it won't go on eternally, even if it does truly feel that way.

No, many thanks to what ever seem designer brought that visceral grossness to existence. (Very seriously.) (Very seriously.) (Ok, but basically regard and fantastic get the job done.)

Yeah, me much too, Sam. Photo by Helen Sloan/HBO.

However in concerning cleansing bedpans and dishing out curiously comparable-in-overall look soup, Sam does take care of to figure out wherever all the dragonglass in Westeros is (shockingly, the just one area on the continent with "dragon" in the name) and courteously deliver Jon a letter about it.

Also that just one archmaester thinks Sam about the White Walkers! Which is awesome of him, and seriously awesome for Sam, even if the archmaester would not do anything about it. "The Wall has stood as a result of it all, and every wintertime that ever arrived has finished," he reassures Sam. And if "Game of Thrones" has taught me anything in 6 seasons, he is unquestionably right, practically nothing bad will happen, the Wall will unquestionably continue on to stand, and all will be nicely.

Somewhere else, holed up in a foreboding-wanting deserted inn with Beric Dondarrion and Thoros of Myr, The Hound does kindness about as nicely as The Hound can do and holds a funeral for the preceding tenants of the area — an sad to say useless and be-skeletoned father and daughter.

Guaranteed, the reality that he stole their silver way back again in Period 4 is why the pair starved to demise in the initially area, but this is "Game of Thrones," not "This Is Us," and sensation seriously seriously bad soon after 50 percent-knowingly condemning anyone to a sluggish, agonizing demise earns you a strong 4/five on the Westerosi "Man's Humanity to Fellow Gentleman" Scale.

Even although The Hound could not bear in mind the correct burial rites, the reality that he buried them at all was not just a awesome factor to do, but a awesome bit of ongoing character growth for a gentleman as soon as described exclusively by his dimensions, distinctive scars, and curious aptitude for piercing system pieces with sharp metal objects.

Superior gazing, absolutely everyone. Let's just take 10. Photo by Macall B. Polay/HBO.

In the ultimate minutes of the episode, Daenerys and Tyrion last but not least arrive at the ancient Targaryen fortress on Dragonstone (last but not least!) to capture up on 6 a long time of silent walking, gazing, choral "oohs," and purposeful sand-sensation. Their scenes were being so short and mainly visible that you can find not much to say here. I guess it was awesome of the Unsullied to keep open up a collection of significant doors for Daenerys as she strode majestically up the mountain towards her destiny? That was great of them.

Whoo, we produced it! Which is it for week just one. See you next week, when hopefully Jaime offers Cersei a pet, Jon and Sansa view aged home films together, and the Wall unquestionably won't arrive down. Which is ridiculous.

Random Acts of Niceness:

It really is awesome to see that Cersei, Dany, and Sansa's garments have gotten a large amount extra simple now that their plots do not revolve about wanting cute for some dude.

Hey, Arya remaining those people serving women alive many thanks to some clutch ironic performative sexism! Score just one for innocent bystanders.

Superior on in all probability-Jorah's arm for not providing Sam grayscale! (I assume.)

Oh yeah, Bran! Meera seemingly dragged him about a hundred and fifty miles as a result of the freezing tundra while he presumably pontificated wizardly about the Extended Evening the whole damn way. That is A+ forbearance.
