[deadbirdstudios]

I think its funny that people are getting pissy about the incredibly large amount of snatcher and moonjumper content . The only problem is that people are writing them as uwu babies which they're like. Not? Lol. I will say though tag your fucking art please? If you dont like snatcher or are just tired of seeing him just block the tag like I did. Theres a lot of untagged art though which irritates me .

Eastwatch: Thoughts on the episode

Okay. Deep breaths. Try not to freak out too much on the recap— aaH FUCK IT OHMYGOD GUYS CAN YOU EVEN!! WITH THIS EPISODE THERE’S SO MUCH STUFF GOING ON AND —

SPOILERS UNDER THE CUT YO!

First off, can we just address it real quick that JON SNOW IS NOT A BASTARD?? GILLY DIDN’T EVEN KNOW WHAT THE FUCK SHE WAS READING. AN ANNULMENT OF PRINCE RHAEGAR’S MARRIAGE TO ELIA MARTELL???? REMARRIAGE TO DEFINITELY LYANNA STARK!!! LOLOL HELLO JON TARGARYEN. BETCHA HE’S GOING TO RIDE RHAEGAL. DID YOU SEE HOW HE BONDED WITH DROGON!! WHOOOOOOP!!!!! DANY WAS SHOOK, I WAS SHOOK, WE WERE ALL COLLECTIVELY SHOOK!!! GUESS WE HAVE THREE LEGIT CLAIMANTS TO THE THRONE NOW: DANY BY WAY OF HER FATHER, JON ALSO BY WAY OF HIS FATHER (actually a more legitimate claim than Dany tbh), AND GENDRY, ALSO BY WAY OF HIS FATHER.

Okay. Back to the normal volume. Can we please just really appreciate Gendry’s return from his rowfest?? Like, wow, it’s been forever. I wanna see his reunion with Arya second only to Arya’s reunion with Jon. I love how Davos was trying to convince him all like: “hey you gotta listen to me —“ and Gendry is just like “ok man let’s go i was born READY”. This is the kind of A++ quality content I live for. And when Davos was all “hey no offense but don’t tell jon who you are” and Gendry just went “HI I’M ROBERT BARATHEON’S BASTARD SON WE’RE BOTH BASTARDS AND OUR FATHERS FOUGHT TOGETHER YAY!” Just give him more friends, Thrones, he deserves them. Man, I missed Gendry. What a blessing to have him back on this show. Thanks, Lord of Light, the Seven, the Old Gods, and the Drowned God, for giving my son back to me after such a long time away, WIELDING A WARHAMMER JUST LIKE HIS FATHER. I AM EMOTIONAL!!!

After wishing death and destruction on Bronn last episode for shooting my bb Drogon, I’m back on his side because he called Jaime Lannister a cunt. More people should call Jaime Lannister a cunt. Not to say I hate Jaime Lannister, but he’s let me down one too many times to still wave the Lannister banner screaming JAIME!! at the top of my lungs like I’m willing to do for Daenerys and Jon.

Speaking of the Lannisters, we inevitably get to Cersei. Season 7 Cersei is such an improvement from the previous seasons. It’s like someone powered up her intelligence like in a video game or something, because she’s finally showing the mind for strategy. And also becoming a mom to another twincest baby, which, gross. Has it ever occurred to any of you that the longest lasting relationship on this show is Jaime and Cersei? Yuck. On another hand, this doesn’t really bode well for her. Remember our last pregnant character? That’s right, folks, Talisa Stark. And look what happened to her. HERE’S HOPING THE SAME THING HAPPENS TO CERSEI LOL BYE! Anyhow though, on to my favorite Lannister: Tyrion! His reunion with Jaime is heartbreaking for me, because he was so defensive, and Jaime is just so torn because he loved his father and he loves Tyrion and he just can’t reconcile with the fact that Tyrion killed their father. Tyrion offers a cessation of hostilities. Cersei is satisfied and thinks she can win this war. Daenerys was really convinced by those cave paintings last episode. Jon is really psyched to go fight the Night King because all he’s been doing this season is pull a Harry Potter and scream VOLDEMORT, AHEM, THE NIGHT KING IS COMING and sulking and making heart eyes at Dany.

Okay, but because I’m Jonerys trash (I know I’m going to hell thx for ur concern), CAN WE PLEASE DISCUSS HOW DANY DOESN’T WANT JON TO GO?? LOOK SHE’S EVEN GIVING HIM THAT ALOOF-YET-SECRETLY-WANNA-HIT-IT STARE!!! YO!!! I’LL JUST SHUT UP ABOUT IT FOR NOW, BUT IF ANYONE WANNA FANGIRL ABOUT JONERYS OR JUST THIS SHOW IN GENERAL HMU!!

Arya criticizing Sansa. I shouldn’t be doing this, but I was hardcore cheering for Arya actually taking a swipe at Sansa, who seems to be very reluctant to defend Jon. I consider this payback for Sansa constantly criticizing and speaking up against Jon in a public way back in Dragonstone and Stormborn. Many people say Arya has gotten creepy, but honestly, if I still cheered for her as a serial killer, I’ll cheer for creepy Arya anyday. But it seems that she is playing straight into Littlefinger’s trap. Someone pointed out that the letter she found in Littlefinger’s chambers was that letter Sansa was forced to write in Season 1 declaring Ned Stark a traitor. I hate that Littlefinger is succeeding in dividing the Stark siblings yet again. THEY JUST GOT BACK TOGETHER, THRONES, LET THEM LIVE. PLEASE.

Hm, is that everything? NO! DEFINITELY NOT! That glorious wight-fighting, white-walker-killing teamup at the end definitely gets its own paragraph. Jon Snow, Gendry Waters, The Hound, Beric Dondarrion, and Thoros of Myr sharing a screen? OOH YEAH BB I WANT IT ALL!! That shot of the gates raising at the end and Jon leading them all out into that endless white is so?? Nice??? Aesthetically pleasing?? AAAA I CANNOT.

(If I’m not lying to myself I would admit that I spent this entire episode staring at Daenerys and Jon’s faces while they were onscreen and wondering how they can be so attractive. Also Sansa and Arya. What an attractive cast tbh this is so unfair.)

Some food for thought: if Dany found out that Jon is a Targ will she step aside to support his claim? I think not. She’s come too far for that now. The more likely course of action is to try to marry him to solidify her own claim. No matter what other people say, I don’t think Dany is going to become the Mad Queen. Of course there is still the possibility, but seeing her burn the Tarlys didn’t really count as evidence to me, seeing that she did give them a choice. Granted, ‘kneel or die’ doesn’t seem like much of a choice, but it is a reasonable one when you consider that she’s in the middle of a war. That, and the fact that I will stan Daenerys Targaryen until I am dead and cold.

Well, then! I’ll see y'all next week for more therapeutic ranting / fangirl fest / communal suffering. Whatever it is really depends on how you look at it.

Until Sunday!
