happy pride month to these freaks

[thelikesoffinn]

Hi friend! I have an question because of your DID post. I read a lot of stuff about DID end I watches something on Youtube to learn more about DID and now I'm agreeing that Astorian really don't have DID. But now after learning I'm thinking that maybe Durge could? What do you say?

Both spoilers and talks of DID symptoms ahead!

Oooooh, hiya babes!

I love that you went and looked up some stuff after reading my post so that you could come to your own conclusion. That's exactly what I want to achieve! I want to encourage people to learn more about the things I mention instead of taking them at face value, so I'm happy to hear that it works for some of you!

Also: Bad anon! Very bad! *posh people "nonono" finger shake* Please do not drag Durge into the DID community. They already have many a homicidal bastard in their rep ranks, and they do not need one more.

(Tone: Humorous but also really, please don't! For those who haven't yet: You can read a rough why here!)

But, as always, let's treat this as the discussion you meant it to be and chat about it!

With Durge - as opposed to that wildy idiotic Astarion tiktok theory we've talked about before - I can actually kind of see why you reached this conclusion.

Now, that doesn't mean I agree with the take that Durge has DID, but alas, I do see where you're coming from.

Durge actually does show some symptoms that we do commonly associate with DID as opposed to Astarion, who doesn't really show any.

There's the ever-present mood swings we see - some of them left to the players' choice - which are a common symptom many DID systems deal with. (As do patients with all sorts of other disorders, but let's stay on topic for the sake of brevity.)

One example of that would be barking at Isobel like a rabid dog and then immediately changing your tune and apologising straight after.

Disordered sleep is another symptom that is rather common in DID and also something we find in Durge. I don't think there's much to be said, we can see how restless their sleep is every long rest and, later on, Astarion even mentions that he hasn't seen them "sleep through the night once in the past days".

Lastly, and probably the most "glaring" symptoms we could potentially find are fainting spells and, mostly connected to those, fugue.

The fugue is most obvious after Durge first slaughters Alfira, seeing as they wake up bloodied and next to a corpse and don't even remember how it got there or what happened to it.

The fainting spells are shown a little later in Act 2, after we fail to kill Isobel and Sceleritas, the little chum!, tasks Durge to kill whoever they love the most. Durge barely manages to wake their beloved and inform them of what is happening before fainting and turning into that rabid beast we see throughout the night.

Oh, and one thing that is definitely there, but I'd still like to kind of push aside is Durge's headaches. I know they mention it A LOT - "I have such a headache." 'nough said. - and that it is a common somatic symptom in DID, but we have to keep in mind that Orin pretty much scrambled Durges' brain AND that they have a tadpole worming around in there.

Both of those are likely to cause headaches, so I'm hesitant to count them.

So now, with all of these symptoms that can serve as potential indicators, would I say that Durge has DID?

No.

I do think that you could easily headcannon that into your own character design if you were so inclined, since there's some bases that are covered.

I won't stand in anyone's way in that regard! It is your game and your creativity, but I don't believe that Durge has DID for multiple reasons.

Firstly, the symptoms are just too lax. They're really spread out, they shift like the tide, they're often untriggered, and they really only revolve around murder and mayhem. Nothing else.

While we have what we could generally mistake for a shift of conscience, it's less an actual shift and more Durge being overcome by their murderous urges. That is a really, really big difference.

Durge has these Urges all the time - often displayed as some sort of intrusive thought. It's just that in the few moments we see, they win.

It's like rice or kitty litter. You walk past those giant bags at the shops on a day to day basis and something in you just WANTS to slap that bag. Just a good smack. You can see yourself do it and that little voice is there every time you see those bags.

You resist most days, but on a random Tuesday, you give in and slap that bag.

With Durge, it's similar. Only instead of slapping a bag of rice, they kick a squirrel against a tree. That's not a shift in conscience. That's simply an Urge winning.

Plainly stated: There's no evil Alter that comes to and randomly goes off to kill innocent Bards and Clerics. It is still all Durge, and, for the most part, Durge can remember what they did.

I say, for the most part, because the Alfira incident seems to be the exception to that. We have no other incident where Durge can't remember what they did. It is only with Alfira, as far as I'm aware. (I suspect this is done for suspense rather than because Durge is plural.)

So there's apparently no amnesic walls between the mad dog and normal Durge and amnesic walls are pretty much why DID even exists since without those, there can be no Alter.

As I said in my other post, DID is the result of intense early childhood trauma. Amnesic walls are the protective measure the brain takes to keep the child alive.

It serves to separate the child from their trauma by basically shoving that trauma into one specific part of the brain and locking it away, which then creates an Alter since the child has yet to develop a set personality.

So the missing of those amnesic walls is pretty much the biggest indicator that there is no DID here.

Then there's the fact that Durge is immediately cured of everything once they are disowned by Bhaal, and that is, unsurprisingly, not how DID works. The creation of Alters becomes a third addition to the natural fight or flight. From then on out, it's fight, flight, or dissociate, which is why people with DID can develop further Alters later in life.

And lastly, my absolute favourite hill: Narratively, it just doesn't make any sense whatsoever. DID is a very specific disorder that holds a lot of storytelling potential, tragic as it is. In fact, the tragedy behind that disorder is where the potential often comes from - that and its rarity - since tragedy has always inspired creative minds all throughout history.

No one would go through the trouble of implementing that and then just discard it and never mention it.

So, to sum it up, I would say what Durge suffers from is called "Bhaal" and not DID! But once again, I do see how one could come to that conclusion, so there's no shame there.

(Also, I do hope everyone can now see why I said Astarion really doesn't show any signs of DID. Really none. If Durge doesn't have it, he doesn't either. Stop that tiktok nonsense, please.)

Anyway, babes! You have a lovely day now, and feel free to hit me up whenever you want to chat! Even if you have a different opinion or take on this, I'd be happy to hear all about it!

[wearethewitches]

i will definitely take you up on that offer! although dont get too distracted, masters and education is more important so stay on track. famdoms will be here when you’re done. now this isnt really a prompt, more to ask for your opinion. IF in some bg3 universe that was normal, how would ayling and isobel be as parents? (assuming through magic and or intervention of sêlune via moon fertility or something…) how do they react? to any and all their children or Valeria- reactions, parenting styles. you’ve given me brain worms Isobel is my fav

oooooh I have been thinking on this a lot (and thank-you! i have procrastinated by gutting my room instead and playing act 1 of bg3 with my new durge bard 😭).

so, your q: what would aylin & isobel be like as parents in a canon-like(?) universe?

i think first and foremost, they'd plan it out, with isobel being the one to have their children. in a more kind of classic scenario, i'd see isobel being hesitant to bring up the subject of children, and aylin quietly being the same but also settled into the idea of Not Having Children At All, then isobel bringing it up eventually and aylin seeing right through her in an instant; all for it, the both of them. then, they'd get selune's blessing, etc., and voila:

moon baby.

the vibe is very much VW road trip, because they're still actively doing good in the selunite community, and i have these images in my head of a silver-haired toddler, arms akimbo, riding about in a sling. aylin is showing them off constantly, and isobel is very pissed off that someone is attacking her while she's on a walk with her child.

i'd think that as time went by, there would be a veritable swarm of children, and no, isobel never gets tired of it. aylin is ecstatic. selune likes to visit them all and give them honeyed treats and like,, those sweet almond pastries. and occasionally a lemon, or something sour, just to keep them on their toes.

in a less classic scenario (i.e. "we tried to get pregnant and it turned out that aylin is the one having the kid, here, rather than isobel like planned"), i think they're more cautious? the difference here is that aylin can't be the big protector, not as far as she's used to, to there's a bit of role swap going on. their kids, plural, would have significant age-gaps.

(yeah there's no way i am not imagining isobel being gifted an elongated lifespan, somehow. no fucking way.)

hmmmmm...... parenting style-wise, they're very openminded, but i think they'd treat their kids like those no-socials celebrities do it, where their children are not blatant about their heritage, though unfortunately dnd rules state that aasimar (descendents or otherwise) are pretty much identifiable on sight, so i don't know how effective that would be.

either way, they'd really love their kids - though i think aylin misjudges what's appropriate sometimes. isobel hasn't had children before so she's equally in the dark, but aylin can be wildly right and wildly wrong in the kind of way that is "you cannot have hot things until you can speak full sentences" and "why wouldn't i teach my baby how to cast an upcasted Moonbeam spell, it should be innate anyway". but for some reason, she draws the line at giving them weapons, though not a specific some reason, aylin just has the page -> squire -> knight pipeline imprinted into her brain, and only one of those gets a sword full-time.

tfw isobel watches her babies bathe each other in magical moonlight and gets a creeping sense of dread, because one day - one day - she knows her children are going to have temper tantrum that could potentially level the house, and it's all because aylin thought it appropriate for their divine children to learn magic.

(i mean. it is? but also, they're children, who grow up being loved and adored and treated well, and those kinds of kids thrive. it's really not all that surprising they'd be brilliant at anything they chose to be.)

i had so much fun writing this, though i think i'll keep it at that for this ask. there were so many thoughts i had about Valeria specifically, but that's coming in the next chapter or so of (selune, thou).

genuinely loved this ask, 10/10 would do again.

Best and worst thing about Battlestar Galactica? One thing you would've done differently?

Oooooh, great question Anon.

Best -- I'm going to answer my personal favorite thing and not what's, like, "objectively" best from a general point of view, if that makes sense. What really drew me into the show and what I think has kept it being such a little worm in my brain for the last two decades is the characters. To me, the characters feel so rich and lived-in. They feel like people with lives and relationships that exist and grow even when that character is not the focus of the scene or even in the scene at all. You could pick nearly any two characters and say how they specifically feel about each other. I feel like on so many shows it feels like at the end of a scene the characters are like "Beep-boop, plugging myself into the wall until the next time I am needed" but not this one.

Worst: The Cylons did not, in fact, have a plan. I mean sure, yeah, they DID have a plan, which was bomb the Colonies. Which they achieved, so kudos to them, but to claim they had a plan for anything that followed is....untrue. I know everyone says "the finale." My answer does not exclude the finale, I think this is my main gripe with the finale.

Done differently: Either done more with the relationships between the different colonies or done away with it entirely. I think it would have been interesting to know more about that! I would not have minded!! (WHERE IS HELO FROM*?!) But at the level they did it at, it felt very random and heavy-handed whenever it came up, so I feel like they would have been better off being like "everyone is a refugee now we're going to ignore what planets people came from."

*I have a very elaborate head canon about this** so at this point I would not want TPTB to give me an answer, but, you know, it would have been nice fifteen years ago.

**He's from Aquaria, the tiniest planet where everyone is just chill***

***That's an Aquarian joke, it's an ice planet

1,2,16,17,18, 23 for the Hannibal ask (❤️👀)

1. Will is my favorite character 🥰 I have such immense brain worms for him. He was the first protagonist I’ve ever seen in a show who had a corruption arc and it truly changed my brain chemistry. He’s also such an anxious bi icon and I really relate to him. Overall, he slays. Also he’s so hot so that’s a bonus lmao

2. Gotta be Francis Dolarhyde. The disabled person turned evil psychopath trope is offensive and so worn out. Additionally, I feel like he really didn’t add anything to the show aside from thematic meaning and a parallel for Hannibal.

16. Oooooh shit this is a good question. Probably the one in Sorbet(?) where he imagines himself and Hannibal and Abigail at a dinner table. Maybe too niche, but that one lives in my brain forever.

17. Abel Gideon. Loved that dude he was entertaining af but him feeding Abel to Abel? Crazy. Unforgettable.

18. Season 3 part 2 for sure. Him sweeping his hair back from his forehead to show the world the scar Hannibal left him? Confident af and fully in his professor-dilf-sweater clothing era? Sign me UP!

23. I answered this in a previous ask!

[s-wave-entertainment]

OOOOOH YOU'VE ACTIVATED MY TRAP CARD. STRAP IN, WE'RE GONNA BE HERE ALL NIGHT.

Okay, first order of business - what is Beau and why is he Like That? I got a pretty convincing idea I think. Me personally, I'm of the opinion that Alice found Beau in the wreckage whilst attempting to either escape or corral the sentinels into one place. When the core collapsed, the sentinels were sent into a free-roam mode with one objective: "Eliminate AI Targets." Think about this: we have no idea how MANY subjects were being used for PCF. And on top of that, a number of subjects either A) didn't accept the Solver OS, or B) corrupted while trying to harvest its abilities. Meaning they must have needed more on a near constant basis in order to keep this funded project running successfully. Ergo: pill babies in the facility to keep the project running. When the sentinels were released, it's likely that they found Beau while he was doing the only thing he could - use the audio he was either programmed with or managed to derive to cry out for help (we know that he can play audio via ep. 6, so I think this could work), which accidentally attracted sentinels instead. Brain says that Alice spared him from the sentinels, then decided to keep him around not only because he was some kind of company, but also because he could be useful for harvesting old parts. This brings me to the next point - why is he just an enhanced pill baby? The drones that Alice takes apart are those which have been ravaged by the sentinels ("Sentinel's picked at this one."), so I think the reason he was never transferred into a whole body was because Alice could never find one that would work for him - and couldn't build one from scratch due to either incomplete oil reserves or too many missing/destroyed parts. But what she could do for him is modify what little body he had so he wouldn't have to depend so heavily on her. And of course, so he would be more useful in terms of drone organ harvesting. Which, might I mention, she appears to be doing because she KNOWS what the cores can turn into. May I remind the jury of this bit of dialoue:

Uzi: "Hey, woah! Cut that thing up and you're gonna get a big creepy worm! An improvement~!"

Alice: "Nah, heat keeps 'em sluggish! Ain't our first rodeo."

Alice KNOWS what these things can do. Yes, she's a little crazy, but she's smart - she knows that any drone "infected" has the potential to turn into some eldrige horror and do exactly what Nori did. Or, "Nori." Which brings me to point two: "Who is 'us?'"

I think that by "us," Alice is referring to all of the subjects left behind in the aftermath of he collapse. You said that no other group was seen with Nori/Yeva, but this actually isn't true - Nori, Khan, Yeva, Yeva's Husband, and about three other drones are seen in Khan's photos from when he and Nori escaped that night. This implies that some escaped, and some didn't. Nori herself, in episode 7, claimed that she "Woke up on the surface, brain scrambled enough to have a kid" - which (in my brain) implies that she doesn't remember how she got to the surface. She just kind of "woke up" there; and I think there's some valid evidence to this.

When I first saw this photo, I thought it was just a fun, silly way to show off Nori's character in a single image. But thinking about it, Yeva looks Absolutely Mortified. Nori, who claims to just remember waking up on the surface, appears completely fine. To quote a Cartoon Network commercial from around, oh, 2014,

ARE YOU SEEIN. WHAT WE'RE SAYIN?

I'm suggesting that after protecting Nori from the blast of the core collapse as best as she could, Yeva managed to endure, but Nori collapsed from the strain that had already been placed against her body and mind. Yeva, who didn't want to leave her sister (in my brain they're sisters I'm sorry Supernova shippers no shade-) behind, carried her up to the surface as everything came crashing down and gathered as many drones on the way out as she could. Unfortunately, Alice was not one of the ones she could save. From the message board in the hallway from ep. 7 and the footage recovered from ep. 6, we know the Solver used Nori for not one but TWO major catastrophes, both of which ending in the murder of several tons to several thousands of humans. This explains another Alice line: "Nori, right? Sure thought killin' all them folks was pretty slick." Which means Alice KNOWS about what happened - and hates Nori for it. Which also implies that Alice is unable to draw a line between the Solver and Nori as Yeva has. Or, if she is, she's just choosing not to.

Oh and I wanna add - Alice is no longer at the deepest part of the facility where Uzi and Co were in Ep. 7, meaning either that she only managed to get as far as she did and couldn't press on... or, remember that thing I said earlier about her knowing what the hearts could do? What they had the potential to become? There's the chance that she is staying there willingly, trying to prevent anything else terrible from happening to her. She is actively afraid of the Solver - we saw that when it possessed Uzi just long enough to destroy the door controls and cause a [NULL]. That was the first time we saw Alice actually deterred, let alone frightened. If she fears it, fears what it can do... why risk letting it fester in these labs?

What she didn't know was that she was already too late - the Solver had already festered in the very core of the planet. So... I guess I could see why Liam decided to kill her off.

There was nothing more she could have accomplished.

She had already failed her objective.

...Or so I think. Again, all just my thoughts ;^^

don’t mind me, im just thinkin about murder drones Alice… it just hit me like a ton of bricks earlier, how did she get her accent?

i genuinely don’t know if glitch cares that much about putting details into background characters, she could literally only be made for the sake of exposition and backstory for Nori or to make Uzi and co suffer, (seeing as it’s up in the air whether they meant to put subject 017 under a different name on the solver list in ep 7) but what if i have a little joy in whimsy in my life?

Doll is Russian so of course i’m gonna assume she has Russian code because Yeva is also. i think it’s pretty safe to assume Alice doesn’t have parents, Nori, Yeva Khan and them being all alive to see the destruction of humanity and being the first generation to make pillbabies and all, so i’m gonna say Alice didn’t inherit this accent from anybody.

all this buildup to say… i think it’d be very silly to just think that Alice just really, really liked old western movies and just… picked up the accent and decided to copy it down into her code. this works especially well, dare i say even makes it make so much more sense, to go along with the trans headcanon. when picking a new voice to give herself she rlly just said: i like thissun :)

@s-wave-entertainment since we’ve done some yapping about lore to each other i thought u might find this interesting

[adecila]

Hi. Are you going to do the 2nd ep preview post? I would like to read your opinion.

Hi anon, thank you for being so patient. I watched the promo a bunch of times and I also saw the stills from the episode. Now, in case you avoid spoilers, I am not saying I have them, but I am not sure which information was confirmed by the show runners in interviews by now. I don’t count trailers, promo pics and still as spoilers. If the information comes from an interview, trailer or other official sources, it ain’t a spoiler. 

Moving on..

1. Jaime vs Dany ... 

I have seen some people are talking about Jaime’s trial in episode 2 but I was very confused. I was telling a few friends last night - nowhere have I seen it confirmed. I think someone speculated Jaime is on trial and the entire fandom ran with it. Happens a lot. No, we haven’t had any confirmation this is a trial. And I know people think this is the case because he is standing, you have armed guards behind him somewhere, you get a Dany table and a Jon table... well... no. I disagree. 

Is this meant to somehow parallel the Tyrion trial(s)? No... I don’t think so. Mind you, Jaime is not in chains. This to me looks a lot like a petitioner to the court would be received. You have the monarch (in this case the alliance - Dany in the middle, flanked by Jon and S.nsa), and then you have the rest of the court. Plus, it has been established the North side doesn’t like the Dany side, hence the two tables, hence they sit separately since the Northern Lords are like YoU cAn’T SiT WiTh Us. The guards would and should be there by default. Jaime is standing because he is addressing the Ruler. 

Keep in mind, the previous episode finished with Jaime arriving in incognito mode in WF. Maybe Bran calls the guards and Jaime is taken into the Great Hall to explain himself - not only is he arriving in non Lannister colours, he is also arriving by himself. He’s got some explaining to do, since last these people have met, he was to march to Winterfell with an army to aid in the fight against the Army of the dead. 

About Dany’s discourse - Dany and Jaime haven’t officially met. He tried killing her on the Field of Fire 2.0 and he almost got roasted by her baby Drogon (*pets* the best son ever). They also crossed paths in the Dragon Pit Summit (LMAO idk why I am calling it that; I guess it’s because fake truce or armistice is too much; oooooh let’s call it a parley). But they haven’t actually spoken. And Dany has some things to say to the man who killed her father. In my opinion (but who the fuck knows anymore since the writing is killing me and after episode 1 I have so little faith), Dany will have her Queen mask on, she is angry because quite frankly WHERE THE FUCK IS THE ARMY BITCH. Like ofc this means Cersei betrayed them, you don’t need a genius (*cough* S.. *cough*) to tell you that if he is travelling low key and alone. 

Dany needs closure. She will probably tell Jaime - listen, my brother told me all about you; because you killed my dad we had to flee; because you killed my dad we were poor and starving and on the run; the only thing that made us keep going was fantasising about all the ways we would kill you to avenge our father. I don’t blame them, tbh, it’s quite normal, considering what Viserys was feeding her. But! Dany knows now that Viserys was lying; that her father was a mad man. She knows this from Barristan Selmy. So I am REALLY hoping that heavy and meaningful speech that is making Jaime shit his pants (fo real look at his face lmao someone gif it pls) and Tyrion to look 10 years older is ending in something along the lines of “My daddy was cray cray; you did good; you can live; but try to kill me again and you die.” 

Why? Because it makes sense, and because we have seen Jaime fighting in the trailer, so we know he survives this meeting. 

On the other hands, the Starks also have beef with Jaime fookin Lannister - honestly get in line. 

Now... do I think Bran Starkashian the drama queen (present at the meeting) will drop the bomb that Jaime pushed him out the window? Hmmm... I cannot make up my mind. My issue is that if he does, then it’s gonna create more drama, and after episode 1 I think the writers can bring it up and just gloss over it (ugh remember how they dropped the Viserion is a wight news?). But, I also think that since Bran isn’t Bran anymore, then what does this matter to him? If this were still Bran, sure I could have seen a point in revealing it. They could also just do a Bran vs Jaime scene in which Jaime goes to apologise and Bran just says some trippy shit. 

2. S.ansa vs Dany in the Library (sitting in a tree K-I-.. neah we’re not there yet)

So, as it’s framed, I am guessing Sansa says something to Jaime, hence the look Dany has on her face at the table in the Great Hall - must be something surprising. Then I guess we get their private meeting over how y’all bitches should have never trusted Cersei. I guess S.ansa is at least directly talking to Dany not instead of, ya know, AT HER or ABOUT HER. We also have a still with a fake Dany smile, but I am hoping for some meaningful dialogue here. Dany and S.ansa have quite a lot in common so I really want some meaningful chat here so we can move the fuck on from the train wreck that was the episode 1 welcome. Will this be the episode the writers let S.ansa actually use her brain? We’ll see in 80-ish hours. 

3. Jorah x Varys x Tyrion and then some Sam and some Gilly stills 

I think this is either before or after a joint small council meeting. But since Dany is in her white outside coat again, then it must be after Tormund x Edd arrive. They look intense so maybe it’s more likely afterwards. Maybe something happens in that meeting. 

Also the stills of Jon x Arya and the one of Sam x Jon look from the same place. Sam’s intense look shows me that he might have some residual tension with Jon after that shit reveal. Jondry 5eva.  

The still of Sam x Gilly x Little Sam on the bed is so cuuuute. I hope this is post the crypt discussion with Jon and it’s when GIlly knocks some sense into it. Alternatively, it can be the night before the war for some more extra feels. 

4.  The Forge x Arya 

Guessing Arya is going to Gendry to pick up her new weapon and to deliver her Many Faces speech. Is she saying it to Gendry? I think so. Guess this is also where we gonna see sexy Gendry hehe *Gendrya intensifies*

5. And then it gets weird to me... two battle scenes? MAYBE? WHO THE HELL KNOWS ANYMORE

When I first saw the troops moving in the day, I said cool beans, so maybe preparations. But then I see a catapult going off during the day? And more stress? And more people moving. Tormund x Edd arrive during the day too. And we know they are technically behind the dead, since Last Hearth, where Ned Umber was supposed to be was already passed by the dead (since we got the message) so they can’t be arriving before the dead, can they? So how come they arrive and deliver a “they are coming message” and Jon asks how long do they have? How can they be moving faster than the dead? These aren’t slow zombies and Tormund x Edd don’t have a snowmobile laying around. Do they? 

But then you have night battle scenes or rather preparations: Missandei x Grey Worm kiss, Jorah with Heartsbane I hope (I hope this is Sam’s token of I have been a shitty boy to your Queen pls say sorry), Arya with a bow (I am so turned on btw), Jorah riding with the Dothraki, Tyrion on the battlements, Jon on the battlements, Lyanna Mormont in armour!!!! So something is happening as night too. Is this a continuation from the day prep? Is this something else entirely? Then why fire the catapult? Is it a test? Am I overanalysing? Certainly. 

What is sure though is that we won’t get a battle this episode, we will get the build up to it and everything in between. 

6. Jonerys in the crypts 

Ah again some actual leak info I have from when Friki was still allowed to talk (nothing new, just something he has already said), but I’d rather say in a different post. So this is clearly not following the Sam x Jon chat, since here Jon has his furs, and Dany is dressed again in her outside white fur coat. My bet is this is just before the battle, and Jon went to pay his respects to his dad (and mom?) one last time, because he is an emo sad boy. 

Is this about the reveal? Hmmm not so sure. It is very reminiscent of the Dragon Pit when Jon was sad he had fucked up with Cersei and Dany went to console him. Maybe this is post small council and Dany also goes to console him (she is wearing the white coat there). 

7. More small stuff from the stills that we didn’t get from the promo

Tyrion drinking in front of a fire - maybe he is with Bran, since he is also pictured close/next to a hearth. 

Sansa eating - she could be in the Great Hall. She looks quite relaxed so idk maybe this is in a more informal setting. Maybe it’s the same as the one with Tyrion. 

Bran in front of the Heart Tree during the day - I am hoping one more vision. Maybe this is before Tormund x Edd arrive? Or after? Is Bran trying to see the NK again? 

Gilly outside - maybe she is talking to Davos who seems to be in similar setting in a different still? 

I think I might have skipped some stuff, but feel free to ask :)

I have quite high hopes for this episode. I am hoping it will end the fucking drama once and for all and I am hoping they let Dany speak for herself more, since she was really toning it down in episode 1, in hopes of appeasing the North. But since that didn’t work, I am so fucking ready to see the Dany we know and love. The Queen we chose.
