I like Daenerys but I’m hoping for Jon Snow to get his happy ever after, and Arya too :)

Oooh - excited by exclusive rude Hound shirt and un-dead LF theory ... DS thinks Stannis - being the Mannis and the One True King ( according to DS ) is not dead and just biding his time ...

I mean, from Sansa's perspective it's "Danaerys Who?" - this white haired invader who's swanning in with her superior attitude and her dragons and her thousands of mouths to feed after spending her life sunning herself in the East whilst they were all suffering.

Yes! Especially because Danaerys' father, the Mad King, burned Sansa's grandfather to death and killed her uncle Brandon. I can't see Sansa being all sisterly to an arrogant upstart who gets all preachy about 'breaking the wheel' while demanding everyone bend the knee to her and thirsting after the Iron Throne.

My theories / hopes:

Jaime will kill Cersei in a desperate murder/suicide.

The fire dragons will burn Mad Eye Euron's fleet and kill the kraken that he raises (dying in the process).

The Night King kills Danaerys and is defeated in single combat with Jon, causing all the Wights (including the ice dragon Viserion) to die, Jon later dies of his injuries.

Sam and Gilly to rule the 8 Kingdoms (now including a new territory of Wildlingland) with little Sam.

Sansa and Tyrion to rule the North together based on mutual respect and a burgeoning love.

Arya and the Hound to ride around Westeros keeping the peace.

Lyanna Mormont to be the new Lord Commander of the Nights Watch.

TimeIhadaNameChange · 12/01/2019 16:15

I wonder if Sam will have to make the choice betwen becoming the youngest Archmaester ever, or Hand of the King. Whichever he chooses, with JS on the throne listening to him he could end up basically ruling the Kingdoms. I think he and JS would make a great leadership.

crispysausagerolls · 12/01/2019 16:56

I desperately want Sansa back with Tyrion. I do feel like Tyrion and Dany were a lot less interesting last season.

Nanny0gg · 12/01/2019 18:14

What will happen to Jorah? All that unrequited love!

sproutlove · 12/01/2019 18:15

What are the timings between Sansa escaping from Ramsey and the last episode? Has anyone worked it out? I've not looked back, but I recall Sansa wearing cloaks etc last season when she was at Winterfell.

sproutlove · 12/01/2019 18:16

aw Jorah!
What about Dany's bit of hot stuff that she left behind? Will he turn up?

Snapsnapsnap · 12/01/2019 18:35

I want Sansa and Tyrion to get back together. She'll realise he is a good, humane, interesting man who killed his girlfriend and certainly one of the best the Seven Kingdoms have to offer, thus completing her growth into a powerful, competent woman. If she's pregnant, she'll do some juju to get rid of it which will also make her infertile. Then they will adopt Jon and Dany's orphaned daughter, who they will guide as heads of the two/three most powerful houses.

Snapsnapsnap · 12/01/2019 18:36

On the Guardian comments thy call Jorah Ser Friendzone.

CalmDownPacino · 12/01/2019 18:40

It's all been a dream. Ned Stark will wake up in bed at Winterfell thinking, christ, I shouldn't have had that cheese last night.

IPromiseIWontBeNaughty · 12/01/2019 18:46

Lyanna Mormont - underused & underrated!

CalmDownPacino · 12/01/2019 18:48

Ellaria Sand definitely deserves the death she got. She killed Cersei's daughter. As vile as Cersei is, I think that the love for her children is/was her only redeeming feature. Now they're all gone she's lost that last spark of humanity.

CalmDownPacino · 12/01/2019 18:49

Ooh unpopular opinion but I think Lyanna Mormont is massively overrated! Wooden IMO.....

LaurieMarlow · 12/01/2019 18:55

Ooh unpopular opinion but I think Lyanna Mormont is massively overrated!

I don't disagree with you. She's no Arya.

She had that one big scene and I think everyone was looking for a new child star and northern stalwart to root for.

She's not that high profile in the books, so I can't see her having a big role in the endgame, though D&D will probably big her up in line with how popular she is.

Butchyrestingface · 12/01/2019 19:09

Thank FUCK for that. You can have Arya. Just don't look askance at her otherwise she might skewer you through the throat and then bake you in a pie. Grin

CalmDownPacino · 12/01/2019 19:34

I don't like Arya either. She's a total loon!

ElspethFlashman · 12/01/2019 19:46

I think Lyanna is hilarious. She's like a small grim Sean Bean.

I cannot wait till she meets her uncle. I bet she'll have some choice words for him. Exiled for slaving and leaving them in the shit. I hope she'll go through him for a shortcut. Two fan faves having a barney. Love it.

ASongOfRiceAndPeas · 12/01/2019 19:46

I think Bran will be the night king too and the Starks are intrinsically linked to the Others.... sorry the White walkers, so it makes sense. He and the night king are both wargs, like a pp said with the Hodor episode it’s entirely possible. The night king has been trying for some time to ‘tap’ into Bran and had made progress (touching his arm in the dream) and wants his all knowing, all seeing powers - if he does fully warg into bran the white walkers will win.

Although I’ve always supported Dany’s Claim she is so self righteous now I don’t think she deserves the throne. Love Jon but he won’t sit on the Iron Throne I don’t think.

Why does everyone hate Arya? She’s a badass.

BartonHollow · 12/01/2019 19:48

Yes that's one of my must see reunions along with

Jon/Arya
Gendry/Arya
Hound/Arya
Sam/Jon

AND

Melisandre/Arya

We will meet again, Melisandre said

crispysausagerolls · 12/01/2019 20:12

I hate Ayra in the show because she’s always been very whiny and grumpy and because she left the Hound for dead/didn’t see how he cared for her.

She’s much more likeable in the books.

MyOtherProfile · 12/01/2019 20:30

I want to see the Sansa/Hound reunion most of all

ElspethFlashman · 12/01/2019 20:38

I hate Arya in the show cos she seems to be really mean and twisted.

She used to have a personality. Now she just has a sinister smile. It's not the same thing.

Holidayshopping · 12/01/2019 21:45

Arya/hound reunion will be fab!

EwItsAHooman · 12/01/2019 22:08

The night king has been trying for some time to ‘tap’ into Bran and had made progress (touching his arm in the dream) and wants his all knowing, all seeing powers - if he does fully warg into bran the white walkers will win.

Bran has to die then to stop that from happening. Wonder who he'll ask to do the deed? Jon? Arya?

I want Davos and Lyanna to be besties, he needs someone to replace Shireen.

Cersei and Jamie have to have a joint death that'll happen so unexpectedly it'll be a real "wtf!?" moment, sort of like a PP's suggestion of him grabbing her and jumping off the battlements. Remember when Tommen died? He stepped off camera and there was the sound of him putting his crown down then he stepped back into shot and straight out of the window. It was such a simple death but was one of the saddest and most shocking in the whole series.

RJnomore1 · 12/01/2019 22:20

Tommem made me saddest of any of the deaths I think.

I think tyrion might kill dany. Either as part of whatever he's promised cersei or to stop something awful.

She has got to be pregnant, wonder how much time this last series covers.
