Dead Man Posting posted:I think Zombie Jon has a meeting with power somehow connected to Winterfell given the flashbacks of Ned in GoT, the young fine gentlement in my avatar placing Jon as heir until Bran/Rickon come of age, and Jon remembering (and ultimately forgetting) his oath as a Night's Watch. On a book club context, we see Ned being more of a father figure and Jon being the son, rather than Rob, in the series. Thoros of Myr is the red priest who resurrected Beric Dondarrion. I think he's largely known for going into battle with a flaming sword. Wun Wun is the giant that Jon adopts.

Xiahou Dun posted:So, for the record, can I get clarification of who we think might be Azor Ahai? Brienne, Brienne is Azor Ahai. She's got an ice sword that was reforged into a red fire sword and she's gonna stab her true love with it and make it magic and poo poo. Jon isn't Azor Ahai, Jon will be the avatar of the great other and lead the ice zombies to rampage across the world. His second in command will be undead Melisandre and her head will be backwards 'cause he'll break her neck(because he's an ice zombie) but that's okay because being an ice zombie preserves your tits. It's symbolic, you see, because she misused the power of prophecy, and therefore will be cursed to look backwards forever and also give really awkward blowjobs. Also, the ice zombies are actually coming to save the world from the dragons, who are evil and manipulating Dany, who is a thundering moron.

Remember what Ned(?) said in GoT: "A Stark must sit in Winterfell"

Just read a theory over on Reddit that Aegon is a Blackfyre heir as possibly foreshadowed by Septon Meribald in AFFC: "...He forged a new sign for the yard, a three-headed dragon of black iron that he hung from a wooden post. The beast was so big it had to be made in a dozen pieces, joined with rope and wire. When the wind blew it would clank and clatter, so the inn became known far and wide as the Clanking Dragon." "Is the dragon sign still there?" asked Podrick. "No," said Septon Meribald. "When the smith's son was an old man, a bastard son of the fourth Aegon rose up in rebellion against his trueborn brother and took for his sigil a black dragon. These lands belonged to Lord Darry then, and his lordship was fiercely loyal to the king. The sign of the black iron dragon made him wroth, so he cut down the post, hacked the sign to pieces, and cast them into the river. One of the dragon's heads washed up on the Quiet Isle many years later, though by that time it was red with rust." The idea being that Aegon would be the one of the dragon's heads, symbolizing a Blackfyre heir returning, that would turn red with rust, symbolizing Aegon being seen as a "Targaryen."

Azure_Horizon posted:Just read a theory over on Reddit that Aegon is a Blackfyre heir as possibly foreshadowed by Septon Meribald in AFFC: I don't think this has to mean that a Blackfyre will be recognized as legitimate, more that the Golden Company left as a black dragon and comes back with a red head. This does work as a nod to Aegon being a legitimate Targ leading an army that left because of their loyalty to the black dragons though.

Every stool was looser than the one before, and smelled fouler. By the time the moon came up she was making GBS threads brown water. The more she drank, the more she shat, but the more she shat, the thirstier she grew, and her thirst sent her crawling to the stream to suck up more water. You're welcome for the shitpost, thread.

Not trained medically/biochemically at all so I'm likely to gently caress terms up pretty bad, but: That's just diarrhea. You get dehydrated pretty quickly if you've got really bad diarrhea, and so you don't have the spare water to poo poo. But if you don't drink water after dehydrating yourself like that you're gonna die. So it was the berries, the water just made it possible to get through the food poisoning. e: Also you guys are forgetting her bleeding from menstruation/miscarriage while making GBS threads.

All of them spending hours handling corpses infected with a disease with a 75% mortality rate should have had consequences. Targs are supposed to be mostly disease proof but yeah I was expecting her posse to start dying.

Factor_VIII posted:When she went "welp, I hear Targs are immune to disease so it should be totally fine if I handle all these infected corpses" I thought she was setting herself up to get seriously ill and infect her court and city due to her naivety and arrogance. After all, this sounded like the sort of propaganda a royal house would come up with to try and separate itself from the masses and justify its ruling position. But then again Danny is also fireproof, so maybe Targs are supposed to be supernaturally resistant to stu

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rOzXsqoJhtE&feature=player_embedded Trailer for the new season of the show. We get to see the riot in King's Landing, Joff be a oval office, Sansa be weepy and useless, Dany still can't act for poo poo, and they're playing up Tyrion, which is fine by me.
