Thread needs more Aurane Waters chat. What is that crazy boat guy up to these days? Is he: 1. Secretly building a huge fleet of ships by poaching from the Iron Fleet and Aegon's elephant armada? 2. Trying to meet Dany and give her boats because he's Targ-lite and everybody wants to meet Dany these days? 3. Teaming up with Aeron Greyjoy who also disappeared in Feast for their own spinoff series 4. Dead 5. Doesn't matter, next book ain't coming out

For some reason I thought his fleet was already destroyed by the Greyjoys (the very brief reference to the destroyed ships Sam passes). edit: even if the next book does come out we probably won't hear about him again. 24-7 Urkel Cosplay fucked around with this message at 20:06 on May 16, 2012 |

Show chat: it's hard to think of anything stupider than Cersei and the Kingslayer openly talking to anyone who will listen about how they are the parents of the King. In the books everyone knows, but you just can't say something like that out loud!

Cersei didn't state it openly. She said it to Tyrion after all her handmaidens had been dismissed. Kingslayer is stupid, but that's what you get when you move everything from a castle to a camp.

I seem to remember him admitting it in the books as well? Or is that just to Tyrion.

But he's locked deep in a dungeon where literally only Catelyn and Brienne can hear him. In the show he's in the middle of a camp where there are people right outside straining to listen in.

Question: If we ghost wrote Winds of Winter and published it under GRRM's name, do you think he'd say anything or would he just take credit for it and go back to watching football?

Jaime was all about just coming right out and admitting the kids were his, Targaryen style.

This part for some reason made me laugh really hard when I read it. It was near the end of Cersei's total meltdown, right?

Nope, pretty near the beginning. Remember that all the ships were built after she assumed full regency of the throne. She just snapped really really hard after the one-two punch of Joffrey and Tywin's deaths at the hand of Tyrion (well, so she believes).

I meant the part where he just peaces out with all of the ships. Unless you meant that part too. I don't know, time loses meaning when I try to think back through the books. It's like a rapey Memento.

I've been traveling for what feels like an eternity, and I missed around 700 posts of this thread. Did anything change in my absence? P.S. New Jersey sucks and it's really awkward trying to pump my own gas only to be told that some old guy has to do it for me so even though I already did half the tank myself I have to step away from the pump or risk offending him.

At this point, I'd probably prefer a goon-written TWOW. It'd see release sooner and focus on the better characters like Edd and ~Daario~.

I volunteer to write all the zombie Jon and D. Edd sex scenes. And yes, I will make ample use of the phrase "winter is coming." And Khal Pono will capture Dany and take her to Vaes Dothrak to entertain his khalasar as the amazing making GBS threads woman. She will do various tricks such as making GBS threads through flaming hoops and poo poo-shooting milk bottles off of posts.
