If I'm remembering the series of events correctly, Sansa slaps Robin, this leads to Petyr kissing Sansa (which her aunt sees), Sansa's aunt threatens to throw her out the moon door, "Only Cat"

WOAH. even years later, this show has layers! I never could figure out who Yer Siztar was, or why Petyr Littlefinger loved them so much (at first i thought he said 'Ser Siztar' and i was like "wtf???? lol"), but it totally makes sense that it was one of Cat Stark's nicknames. Different names for characters is a big theme in GOT so i should have expected it. Now i'm wondering if s6 will show us some of these other important mentioned characters. Like, Tuwen T. Goodmen is apparently a badass but we never see them.... mysterious right? THINK AGAIN! Remember Vargo Hoat (the show calls him Locke, but bookreaders know what his real name is, foreshadowing his other-other nickname as Goodmen)? He is loyal to ramsey and a ruthless warrior, evidence is when he cut off Kingslayer's hand. But you're thinking "wait, tin can made man, he went to Night's Watch and was killed by Hodor" and yeah, that's true, but other characters at Night's Watch have died and come back before (shhhh, s6 spoiler, dont tell the show watchers!), so why not Vargo? Who else but a wight walker could have teamed up with Ramsey and owned Stannis so hard? More bookbased theory (sorry, show watchers lol), but who do you guys think the (presumably) Dornish warrior called The Bad Pussy is? Clearly, TBP is a skilled fighter, since Nym tells bronn and kingslayer that they "need" him, probably to find out who killed Mirsella and get vengeance (sidenote: how does Nym know this will happen? is she a warg like John Snow???). Seems like TBP could be anyone, but my personal theory is that its Darkstar. We all know Darkstar is the most dangerous man in Dorne, so he would be the best candidate to help Bronn and Jamie get revenge. Maybe they'll stick together and be a team in the next season too (just like bronn and jamie did)... with The Mountain and Sanders both dead, together they'd be the deadliest fighters in Westeros.... which might be a problem for Khaleesi when she rides her dragons to take the IT this season >:)

I'm foolishly trusting GRRM on one promise he made - no honorary PhD until Winds is out. One would think George appreciates that and actually finishes it within our lifespan.

As the gurm points out calendars are actually never based on the changing of the seasons, the weather is actually somewhat fickle and unreliable as far as time keeping is concerned. Gurm actually hosed up in that he still ties the length of the days to the changing of seasons wherein the length of days is only a function of the planet's position and tilt relative to the sun, if the seasons in westeros are magical rather than astronomical there is no real reason for the days to grow shorter at the onset of winter. But he can just handwave everything away so who cares really.

Though I would like it if Jon comes back after literally being stabbed to death on screen, but Stannis never does even though it wasn't shown. That would be a good TV way of eschewing conventions.

Unless the magically based seasons work by affecting the world's tilt. We've seen absolutely nothing of the southern continent. I don't think we even know where the equator is but south of it they may have the same long unreliable seasons as Westeros only inverted.

If you assume there is no one who'd be oblivious enough to call Jon Snow a "peacenik" when his endgame is about taking on Others, someone will inevitably appear somewhere with said beliefs. That said, it's Hound - I was thinking of Beric but BoB weren't exactly peaceful and it's a couple years since I read Dragons.

Elder Brother seems like such a small character for Ian McShane, but maybe he's getting Bad Pussy'd into a big role like Pod was. Also, I guess sandor being alive will be even more explicit in the show; to what end, I've no clue but D&D are big enough hacks to make cleganebowl an actual thing

I figured he was going to be Septon Meribald and he was just speaking in the sense that by meeting him the characters and viewers will get to see Sandor again. Since Sansa is likely to be with Brienne when she meets the Hound, I guess there's going to be some resolution of their weird fondness for each other.

Sansa is staying North, though. Brienne is being channelled back to her own plot, and Sansa to hers, the latter at the point after she's done with whatever babysitting she must do in the Vale in the books. Also, if having the Hound back means a choice between SanSan or Cleganebowl, sign me up for the Bowl. With Martin, it can go either way, though.

But yeah, I didn't remember that there are rumors indicating that Sansa will be at Winterfell toward the end of the season.
