Too much time on their hands between books.

That and the prevalence of secret identities, baby swaps, etc in the books. But mostly just the fact that people go insane in the 5+ years between books.

The change in Daarios was like super jarring. They don't look anything alike, they don't act anything alike...and the character had a little bit too much screentime to forget between seasons

Yeah but we know so much about what HAS to happen that anyone could guess about the last season and get half the story beats right.

Yeah I was just thinking that. If that leak is 100% made-up some of it will still end up happening just because it's a logical direction for the story to go in. Like there's about a 99% chance there will be a battle at Winterfell and that the heroes will lose the battle, just because that's a logical place for the white walkers to go next and it would be pretty anticlimactic to beat them in the first fight.

One reason I think the spoilers are fake is that Howland Reed shows up for no loving reason when his narrative purpose has already been exhausted. I really doubt they'd waste time on that poo poo with 6 episodes left.

GRRM won't live long enough to write 4 more books. If he does, 2 of them will be wildcards and 1 will be a history of the valyrian empire. I just want him to wrap up TWOW in the next year or two and then get ADOS out even if it means going through plot bullet-points like the show.

It wasn't really anything related to the end of the series as we know it.

Maybe the mark has something to do with Bran being the Night's King. I know the actor says the theory is bullshit but they've changed the NK's face to look markedly more similar to Bran lately.

She also mentioned that Cersi is going to have a dwarf, and die during child birth.

I always thought this would be a perfect end to Cersei.
