  1. Yes. When the character was written into the story, it was nothing more than a plot device, which is very unsatisfying, I think.
  2. I wonder whether the George knows this? He might be trying to help Stannis, but he’s actually ruining his teeth twice over. Of course the eventual face melting by dragonsfire is going to be really bad for his teeth.
  3. Wow, I never noticed that Rhaenyra never had a problem with Daemon and Mysaria, and Rhaenyra only had a problem with Nettles after Mysaria openly accused Nettles of sharing Daemon’s bed. and that’s what Daemon must have been hinting at when he said a queen’s words, a whore’s work…
  4. This… Theon’s impression of Jeyne Poole in The Prince of Winterfell, Dance Made me think of this… Jon to Arya in Arya I, Dance
  5. Oh wow, I never noticed that Lady Barbrey of House Dustin gave Little Walder and Big Walder grey colts… GUEST GIFTS!
  6. This… The Wayward Bride, Dance Made me think of Sansa’s conspiracy to escape with Dontos. And that got me thinking of this.
  7. After leaving the Shy Maid for the Golden Company encampment Aegon passes willows, poppies and a windmill. The willows make sense since he was following the course of the Rhoyne. Poppies are sometimes used in literature to symbolize rebirth and a remembrance of the fallen in battle. Windmills suggest imaginary enemies and futile battles.
  8. If Aegon is The Blackfyre, I don’t think Lemore knows, since she tries to persuade Jon Connington not to reveal him to the Golden Company at Volon Therys.
  9. Why do you suppose The George had Quaithe stand under a persimmon tree?
  10. Why do you suppose The George had Quaithe stand under a persimmon tree?
  11. Before the show runners did what they did a lot of folks here argued vociferously that Stannis was the Azor Ahai.
  12. No. One of her blood riders told Quaithe not to touch Daenerys.
  13. This… Bran I, Dance 4 Foreshadows the wight ambush in Bran I, Dance 13.
  14. I don’t know about Maester Aemon, but in Daenerys I, Dance 2, The George has Viserion coiled round a pear tree. The pear is often used to symbolize femininity. And later Quentyn notes that Viserion has been nesting.
  15. I have decided that Tom of Sevenstreams sounds like a cross between Paul Rogers and Ian Anderson.
  16. Peter plans to have Harry the Heir marry Sansa, then kill Sweetrobin, and then kill Harry as soon as he has a son with Sansa. Then he can marry Sansa and at least claim to rule three of the Seven Kingdoms.
  17. If Fat Walda weighed in at 19 stone maybe Walder only paid 19 silver stags.
  18. Never mind… It has to be an ERROR. It would force Sam 3, Feast 26 to happen before Sam 1, Feast 5, and obviously, that can’t be. So, the mate aboard the Volantene galley newly arrived in Braavos in Cat of the Canals, Feast 34 must have mistaken another ship for Old Mother’s Son.
  19. @Rhaenys_Targaryen, Are you still around? I think I stumbled on a complication with the placement of the Arya Feast chapters in the Most Precise ASOIAF Timeline. Consider the Old Mother’s Son one of Salladhor Saab’s ships. In Cat of the Canals a mate aboard a Volantine galley newly arrived in Braavos reports being attacked by Old Mother’s Son. And when Davos visits Sisterton he reports that Old Mother’s Son ran aground at Skagos after Stannis dispatched his hand to treat with Lord Wyman and before Cersei learns falsely that Wyman has beheaded Davos.
  20. The Iron Captain, Feast Of course Euron knows the Faceless Man has no name.
  21. Things like, "What the fuck did you do to that cat? I am going to knock your teeth out, you little bastard."
