Gendry looks good in black Posted May 25, 2019 Share Posted May 25, 2019 Gendry becoming a lord was bullshit anyway. Boy can't even read. They just combined his story with Edric Storm. I can't see Gendry even stomaching the idea of banging Sansa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He asks her whether she would visit him. If she could, then he stays at Castle Black but because they had to separate him, they sent her away in the middle of nowhere. At no point in the show, did I get any hint that Arya loves sailing. The issue is it isn’t clear whether she even returns or not or does she get killed. If she retires to Winterfell after a couple of decades I can see her settling down with Gendry. Don't you think gendry would be married by then? He needs heirs too.

Sansa might settle for Gendry, she was already supposed to marry Baratheons. Sansa needs a bastard or a man willing to take her name. The Mormont women seem to give their kids the mormont name. Or a kid from one of her siblings. Let’s say Jon stays. We know Sam broke his vows. He has a son he is passing as his own and another on the way. Jon could end up with a kid like Sam did.

Also, remind me how Gendry and Sansa (hence gendry and arya) are related. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, remind me how Gendry and Sansa (hence gendry and arya) are related. Marrying the sister of the girl who turned you down means you have be reminded of that forever. That's got to be horrible for him. Sansa and Jon are cousins because both are descended from Rickard Stark. Jon and Gendry are cousins because both are descended from Aegon V. Therefore Sansa is Gendry's cousin's cousin and Gendry is Sansa's cousin's cousin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another would be to be an adult and get over a rejection, let bygones be bygones and move on, and look at Sansa as individual and not just Arya's sister. 13 minutes ago, CrypticWeirwood said: Sansa and Jon are cousins because both are descended from Rickard Stark.

So Sansa (and arya) does not possess any common genes with gendry till at least Aegon V, correct? where does the ick factor come in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said that they were both each other's cousin's cousin. Sansa and Jon share genes, and Jon and Gendry share genes, but it’s not transitive genetically. It’s still extended family. So ick.

In medieval times few lords could read. It's more about what a poor decision it was by D&D to combine Gendry and Edric's stories. They just made him lord cause he was the last Baratheon. It's also completely out of character for Gendry to want to be a lord. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is GoT where targs marry siblings. Ick apparently doesn't exist in this universe Out of curiosity, don't you think gendry arya would be icky too then?

The Mormont women seem to give their kids the mormont name. Well precisely. All the talk about Gendry ignores the fact that his children are going to be Baretheons. When I was talking of Arya staying I meant as Sansa appointing her as lady of one of the many now vacant castles in the north and then Arya marrying someone who would take her name. I was talking therefore of the duty that comes with being part of a great house, not her romantic interests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be complicated and messy, but it could be managed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
