The symbolism of kisses

[Evolett]

Kissed by fire..... another try. Maybe I'm stating the obvious but have we considered the Legend of Qarth? 

Quote

“He told me the moon was an egg, Khaleesi,” the Lysene girl said. “Once there were two moons in the sky, but one wandered too close to the sun and cracked from the heat. A thousand thousand dragons poured forth, and drank the fire of the sun. That is why dragons breathe flame. One day the other moon will kiss the sun too, and then it will crack and the dragons will return.” The two Dothraki girls giggled and laughed. “You are foolish strawhead slave,” Irri said. “Moon is no egg. Moon is god, woman wife of sun. It is known.” 

The moon kisses the sun and the resulting children drink the sun's fire, that is they inherit the fire of the sun. The moon is kissed by the sun or kisses the sun and becomes kissed by fire. But the moon is a woman, like Dany, moon of Drogo's life, her sun-and-stars. Dany kisses the sun and births dragons. 

A woman kissed by fire is a potential mother of dragons. But the moon is also an egg. When Dany emerges from Drogo's pyre, she's been "kissed by fire" again - and she loses all her hair, she's as bald as an egg. So if this has merit, then Egg, companion to Dunk, was probably also "kissed by fire." He may be the first we can identify with a specific component of the blood of the dragon after the Targs lost it through  the Dance. That would explain the connection between the lucky ones who are kissed by fire and the lucky lemurs of Qohor with Valyrian features.

I think the salient kiss for Sansa is going to be the "clumsy" Sweetrobin kiss

You're probably right. It's the only genuine kiss she's received so far. What happens when two people kissed by fire kiss? 

LF is said to have a talent for "rubbing two golden dragons together to breed a third." But gold on its own is cold (hands of gold are always cold but a woman's hands are warm). By taking a kiss from Sansa, he may be seeking her "dragonfire" to turn cold golden dragons into hot fire-breathing ones. And it also supports the Nissa Nissa allusion to Sansa kissing Joffery's sword to turn it into a Lightbringer sword we had earlier. 

If Petyr is based on "Peter," meaning rock or stone, LF wanting dragonfire would align with his position as Lord of Harrenhal. Perhaps he's indirectly taking possession of Harrenhal through Sansa without going there to make it official. To avoid the curse he himself mentions perhaps.
