MostlyMoody Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 'CAN Davos kill Osha?' Is a better question imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eating My Wings Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 If anything Davos will be in danger of being killed by Shaggy/Rickon.No. The direwolves can tell a good man from a bad one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blood of the Flagon Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 No. The direwolves can tell a good man from a bad one.I think this is true. Davos has already been judged as true by supernatural means. Melisandre knows that he hates her and the Lord of Light but vouches for his honesty and loyalty to stannis because she sees it in her flames. Why couldn't a dire wolf also sniff it out?

Kaitscralt Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 Seriously is there any way to alter the title of this thread. I can't get past the youth speak. :rofl:You definitely have your priorities set for the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dryhtscipe Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 What makes you think that Shaggydog didn't rip Osha to pieces the first time she told Rickon it was time to go to sleep and he didn't want to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Runaway Penguin Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 Because Manderly knows both of them went over? :PBesides while doggies seem to reflect their owners, they also seem to have good sense of who to eat and who not to eat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fiekie Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 Why on earth would Davos want to? And unless the place teensy tiny there's no reason why Davos would even see them. And even if they did miraculously bump into each other, how will Davos know that it's Rickon? Have they met before? Does Davos even have reason to think he's alive? Maybe I'm missing something but as far as I know the whole world thinks he's dead??Plus I can't see Osha telling anyone "oh by the way, here's the last surviving male stark. who is 7 years old. Alone. With just me to protect him." Doesn’t make sense. Most likely she's pretending to be his mother and they're both laying waaaaay low.

The Weirwoods Eyes Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 I'm going to assume that on arrival at Skagos Davos will begin to enquire after a small child and a huge Direwolf who are accompanied by a wildling woman and that some one will have noted their arrival on the island. Osha and Rickon will have had to acquire a boat from somewhere in order to get to Skagos in the first place, and then there is the small matter of safely landing said boat, its likely that Skagos only has a handful of safe places to do that. Then they have to find food and shelter, possibly buying or stealing a horse to travel the island in order to find a quite place to hide out. All of this draws attention. I'm willing to bet Davos does find them. Otherwise its going to be a pretty dull story arc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dryhtscipe Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 how will Davos know that it's Rickon?Direwolf.Either he runs into a young boy with a crazy-ass direwolf and goes "Oh, that's Rick-argharghmeleg-" or he doesn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dragon Queen Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 What makes you think that Shaggydog didn't rip Osha to pieces the first time she told Rickon it was time to go to sleep and he didn't want to?as funny as that might be lol i think is entirely possible!

Northbound Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 I wouldn't be surprised if he had to kill Shaggydog though.By himself? I don't see that taking place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mindchap Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 Evidence plz.Sam, Tyrion, the NW gang, oh wait maybe it's just Ghost who's good at it. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sleeper Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 What makes you think that Shaggydog didn't rip Osha to pieces the first time she told Rickon it was time to go to sleep and he didn't want to?She was hearding him around during their departure form Winterfel without nuch poroblem. Besides wild as he is Shaggydog hasn't actually killed anyone so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dryhtscipe Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 Sam, Tyrion, the NW gang, oh wait maybe it's just Ghost who's good at it. :)Sam is just terrified. While dogs often sense fear, and, if afraid themselves, react poorly to it (because of an expectation of attack), if a calm dog meets a fearful human, they can react quite well (if their master is also calm). Because there's no threat at all.Tyrion is not even remotely a nice person - he's just wholly nonthreatening. Not to mention that the direwolves did not react pleasantly to him elsewhere - in fact, they seemed ready to rend him limb from limb, at Winterfell!What this shows is that Ghost reacts entirely to Jon's reaction to people. Jon didn't see Tyrion as a threat; he didn't see Sam as a threat; he had bested all of his fellow recruits with a sword, and none of them were a threat. The only ones Ghost reacts negatively to are the ones Jon doesn't like, and is agitated around.Which is pretty in keeping with how dogs behave, but also in keeping with that whole warging bond, which should make that natural reaction even stronger.

Besides wild as he is Shaggydog hasn't actually killed anyone so far.Yeah I think the only reason he attacked Luwin was because Rickon had dreamed of their father and was probably terrified at the time. The Direwolves seem to know what's best for their Stark, like when Ghost ratted out Jon to Sam and Co. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Furthermore, Bran was there during the departure from Winterfell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frey-A-La-Mode Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 Evidence plz.Someone already mentioned that Summer knew Sam was friends with Ghost (and that this is the thing that finally convinces Bran to trust Sam) but another piece of evidence is Grey Wind not trusting Rolph Spicer (whose sister is Sybell Westerling [Jeyne Westerling's mother] with whom Rolph helped to plot out the Red Wedding). Grey Wind takes an immediate dislike to Rolph Spicer, and Catelyn urges Robb to send him away on some pretext (which Robb does, to the Golden Tooth on a hostage exchange). Now this is probably weeks before the Red Wedding, but right from the get go, Grey Wind can tell that Rolph is bad news. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
