Like how did ST and I both arrive back at a Syrio reference at the same time?

Pretty sure that’s what gets her killed

Her infinite total and complete badassery?

Go on...

Would fit into the GRRM trope of turning popular tropes on their head. “They can’t kill Ned Stark; he’s the main protagonist” *dies*
“Robb Stark was the real protagonist and has plot armor” *dies*
“Okay, Oberyn Martell is an infinite badass and will kill the mountain” *very dead*

Wait... did.... did people think those two second things????

Syrio isn't dead.

Arya is more badass than Syrio and Oberyn combined.

She is infinite. She is all. She is Arya.

It wouldn’t be right to combat you on your name day

Maybe Catelyn is a better example than Robb for a book reader, but that’s kinda what makes the Red wedding actually shocking

Could the faceless man (or many of them?)

Turn up to help Arya?

He sought her out to begin with

Totally.

Do you think, at this point, the show is "concerned" with shock value? I kinda hope they're just thinking about telling the best story possible. But I worry that they want to have one more "Game of Thrones Shocker!" before wrapping up forever.

Dany in the weird maze thing with the mindfuck magaicians who’ve captured her dragons is the most pointless tangent in this whole series I reckon

Although the vision of the iron throne with the snow and the roof burned is worth it

Hard to say without knowing the overall point to the story

Look, I'm not much of bragger. I kind of hate that. But y'all better hope Dany dies next week. Because if she doesn't... I'm about to become SO infinitely insufferable. I'm going to throw that shit in SO many faces. You're only hope is to pray that she bites it. You've been warned.

Anders · **Posted:** Thu April 25, 2019 9:30 pm

It’s way too early for her to die.

epilogue · **Posted:** Thu April 25, 2019 9:30 pm

Just be warned, Dany hater.

Anders · **Posted:** Thu April 25, 2019 9:33 pm

Not a big fan of the character, and many of her actions (love the actress). But don’t think she will die yet.

There's only 3 episodes left after this one! We only have 4% of the series remaining.

PS only 3 out of 8 people who have guessed in the Battle of Winterfell prediction thread have labeled Dany as a goner.

And if you haven't yet, go put your predictions in, everyone!
