"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I have now achieved maximum nerd.

Remember when Jon B. went to theremin camp? You have now reached that level.

There were parts of this ep that dragged (like, dragons are cool and all, but that dragon ride went on forever and also felt hilariously Disney)

My feelings exactly. That time could have been used for more story!

Arya jumping into Jon's arms was adorable. Jon asking her if she's killed anyone with her sword had me cackling, because oh honey, your sister has probably hands-on killed more people than you.

Also, Arya's interaction with The Hound was note-perfect. I still want them to end up as friends, but who knows if that'll happen.

SANSA IS THE SMARTEST PERSON. I want the show to end with her on the Iron Throne.

Jon has 86 kills, while Sansa has 64.

Edit: That count includes Jon's killing of the undead, which I don't think is exactly fair.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

That was some impressive nerdage, Tom.

Scola with the answer! But yeah, I don't think the killing of the undead counts.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I found myself really really pretty over any and all Targaryen nonsense and am now firmly rooting for Sansa to win with Lady Mormont as her Hand.

This! This!

Because books.

Does Sands really want the It on Throne, though? I see her as Queen in the North with Arya as...her badass.

A little more seriously, I can imagine iron throne devolving into a federated... thing at the end? The EU of Westeros (hopefully with less Brexit?) I mean, the whole "you're all kings, but this one king is the real king" thing hasn't really been a big winner, and in spite of my wishes the plot momentum is leaning hard into the Targaryen Nonsense formerly known as Snow, and I don't think he particularly wants the job either...
