Um.
Hello?
Anyone still alive out there?
Three of you? I guess that’s enough to do a Twitter post with.
(Plus I have no aversion to using the words of dead people to further my WotW ambitions.)
You know the drill. @Axechucker! @WatchersOTWall! And @You!
Mmmm… GO!
So people were still abuzz over last week’s episode…

Always.
So I asked the THRONERS what they felt the best case and worst-case outcomes might b–
When we get angry, do we have raging Throners?
I’ll just ban myself.
β Ros of the North, Lady Game Over (@GameOverRos) April 28, 2019
…Ros.
Our tears shall be the lubricant for our Throner.

That. That pun is the worst case scenario. It’s been realized.
β Not Bri. Just me. (@BeautyBrienne) April 28, 2019
Yes. Ros was pre-banned.
#BANNED
In no particular order for worst or best:
– Ice Spiders
– Winterfell falls but thereβs a dragon underneath and he kills all the white walkers and the NK and his name is Macomber.
– Cold food
– Have to have an awkward convo with Jorah when he doesnβt want to give my sword back.β Samwell Tarly (@theSamwellTarly) April 28, 2019
Hereβs my best case. A mid battle love confession and then a kiss while they take out some white walkers. Also…neither of them die. #wishfulthinking #gameofthrones pic.twitter.com/AydnaKxU88

….I would love that, honestly. No apologies.
Worst: Accepting the fact that I will be having a funeral for all of my imaginary friends at work on Monday.
Best: Same…the show should be tragic, that’s what draws me to it. No more Ex Machinas.β Cody (@CodyStormPanic) April 28, 2019
Worst case: Dany goes mad and Tyrion cites PMS as her undoing. Theon dies for Jon.

…Next post.
To Be Continued, nerds!
Twitter strikes again! These are a joy! Thank you!
I thought the episode was masterful…
And I could see everything very well on my 10 year old cheap TV.
Ahh!!! Waiting the next part.
Glorious as ever
Woo! Thanks Axey! I too was grateful for those commercials so my heart rate could stabilise. Also, I streamed the episode through NowTv with full brightness on my tablet- I was able to see everything just fine.
Axey, I love you!!! Thank you so much for these!
I wish these were a bit shorter. I feel like Iβve searched for game of thrones and reading every tweet that shows up. thanks for the effort though.
Sansa’s not talking trash or being offensive. She’s merely pointing out political disagreements between her and Dnerys, damn it.
Sick and tired to see people making up the truth, it’s not even funny…
Thanks anyway, I guess
Netheb,
Agreed. Sansa was having a private conversation with Tyrion. They were discussing how his support for Dany would create divided loyalties in a marriage between them if they survived this situation. She wasn’t trashing Dany or her contributions to the war effort. Sansa realizes that if they win the battle and remove the White Walker threat, the question of who rules the Seven Kingdoms is still open, and the North would want its independence. In Missandei’s defense, I can see how she might take it as a insult. She’s seen Dany’s grit and loyalty to her followers.
DireWolf,
Indeed! And I’m not blaming her at all: Missandei is 100% in her role when she defends her queen. After all, she hasn’t gotten a warm welcome in the North and the situation they’re in is nerve-racking. From her perspective, Northerners must seem ungrateful; but then again, Missandei has no idea what the North/the Starks have been through.. if she had, maybe she’d better understand why Sansa and Dny’s interests clash.
