The possibility of King Gendry is getting more and more likely, imho. I'm not 100% sure of it yet, but the pieces are starting to fall into place.

It'll be interesting to see the army she raises for king landing. Based on their conversations, the north, Vale, dorne and most likely the storm lands are on her side. I'd assume the river lands, reach, and Yaras part of the iron islands are on her side too. So basically all of Westeros is against her.
I think in everyone's rush to defend Danerys they're forgetting what we have right now: two women that are willing to burn King's Landing to the ground just so they can rule over the ashes. This isn't the same Danerys that conquered Slaver's Bay while keeping innocent casualties to a minimum; this is a Danerys that will kill every single person in King's Landing if she has to in order to remove Cersei from the Iron Throne. What's worse is it's like finding out that she doesn't have a legitimate claim to the throne has flipped a switch in her. Suddenly she's a paranoid woman that trusts very few people.

She's a Targaryen. Her Dad killed their Grandpa and uncle, and their Dad went to war because her brother raped and abducted their aunt. The entire North has no reason to love Targaryens, even ones that helped them.
I mean Jon did lead well enough to get murdered already.
Honestly I hope it's someone besides Dany and Jon that ends up on the throne becausethey both annoy me
Why would Dani and the fleet get to Kings Landing before her army and Jon had time to march down from the North. It makes no sense, send the army down, and then wait a week, and then sail down with the fleet so they all get to Kings Landing at the same time. Right now, she is outnumbered, and will be until the rest of her army marches to her. No good military mind would ever allow that to happen.
I think after losing one fleet already, I'd skip the sailing part.
That bit with Bronn was stupid. He just shows up, makes threats, and leaves? I don’t know what I expected it to be but that was disappointing.

only very recently. Opinions change hard. I'm just saying that the "Mad Taragryen" stereotype is hard to shake, because it was earned many times over in Westerosi history.
Tywin and Robb were the only good military minds i guess.

especially if you're going to make demands. You want a show of force.
Why exactly are we acting like "shes a targaryen" means anything? Jon is a targaryen. There were good targaryens and bad ones. And that goes for most houses.

No, madness is far more prevalent for the Targaryens.
"Every time a Targaryen is born the gods flip a coin"
300 years of mostly inbreeding will do that. Insanity is strongly associated with their house.

Jorah pretty strongly insisted on going, and she was already in love with Jon. So she had two reasons to go north of the wall, both of which were people she loved. She doesn't love the northerners. The north doesn't trust her, and there have been plenty of seeds planted along the way to suggest that their mistrust will ultimately be sage.
Does anyone else feel a little cheated that we didn’t get to see Sansa and Arya’s reaction to Jon’s revelation?
And also **** Sansa for immediately breaking her promise.
And also **** Sansa for immediately breaking her promise.
And has just lost the two people she trusted more than anyone. She's more alone than she's been in a long, long time.
