GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

What? Until the incest thing is actually proven, Cersei's children have a stronger claim to the throne than Stannis does. The succession is of significant importance.

What?

That would have meant fuck all if Stannis had won at Blackwater Bay.

There are no "legitimate Baratheons" left. If Tommen were to die, would the the throne would then go to Kevan Lannister or Jamie?

So what? I never said that having the stronger claim made you invincible, but the strength of your claim often has a lot to do with the size of the army you can raise to support/defend that claim.

The Tyrells would be in the strongest position to take the throne through Margaery and the fact that they probably have the most intact army left in central Westeros, and they could secure the support of another great house (like say, the Martells) by marrying Margaery to their heir.

Here is what is going to happen with Jon.

Up north, what do you do with the dead? You burn them before they zombify. They are going to get a quick makeshift pyre going for him and throw his body on the bbq. Between him being 50% Targaryen and the Melisandre being conveniently present, Jon will rise from the ashes, un-burnt. The men of the Night's Watch will shit their pants and in the confusion, Jon and his loyal man (Edison Tollette) in the Nightswatch bolt out of there on horses to meet up with Tormund and the Wildlings.

jon will be rezzed as Joan, a transgender new womyn who defies conventional westeros standards of gender and beauty. she will stop the white walkers by explaining cisgender discrimination and the patriarchy privilege they have supported for thousands of years, and all the dragons will naturally support her since she is in tune with nature. In the end women and transgenders will reform the world to be a communal egalitarian society with no weapons, nobility, wealth, or war.

the show will be subtitled Game of Traps for season 6

She-Jon will have Lady Stoneheart's role condensed into her storyline. Melisdandre will breath life back into him and say "In the name of the Lord of Light, arise Jon Snow." and She-Jon will reply "Call me Catelyn." /hairtoss

damn dp

My joke about the Watch sitting around eating Ghost burgers while watching Jon burn to ashes should be enough to haunt you all for 10 months without the need for the she-Jon theory.

Wrong. Little Finger would scoop that shit up somehow.

Not unless he picks up some kind of closer connection to the Throne between now and Tommen's death he won't.

I didn't think that the ruler could be a woman in Westeros regardless of their standing in the line of succession. I thought it was always the next closest male.

The male line of House Baratheon is extinct when Stannis dies, unless they learn about, find, and crown Gendry. Otherwise all the normal rules go out the window and whoever has the combination of claim + support ends up with the Throne, and a marriage to the former queen + the support of House Tyrell and another great house would be a hard combo to beat.

Myrcella dying is a good way to force Doran to support Daenerys though.

The fucked up think is that if Stannis would have been patient he might have gotten the throne be default when everyone else died off. All it would have taken would have been Roberts 3 "children" dying off and he would have been next in line anyways lol.

Nobody would have bent the knee to Stannis even if the Robert's "children" were all dead.

stannis is dead, even all the "stannis is still alive " theories have him dying not long after that scene, they wouldnt contract the actor for another season just to be killed off when he was already killed at the end of the previous season. stannis has no point in being alive. its not like he has somebody or something to live for, not even a little border collie named gustav.
After burning through 2 major armed forces because he sucks, even the bank of braavos will tell him to fuck off while also saying, "gimme my money bitch!"

I agree only if the crew know that Myrcella dies. The most likely reaction from Jamie would be to cry out for help and hope Trystane knows enough about poison to help her, but if he kept it quiet and kept her locked away he could conceivably get to KL without them knowing.

Dude, it's a journey of a couple weeks. Myrcella would be rotting to pieces by the time they got to King's Landing, someone would smell her at the very least.

Those sorts of things wouldn't bother me. I don't really wonder all that much about any of the three. I'm not certain about them but I don't foresee any sort of strong anticipation as to any of their fates either. Jon being gone for good would be the biggest gripe, just from a wasted potential standpoint.

Many did prior to their getting nuked in Blackwater Bay.
