Game of Thrones: House of the Dragon!

let us all take a minute to admire Sansa's new look

Though they may very well ghost write the books for him as well at that point. But the series itself is safe at least

Unfortunately this won't be the case, George himself has confirmed that if he dies he will be taking his work with him.

Moments like the last episode make me so glad I haven't read the books yet. I felt physically sick during that final fight scene. I was rooting for Oberyn up until the very last. I was rooting for him even after he had his eyes popped, I'd love an eyeless Oberyn in the series just as long as he was still in it.

I love that the story doesn't play it safe, and I definitely find that it makes me even more attached to the characters because it makes them more human. Can't be doing with a boring show where the characters are all safe from harm. That would make me not care, because there would be no point to. There would be nothing to lose.

Kind of no longer on topic, but

Spoilers if you haven't read ADwDLet's be real here: there ARE some characters who will probably live to the end. I would place hard money that Tyrion, Arya, and Dany all live through the series. GRRM doesn't have the balls to kill them off.

I don't think that's what he's getting at in this little piece. I think he is only saying here that he doesn't want completely new works being added on without his approval or review. For the GoT TV series, I am under the impression he has given approval and review and has laid out his plans quite delicately about how it will play out, meaning if he dies then it is not akin to Sauron Strikes Back, but more like the Silmarillion - something that is his work, even if he wasn't around to see it published.

Sansa knows how to wear them.

I can understand his feelings on the matter. I hope he doesn't die before he gets to finish the series.

George R.R. Martin has spoken at length about his complicated feelings towards fanfiction. He doesn’t much like the name, and he also feels that in the age of the internet there is too much public attention on fans writing about their favorite characters. He doesn’t approve of people playing in the ASOIAF sandbox particularly, because as he puts it: “No one gets to abuse the people of Westeros but me.”

He would hate me. Although I'm surprised his name isn't on the list of authors who have requested Fanfic.net not allow stories based off his stuff.

safety first!

Not sure I care much for that particular pic of Sansa as much as the gif shown before (I think it was Freya that posted it). The picture just posted, while in the right garb, has her old "innocent" Sansa look instead of the new "confident" Sansa look. It's all in the attitude. Needs to put on that smug face, it's awesome.

safety first!

The annoying thing is, I fearfully predicted what would happen when Tyrion said "the least you could do is wear a helmet".

Bit of foreshadowing there.

Ahahaha Shai xD

Yeah? Two words. (SPOILER)Jon Snow. I bet you'd have said the same god damn thing about him before you read Dragons too. Oh, and Dany was invulnerable up until the point when Aegon appeared back on the scene. Arya has never been invulnerable, nor has Tyrion.

Haters gonna hate, show is still amazing and all awesome people agree, whaddup.

Stop smurfing reading me if you don't wanna know!

Ok, so like yes, Jon Snow got stabbed a hell of a lot. Yet, Jon Snow is a damn tough smurfer, and something tells me that particularly with the fact his parentage is very strongly alluded to (though not outright confirmed) as being that of Rhaegar and Lyana not Ned and his camp follower I doubt we have seen the last of him.

My guess is that Stannis and Melisandre will figure out Jon's true heritage and that Melisandre will do what Beric Dondarrion's Rhollorian priest did to Cat Stark in order to either save him, or bring him back if he's dead. Will be interesting to see however.

agreed with steve

also, paul

i am happy to place a 5 currency bet on all of those characters

(SPOILER)I didn't think anyone thought Jon Snuuuhhh was dead
