Remember back in July & August 2017 when Jon & Daenerys finally met & actually fell in love? & everyone was happy anticipating a marriage & boat baby, if not ruling Westeros together? Those were good times. Well they were nice while they lasted.
Oh anon, those were the days, weren’t they? But! We really should’ve known better!
After all, Jon and Daenerys had nothing in common!

There was no reason to ever think they might marry…
There was no reason to think they might have children!
And it’s not like HBO advertised or promoted the pairing with misleading ‘Dragon and the Wolf’ sigils…
We were given no reason to believe Jon and Daenerys were the union of ice and fire. There was barely any emphasis put on their pairing at all!
Lastly? It’s not like we had the writers personally assuring us that Dany wasn’t insane or sadistic like her father.
