#Jonsa ❤️ A Tribute

House of the Dragon anticipation took me back a decade ago when Game of Thrones rule the world of television. I was a fan but not enough to call myself an expect or an avid really. Season 1 will always be my favorite but Season 6 has my heart. I have always belonged to the house of stark and the wolves of the north. I always knew and expected their family to be the last ones standing. Never cared for any love story or ship due to the fact it seems all are political maneuvers, as it should be. Until S6 came, Jon and Sansa reunited. I was shocked by the moment. It was emotional and poetry in motion and it was miles better than other reunions , hands down even if their history just shouts the opposite. Kudos to Kit and Sophie. Their chemistry was magic on screen, unexpectedly. Perhaps, that's why a fandom was born. S6 for me was the last season that has great writing, the other last 2 it seems was rushed. Im fine with the ending but it was rushed. Jonsa, as we call it made sense if it happened though.

Jon was about to give up fighting until Sansa returned.

She made him smile a couple of times.

They argue like an old married couple.

They challenge each other.

They were equals.

Jon wanted Sansa's approval. Always looks for it to trust him and believe in him.

Say the word Sansa they say and Jon appears 🤣

Sansa is the safest with him.

Yeah, complicated relationship. A lot hates Sansa for telling the truth about Jons real parents but Sansa , like Jon chose drastic measures to save and will always choose their family & the north always.

Their sibling relationship was great but it was at times borderline overprotective, yeah he should be as a brother and cousin but somehow kinda romantic and full of undertones. Maybe it was the writing, idk.

The forehead kiss shouldnt have been like that and Jon shouldn't have looked at Sansa's lips or the script shouldn't have that extra seconds each and every time they stare, look and bicker with each other. Again, maybe its just Kits and Sophies acting skills.

In the end, i do believe not only Jon chose his family but he chose and fulfilled his promise to Sansa to protect her. He trusts her that much to be the Queen in the North.

Its 2024. Nothing will change my mind.

Their love and relationship was intriguing, fascinating and whatever happened in the series and books, Jonsa will always be my ship. The way their characters made us feel...there was something more.

Both are alive. Until they reunite again then anything is possible.

got my parents to watch GoT and when they got to S6 I was nervously *and silently* waiting for comments about any tension between Jon and Sansa. When they finally got to Jon's parentage reveal, the first thing my mom said was "So Jon can marry Sansa right? That makes sense." AND LEMME TELL YOU WHEN I SAY I DIED I---

Dark!Dany Is Coming

After "The Long Night" I've seen a lot of people worried that Dark!Dany doesn't seem as likely anymore, since D*ny was portrayed too sympathetically in the episode.  Though I'd agree that she was as sympathetic as she's been in a long time, several things in this episode set up a possible Dark!Dany reveal.  Here's the three main pieces of Dark!Dany foreshadowing I've found in the episode:

1. Accidental Dance

This is by far the most obvious piece of foreshadowing in the episode.  D*ny and Jon slamming into each other atop Rhaegal and Viserion, in what amounts to a minor accidental Dance of Dragons, can't mean good things are coming as far as their relationship goes.  Even if you don't see this as D&D's intentional foreshadowing that this season is leading to a second Dance, their lack of coordination suggests they're not as in love as we're meant to believe.  They were completely unable to function as a team, and it made them irrelevant to the fight against the Night King.  If they were really the Disney worthy romance some in fandom believe them to be, wouldn't we have gotten a grand scene where they finally pull it together and learn to work as a team?

This is a theme that was carried throughout the entire episode.  D*ny abandons the plan cause she can't stand to see the Dothraki slaughtered while Jon couldn't care less, D*ny desides to focus on burning wights but Jon is still focused on Bran's safety, etc.  They were completely out of sync this entire episode.  D*ny chooses her people, and Jon chooses his family.  Though D*ny's misfortunates this episode may make the general audience more sypathetic towards her, evidently Jon has far greater concerns than the woes of the Dragon Queen.  

2. Tyrion's Divided Loyalty

Putting aside my significant issues with Sansa's characterization during her scenes in the crypts, I think her and Tyrion's conversation is an important reminder of the rift between her and D*ny.  Despite the fact that the Army of the Dead is attacking Winterfell, Sansa still mentions her distrust of D*ny to Tyrion. This proves that Northern Independance isn't an afterthought, and the audience shouldn't treat it as such.  

This conversation also shows that any pettiness between D*ny and Sansa was unintentional, and that their rivalry wasn't meant to be superficial plot filler that killed time in the first couple episodes.  Their issues are legitimate political problems that won't be solved as easily as defeating the White Walkers apparently was.

3. The Death of Jorah

This entire sequence is devastating for D*enerys.  First, she is swarmed by wights, and while I'm usually unimpressed by Emilia Clarke's acting, she does an excellant job of conveying terror in this scene.  Next, she's abandoned by Drogon.  So much of her self-worth is tied to the dragons, and I can't imagine how painful it must be for her to be abandoned by them, especially Drogon. Lastly, she's there to witness the death of Jorah.

Though Book!Jorah is manipulative, abusive, and generally terrible, Show!Jorah has mostly been a loyal and faithful advisor to D*ny.  Most of all, he's been her moral compass.  Even as recent as 8x02, Jorah counsels D*ny to reach out to Sansa, rather than act in anger.  The two biggest constants in Show!D*ny's life have been Jorah and the dragons.  Now that Rhaegal is bonded to Jon, Viserion is dead, Drogon has abandoned her (even if he did come back, it was only after the danger was gone), and Jorah is gone, it seems like the show could be setting up a mental break for D*ny.

Overall, I don't think this episode was any reason to start doubting Jonsa and Dark!Dany theories, in fact it’s actually strengthened my confidence in them.
