Listen . . . .

If Arya hadn't died from the fire or the falling debris, then she sure would die from that toxic dust fumes.

Like damn. Lung cancer

Jaime survived the Battle for Kingslanding. He survived impossible odds only by the grace of the Gods. Now he has a far more painful task ahead of him; living in an aftermath where fire and blood sits on the throne and accepting the fact that the woman he loves would rather swallow glass than grant him forgiveness or allow him to be a father to the bastard cub growing inside her...

tale as old as time

y’all wanna talk about how jaime is still alive for a minute?

we know jb is based on beauty and the beast. (i personally have always assumed George would lean away from the disney version in writing this. there are no talking housewares lol)

i was just thinking about how literal he is about it at some points though? and also how this could point to a death fakeout with an ending Nik actually does like:

Spoiled “prince”

Cursed with disfigurement (in this case it’s interesting that his “curse” happens near the time he meets Brienne/beauty , not Cersei/evil witch)

She literally holds him captive

Brienne hates roses

He takes care of her with his wealth

all that good 💗growing to love each other💗 content

in the end, the Beauty has to leave and they part miserable and misunderstood, and while they are apart:

he fights (Euron = Gaston? lmao) for his life, (all but) DIES and she returns, his curse lifts, he’s fine, they make up

HEA 🎉

This all lines up with the Jaime = AA theory.

It has been posited that he may grow his hand back (see: his dreams in the books, and possibly foreshadowed during TBTWP “I don’t want things growing on me”)

i also have a lot of thoughts about how this season actually did set up 8x06, mostly about TBTWP scene and how their lines sound SO hinty to me

Nik and the “he saved the world” thing

Nik was paid for 8x06

Nik saying “there’s a lot of fire in Jaime’s story” in an interview i will track down

Nik’s mysterious silence for two weeks now

they’re still idiot writers but i think things might make more sense after the Big Surprise Ending 🙄

i know this all sounds p wack but it’s keeping me alive and i think it makes sense?????? i don’t expect d&d to give us anything close to the real ending but these seem like major things to not do in light of how vital Jaime is to the plot if the AA theory is true
