Jon, he'd said, but Jon was gone. It was Lord Snow who faced him now, grey eyes as hard as ice.

This was Jon to his bestfriend and he was only a Lord then. Post resurrection, what would he be like if they made him a King?

Jon's internal thoughts - Waterfall

D@nerys:- We could stay a thousand years. No one will find us.

Jon: **Humans can not live more than 100 years or something...**

Jon: **She is not the smartest, eh**

Jon: **Say something nice!!**

Jon: **Say something nice!!**

Jon: **But I feel the need to correct her**

Jon: - We'd be pretty old

Jon is not a Terrible Liar

So, I had a thought recently. You know how everyone went to King’s Landing to persuade Cersei to go north with her armies and fight the dead? 

You know how Jon managed to say the one thing that was most likely to piss Cersei off the most?

You know how it was crucial for Jon to convince Cersei to fight the army of the dead? 

You know how Jon and Sansa had an entire conversation about preventing The Night King from marching south? And Cersei from marching North?

I don’t think Jon wanted Cersei to join the alliance. I think he saw an opportunity to impress Daenerys and anger Cersei and he took it. 

There’s a lot wrong with this thought. I mean, he did look upset when Cersei left the dragonpit, but I think it could have been over how obviously angry she was. 

The facts are: Jon needs Daenery’s dragons. Jon wants Cersei to stay far away from the North. Daenerys won’t join his cause unless she thinks she can win both the Northern and Southern thrones.

In Game of Thrones, those who seek out power are the least deserving of it.

You know whose face came to my mind.

Looks like Jon is going to bend the knee to Cersei in season 8.

If undercover jon sounds crazy.....

Just remember a few things.

1) We got the scene of Jon and Sansa explaining to each other they understand the threats that are coming from the north and south better than anyone.

2) The northern lords have made it clear their allegiance can change easily. And that they are not happy about their king leaving the north to ask a Targaryan and a Lanister for help.

3) Jon's mission to Dragonstone was to get a powerful army to the north to help fight the "real" war.

4) Jon risked literally everything durring the weight hunt to ask Cersi to a sease fire. So she and Dany can turn their forces towards the real threat.

Now. Ask yourself, why?

Why after he watched a dragon die. Watched his uncle die. After he nearly died. Why would he immediately throw the plan of convincing Cersi to help out the fucking window?

Why would he leave south and sleep with a foreigner. When he knows the northern lords didn't back him in the BOTB. Due to the fact his brother and father did the EXACT same thing?

It's because Jon's ultimate goal isn't to bring the realm together. It's to gain the largest army he can to head north to fight.

Nobody believes the severity of the situation when he tells them what he has seen. He has to convince strangers and enemies to come together and fight. That isn't going to happen by asking. Or even by proving the army of the dead is real.

He got Dany to see the army of the dead. She saw the NK in person. He killed one of her children. At this point she should be all in. But she is not. So Jon solidifies her support by bending the knee.

Then he does this.....

Durring the dragonpit meeting he announced to everyone he is pledged to the Targaryan cause. He crossed Cersi to the point where she wants to murder him. (Just like Sansa warned) Jon had to have known Cersi was not going to be a reliable ally no matter what she said. But his actions durring the dragon pit meeting got Dany and her dragons on board. And he got Cersi seeing red. She's determined to use not only the Lanister army to destroy Jon and his family. But the golden company as well.

Basically.....

Jon doesn't care about alliances. Truces. Titles. Or any of that crap. He cares about defeating the dead. That is his goal. Nothing else. He knows he might die in the process. But he has already died and had come back. He knows he is here for a reason. I don't think he cares about the repercussions of his actions at this point.

Calling him undercover Jon might be a little misleading. I would rather call him calculated. Or determined.

He left needing an army. And now he has the entire kingdom looking north. Towards the real threat. Mission accomplished.
