HUGENORMOUS SPOILER WARNING FOR GAME OF THRONES yes i know it’s been out for years but this part is too significant to not have a warning

i’m rewatching GOT and i just got to the season 4 finale when Daenerys had to chain up Viserion and Rhaegal after Drogon k*lls a child

and it really hit me in that moment how much deeper this goes than just chaining up her children.

moments before this scene, when the man comes to her with his dead child, she is introduced with all her titles, the breaker of chains included.

Dany, seeing this one man’s pain, makes the choice to do the very thing she fought so hard to end to her own children, because she cares so deeply for the people that she freed. she has no desire to watch them be hurt because ultimately, dragons are wild animals.

of course it hurts her heart to do this to her dragons, her children, the beings that have been with her since she lost her husband. you can see how much she hates this choice, and you also know she has to make it for her kingdom. she is the mother of dragons but she is also queen of her people, and she understands grief.

Dany actively choosing to chain her dragons up in the catacombs because of one child is true sacrifice.

this whole scene honestly just makes the season 8 finale feel even more ridiculous and out of character. yes i get the whole “she has the Targaryen madness!” bit and i implore you to look past the bad writing and know in your heart that season 8 Dany does not speak for season 4 Dany.

hey so can we talk about this scene for just a moment

Brienne is forced to fight a starving bear and to me it’s very much a symbol of the men who would r**e her and make her nothing more than a tool of patriarchal power and consumption (and, you know, also literally a starving bear)

Jaime, already SEVERAL MILES away from Harrenhal forces his CAPTORS to ride back because he knows she’s in danger, just to LAUNCH himself into the ring

and then he FORCES Brienne to get behind him because he can’t let her be hurt, sure maybe he’s thinking for himself a bit since she’s the one who was charged to bring him back to King’s Landing and sure, he may see some of Cersei’s aggression and prowess in her as well as her vulnerability as a noblewoman

BUT THEN THEY PULL EACH OTHER OUT OF THE RING. JAIME HELPS HER ESCAPE FIRST AND THEN BRIENNE FORCES THE BANNERMEN TO HELP HER SAVE JAIME. AND YOU CANNOT TELL ME THAT THEY DONT ALREADY LOVE EACH OTHER HERE AND THEY JUST HAVENT REALIZED IT YET.

look at how she looks at him (Nik and Gwen KILL IT in this scene it’s perfect). she’s shocked. she thought she was literally about to die and this man who has done nothing but make fun of her up until she’s about to be r***d decides she needs to live and he’s the one who has to keep her alive. fuck fuck fuck i love them so much

see the great thing about game of thrones is that when it was good

and believe me, it was fucking good in many points and for a long time

it was absolutely stellar.

a lot of what carried this show was the cast and crew knowing and loving these characters. a lot of directing for television involves trusting your actors to know their characters, because television directing is different from film directing. usually the directors change out between episodes but game of thrones was different. most of the time, the directors were also the writers and they stayed on. they also knew and loved these characters.

i mean, this was the show that had fans screaming for a character to die for five seasons and when his ass was unceremoniously poisoned

on screen

at his own wedding

not a pinch of sympathy to be found.

a show that can make you feel that level of vitriol for one character that him dying made viewers feel like they'd won the lottery is good character writing.

that's why season eight was such a betrayal and a let down. unfortunately, it seems the directors got bored. but instead of handing it off, they held on. and spoiled it.
