Dunk and Eggs EditionPrevious >>217732152
Episode's meme pic of the week.
>>217735210KISSES!KISSES FROM DUNK!
>>217735251The horse shitting was kind of tame. The eye popping out was more rough I'd say.
Is this from the same current tournament?
>I'm putting together a team...
>>217735301Are you retarded?
>>217735301no, many years prior
>>217735210Loved this last episode.
Anyone notice Egg was doing the assumption song?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TywmpMQYojs
You don't hurt women, remember that
>>217735301No, it's a fucking flashback
Can a lorefag clear something up for me? You know how the Fossaway guy went on that little diatribe about the Targaryens when he and Dunk were drinking? Is that why people were generally cool with a Baratheon taking the throne? What exactly is the connection between the Targaryens and Baratheons? Were the Baratheons Andals that just allied with Aegon early in the conquest?
>>217735402This. You let your dragon eat them. t. Aegon III
Okay I've just read all novellas for the first time. Don't you guys think that the second novella is kinda even more smaller scaled than this and not much interesting really happens? I wonder how they'll hype up season 2.
>>217735258>folk tales: how the fuck do they evolve and play into culture?
>>217735301Anons, i never read the novellas, can i assume he's gonna be one of Dunk's trial of the 7 teammate? Maybe alongside laughing storm antler guy and young apple tree dude.
>>217735133A good chunk of Europe is like that. The coat of arms of Moravia has had a crowned eagle for like 700 years now, even though Moravia itself has been part of Bohemia since the early 11th century. The historical Czech coat of arms incorporates three crowned animals: crowned lions representing the dominant Bohemia, a checkered crowned eagle representing Moravia, and a black crowned eagle representing Silesia.
>>217735459>Don't you guys think that the second novella is kinda even more smaller scaledThat's what makes it good.
>>217735210Any webm requests?
Is dunk really that stupid or drunk? He would have been lucky to survive with his life without egg.
Is the mad king Aerys II, Egg's son?
>>217735506Dunk kicking the shit outta that Targaryen faggot.
>>217735459Most bookfags said they liked the second one the best
>>217735210>"Would you like to hear your fortune anon?"
>>217735466As an European, the idea that, for example, the tale of Hercules killing the Nemean Lion would be punishable because the ruling house has a lion in their sigil is genuinely insane.
>>217735444Aegon V (our Egg) had a daughter named Rhaella Targaryen. He married her to the son of Lyonel Baratheon (Dunk's bro in the show). Together they had a son who was the dad of Robert Baratheon.So Robert had Targaryen blood, which he used to make a claim on the throne. But realistically he won it by conquest. He had a lot of support because Aerys II Targaryen was fucking crazy and made enemies of many lords, including the Starks of Winterfell and their allies.
>>217735521Worse, he is a simp
>>217735559Is she wearing a necklace like Melisandre's?
So what's so offensive about this play?
>>217735576No, we need to be better as men
>>217735466>>217735565It's because for some reason at least 1 targ every generation is a retard who thinks Westeros is ancient china and he can do whatever as a member of the diving bloodline and shiet.
>>217735444baratheons had recent targ blood like the other anon said but also the original baratheon was aegon the conqueror's bastard brother.
>>217735588His fursona is a dragon.
>>217735459>muh targs, muh massive stakesno fuck off the best thing about dunk and egg is low stakes just a hedge knight and his squire kicking around having adventures
>>217735565To be fair... they take the furfaggotry roleplay very seriously in Westeros and like 80% of Euro noble houses used only either lions or eagles
>>217735588He thinks the dragon stands for the Targaryens
>>217735251
>>217735588What the fuck is his problem? Why is he a massive cunt?
>>217735459Would imagine they'll probably make up/further adapt stuff which happens off-screen in the books (i.e. between the end of The Hedge Knight and The Sworn Sword) and probably spend a lot of time on Blackfyre rebellion.
>>217735301No it's a flashforward.
d-do you like g-goose eggs a-anon?
PRINCE BAELOR WAS THE FIRSTBORNPRINCE MAEKAR SPRANG OUT LASTDAEMON WAS THE BASTARD SO THEY KICKED HIS BASTARD...GRASS IS GREEN AS SUMMERGREEN GRASS I ADOREBUT GRASS IS RED ALL OVER WHEN YOU KILL A REBEL...HORSES DIE IN BATTLETHIS BATTLE WAS THE FRONTBLACKFYRE'S NOT A TRUEBORN HE CAME FROM THE WRONG...COUNTRY WAS IN PERILTHE ANVIL WAS A ROCKTHE HAMMER SMASHED THE BASTARD WITH HIS GIANT VEINY...HOST OF DORNISH SPEARMEN
>>217735572>>217735444The Targaryen-Baratheon connection is much older than that, going back to Orys Baratheon, who is generally understood to have been a half-brother of Aegon the Conqueror. So the Baratheons are both intermarried with Targs, and they are their direct relatives except without the incest.
>>217735656SHUT UP OMLETTE
>>217735633You would also be misunderstood if you were a glorious dragon trapped in the body of a human
>>217735633He was born on the wrong side of the coin.
>>217735559bloodraven confirmed tranny
>>217735588>>217735633If your family had the ability to ride dragons, but now they’re extinct, and you’ll never ride one, wouldn’t you also be pissed
>>217735534
>>217735658its funny how the valerion and targ connection is put in the forefront during the dance even though the baratheons are closer to the targs
>>217735476But this isnt a personal coat of arms is it?
>>217735559Ghost of High Heart confirmed?
>>217735658Where do Baratheon magic genes that result in every child born with black hair and blue eyes even come from? From the Durrandon line or from the whore that Aegon's dad fucked?
>>217735572>>217735658Why is it such a big deal that Joff is blonde then? His mom is super blonde and his dad is half targ
>>217735506Joust double KO
>>217735565Then again dragons aren't just regular animals like lions.
Imagine if tanselle was your mother or sister, would you just watch?
>>217735658By that logic a ton of houses would have a similar claim. Especially the Velaryions and Martells.You would have to discredit Aegon I's entire 200-year long line to make a claim based on his bastard brother.
>>217735588Actually, what is that play about? Some scene from House of the Dragon arc?
>>217735720When was there double KO?
>>217735588She said the B word
>>217735572Gotcha.>>217735598So I know the Baratheons are always calling themselves the Storm Lords and there’s that story about Bran the Builder helping to build Storm’s End, but was it already the Baratheon family calling the shots in the Stormlands before Aegon ever arrived?
>>217735210Wow
>spits
>>217735588Unironically people were more media literate then and the symbolism of a dragon being killed especially after the small riot earlier in the day? Definitely not a good idea
>>217735506The exchange about Alice.
>>217735736The first joust right after they have their bacon and egg sandwiches
>>217735444>>217735572 Third anon here, but also remember that original OG Aegon suddenly and violently and overwhelmingly invaded westeros like 200 years before this show. The dragons were basically flying nuclear weapons because there was literally no answer for them for quite a long time and the fact that they had those dragons up to a certain point made it so they were the de facto rulers but by the point of this show the dragons have been dead for like 40 years? So over the course of that time and up until Robert's rebellion they wane in actual power over the continent because the dragons (their wmds) are gone while simultaneously getting more inbred and less and less effective as rulers as time goes on. Before the mad king, most other variations of his line that had similar issues would have had the dragons to back up their behavior 1 way or another, he did not. I mean don't look up what happens to egg in the show, the targaryens are crazy for a reason. Then as well, Roberts rebellion was a course of very lucky and unfortunate events that ended up encouraging a Tywin and the Lannisters to make the coup overwhelming and inflict the final knife in the back, so to speak. But like I said no one would have had the ability to do any of that for the reasoning to do any of that if he had not been bad shit crazy and he had had any dragons.
>>217735711>From the Durrandon lineProbably them, but then again Orys himself was already dark so>>217735716Because the Baratheon features always win out, which is what Ned figures out in the big book. And Robert isn't quite half Targ, it's more distant than that.
>>217735506The song about killing blackfyre fucking shits
>>217735506The riot.
>>217735716It isn't really. Ned was a dumbass.
>>217735734Serwyn of the Mirror Shield, a legendary figure who served the Kings of the Reach.
>>217735726Probably? That's a common feature of living under an extrajudicial regime
>>217735758Overdoing it
>>217735459It's actually more expensive to film because of the dry environment, lol.
>>217735758What disease causes constant spitting?
>>217735565It’s all in the context. Popes and kings have outlawed plays that they took to have political messages. Robin Hood was specifically rewritten *by* the Monarchy to include King Richard because the original play was basically about a poacher feeding the poor who cared fuck-all about who the king was.
>>217735841Productive cough. Hes full of phlegm
>>217735841being forced to do a 9-5 in a world with dragons and knights
>>217735841>>217735758He is all slimed up. Probably an infection. That's why he makes that noise and then spits.
>>217735711Given how strong it is it may legitimately be that the Baratheons through the Durrandons descend from Durran's supernatural waifu-wife.
STANNIS STANNIS STANNIS
I don't get it, are the targs actually ayys or was he just saying that for a laugh?
>>217735565Which is the point of Aerion. It is a reaction that is both cruel and stupid. It is especially arrogant and retarded by him in the show given barely any time has passed since he triggered a riot.
>>217735565Anon it's a dynasty of incestuous dragon fuckers, they LOVE their dragons, if they could they would probably have babies with them instead of with each other.
>>217735572>>217735598>>217735658>>217735695>>217735786Thanks, guys!
You don't just go to China and start doing plays where you kill Winnie the Pooh. Simple as.
>>217735720>>217735783
>>217735902Alien as in foreign.
-ACK
>>217735506where egg and dunk are sitting after the first jousting looking down on the field and talking about mundane stuffthanks webm anon
>>217735902Alien just means foreigner anon. In that case the Targs are straight up foreigners from some magical eastern land who showed up to the continent and conquered everyone with dragons.
>>217735928Its really not that stupid. Although he did react to it in a stupid heavy handed way
>>217735938Now doSer S T O K E W O R T HSTOKEWORTHGetting unchivalrously knocked by that rogue Ashford while he is still unready for a second pass.
The acting and cinematography this last episode were both awful, far worse than the 2 eps before.>first episode directed by a womanoh
>>217735938Based
>>217735565As an European, the idea that there are adult human beings running around and laboring under the delusion that, for example, the tale of Hercules killing the Nemean Lion would be static over time and never be reconfigured to fit the political needs of the day is genuinely insane.
>>217735745It’s a bit more complicated than that. The Stormlands used to be ruled by house Durrandon, who were the original storm kings. After Aegon’s invasion, Aegon’s half brother and the first Hand of the King named Orys Baratheon married the Durrandon heir Argella and took on the old Durrandon coat of arms, creating the new stormlord dynasty. The Baratheons therefore descend from both the Targs and the old Storm Kings.
>>217735304>Oak and iron, guard me well…
>>217735934This but unironically
This show is great. It's making me forget that GOT/HOTD are awful
Based blacksmith join the good fight next week.
>>217735964Magical ultra-imperialist eastern lands, mind you. Valyria was both magically advanced and extremely prolific in atrocities, even by Westerosi standards.
>FUCKING 3 CLASH JOUSTS!!! >what the fuck, WHAT THE FUCK, thats targs, targs did that. Only a targ could think of that, a targ or a braavosi>An Andal could never do that to you, You know. An Andal who actually cares about the 7 kingdoms, would never do that to you. An Iron Islander wouldnt do that to you, its insidious. Iron Islanders arent even sinister enough, you know. They dont have that evil scheming to come up with something like that.
>>217735979it's because they've run out of content and are trying to stretch a short story into 6 episodes so you have all of this cringe unnatural dialogue that Martin never wrote
>>217736031They sure did love fucking other species.
>>217735938How the fuck is this entertainment? Massive waste of resources and potentially men.
>>217735786Isn't the theory that Egg killed everyone at Sumemrhall trying to bring dragons back so the nobles would stop being troublesome over his peasantry reforms
>>217736014>wearing a skirt
>>217735808Isn’t also part of Florian the Fool’s story?
>>217735767
Anons i never read the novellas, but based on the show i imagine the guys who show up to help Dunk would be:>Antler head laughing storm guy>young Apple tree dude>Blacksmith (because trailer screenshot)>one eyed madman guy>uh.. someone who hates Targs>etc.
>>217735210>"Hey, Duncan, I want to bet on Lord Ashford's son, so you can please win the tourney?"Why the fuck did he bother asking him? This is the opposite of jobbing.
best episode yet and only horse did a shitlesson in there mayhaps
>>217736074At times of peace how else would you show how brave and what good horsemanship you have in a martial society ?
>>217736097He really could have just been a bit sly about it instead.
>>217735934Feudal Europe was nothing like modern China, though. The concept of a centralised state censorship is a post-feudal invention. Hell, when it comes to Europe, the very idea that the royalty has an absolute say over the politics and culture in their land is mostly an 18th century development.
>>217735459>>217735547>the second novella is kinda even more smaller scaled than this and not much interesting really happens? It's great because it shows the squabbles of minor nobles and how the smallfolk get pushed around. Dunk once again has to deal with the morals of the situation. Both sides make good sounding points, but also commit despicable acts. The guy Dunk decided to fight for turns out to have committed some serious crimes in the past which he got punished for. The ending is also great because against all expectations its ends with the two sides marrying each other to solve the dispute. And Dunk gets shafted when his love interest marries some old fuck for political reasons.It might be the best thing the fatman has ever written.Also helps that it has a hot femdom lady who makes out with Dunk. She later becomes the Lady Lannister and presumably keeps fucking Dunk on the side.
>>217736081What were his reforms?
>>217736111Show jumping?
>>217736096>>BlacksmithCommoners cant fight with nobles you lunatic
>>217735799
>>217735986Thanks, fren. That makes a lot more sense now.
>>217736129I don't think they ever explained them but he was a champion of the small folk so it would likely be greater rights for them, less for the nobility.
>>217735938
>bollywood edit egg revealhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SOxutBMCOUc
>>217736129Free range raping for every knight above 180cm.
>>217736127You might be right but thats still very different from a member of the royal house seeing a play with overt anti royal house symbolism in it
>>217735468So you never read the novellas but spoiled yourself the main plot points? What's up with that? Why then not read the graphic novel at least? It only takes like 30 minutes
>>217736128imagine being some chick's 5th husband in feudal times, that pussy was beyond haunted
>>217736128>it has a hot femdomThey will make her black or brown
>>217735800
>>217735938Love this bald goober.He'll be allowed to live and take the black after the Chadfyre restoration.
Need a time travel episode so Summerhall doesn't happen
>>217735525No, grandson
>>217736053when they tell you to chill but you have to drop another truth bomb
>>217736192Who is that girl that called dunk stupid?
>>217736097he didn't want dunk to win, he wanted dunk to challenge Ashford's sonthe tournament is arranged so that one at a time challengers come to the field, and they ride up to one of the champions, (the 5 guys with the tents sitting next to the field) and with their lance they knock on one of their shields to challenge that champion to a joust.dunk could challenge any of the champions, but if hedge knight challenges the local favorite the betting odds on that would be very very good if you *knew* the local favorite would take a dive.
>>217735967Do you have timestamp when this happens?
>>217735979>>217736164still better than anything in hotd
>>217736074It's training, it's important to remember that Tournaments weren't originally just so "controlled" before it being just jousts and shit tourneys during the golden age of tourneys were strsight up mock battles where people died way more. William Marshall, who is definitely an inspiration for Dunk, participated in many of these mock battles alongside a lot of famour royals.Anyway, basically it was training, because everyone knew and assumed there would be a next war even if it wouldn't be as high of intensity as the last.
>>217736138Well, unless you're Dunc :)
>>217736192Those are some real sports fans.
>>217736159You half-assed this one, brother.
>>217736053YOUR KINGDOMSMY CHOICEFOREVER
The prophecy will make Aegon think he has to burn himself as 'the egg' has he's been called so for so long, similar to Dany at the end of the first book/season. He will go out like the brother he hated and tried to avoid comparison to so many times...
>>217736138Idk, i assumed maybe he was disguised like Egg was
>>217736128I actually hate the sworn sword because how the absence of Osgreys around 300 AC implies that Eustace and Rohanne never had any children.
>>217736129Guaranteed anal fingering for every man
>>217736229thats not a high barthough Aemond claiming Vhagar still fucks
>>217736211lord ashford's daughter, the tourney is to celebrate her birthday
>>217736211Daughter of the local Lord (Ashford) who is running the tourney.
>>217736129Some minor protections to prevent lords fucking your wives. That sort of thing. Doesn't matter, Tywin Lannister rolled them all back anyway.
>>217736138Just lie about being knighted by a dying hedgeknight, easy peasy.
>>217736191She is a red-head in the book, so yeah definitely some kind of brown
>>217736269>Tywin Lannister rolled them all back anyway.based
>>217736192>Average Liverpool FC match in the 80s
>>217736250>anal fingeringThey call it alicing.

>>217736192>[horse neighing]For Tyrek
>>217736248This was rather obviously going to happen, mate.>>217736128>femdomThat woman was not into femdom.
Why was this retard not wearing any riding gloves?
>>217735565Are you saying that European countries never took ancient and sometimes forgotten history and stories and recontextualised depending on the political paradigm?
>>217736309too kool for skool
>>217736309He's literally insane
>>217735954>where egg and dunk are sitting after the first jousting looking down on the field and talking about mundane stuffHad to really shrink it down, hope its gopd enpugh
>>217736298Eustace was built like a mustachioed bull.The man fucked.
>>217736309A dragon is chafe resistant
Why will Dunc be richer than a Lannister? Doesn't he become a kingsguard? Is it meant to be something symbolic?
>>217735716>>217735806it's not just the hair and eye color, it's the fact they also don't resemble him in build or personality in a single way. Ned realizes Gendry is Robert's son because he's stubborn/insane enough to refuse to sell his helmet to the hand of the king. People who bring up Ned's kids don't mention how Robb is built like Ned despite tully hair>>217736053>now, now, drink this milk of the poppy and go to sleep
>>217736231>>217736276Dont like you casting aspersions on are Dunks honour
FLY LITTLE DRAGON FLYYYYY
>>217735576No, he did the right thing.
>>217736309The dragon does not concern himself with protection for his human form's claws
>>217736345Rich in love and happiness. Things money cannot buy
>>217736335You're doing great work anon.
>>217736159Neat except egg is way too tall
>>217736248It could just be that they are politically irrelevant. Even if they did not have children it could also have been some distant cousin inherited being head of the Osgreys.
>>217736345Egg whores him to rich ladies across the realm
There really should be a subsect of Targs, or related houses, still worshipping their Valyrian gods.
>>217736350Oh no, this 12 year old boy has a different personality than his father! Anyway...
>>217736350It is still pretty shaky. Like, I don't look like my dad but he still is my dad
>>217736351He does a fine enough job of that himself by going around killing crown princes and raping smallfolk and nobles alike.
>>217736345See >>217736128He is gonna have the heart of the Lady Lannister. Unlike Lord Lannister. Which makes him richer... kinda... I guess. So yeah symbolically.
>>217736345I don't think that part was supposed to be True.
>>217736345we have no idea what takes place between him after the tournament and him becoming a kingsguard
“They’re incestuous aliens, Duncan. Blood magickers and tyrants who’ve burned our lands, enslaved our people, and dragged us into their wars without a mote of respect for our history or our customs. Every pale-haired brat they’ve saddled on us has been madder than the last, god knows how. The only thing a Targaryen can do for this realm is finish on his wife’s tits.”Uh hello based department
>>217735702I was gonna protest this random character, but here you reminded me that the ghost exists and could well be her.
>>217736378I feel that Tywin's cousins in the Coldmoat would have been mentioned.
>>217736409The Ghost of High Heart is a dwarf and mostly likely a Child of the Forest.
>>217736406love my Apple Fuentes
>>217736164This sorta meme has been going on with GoT stuffhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y6sdfZXSHF4Wouldn't be surprised if it gets done for egg reveal as well
>>217735210Tales of Dunk and Egg 4: The she-wolves of Winterfell
>HBO once again throws away an opportunity to have melisandre show up
>>217735506The speech about the Targaryens by the Fossoway.
>>217736248>I actually hate the sworn sword because how the absence of Osgreys around 300 AC implies that Eustace and Rohanne never had any children.There's nothing implied about this, it is made explicit. Osgrey dies shortly afterwards and Rohanne Webber marries Gerold Lannister, her 4 children from that marriage are her only children. What's there to be upset about here? She only married that traitorous shit in the first place so she wouldn't be disowned by her father's will.
>>217736257Yep, it's still kino.
If knights are really assholes and rapists and aiming for the horse in a joust is just accepted, it should realistically be the most common tactic.
>>217735716Tbf I always thought asoiaf would have been more interesting had Cersei's incest and her kids legitimacy never been confirmed, the honourable Ned stark starting a deadly war out of unprovable rumours would have given it some real moral ambiguity. But alas that was never the kind of story asoiaf purported to be
MWAHHHH the Fossoway cider has always been celebrated for its excellence.
>>217736406cool it with the anti-Semitism appleboy
>>217736472but muh honor
>>217736472It's not accepted that's why Aerion got his ass disqualified
That knight who didn't even wait for his opponent to actually be in the list was also a dick.
....semoc eH
>>217736472are you retarded?
and another thing, as Gods are my witness, only thing that would make a Targaryen come to his senses if you hit him upside his head with a mace and made their brains plop out of their helmet
>>217736450>and then they found love against all od- SIKE, HE FUCKING DEADYou're a bad person.
>>217736472The point is that it's a sport like boxing or whatever that proves you have the balls to take a hit.And besides, well bred and trained warhorses were ridiculously expensive and valuable, so if you unhorse an opponent you get his shit so it makes no sense to kill the horse
>>217736388he's got 8000 years of Durrandon/Baratheon lineages showing there's never been a blonde Baratheon, there's nothing shaky about it
>>217736504Looks good
>>217736406Daemon Blackfyre had 0 bannermen.The lords and knights who followed him didn't go to war because they were forced to by oaths of fealty.The followed him because they wanted to go to war against the government.
>>217736505>found loveagain she suddenly married him because the time window not to get disowned was almost updude was old enough to be her father's father
>>217736472>aiming for the horse in a joust is just acceptedIt is more one of those things that is hard to prove x knight did aim for the horse, coupled with Aerion being a prince. Given that the show has it the crowd rioted and Aerion had to give up his horse, it also apparent it is not actually socially accepted.
>>217736526Read the fucking book.
>>217735967>>217736228Nevermind, found it
>>217736540Do you believe everything you are told second-hand? Is there water in your brain?
>>217736548What an asshole.
THREE BRATS FOUGHT OVER A SWORD AND A WHORE AND THE KINGDOM BLED
>>217736540take your own advice it couldn't be more clear she wanted Dunk but had to marry the old man insteadin fact the odds are good even after Ser Eustace died and she remarries again she's still fucking Dunk on the side and cucking Gerold Lannister
why did egg run and get dunk? he could have just told them to stop without outing himself to dunk
>>217736565Ashfords fuck sheep, after all
Dunk is suppose to be about 16. It is bit weird that he is 30 years old awkward virgin now.
>>217736576Why does one of them look like a sith lord?
>>217736576
>>217736594he is and he is the root of all evil in the universe
>>217736578Because he is a tiny kid. He went to the adult guy he trusts.
>>217736578he wanted to remain in fantasy land a little longer
>>217736594*school shooter
>>2177365781, hes a 9 year old and wasn't really thinking clearly2, he didn't *want* to reveal his identity
>>217736448
>>217736578He would have outted himself to the entire tent, lol.
>>217736594The sun isn't kind on albinos.
>>217736607t. a Brackenshit criminal
>>217736623notice how he isnt wrong
>>217736486Was he disqualified? I thought they just let him get away with it because he is a prince
asoiaf ends with jon and bran going back in time to possess daemon and brynden and unfuck the realm.
>>217736576>Harry, Draco and fish girl
Blackfyre wikifags need to be executed
>>217736623He drank the Fossoway cider.
>>217736654he bore the sword
>>217736623Based Noticer.
>>217736127In the third novella a a magical, one man version of the modern CIA surveillance state is introduced, this time period is portrayed as an incredibly centralised and paranoid probably not even rivalled by our modern world
>>217735559This character blew the entire twist and basically wait until next week LOSERWhat the hell man.>>217736486Is he out of the tournament now? I didn't really get that part?>>217736590Very weird character desu I think they leaned on the awkwardsauce way too much by this point. Not laughing at the finishes on your tits was too far imo you would at least give it a pity chuckle come on man.
>>217736643Baelor the Based didn't let him get away with it
>>217736623I am like 90% sure the original line was "sister's tits" but gurm made them change it because Targs haven't sisterfucked in the last two generations.
>>217736172>overt anti royal house symbolismser merwyn predates the targs
>>217736623Wouldn't saying this mean pretty much treason and hence cause for an execution? He really must trust Dunk
>>217736713Did they not feel the need to since there were no more dragons?
>>217736705>Is he out of the tournament now? I didn't really get that part?they establish it later on in the books, dunc spends some time in jail and ends up asking how the tourny went.iirc the guy whos horse got lanced kept his champion spot but his leg was shattered so he was realistically out of the tournament anyway
>>217735588literally the Westeros equivalent of chuds freaking out about orange fool
>>217736548Should have had a better squire
>>217736741There’s aren’t many Targ females during this time so they can’t be incestuous
>>217736721Yes, but he is also young and drunk. And his cousin apparently says similar things.
>>217736565You snooze, you lose
Were we supposed to be shocked at the end of episode 3? If you are completely blind to the (he's actually royalty in rags) trope, just listen to the way he speaks. Are normies so dumb, or is this one of those "second screen" shows?
>Lyonnel is supposed to be a great warrior with the weird quirk of telling jokes and laughing a lot>they turned him into a gay jack sparrow
>>217736626The ozone layer over King's Landing has been severely weakened thanks to dragons farting methane gas there for over a century. Steely Pate was right, literal pigs with wings.
>>217736721If you think that young rural Americans aren't constantly saying treasonous shit when they are drunk, then you are a fool.
>>217736565At least he aimed at the shield
>>217736721juxtaposes the situation with tanselletargs, being retards they were, saw daggers coming from totally benign powerless peasantsbut totally got blindsided by actual lords holding 300 year old grudges
In case you forgot
>>217736773Having a crippled woman put her fingers up your bum isnt gay bro
>>217736785dancing naked and trying to kiss men is
>>217736775Can you be executed for treason in america?
Jousting is really cool and it makes me want to go to Medieval Times or some shit. Nonwhites dont @ me.
>>217736248I my head cannon they had at least a son who now rules over both castles, but are still insignificant enough not be mentioned in the main story
>>217736799dependsdo you wear a small hat or not
>>217736799For High Treason, yeah.
>>217736644that would actually be cool and ironic
>>217736799Yes, though proving treason is difficult given the criteria required for a crime to be considered truly treasonous. Case in point, nobody from the Confederacy was ever charged with treason after the war ended.
>>217736623/ourapple/
>>217735964Rich, coming from an And*l
>>217736773>they turned him into a gay jack sparrowSame happened to euron, is that all they know?
>>217736819Politicians removed the death penalty for treason right before mass migration... makes you think
>>217736623When do Mike and Rich show up?
>>217736576leave daemon out of this, the war was caused by the blackwood and bracken shitheads
>>217736844children of the forest were like abos, part of the fauna
>>217736705>Is he out of the tournament now? I didn't really get that part?They've structured the tournament so poorly desu
>>217736129Just reforms anon, despite the quote gurm is not that interested in taxes or policies
>>217736748Thank you because I thought they should have had Dunc say something cliched admittedly but come on we need him to challenge the Targaryen guy to a Joust and really give Dunc his big reason to kick some ass, and give his Knight a Champion (being the female supporter of a Knight if anyone is confused what I mean). He would say you can't kill her either because she is my Champion!This is me speaking as completely a showfag not a book reader. This was the time they should have copied Boxing and had him say"You kill me you are a coward! I challenge you and I am a Knight here. I have been given big offers to be in this tournament (referencing the betting jobber) - my strength is impetuous, my horse skills are unrivaled and...and... *the crowd leans in* the best thing for this realm is if your dad finished on your moms tits!!!! Everyone in the tent cheers! Come on the audience needed that shit even if it was hyper cliched 80s sports movie fuck it.
>>217736863He hasn’t actually written about Egg’s reign yet what are you taking about
He would have won the war if he didn't bother checking on Gwayne after their duel and Bittersteel wasn't fucking late
>>217736844Fossoways would claim to be First Men in origin.
Why are the episodes only 30 minutes long? That's kinda gay.
>>217736859and andals came from essos 4000 years ago and started chimping out and attacking the First Men. They of course got crushed every where except for the Vale, but won culturally by whoring out their daughters to first men kings. Only the Starks didn't fall for the honeypot
>>217735459>"Rowan"Wouldn't have been my choice but she's ok as Rohann Webber nee Osgrey.
>>217736925>Only the Starks didn't fall for the honeypotThey did eventually
>>217736893No, all the Lords would’ve rebelled against his tyranny and toppled him.
>>217736893what's his first action as king? Total Dornish death?
>>217736771>>217736847To them charismatic just means camp. Which just ties into the greater problem that they cannot write period(ish) dialogue and turn everything into present year speaking, which will age incredibly poorly, while also awkwardly sitting alongside text directly taken from the story.
>>217736857Daemon wanted to marry that whore Daenerys and got friendzoned, Aegor gave him the last push cause he was pissed about Brynden getting Shiera and Dark Sister.
>>217736385Had hotd writers been competent, valyryan Vs andals customs and traditions would have been the underlying reason for the dance instead of girl power
Why is a random one-eyed barefooted knight suddenly emerges from the woods?Looking for a wild bum to rape?
>>217736053
>>217736705>Is he out of the tournament now? I didn't really get that part?He should be out, yeah.The way it works, there are 5 knights at the start, who are defending the "queen" (the teenage daughter of Lord Ashford). Anyone can challenge one of the 5 defenders. If you defeat the defender then you take his place. So in order to stay in the tournament and win a lot you need to stay a defender.
Do the dunk and egg books (what little there is of them) cover the Blackfyre rebellion or is that fire and blood (another unfinished series)
>>217736989the warrior bade him go for a walk
>>217736949>No, all the Lords would’ve rebelled against his tyrannyall of the high lords publically took Daeron's side but really stayed neutral because they didn't care one way or another and weren't very fond of the Dornish ass kissing, they all took Daeron's side but didn't really do all that much to prove it as Daemon and Ball were kicking ass across the country, only really the Vale stepped in and they got smashed.
>>217736999They kind of happen in the background, but they aren't covered properly. They are supposed to be covered properly in Fire and Blood Part 2, which will come out never
>>217736944>Catelyn is the first true Southern andal wife a Stark lord ever had>within 20 years the Starks are almost extinct and have lost the entire North
>>217736999second book has a flashback to the redgrass, third has the rebellion that died with a whimper as its main plot
>>217736989was this in the books?
>>217737027Nope. But he gets introduced here because he becomes relevant later.
>>217736965>Daemon wanted to marry that whore Daenerys and got friendzonedthat was like 10 years before her marriage and kids, more likely Daeron arresting him for nothing because of Bloodraven is what tipped him over the edge
Gods /GoT/ was strong back then
>>217737015I am SO TIRED of these BLACKFYRE BASTARDS and their RETARDED HEADCANONS
>>217735251Predict who shits or pisses or gets their dick out in the opening of next weeks episode.
>>217737039Shitty fanfiction
>>217736999we pick up almost all the info of the rebellion for there and other implications, and george's statements, the sequel to fire and blood, blood and fire is supposed to cover them in depth
Most actual nobility knew they need some minor tolerance because executing random people over jokes was a bad look for them. Otto told Aegon that he just couldn't execute random ratcatchers, Tyrion told Joffrey he couldn't send the guards to starved people. Aerion reacted the way he did because he felt himself a real dragon and he felt personally insulted. It has little to do with politics, he's just an idiot and his whole family knew he was an asshole, even his father. It was his bad behavior what caused that riot and he didn't care. They didn't justify what he did as he earned himself to be exiled as result of being such an idiot that he caused someone to die.
>>217737052Fuck off, egg.
>>217737052here's your retarded head canon
>>217737039Ok r/asoiaf
can you name one of George's characters that leads his life with honest religious zeal?
>>217737073which part of that was fan fiction?
Is he gay?
>>217737087Notice how this is an actual thing that happens which haunts the narrative, not something you made up in your head
>>217737100Aerys I
>>217737039>more likely Daeron arresting him for nothingpffft
>>217737100Zeal may be too loaded of a term to describe him but, Ser Bonifer Hasty.
>>217737100Maegelle Targaryen
>>217737113what head canon? all the high lords declared for Daeron but none of them really cared about the war with the exception of the Vale
>>217737111it's not gay to get your ass fingered by a crippled girl
>>217735695>everything filmed at night>can't see shitFuck this show.
>>217737111Yeah, he is very happy and having a good time!
>>217736721Yeah it's a bit unrealistic to have a noble be so careless as to say that to a rando he barely knows but it's also nice to have a show that doesn't just deep throat the targshits
this guy hates his family lol
>>217737039>more likely Daeron arresting himkek, dude was living innawoods in the riverlands until angru Aegor went and whispered in his ear
>>217736421>The Ghost of High Heart is a dwarf and mostly likely a Child of the Forest.I'd say she's a half-breed, human + CotF.
>>217737149That’s cause his Dornish blood is too powerful and he cba with Targ shit
>>217735734>Actually, what is that play about? Some scene from House of the Dragon arc?No, Westeros had tales of brave knights fighting dragons and such from long before the Targaryens.
>>217737149He knew targs are niggers
>>217737137Your entire second sentence is your head canon. I could just as easily say that only conniving lesser houses sided with Daemon because they benefited from Aegon IV’s misrule and were pissed at Daeron ending their gravy train, and that the war never really got the chance to go continental because nobody sided with the Blackfyres and because they flopped at their first battle
>>217737100Melisandre is the epitome of honest if misguided religious zeal
>>217735841>What disease causes constant spitting?Leftism.
>>217735459the second book is the besthttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T8c9Dq8faEk
>bastid!
>>217737149He actually looks Dornish here. like an Arab oil prince. not sure it's the filter or the expression making him look like that
>>217737192why did only the vale actually bother to send forces?
>>2177367191984 predates the trump presidency, didn't stop people from shouting "literally 1984" during his first term
He bore the sword, simple as
>>217737226We don’t know enough about the First Blackfyre Rebellion and what led up to it to prescribe anything one way or another
>>217735986>After Aegon’s invasion, Aegon’s half brother and the first Hand of the King named Orys Baratheon married the Durrandon heir Argella and took on the old Durrandon coat of arms, creating the new stormlord dynasty.Which is nonsense, the Stormlands would have been incorporated into the new Crownlands.
>>217737198from her introduction I read her story as that she always knew it was all a sham
>>217737149No, he just hates Aerion, like everyone else.
>>217737253We get her POV. She's a true believer.
>>217736623Me three drinks in at Thanksgiving dinner where I promised I wouldn't get political
He bedded Shiera, simple as.
>>217737240Horny fat men distributing swords is no basis for a system of government.
So is Egg having black pubes like.. something? Why is that brought up
>>217737253she never said it was a shamshe said she uses tricks and glamour to preform miracles but she thoroughly believed in the lord of lightI mean how could you not>brings people back from the dead>she's over 200 years old trough his magic>literally comes from a city that uses shadow magic>birthed multiple shadow assassins for StannisRhllor exists in ASOIAF
>>217737269I prefer the Greens but they clearly couped Rhaenyra
>>217736031>Valyria was both magically advanced and extremely prolific in atrocities, even by Westerosi standards.True, but the Targaryens were surprisingly lenient as conquerors, leaving most of the existing nobility in place and adopting Westerosi religion and culture.Of course the theory is that the Targs knew what was coming in the distant future (i.e. the Others) and that's why they weren't bat shit crazy murderous Valyrians.
>>217737288padding I guess, and a bit of a funny thing to ask the guy you met a week ago
>>217737291>couped a daughter from inheriting the throne while a trueborn son livescome on now
>>217737288He’s just a kid going through pubertyHe may have lied about having black pubes though
>>217737288Probably just a red herring for him not to be a targ in hiding
>>217737288Just a (funny?) way to show that Dunk and Egg are closer than Egg and his actual family are. He feels comfortable to ask Dunk about his weird puberty issues.
The Sorrows, whatever happened there?
>>217737264she's full of doubt, unwittingly describing herself as an indoctrinated childblood sugar sex magik, sick shit
>>217737291Viserys did not adhere to the precedent set by the Council of 101 AC, the very thing that made him sovereign over Rhaenys. His declaration of Rhaenyra as heir is moot.
>>217737291>allowing women to ruleConsidering how much a disaster letting them vote has been I’d say it was the smart move to make Aegon king
>>217737207Based
>>217737306>>217737320Viserys is the sovereign and can choose whatever heir he wants. One of Aerys’ heirs was a woman.>>217737321Perhaps but Rhaenyra was the declared heir
>>217737290Magic exists in asoiaf world. We don't know if it's Rh'llor or if he exists.
>>217736983Well they're now not even doing the whole Dornish influence question in this series
>>217737208>Targ loyalist gets sent to the Wall rather than bend the knee to Stagshitters>Spends his last days unknowingly bullying the last living male Targpottery
>>217737322>Your father is a fool
.
>>217737322Egg was right. That only meant he was a good warrior. A good warrior doesn't male a good King necessarily. Look at Robert.
>>217737351>Thoros calls for R'hllor to bring back Beric and it works>You can see prophecies in the flamesHe's not the only ''godly'' entity for sure. The drowned god is a thing and so are the old gods, but Rhllor is proven to be a thing
>>217737370you don't need to be a good king to be the right king"yes let me give my son the prized heirloom sword of the royal family, oh not because I wish him to take over lol just cause like hes good with a sword lol."
>>217737100The closer might be Cat, but no he mostly writes religion from the viewpoint of a late 20th century American atheist
>>217737100OH OH OH
>>217737399>promises the gods she'll accept jon as her son and have ned give him a trueborn name>doesn't>all her kids die
>>217737363He doesn't bully Aemon though (or Viserys)
>tfw no winds>tfw no more dunk and egg>tfw no fire and blood 2
Stannis will burn Shireen releasing a grayscale plague
The true downfall of the Targaryen dynasty started with that bastard Daeron. Vile Bastard blood and none of the Chad DNA the CHADfyres possessed. Simple as
>>217737463At the Wall??
>>217737426I like while the 7 being clearly the ''lamest'' religion in the lore, basically doing nothing, but all the others give you cool stuff at a great cost, making the entire thing not worth it>be brought back from the dead by the red god>you lose what makes you, you. You see what comes after death (nothing) and you're stuck to having to accept this until you die for real>drowned god, just in generally fucks you up, like patchface. And you get your ass whoopped by the hightowers>valyrians got blown up>blood magic with the old gods
>>217737374My point it that magic is a thing, but doesn't necessarily implies the existence of an entity. That's something people are just giving a form and structure based on their beliefs. Both Melissandre and Aeron could be just performing magic right and they both believe their own gods are responding when it's just magic working up.
The red meteor will return and smash into Essos killing everyone except Dany who flees to Westeros on dragonback and forms a marriage pact with fAegon.
>>217737363>Alliser gets sent to the wall for slightly inconveniencing Tywin attacking King's Landing>all the reach and storm lords that stayed loyal to Aerys got pardoned>Jaime gets away with killing the king>Gregor gets away with raping and killing the sister of a major lordkinda unfair, no wonder he is so salty
>>217737504i'd love it for prestons melt down if nothing else
>>217737485qrd on the hightower nukes?
>>217737486Melisandre didnt bring anyone back, only Thoros did (the show doesnt count). And he clearly did it by praying to the Red god, same for the visions in the flames.Its like saying patchface is jus randomly still alive after being drowned and singing about the deep ones and the drowned god, then claiming its just random magicthere's a clear connection
>>217736518On that note, it’s fucking hilarious that after the Targ speshul snowflake narratives they created about themselves, it’s House Baratheon that has the most extreme and superior genetics. Puny eastern magic can’t beat the chad Baratheon phenotype.
>>217736192TARGIE FUCKING SHIT MADE A FAUL
>>217737464>lost>lost>lost>fell for it>lost>lost>went extinct
>>217737363>gets sent to the wall for supporting the Targs>Noble houses dont get shit done to themno wonder he was bitter towards Jon
>>217736074How's MMA entertainment? Speedrunning CTE.How's Sumo entertainment? Those guys need devices to help with sleep apnea.
>>217737576>JonThat's LORD SNOW to you
Start the new thread before I piss meself
>>217737533the current lord hightower locked himself and his daughter into the archives studying forbidden magical texts and alchemy.Euron is trying to take down the citadel by summoning a dragon/kraken hybrid. The theory is that the hightowers have ancient shit that they hoarded for themselves, while using the maesters to get rid of anything magical for everyone elseThe general meme boiled down to the battle of blood being pacific rim, including krakens and hightower jaegers
>>217737426show only shit, in the books Cat never shows a hint of regret about how she treats Jon and literally goes to her grave fighting against Robb naming Jon his heir if he dies. She tells Robb to name some dude from the Vale with a relation 150 years ago to the Starks instead of Jon
>>217737426Does she actually? I remember her being pretty unrepentantly anti bastards
>>217737576He got sent to the wall because he refused to bend the knee to robert
>>217736090Egg is literally me when I was a kid. This was the type of shit I was troubled by
>>217737594>She tells Robb to name some dude from the Vale with a relation 150 years ago to the Starks instead of Jonkek genuinely whats wrong with her? like surely a bunch of the northern houses have closer relations to the starks
>>217737576He should have been more pissed at the Lannisters than at Jon instead of sucking them off since they were the ones that sent him to the wall and did the worst shit to the Targs he supported
>>217737612Bastards are monstrous by nature

>>217737648>turns into a literal murderous monsterpottery...
>>217737617he did hate tyrion thoughbeit
Eggs actor is genuinely better than most actors today. He has perfect expressions. He says a lot with his face and it doesn't ever seem overkill.
>>217737594Yup that's the Cat I remember and love. Fuck Jon snow
>Aerion bought horse armor DLC to make his horse look like a dragon
>>217737700I'd stove his damned horses head in
>>217737648Literally Alicent Hightower come again
Explain the Seven thing to me? The old lady was the crone, the eye patch guy was the Warrior, what about the rest? Have we seen anyone else yet?
>You can't hurt the Blood of the Drag- ACK
>>217737588>>217737735>>217737735>>217737735
I don't remember the last time I pogged so hard than Dunk beating the fuck out of that faggot Aerion
They capturing the dying empire vibes well. The targs technically still have power, but they're insecure, everyone knows it's a mirage and they're spending their time being retarded.Makes one think
>>217737700Dragon princes of Caledor type shit.
>>217737575>went extinctLol, lmao even. My side had a sword and a name. Nothing else. Your side had the full control of the 7 Kingdoms and lasted like 30 years more. Thats it. (Likely outlived them in the books where it matters)Blackfyre's were also very potent btw unlike Targsissies. Under CHADfyre rule there would never be a succession crisis. Like there was for said Targsissies.
>>217737775Most ridiculous cope ever
>>217737700would be funny if he used a real skull of one of the last dragons to dress up his horse.
>>217737149he knows Targs days are numbered
>>217735210This dress looks medieval to most people.But I bet no anon can actually say it isn't really medieval.
