If I hadnt read the last two books I would be a lot more excited about this.  As it is I havent watched this season.  I may get around to it when it is re-run on Showtime or something like that.

Daenerys truly is worthy to rule over Westeros. :wub:
Great.  Two guay guys rooting for Daenarys.  I'll have to rethink my allegiance now.  <_<

:P

Don't worry. She'll get back to her usual business of sitting around being indecisive soon enough.

You're on the side of EVIL, right down to your cold black heart.  :(
I always wanted to be EVIL, but not like that :(
I don't do meditation.  I drink alcohol to relax, like normal people.

Like what?  Nobody is forcing you to have homoerotic fantasies Viper - only you can do that.  Or do you mean having a more... refined sensibility?

WEll, in the show they don't seem to be following with the entire "Kingsguard cannot marry" thing. Tywin refers to Jaime as his heir, for example.

Of course...actually, in the show, is Loras a Kingsguard?

Tyrion mentioned a couple of episodes ago that Jaime can't inherit.

And now that you mention, Loras is not a Kingsguard on TV IIRC

Loras is named a Kingsguard at some point during the 3rd book, so they're still on time.
IIRC it has something to do with Margery's marriage. Pretty sure it was after the battle when the deal was made that Smarmy-king granted her request for Loras in the kings guard to replace the guy who tried to kill Tyrion.

It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

It just occurred to me that Daenerys is, literally, a cunning linguist.  :hmm:
