      She so sweet and playful, especially compared to the other dragons closer to her age!
      I've been staying up to 2am for the episodes each week too, I actually booked every Monday off work for the duration of the season 😂

    Thanks for the shout out! and yeah I had a chuckle when he indeed was just going after Vhagar 😂. I'm fascinated by the dragonkeepers too, Ryan Condell said they had to change the elaborate armor described in the books because of simple budget reasons, but it I think it works they come off more monastic than militaristic. Wonder if the keepers in KL would also view Rhaenyra as a blasphemer? I wish you good fortune in your war against technology.

      @blinkusfishus2052 credit where credit is due, of course! As soon as I seen it, I was like, yeah we got him😂
      They are a fascinating group! Like are the dragonkeepers on Dragonstone a separate group/sect/splinter to those in King's Landing, or are they supposed to be "impartial" to politics and act as envoys in either location from one larger collective? And if so, will these keepers defect to King's Landing? Or will they return upon hearing silverwing and vermithor have also been claimed and there and new dragonriders in need of training? So many lines of inquiry🤔

      @@SinXerxes yeah maybe the dragons acceptance of Ulf and Hugh will simply be enough to get the keepers back on side, there is plenty to ponder about them though, The dragonpit in Kingslanding isn't that old so maybe they're like a newer branch of the Dragonstone sect that's been around since Valyria? Jaehaerys just makes them an officially recognized order later on? A lot to ponder on for people who basically stand in the background in most scenes. Some stuff from episode 8 leaked already, Did you see it? or just happy to wait a few more days for the whole pie?

      @blinkusfishus2052 these background characters are begging for us to hatch a couple of theories, I fear 😂
      Yes, unfortunately, I've seen some spoilers just from going on twitter (bc I have a twitter specifically for asoiaf, so naturally, it was flooded). But I've avoided it since, I'd rather hold judgement til I see the full official episode.
      I'm going to do the trailer review later and will be avoiding spoiler talk for those who'd rather not know🐉

    Not sure how the season finale will go but this episode to me is the climax of season 2. Syrax & Seasmoke chatting it up, Vermy getting a free buffet/rider & Silverwing being the sweetest girl in the whole show LOL. The way she booped Ulf was just like how Sunfyre did to Aegon a few episodes back. They've really done a great job on showing the bond between the riders and their dragons.
    Also, I'm purposely trying not to read ahead but I always make it a rule of thumb not to get too attached to any of the characters in this universe.

      @Gintello9 the amount of quality dragon screen time we got this episode was so satisfying, but it looks like we have some good dragontime in the finale too!
      They really gave vermithor the most immense hellish fury, just to make his paramore and mated pairing such a sweet and playful girl who just wanted a little buddy to play with, I adore her
      I'm doing the same! Reading along but not ahead is a dangerous game; it's so tempting to keep going😂

      @@SinXerxes Yep! Sooo excited & I actually have the Monday off so I can properly enjoy the finale haha.
      Silverwing is definitely the good queen's dragon. Alyssane was said to love the small folk and the highborn alike and Silver took on those qualities of her former rider. I personally love aemond and Vhagar bc I was spoiled on his story arc but silver and Ulf won my heart.
      I had to know every single detail in game of thrones and it was only the fact that GRRM hadn't finished the story that kept me from reading on. Just getting to enjoy hotd for what it is makes every episode so much better!

      @Gintello9 ah good choice, I've done the same! You'll need a day to recover before the long wait for season 3
      It's so interesting to look at the dragon and rider traits now that we have a little more relationship building and character understanding. Our girl silverwing is truly a hero of the proletariat (at this stage, we'll not speculate on future actions) we love her😂
      We stay optimistic for Winds and Dream 🙏

    Glad Team Black has some wins. The Three huge dragons at the end, amazing. Hits at team Green were rough.
    Frantically looking at a search of Ice and Fire and the wikis, Sigil watch is the way. House Vance's branches representing Team Green and Black by absolute coincidence, not George's intention. The Dornish of House Toland liked to represent a dragon defeating itself, though green so as not to directly insult Targaryens.
    Was a really fun episode with the dragons Shrek, How to Train your Dragon and Smaug not far off.

      @shaneoconnell9279 oh I've been glued to wiki of ice and fire this season, it's so fun to make these connections that they're breadcrumbing to us!
      Sigil watch might be my favourite segment on these videos, you know. It's interesting the green dragon defeating itself. Given that Aegon's banners are emblazoned with the gold dragon representing Sunfyre, Aemond would definitely have taken the green dragon on his banner given the opportunity, from his Hightower mother and the mother-monster Vhagar🐉

      It is quite humorous, ironic even, seeing them run from the dragon when they have 2 on the sheild they hold!
      Agreed, the most elite sigils are creature sigils
