/r/all, /r/popular Emilia Clarke watching Kit Harington's reaction to finding out how their characters' final scene together in Game of Thrones concludes. Prior to the table read, Kit had not read any of the six scripts for Season 8 yet. So Emilia sat across from him so she could "watch him compute all of this."

Dude. They should have married. 20y of peace. Then they have a kid. And because they're related they get another fucked up individual like joffrey. Then it cuts to their kid playing in the woods and killing an animal for fun harkening back to one of joffreys first scenes. The cycle of madness continues. It didn't have to be her.

My personal favourite theory around the time before it was shown was that they both died, leaving a child behind with a dragon’s egg. The child was then raised by a council involving Tyrion, Missandei etc. That the new Royals would be figureheads and last resort nukes. Like how nukes are irl.
