This scene really stood out. At first watch, I figured he was just being an a$$hole to Jon Snow about joining the Nights Watch.

Jamie was actually warning him, Kingsguard is pretty much the same thing. The look of frustration that he gives after Jon is still all hyped up on joining.

Im rereading ASOIAF, just read this;

"The two children could not have looked more different, him with his olive skin and straight black hair, her pale as milk with a mop of golden curls; light and dark, like Queen Cersei and King Robert."

Could Robert have actually fathered Marcella, and Cersei was just wrong? She may have forgotten to drink that liquid Plan B they used
No because the story goes out of its way to remind you how strong Roberts genes are:russ:

The one thing that House of Dragon needs to do is expand the scope. I think what was great about GOT it gave us all these different POVs and took us to different landscapes. We need more of that in HOTD.

Was just thinking about something. If Rob married walder Frey's kid do we still get the Red Wedding? Or does Rob actually live and House Stark survive.

definitely wouldn’t have gotten the red wedding but perhaps tywin comes up with another plot/scheme to kill robb stark

But who's to say he doesn't betray him anyway. The Lannisters can make a great offer, and walder has never been known for loyalty
Rob was recognized as a king to the north and all their allies, so marrying him would make a frey a queen. The lannisters wouldnt be able to offer walder anything more than that

No the fukk they couldn't:mjlol: Tywin was LOSING that war and the clock was ticking on his chapter.

Keep in mind the reason Robb even had to marry the Frey girl. Frey gave Robb his soldiers that helped give him such an upper hand

Tywin was lucky that Robb was a sucka for love because if he just married the Frey girl like he was supposed to we would've been looking at Roberts Rebellion part two

Also keep in mind at this point in history the Lannisters are broke. Tywin was in debt to the Iron Bank trying to fight Robb. There was nothing to offer

And Walder had no reason to betray Robb if his daughter becomes Queen in the North and possibly of the 7 kingdoms. Nikkas don't betray nikkas just because they feel like it:mjlol: Walder really didn't do anything wrong out side of violating guest right to be honest:manny:

You talking about loyalty like Robb didn't betray Walder first. I would've killed that nikka too:mjlol:
