Dishonorable Mention 1 :Daenerys Targaryen And Khal Drogo
the Actors have great chemistry, but don’t let it fool you. it started with dani being sold for an army, raped till she became suicidal & developed Stockholm syndrome. It wasn’t cute Dani just adapted to her abusive life.
Dishonorable Mention 2: Tyrion Lannister & Shae
We all Rooted for these two in the beginning, happy to see our favorite lannister find love however shae’s Jealousy despite Tyrion’s reassurances then their dramatic break up, betrayal and Passion killing ended it on a bitter note.
Dishonorable Mention 3: Jaime & Cersei Lannister
Emotionally abusive, we’ve seen instances of gaslighting, betrayal “two halves of one soul” and “Born together die together” were not romantic, but rather delusion meant to be invalidated as Jaime’s awakening/redemption progressed
GOT however chose to delete the tysha/Lancel Conversation Jaime has with tyrion which deeply hurt both of their stories and forced twincest to last longer than it should have. Jaime condoning cersei’s actions on s6 finale made the showrunners’ bias in favor of this ship clear
10- Sansa & Theon
Friendship or more, these two are quite a pair. Sansa awakens theon after years of being reek and he earns his redemption by helping her escape their hell. the Reunion on 8x2 was so heartwarming. After his death Sansa pays him a last homage as a Stark
9- Jon Snow & Ygritte
Fun Enemies to lovers pair. with her spunk and quips “you know nothing Jon Snow” and his double agent mission complicates things No matter what, they loved each other and her death was one of the most tragic of the show. If we die we die But first we’ll live
8- Grey Worm & Missandei
Love blooming when it didn’t seem as an option for two former slaves (one mutilated) was so great to watch unfold,unique and inspiring. A shame GOT fridged Missandei in an Illogical way (how did euron reach their ship?) to create drama. Deserved Better
7- Daenerys & Jorah
Unrequited love/friendship, but in hindsight the closest to love she got. it was a unique dynamic, full of trust, love and devotion with a few bumps in the road they overcame. it ended as it was meant to be, having each other’s back till the end.
6- Sam & Gilly
the cutest relationship and only endgame. You don’t have to be all warrior-like to be a savior, started as a selfless act that slowly developed into love through kindness and devotion. Perfectly complete each other.
5- Oberyn Martell And Ellaria Sand
Most badass and Spicy ship everEnded too shortly yet their love was so obvious. it was PERFECTION Can I take a skull to bed with me? to give me comfort in the night? Will it make me laugh?write me songs, care for me when I am old and sick?
4- Arya & Gendry
Her story was about building a pack after being a lone wolf for so long almost losing herself, she was traumatized that should not have been glorified. their marriage could have reshaped the whole concept by being together without conforming to tradition.
3- Ned & Catelyn Stark
“Love didn’t just Happen to us, we built it over the years, stone by stone… for all of us, it’s not as exciting as passion in the woods but it is stronger, it lasts longer.” Not all love starts at first sight and it’s beautiful and more realistic.
2- Loras & Renly
“When the sun settles no candle can replace it.” The tragic story about two men in love when their world was not so accepting, and the heartbreaking loss when renly is killed in their youthful/reckless quest for power. Deserved so much better.
1- Jaime & Brienne
Enemies to friends to lovers, Longest slowburn stretching through 7S. A pairing that look so different on the outside yet so Similar on the inside a stark contrast to twincest. Both beauties and beasts, cast outs finding love and acceptance only in each other
the relationship that provides the love and validation each character needs, brienne loves and believes in Jaime despite his past in a healthy way he sees past her exterior to love her for who she is, Admires her as a knight and makes her dream come true by making it official+
the show failed them purposefully for their own bias, turned brienne into “the big woman” joke gave them the shortest safest sex scene of all the show, denied them the acknowledgment of their long repressed feelings and separated them in the worst, OOC, insuling way possible
to validate jaime’s abuser?he can’t move on from cersei? despite his book counterpart doing it in the equivalent of s4 finale? when u aren’t conventionally beautiful u don’t deserve love? u aren’t enough? no one will choose u? GRRM’s goal is the exact opposite this is show bias+
Game of throne failed its most important relationship for nothing. giving those character the worst end possible. Brienne is alone, heartbroken,unloved condemned to serve for life. Jaime died as an honorless Knight and his sister’s prisoner erasing 8 S of character development
Regardless the two worst episodes cannot erase SEASONS of a beautiful relationship and their ASOIAF origin. Jaime and brienne is the couple that makes u believe in love, it is the deepest and healthiest of all, in another world they could’ve had a better more fitting ending.
We know we’re a Star Wars blog, but what the fuck,Game of Thrones.
They’re coming for you next
I mean, that’s WHY all of this has happened, from what I understand. D&D got offered a Star Wars trilogy, but to make their scheduling work they had to wrap up GoT faster than they’d planned. HBO wanted full seasons of 8 and 9, but they wanted Star Wars.
Which…really goes towards the greediness that I see in a lot of pop culture “iconic” creators. They want the new shiny toy but they don’t want to give up the old shiny toy, either. D&D could have passed off the series to someone else for seasons 8 and 9 but they didn’t want to; similarly, JJ Abrams wants Star Trek but also Star Wars but also Mission Impossible. These guys—and it’s always white guys—jump from franchise to franchise and that a. Prevents other people who AREN’T the select group of white guys from breaking into the big leagues, and b. Creates a schizophrenic experience for viewers of a franchise or series. The quality of the movie or TV show suffers, because there isn’t a coherent artistic vision from start to finish.
It’s not a meaningful story to these guys. It’s a toy.

Request: Can I have a Daenerys x Fem! Reader please? Reader is very artistic and interested in Danny’s dragons so she tries to get close to them and they’re chill about her climbing all over them? And Danny notices she’s missing only to see she’s just with her dragons?
Warnings:None
Pairing:Daenerys x Reader
A/N: I loved writing this because I love drawing her dragons. Made it a bit personal for me, which I thank you for!
The dragons eyed you warily as you tried to sneak up to them, holding your leather-bound drawing book in one hand. You’d never been this close to them before. It was one thing to sketch them flying above the ocean, but to get up close and personal was a whole different thing entirely.
You peeked around the rock you hid behind and took in a deep breath. Drogon’s snout was inches away from your face. He seemed amused at your reaction, blowing hot air from his nostrils before he moved to the side so Viserion could come to investigate you as well.
They were gorgeous. Even more so up close. At the same time though, you couldn’t help but feel intimidated. Not only were they beautiful, but they were massive. Your entire body could fit in the smallest one’s mouth with wiggle room.
“I hope you don’t mind,” You struggled to sound confident, “If I sit here for a while.” Reaching behind you for the rock you found nothing, instead falling on your bottom in the grass.
Drogon and Viserion both made chirping noises, shifting around to make themselves comfortable on the grassy field. If dragons could laugh, that’s what it’d sound like.
Soon after you settled and opened your book Rhaegal came over to see what the fuss was about, appearing much less interested than his other siblings.
After a while of rough sketches, you decided in order to make something you’d be satisfied with you’d have to get closer. Surprisingly enough the dragons had no problem with that, nor with you climbing onto them. At first, you were a bit nervous, but when you were on them they didn’t move around much since they knew you’d never been on a dragon before so one wrong move would have you tumbling to the ground.
You were just finishing up a rather large portrait of the three dragons when their mother approached. She had been looking for you for quite a while now and was checking the last place she thought you’d be.
Seeing you up there on her dragons made her smile. Not a lot of people adored her children the way she did, and almost no one would ever dare to climb on them without her around.
“(Y/N)?’ She called out with her voice like honey, smiling up at you. “How long have you been here? I’ve been looking for you.”
You looked over Viserion’s head to her and grinned. “I have no idea, the time goes by quickly with them. What did you need me for?”
She walked closer to her dragons and stopped at Drogon, reaching a hand up to stroke his chin. “A boat arrived with loads of fruit, some I’ve never even seen before. I thought you might be interested.”
“You know me very well, Khaleesi!” You laughed as you struggled to climb down from the dragon, using his scales and horns to help you. When your feet touched the ground she caught a glimpse of your art, gasping playfully and reaching out to it.
“You’ve been drawing my children? Well, let me see them.” She grabbed for the book and for a second you pulled away, you couldn’t help but put up a pathetic fight. You knew though that if anyone were to see your drawings it would be her.
“Alright. They’re not very good, I’m afraid.” You handed her the book and she flipped through a few pages, her lips turning into a smile at some and frowning at others.
“This one is so sad,” She moved closer to you and pointed at a portrait of a woman you had done a long time ago. She was an older woman you had seen in Westeros, a poor commoner in Flea-Bottom. She was skinny, starved to the bone, cradling a small child. Her daughter had been killed and she was left to take care of her grandson on her own.
You nodded and sighed, remembering the awful sight. “It was awful. There was nothing I could do but give her the gold I had on me. It wasn’t enough… I wished I could have bought her a house of her own and food for the rest of her life. It was only enough to secure her a stay at the local in for a while and feed the two of them, but… It still didn’t feel right.”
Daenerys looked at you with a soft smile. “That’s more than most people would do. You probably saved her life, and the child’s.” When you nodded back she continued flipping through the pages, stopping on one of the more recent pictures.
Her lips parted and she looked at you, a brow raised. “You’ve drawn me? And you never showed me this?”
“Like I said, Khaleesi.” You chuckled and scratched the back of your neck nervously. “They’re not very good.”
“You artists are all the same. You think your beautiful drawings are awful, but to everyone else they’re amazing. I can’t even think of the right words to describe this.” After she spoke she looked back down to the pages and smiled. “I demand you draw more.” She thrust the book back into your hands with a grin.
“Oh, do you?” You laughed at her playful mannerism and tucked your book and pencils back into your satchel, closing its button.
“I do. An official order from your Queen. Tonight, in my chambers, you’ll draw me again.” Her words made your heart leap and your stomach flutter.
In an attempt to hide your blush you dipped your head and scratched your cheeks, humming in response. “I’ll see you then, Khaleesi.”
Daenerys smiled widely and shook her head, you were so adorable to her it hurt her heart. “Yes, you will.”
When she walked away you turned around and gasped, coming face to face with three nosey dragons.
Just found out last weel there was DaarioDay, and coincidentally yesterday I drew this XD (’cause I took the challenge by @racefortheironthrone to create a Daario as flamboyant and YELLOW as he’s in the books)
