Mikey B “Being a dragon” doesn’t mean killing innocent people for no reason, she’s been a dragon in Essos and look how much she accomplished. Benioff and Weiss shat on Daenerys Targaryen’s character, GRRM has said it himself this ending was traumatic and not faithful to his work.

@Silicon Nomad metaphorically... but d&d screwed it all up and stated it was just an abstract object for him to burn 🤦🏼‍♀️ Which means the throne was always pointless...like Jon, The WW, Jon's death, ect...I could literally keep going 😕

[@incomments2864]

I cried watching the scene with Dany and I cried again watching your reaction and watching the scene again. Daenerys is my absolute favorite character and watching this scene with Drogon broke my heart.

[@blojosh]

I'm more broken than Bran over Dany. I have a theory that Drogon is taking her to his actual birth place, Asshai, to have her resurrected by the Red Priests that live/practice there. He'll have some friends too, if dragons are still roaming the area. Wishful thinking.

[@eileenanglinactor]

Same here. I will hold onto that to get over how sad I am about The Mother of Dragons and Drogon. I was also sad about the loss of Visyrion and Rhaegal.

Oh gosh! I also cried with you since I wasn't able to see this one yet and it was a good wait to cry along with you while watching Drogon carefully picked up Dany's lifeless body and flew away.

[@domdom3938]

Thank you for seeing Dany getting power-hungry due to the Iron Throne instead of what a lot of people think that she was born like it. Drogon did such a good choice. He ended that which caused all this suffering, all the deaths. He pretty much broke the wheel Dany always wanted to break by melting the Iron Throne so I find it very satisfying that Drogon fulfilled his mom's wishes even though I am sad she had to die. I originally just wanted her to snap out of the Iron Throne business and go back to Essos with her armies and Drogon and possibly Rhaegal back then to live out her life where people actually love her instead of fearing her as they do in Westeros

[@Jasmine_U_B]

Emilia Clarke's acting in this episode is 120/100. Just insanely good. To me, the episode died when she died.

[@tanakinskywalker7089]

Danny’s always been like that. She only kept it hidden because she didn’t have anyone backing her until she married khal drogo. As soon as she did she stood up to her brother, and after drogo died she started burning people. When she went to qarth she threatened to kill them before she was even let in. After she was let in she threatened everyone again. She said she’d take it with fire and blood all the way back in season 2. She didn’t just turn in one episode she was always a tyrant and she never cared about anything other than what she wanted

[@rosaleee9752]

I think Dany’s storyline is one of the only ones who seemed true to how it was likely to end. She said it herself, she would take what she wanted with fire and blood. I expected her story to go this way

[@creoloko]

Drogon mourning left me devastated, I think it was a mix of sadness and anger to see Danaerys character died in such a poorly way. She deserved better.

[@marleymarsss]

That scene of Drogon nudging Dany's corpse, broke my heart, idc what anyone says, I felt his pain. When he carried her away, I'm assuming he took her back to Valyria. I didn't understand why he didn't roast Jon at first until it hit me, he realized that it was her obsession and pursuit of the iron throne is what ultimately killed her. At least that's what I took from it.

[@emmax9852]

I also think he saw that Jon was as heartbroken as he was. He could tell what his intentions were.

Being a huge Daenerys fan I love your reaction. I knew that she would have to be stopped after the Kings Landing BBQ but I honestly don't know why they made such a plot twist. Just think of how many people she had saved from chains and was praised like Jesus and now she's basically killing innocent people. I still remember the time when she was devastated that her dragons killed one innocent child that she hid them into a tomb. Hopefully, they'll give her justice in the books. R. I. P.

OMG, it was so lovely that you started crying in the opening. Your reactions are always great. Thank you for sharing them with other people, and I hope you keep doing that with many other series.

[@Fearsia]

I'm just relieved Drogon didn't die. I was worried that if Dany died, they'd also kill him even though he doesn't have to. His screams though are stuck in my head from when he realized his mother was dead. Drogon lost everyone he's ever cared for. I just want to know what's happening to him now. Were there eggs laid? If he finds other stone eggs, will he hatch them because he might know how to since he's a dragon himself? What happened to Dany's body? Could he have taken her to Valeria and burned it? Did Greyworm and the others of Dany's forces see Drogon, got him to stop and got her body from him? (SPOILERS SINCE THIS WASNT IN THIS REACTION) Why did Bran want to find Drogon? I wish Bronn hasn't cut Sam off, now we have no clue what Sam was trying to say. What are they going to do to Drogon?

[@eileenanglinactor]

Cosigning to everything you wrote. Heartbreaking.

Thanks @American Mum!

[@majicmoe151]

Jamie was bad then went good and back to bad? Its not that simple. Jamie above all else loved his family and most of all his sister. Yes he did good things but that doesn't mean he stopped loving his sister. Even when he left to ho north he told her he's all she has left. Meaning he intended on returning. Everything he did he did for his family. He'll do it again if he had to. That includes the bad things. It was the ending most fitting for who he is. Dying in the arms of the woman he loves and would do anything for.

[@athinimqoboli2957]

I would have loved to see Greyworm and John go head to head

[@joshjohnson2753]

@eddiewinehosen LMFAO. It was the writers, D and D, who decided to only do 7 epsiodes for season 7 and 6 for season 8. They were reportedly offered 10-12 seasons, full 10 episode seasons, and they turned it down and instead put out this rushed nonsense, because again the writers, D and D, are going to be working on the new starwars movie and needed to finish up the game of thrones to go rush off to their new project. Sooooo the commentator and everyone who says it's the writers fault is 100% correct because they made the decision to shorten the seasons and do less seasons.

I was disappointed we didint get to see more of Drogon at the end and maybe have him burn Dany's body. Would have been poetic for the "unburn" EDIT: as a cherry on top, to give a “sweet” of the bittersweet, why not also show that there are two or three petrified dragon eggs, which would hatch baby dragons once drogon burned her body?

[@Mitsu2040]

Yes, have them burn and then when the screen goes black we could hear baby dragons. I think every season always ended with a dragon roaring but this one.

[@Leo_ofRedKeep]

No character arcs were ruined. Things weren't even rushed, The behaviours of both Jaime and Daenerys were predicted by people who watch the show several times and analyse it. They saw all the little things that make it make sense. They knew Daenerys told Hizdahr in S5 that destroying a city could be for good reasons. They understood Daenerys burned King's Landing not out of madness, not upon some psychotic reaction but because she deemed these people unworthy of the new world she wants. She basically said so twice in the last two episodes. They also knew that Jaime never left Cersei, he only left King's Landing to join the "fight for the living" and kept repeating, season after season, that he only loved and cared for her. No surprise there. The surprised and disappointed people are those who went through the show just once and never got the chance to consolidate all the information they got.

I really liked that you touched on the storytelling aspect! It was too bad that the writing quality dropped but a show with both great and lacking writing is a really good way of teaching new writers how (and how not) to write stories, overall it will probably have a positive effect. Also, since dragonryders might somewhat function like wargs, a part of Dany's sould might have been in Drogon after she died. If this is the case, Dany forgave Jon, and finally decided that the Throne is best when non-existent
