Weirwood Paste is People: Unfortunately, Jojen Paste Theory

Yep, it's Jojen Paste theory - but not like you've ever tasted before. Brand new evidence will have you believing Bran can fly - but only by eating his friend.

I think the saddest part of this theory (which I believe is true) is that Jojen KNEW when he was going to die, he knew he was going to be a sacrifice in order to awaken Bran's powers, you see how he becomes more and more depressed in the tree cave because he knows his life will soon be ended.

[@loooongneck]

To me it seems like more like the white stuff is actually ground weirwood… something (seeds? Acorns? Who knows) and the red streaks through it is Jojen’s blood. In this case Bran is taking in weirwood elements to help “wed him to the trees” and Jojen’s blood is simply the sacrifice that pays for that magic to take place. Bloodraven specifically denies that the paste will make him a green seer (which fits with the idea of Jojen’s blood in the paste containing green magic that Bran absorbs), Bloodraven says “your blood makes you a Greenseer.” He’s always had the gift, Jojen’s is just the price in a blood sacrifice that will pay for the awakening of Bran’s green magic

The Children are borderline demonic lol... There are tons of hints to it... I know the show is different from the books, but the ending of the show essentially illustrates that the 3 eyed raven is a warg/greenseer that had the powerful ability to fully warg not just into animals, but also into strong minded humans. It warged into Brynden Rivers, and then it warged into Bran. Bran at the end of the show is not Bran, and Brynden Rivers was no longer Bloodraven. The children basically played a long game of chess and took back their lands in a very clever way. The person/thing that ended up sitting on the iron throne was one of the most powerful children of the forest.

Bloodraven and Bran were already wargs, so they were suitable replacement bodies for the "raven". Once Bran's body gets old, it will lure another person to warg into. They even tell you that "the raven" holds the memories and knowledge of many ancient people/seers. It is all knowing. Bran's body and blood is not Targaryen, but it doesn't matter. The children just need a human body to sit the throne and be accepted. Why do you think Bloodraven knew so much about children's magic/rituals and worked so closely with them? He was one of them(warged). The Children are the most powerful beings in that world.

[@jssandler]

I should also point out that "weir" in weirwood sounds the same as "vir" or "man" in Latin. Which is also the derivation of werewolf and to become part man-part-wolf it is necessary to be bitten by a werewolf. So there's an element of the cannibalistic in classical horror tropes that George seems to be tapping into.

[@JOhnDoe-nl4wj]

wer is old english for man, derived from the proto germanic weraz and means male, similar to middle high german wér (man) or proto indo european wihros (also man) so in short, weirwood is similar to werewolf (Wërwolf (germanic man-wolf)) it's just not a man wolf but a man tree painfully obvious given the trees have faces and literally bleed blood

After Shaggydog bites Maester Luwin, it says: Rickon patted Shaggydog's muzzle, damp with blood. "I let him loose. He doesn't like his chains." He licked at his fingers. Did Shaggy lick Rickon's fingers, or did Rickon lick his own fingers? If the latter is true, Rickon essentially drank Luwin's blood. I always find this super creepy. This passage also has me wondering if Rickon was actually who Jojen was looking for as Rickon's wolf was the only one we're told was literally bound to earth by chains. But that's here nor there I suppose.

Ok, I think someone might have already said this but: the trees are mushrooms, that were once people. Think about it, the trees are connected to each other (via mycelium), the trees are a source of visions and hallucinations (much like shrooms) and I suspect the reason that the Three Eyed Raven is stuck in the tree not because he impaled himself on it, but rather it sprouted from him. I suspect that Green Seers are infected with this fungus, and it provides them abilities in a semi-dormant state, however, overtime, the infection begins to overtake the man. So they sequester themselves away, take root, and become the trees.

[@DavidLightbringer]

I’m thinking it was Jojen brains yeah

[@sadrien]

Fresh brains actually look white-pink, not grey. Especially young brains. The gray-ness is only very slight. It also has rivers of red running through it. The taste does not match. Brains taste like cream and butter and pork and cod liver all combined (although I've never had human brain, it's made of similar components to pig and lamb brain). Cod liver is a rather mild fishy taste. That overlapping fishy taste comes from oxidized long chain omega 3 fatty acids, especially the DHA in the brain. But the CotF have powerful magic. They could easily alter the taste, or at least Bran's perception. This also means that in order for the paste to be a werewood seed paste (ie the children telling the truth, which they seem to always do) the were wood trees have to be made of people. Or they could have simply seasoned it with weird plants, brain is mild in flavor, and also magic is going.

It could be made of Weirwoods seeds if corpses, or greenseers in particular are somehow used to plant Weirwoods. Jojen, and perhaps Meera as well, being the seeds.

Nope, not Jojen paste! I absolutely agree that the foreshadowing for Bram eating Jojen is there however I don't think he's in the paste. We establish in the vision that Bran knows what blood tastes like, as his life flowed out of him Bran could taste the blood. He says the paste tastes bitter and compares it to acorn paste. Not to mention it is white, so at most there's just a splash of Jojen, but I still think Bran would have tasted it. But my biggest reason to disagree is the parallel with the shade of the evening! Both are psychedelics that change from icky to tasty as you drink, and they come from trees with opposite colors. They are clearly parallel substances so I think they are both from trees. Although if they needed to sacrifice Jojen to put his green dream power into the paste, that covers the sacrifice, and maybe once Bran has learned more he will willingly eat Jojen

After reading that at loud I sound kind of like a ASOIAF Gestapo, which I kind of am so nevermind, keep scrolling the comment section or I will find you and make you read and make essays about the similarities between Jon Snow and the Arthurian sagas

Also, man, that Omer88 Coldhands picture is absolutely badass.

When I first read that passage by Varamyr on abominations...my first thought were “ these were all things the COTF have done for thousands of years”. In my opinion, the COTF were powerful because they manipulated and altered the natural world in their favor..humans just followed the example.

Your serenade of your viewers ROCKED!

[@Snakie747]

Anyone else watch this video over dinner? Is that weird?

[@Galvion1980]

GRRM has such a sick sense of humour...I love it! XD

[@paolabruno4437]

I had to retch near the end but it was enjoyable nonetheless hahaha I hope to see the last part of the Dany Podcast next!!!

This has been bugging me lately: "Your blood makes you a green seer" he means that generally. Everyone really thinks Jojen is the green seer, not Bran (due to the green eyes and green dreams) ...so "your blood makes you a green seer" could really mean Jojen and by eating Jojen, Bran indeed does take on his powers to be wed to the trees. I don't feel like simply eating paste (no matter who or what it's made of, lol) would be enough. Eating the frog boy was necessary.

[@mattbowman7759]

LOL the wordplay in this video was perfect dark humor.

[@alegaleano]

what a great way to start the weekend

[@lenasantos2413]

OMG! I've seen that movie...it was a hit back then . Soilent green... Love your uniqueness 🎆

Man, David, I just have to sayI'm new here by a few weeks and I am so sad I didn't check you out more thoroughly when I heard you on with Gray Area several years ago. But I'm making up for lost time. One of my closest friends also discovered you independently almost exactly when I did. We agree that we appreciate you so much and love all the ways you make this the absolute very best youtube channel alive. We love the theatrics, your original music, the wit and all the nutty references to obscure movies, songs, tv shows and even books. We marvel at how you make what you're doing look easy. We enjoy the community you have fostered here. We totally geek out with your handle on symbolism, mythology and preceding great works of literature. What else? You are truly brilliant and very lovable and kind with an edgy dark streak not to mention a real snappy dresser to boot and plenty easy on the eyes. (Shout out to Minty!) On behalf of my roommate and myself, I'd like to offer our most heartfelt gratitude for you and all your co-hosts and Minty and Cleo, too, and for all that you all do for us fans out here. Bravo! Kudos! THANK YOU!!!!

All the work you have done for the series is so unique and eye opening. You have reveled many secrets and an overall understanding of ASOIAF, but I think more than that, you have discovered a way (Georges way rather) that each characters arc is laid out. And now that the story makes more sense we can guess at the many paths of the future ( when expectations are subverted it will be because their are so many options).

[@beaver6d9]

I was looking away when you said Bitches Brew, so I stopped and rewound in case there was a Miles Davis reference on screen and I was not disappointed.

[@kashhusain8154]

One of your most entertaining videos.

[@justinkroboth360]

"No cut and PASTE affair" you really are good at what you do here

[@210SAi]

Soylent Green is where GRRM came up with the Brown in Flea Bottom Eating White Walker meat can’t be good for you......

[@jonerikson5925]

Just discovered your channel, and this is the second video I watch....and I'm laughing so hard I almost choke. And I have a sudden urge for red jello.
