You will be missed… 😭😭😭 After Hodor’s death this is the second time I cried in GOT 😭😭😭

None of these gifs are mine.

Can we talk about how Dany says “Dracarys” in this scene for a second?

Throughout the entire series, every time she commands Drogon to scorch her enemies into ashes she is saying it with such scorn and something like anger in the heat of a moment or battle. In this scene, however, Danerys calmly and regally really, commands Drogon to burn the Tarly father and son duo for refusing to bend the knee. It is an execution. I think what differentiates Danerys executing someone and Cersei executing someone for similar crimes is that Danerys is respectful about the whole matter. Cersei acts from rage and aggression and insecurity while Dany acknowledges the crime and duly provides the punishment. She is not cruel; she is powerful and strong.

Tyrion and some of the others in her entourage may think that she is becoming too vitriolic like her father but she really has grown into a queen; a queen who has experienced horrible things happen throughout her life and has now come to realize her true power as the mother of dragons and true ruler of Westeros. I’m proud of her for behaving in such a way, for quietly yet firmly buttressing her strength in front of the remnants of the Lannister army.
