For one, Drogon glaring at Jon. Yeah, it's totally "You hurt her, I’m gonna go flame-broiled Whopper on your ass." Remember, dragons are vastly intelligent, some think smarter than humans. There’s no reason not to believe that Drogon loves her with all the ability that a human does. He is protective of not just her bodily safety, but her heart’s as well. Drogon knows how much Dany loves Jon, since they have some kind of psychic/empathetc link. 

On that note, the A Whole New (Fucking Cold) World dragon ride.  I don't think people are really focusing on what an enormous gesture it was for Daenerys to not only allow, but insist Jon get on Rhaegal. The scene was definitely played for laughs (which was an odd choice I thought), but in essence Dany just proclaimed Jon Snow as her equal. She has never even thought about anyone ever riding her dragons, much less invite them. She essentially just chose Jon Snow to rule with her. And with the old guys talking about getting them hitched, Dany may actually see that this is meant. I'm not proposing a happy ending here, and I’m not saying Dany’s gonna just be A-OK with it all. but I think they will agree that marriage would be the best way to move forward (especially w/Dany preggers, cuz she is). We all know that Jon doesn’t want the Iron Throne, I mean, we pretty much know. That being said, yes, everyone will die and no one will be happy.

As for Cersei sleeping with Euron, she was definitely playing on a few levels-- revenge sex against Jaime, securing Euron's loyalty, and also possibly covering up her pregnancy, claiming Euron as the father. That would be such a fuck-you Cersei thing to do-- after all, she's done it with ALL of Jaime's children. If she births "prematurely", she is older, so a premature birth wouldn't be questioned. That I believe was why she was on the verge of tears after he said, "I'm gonna put a prince in your belly." There's already one there (for now). It also explains why she's drinking again. For all her machinations, she's really at the point where she doesn't care. If she carries to term, fine. If she doesn’t, fine. I personally don’t think she was lying about her pregnancy. I think at this moment, Cersei just wants to see the world burn. 

Note to Northern Men. 2 things:

1. Stark men don’t do well down South

2. Don’t name your kid Ned.

Ok, after watching this about 5 times and comparing it to the 18 times I’ve watched the Wall coming down, the Night King’s message has become abundantly clear:

He keeps making the sigils of those he’s coming after. 

Compare the image above to the Targaryen symbol:

And what is that burning message made of? Fire and blood.

Now compare this:

To THIS:

Yup. That’s the Stark sygil flipped.
