#jonsa is here

Hi Anon!

Well this is a hard question. Because you are asking me to pick just one among many great foreshadowings. I have always liked Jon's ridiculous jealousy on Joffrey( It brought a rare side of him, which we haven't seen again after his departure from Winterfell), His thing for Red-heads, and Sansa wanting a daughter to look like Arya( which is possible only if a particular bastard from the north is willing to comply 😉) , Jonnel-Sansa pairing in the family tree etc.

But the thing that absolutely blew my mind lies in the prologue and the last chapter of the ASOS. You might have heard of that. But I feel like it deserves better recognition from our fandom. That's why I picked that.

It is the Chett/snow/Sansa thing.

Chett connects falling snow to Jon snow in the prologue of ASOS

"Snow was falling.

He could feel tears freezing to his cheeks. It isn't fair, he wanted to scream. Snow would ruin everything he'd worked for, all his careful plans... the snow's taken it all from me... the bloody snow

Snow had ruined him once before. Snow and his pet pig. "

-ASOS Chett Prologue

And later in the same book. Sansa experiences the same snow fall but her reaction to it was anything but antagonistic.

" Snow was falling

On the Eyrie.. she had last seen snow the day she had left Winterfell ( which could also be applied to Jon because that was the last time she could have seen him too) .... Drifting snow flakes brushed her face as a lover's kiss and melted on her cheeks. She could feel the snow on her lashes, taste it on her lips. It was the taste of Winterfell, taste of innocence and taste of dreams"

- ASOS Sansa(Chapter 80)

So GRRM basically says that Falling snow should remind you of Jon snow and let Sansa have a romance with it later in the same book.

It is not even that Subtle, that's why I love this one the best.

I would like to thank you all just for letting me be a part of this incredible family which I truly hold dear. I felt really welcome here and I believe that Jonsa fam is one of the best fandoms I have ever been a part of.

I have been a Jonsa shipper since season 6 but decided to create a blog dedicated exclusively to Jonsa just a few months ago because I felt that this is the right time, Jonsa is gonna be the endgame soon after all :)

However, it is not only about the home atmosphere, it is also about the brilliant metas, fics, edits, theories which were on point; we all could see the things no one else could and we were able to look beneath the surface to come up with some parallel and hints, which, in my opinion, makes us some kind of masterminds :)

Whatever happens tonight, whether Jonsa is the endgame in a straightforward way or not (I think it is gonna be endgame one way or another) just enjoy the show for the last time and remember - you are the best  *looking at Jonsa fam with puppy eyes the way Jon looks at Sansa*

 that girl  was already in love and ready to  commit incest . 

Sansa asking jon if he bent the knee for love or for the north could be perceived as her just wanted to know if he was dumb enough to bend the knee for  love or because he thought that was the only way to save the north....

JON: I can’t.

MELISANDRE: Why?

JON: I swore a vow. I loved another.

MELISANDRE: The dead don’t need lovers. Only the living.

JON: I know. But I still love her.

MELISANDRE: You know nothing, Jon Snow.

5x04 – Jon & Mel scene

————————————————–

Was Yigritte the (only) reason Jon said no to Mel?

Maybe he said no to Mel for the same reason he said no to Ros. And maybe that reason is more than dead lovers or not wanting to father a bastard. I don’t doubt that Mel was strictly speaking of Yigritte, but what was running through Snow’s head?

When I watched that scene initially I was like “okay, poor kid misses Yigritte”.  But Jon’s words are couched and while his delivery is believable, now that we know Jon can be slightly dishonourable and if pol!jon is true, well I wonder. His words sound like excuses now. He even mentions Stannis at one point. His last refuge is “I still love her”. If that really is the reason, why not start with that? 

Enter Sansa.

Jon declares himself Sansa’s protector because Ned would come back and murder him otherwise. I’m not going to explore season 6 much, except to say that: Jon totally loses himself in Sansa upon reuniting with her. He can’t look away. He doesn’t want to. He says he’s tired of fighting and essentially wants to run away with her. He cloaks her. He claims her in every way that came to mind and if Sansa hadn’t interjected with “home” he would have continued to push it as far as she let him.

Later on, Mel watches Sansa gift Jon with a cloak. Then Sansa watches Mel ride out of Jon’s life and she swoops right in. No more running Jon Snow. Sansa was her regular “I don’t know why I did it, I just did, tough cookie Snow, but not really because I’m sorry and oops, here’s my puppy face” self. Jon flits away after assuring that he is not mad even a bit.

Later on, Jon tells her he’s leaving the North.  Sansa accuses Jon of abandoning her. Sansa looks to the side quickly and looks back at him because his face was just “I know honey and I’m sorry”. It was like she, in that moment, realized something. She realized what she said. She realized that Jon “heard”. It was a private moment and she was momentarily embarrassed and flustered. Jon caught her. Quite like she caught him staring at her in 6x04. Except then  Jon wasn’t at all embarrassed to be caught. And here, while she looks on completely flustered, he tells her, in front of everyone, that he is leaving his heart with her. And she is content once again.

So now I view 5x04 differently. I see Jon Snow being unable to succumb to a woman of his own free will. Unlike Yigritte and Dany there was no element of duress, only temptation and seduction. Jon did not have sex with Mel because he did not choose her. There was no motivation there for him, despite the red hair. 

Because for Jon, Sansa is the only woman he will ever willingly want. Dare I say it, the only woman he will actively pursue.
