ASOS, JON XII

Bran developing a friendship with Devan seaworth would be cool if Davos sticks with the Starks after Stannis and Shireen's death, also maybe edric storm, rollam westerling and dickon tarly

Arya with one of the mormonts also Meera given the similarities

Sansa with Wylla

Edmure and Willas

Brynden Tully and Wyman Manderly

I'm hoping that Dany will form a bond with every girl who had a tough time and is around her age. Aside from Arya & Sansa, I'd like to see her interact with Brienne, Asha, Jeyne Poole, Meera etc. Please Martin give us all the positive female relationship you haven't shown us so far. And ofc I really want to see her meeting and teaming up with Tyrion.

Bran Stark and Devan Seaworth could be introduced and become friends since both are sweet kids. Can we also throw Lyanna Mormont here? In her letter she showed respect and loyalty towards the Starks so I'm sure she would be thrilled to be friends with future head of House Stark. Also, I hope sweet Robin survives and meets his youngest cousins ( Bran and Rickon) because poor kid seems in need of some friends.

Sansa and Arya need to meet the Manderly sisters and their sister of law, Jeyne, as well.

For Sansa, I'd be interested to see her interacting with her uncle Edmure and his wife Roslyn.

As for Arya, she needs to meet Meera, Alys and the Sand Snakes. And while I know that Ironborn don't get along with Northerners, I need Arya and Asha to interact. She should also meet her uncle Brynden Tully and let him be the one to train her in order to be ready for the The last Battle. That would be an ideal mentorship, imo.

Even on the chapter where Viserys finally dies, Daenerys continues to be submissive to her older brother until a specific event, which I'll further discuss later. This poor girl is raised only by her abusive brother and is taught that she owes him obedience and loyality because he's the true king and her only relative. What is more, for years he has threaten her that if she disobeys him, she'll "wake the dragon" in him. And by waking the dragon he means that he'll abusive her both emotionally and physically (sometimes even sexually). Viserys has no shame to use abuse towards his little sister when he's in a fool mood and he always let her know that it's her own fault ( as many abusers do with their victims).

Look how Dany reacts when she finds out that Viserys tried to stole her eggs:

For a moment Dany was so shocked she had no words. "My eggs … but they're mine, Magister Illyrio gave them to me, a bride gift, why would Viserys want … they're only stones …"

"The same could be said of rubies and diamonds and fire opals, Princess … and dragon's eggs are rarer by far. Those traders he's been drinking with would sell their own manhoods for even one of those stones, and with all three Viserys could buy as many sellswords as he might need."

Dany had not known, had not even suspected. "Then … he should have them. He does not need to steal them. He had only to ask. He is my brother … and my true king."

She's willing to give away her eggs to her brother if he asks her to. She even try to justify it by saying that he's her brother and her king. This isn't Dany giving away a pretty present she got, she's willing to give away those eggs which brought her comfort when she was at her lowest when she first joined the Dothraki. It shows that there is almost nothing that Dany wouldn't give to Viserys if he asked her no matter how dear it was to her.

Continuing her conversation with Ser Jorah she explains that Viserys is all the family she has left:

"He is your brother," Ser Jorah acknowledged.

"You do not understand, ser," she said. "My mother died giving me birth, and my father and my brother Rhaegar even before that. I would never have known so much as their names if Viserys had not been there to tell me. He was the only one left. The only one. He is all I have."

Poor Dany, for thirteen years she only family she got was an older brother who often abused her.

When Viserys enters Vaes Dothrak and draws his sword - something that is forbidden within the city according to Dothraki laws- Dany tries to make him see reason and even offers him her eggs which she believes that could calm him down. This time she's terrified both of and for him.

"The blade … you must not," she begged him. "Please, Viserys. It is forbidden. Put down the sword and come share my cushions. There's drink, food … is it the dragon's eggs you want? You can have them, only throw away the sword."

However, the moment Viserys threatens her belly with his sword, the narrative stops refering to him as Daenerys' brother. That's because he's no longer threatening only Dany but her unborn baby as well. Her mother instict kicks in and she won't allow Viserys to abuse her child like he did with her. The moment he puts her unborn son in harm while he's threatening her, Viserys crosses the line and there is no turning back. He's no longer her brother or her king daand she feels neither obendiance nor loyalty towards him.

The sword point pushed through her silks and pricked at her navel. Viserys was weeping, she saw; weeping and laughing, both at the same time, this man who had once been her brother.

Viserys keeps being referred as "the man who had been her brother" until his death.

"What did he say?" the man who had been her brother asked her, flinching.

When the sun of her life reached her, Dany slid an arm around his waist. The khal said a word, and his bloodriders leapt forward. Qotho seized the man who had been her brother by the arms

At the last, Viserys looked at her. "Sister, please … Dany, tell them … make them … sweet sister …"

When the gold was half-melted and starting to run, Drogo reached into the flames, snatched out the pot. "Crown!" he roared. "Here. A crown for Cart King!" And upended the pot over the head of the man who had been her brother

"Your brother Jaime keeps losing battles." He gave Sansa an angry look as if it was her fault. "He's been taken by the Starks and we've lost Riverrun and now her stupid brother is calling himself a king."

ACOK - SANSA I

"Viserys said once that it was my fault, for being born too late".[...]

"If I had been born more timely, he said, Rhaegar would have married me instead of Elia, and it would have come out differently. If Rhaegar had been happy in his wife, he would not have needed that Stark girl."

Ι was thinking what lays ahead on Dany's journey for the next asoiaf book. Last time she appeared she was in the Dothraki Sea discovered by Khal Jhaqo's khalasar.

As much as I'd like her to give him and his ko Mago a painful death for what they did to poor Eroeh from her very first chapter I doubt this will be the case based on this Martin's interview:

If Mago becomes a recurring character that probably means that Dany will stay with the khalasar for quite some time.

There is a part on her vision of the House of Undying which hasn't be fulfilled yet which shows old clones worshipping her. I suspect that the khalasar will take her to Vael Dothrak - similarly how it was done on the tv show-.

Here is the part of the prophecy which mentions that place:

Beneath the Mother of Mountains, a line of naked crones crept from a great lake and knelt shivering before her [...]

Now, Vaes Dorthak is located beneath the Mother of Mountains and near the lake "The Womb of the World". The only permanent citizens of this city are the Dosh khaleen a group of widows of Khals. Daenerys was afraid that the other Khals would force her to join the Dosh khaleen back in ACOK. As for the Dosh khaleen themselves, they made the prophesy that Dany's son would be "the stallion that mounts the world" the Khal to unite all Dothraki.

So what if they were partly right to speculate that a child of Dany would be their prophesied leader but they were wrong predicting it would be Rhaego? What if instead it's Drogon or all three dragons of Dany's? That would actually make Dany also the prophesied leader because the dragons are a part of hers/share a unique connection with her.

A place where a three years old should get over his fear of direwolves because “winter is coming”:

"Is he afraid?" Ned asked."

A little," she admitted. "He is only three."

Ned frowned. "He must learn to face his fears. He will not be three forever. And winter is coming."

Little boys have to look at their father’s executing traitors:

Bran's bastard brother Jon Snow moved closer. "Keep the pony well in hand," he whispered. "And don't look away. Father will know if you do."

Bran kept his pony well in hand, and did not look away.
