I'm so used to giving and now I get to receive.
Even though she couldn't bring herself to kill him, and took him off her list, she did leave him to die. Her feelings about him are complicated.
And yes, I literally screamed at my TV in this moment.
We see Jon in protective big brother mode around Bran a lot during the first episode of Season 1. Jon is devastated by Bran's fall, and especially the fact that he has to leave for the Wall while Bran is still unconscious.
The emotions can't even be dampened (too much) by Bran's weirdness.
Remember, they were married (maybe still are married??? Although the marriage was never consummated).
You know, when Joffrey was murdered, Sansa escaped, and Tyrion was arrested.
Sansa apologises for leaving him there, but despite the past, both acknowledge it's good to see the other survived. In a wonderful moment, Tyrion talks about how everyone always underestimated Sansa — and now most of them are dead.
Jon and Arya were closest to each other out of all their siblings.
SOB!
He calls her out on it, and she characteristically gives no fucks. The Hound calls her a "cold little bitch" and says, "Guess that's why you're still alive." There are no embraces here and no real warmth, but you definitely get the impression that underneath the surface, these two really do care about each other. The Hound, at least, is glad to see Arya has survived.
It's ADORABLY awkward.
Neither of them knew if the other was alive for a long time, so it's extra lovely to see them reuniting onscreen.
Same, Arya, same.
From the look of the trailers, Arya is wielding this weapon in the Battle of Winterfell in Episode 3.
We need to see MORE OF THIS before they all die, okay?
Jon gives Sam one of those tight, eyes-shut hugs he's so good at when it comes to his family. He's surprised to find Sam at Winterfell, and then even more surprised to learn the news that Dany actually killed Sam's father and brother in Season 7.
So yeah, the whole reunion aspect gets a little bit sidetracked here. WHAT A SCENE THOUGH.
The two quickly part ways, though, as Yara heads back to the Iron Islands to retake them while Euron is in King's Landing, and Theon requests permission to head back to Winterfell to fight for the Starks. He's really embracing Jon's words about being both a Greyjoy and a Stark, and it's wonderful. Less wonderful: the knowledge that this is probably the last time Theon and Yara will see each other! SOB.
Jaime was doing it to protect Cersei and their children after Bran witnessed the twins having sex. After Bran woke up, having permanently lost the use of his legs, he couldn't remember what caused his fall. Now he's the Three-Eyed Raven, of course, he's no doubt had a peek at the truth — and by the look on his face, he's ready to confront Jaime about it.
Whatever happens next will be super interesting. Jaime's whole arc has been about his path back to honor and redemption — and a reconciliation with Bran will be crucial for that. BRING ON NEXT WEEK.
There are still a couple of reunions we need to see: JON AND GHOST most importantly, but also Brienne and Jaime, Sansa and the Hound, and Sansa and Theon. I can't wait.
