I just see these things as cats, kind of, and owning four rescues I know that we are barley in control and they decide what they are going to do, especially the Maine Coon types . BUT, I think there is zero argument that Dany and the dragons are linked at a mother-child level which is awesome, and terrifying, and I think the whole story changed when that monster killed her "child". If you can get armor on a cat you can get armor on a dragon. Although I would focus the armor on their breast and belly and not their back.

Thanks Merc, your posts are so straight-thinking and very rational. And yes, you are right. They are much like cats in certain ways. I can see in the dragons (much like cats) their wilful and independent natures. Dany of course raised them from eggs, so yes, on some level, her dragons (children) share this deep, but mystical bond.This certainly doesn't mean though that she is always able to have full control over them. But they seem to understand and obey her, when she needs them the most...and just like cat's...they usually don't stray too far away from home. Also, cats can be rather choosy to whom they give their affection to. If they do not like you, they will snub you. If anything, Jon Snow should have felt rather privileged when Drogon warmed up to him. I thought that was a truly beautiful moment .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, but guess what we forgot...the Night King will be riding the other dragon. He will now be able to soar above the other two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Careful_perspective Posted August 23, 2017 #2035 Share Posted August 23, 2017 I want to believe that they will put armor on the dragon but they make **** choices in that regard. I can remember my disappointment last year during the battle of the b******* at how the giant had no weapon except his hands. I understand it isnt easy to forge a giant weapon but they could have cut down a damn tree and had him using that. Like swinging a telephone pole. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does a normal armor even protect from the White Walker ice weapons? I personally doubt it. We'd need a dragon-sized Valyian steel armor. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExpandMyMind Posted August 26, 2017 #2049 Share Posted August 26, 2017 Was re-watching the first episode of this season and I noticed this in a book Sam is reading: That's Littlefinger's dagger. I wonder what significance there might be. Think they might have just been foreshadowing Arya getting the blade or does the blade have more significance than that? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder what significance there might be. Think they might have just been foreshadowing Arya getting the blade or does the blade have more significance than that? Yeah, there seems to be a lot of intricacy surrounding this blade. And I thought it ironic at the time, when Littlefinger gifted it to Bran, as it was the same knife used to try and assassinate him, in which Littlefinger is suspected of being behind. I take it that this blade has been around for a long while, and has fallen into different hands over the course of time. I hope we find out soon just what the significance is (besides it being able to kill white walkers) just what other mystery it holds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
