1. Jon and Daenerys kick off a relationship

“Beyond the Wall” sold Daenerys and Jon as a couple hard, even before they had their little moment while he was shirtless and recovering. Tyrion even out and out claimed that Jon has it bad for the Mother of Dragons! All that discussion about getting an heir seemed like particularly heavy-handed foreshadowing. Daenerys bringing up her human-child-free status to Jon also definitely felt like a relationship disclaimer, and the couple that negotiates these kinds of things together stays together, right?

Things are moving very quickly between them, and it wouldn’t surprise us if they continued moving at that same pace.

Spoilers:

Rumor has it that we’ll get to see more of Kit Harington with very little clothing on, although this time not for the purposes of recovering in non-frozen clothing, and Emilia Clarke also stripping down as well.

Mutually. On a boat. To, ah … share body heat.

We guess that dating doesn’t really happen in Westeros, but it would certainly help if Daenerys or Jon bought the other dinner first.

Spoilers end.

Next: Game of Thrones season 7, episode 6 recapped and reviewed

Hey, that means that Missandei and Daenerys will have something to talk about and compare! That might have to wait until season 8 of Game of Thrones, though. For now, let’s focus on the finale of season 7.
