Thats the other dude that thought it was a good idea to execute an ally because said ally murdered an enemy prisonner in his cell. Heres to hoping she will share the same faith Sometimes being a ruler means you need to bend the rules a little bit to appease the masses. These hardline tactics, while just, can easily lead to a rebellion as people start to see you as a totalitarian dictator. TLDR: bitches need to chill. | ||

If you want "order" and you want to show that you'll punish people even if they're politically aligned with you, you don't do it with heavy repression. It was obviously going to fuck her base. I agree with what people said above, about how she's inexperienced and whatnot, but come on now, she should be getting the hang of it by now. | ||

Once again the weakness of the entire Daenyris story line is perfectly exemplified by a weird, totally unbelievable conflict. "Hey we captured this majority slave city. Well, better treat the former slavers equally to the former slaves because reasons" sometime later "Oh look, the former slave owners are rebelling against us, killing our soldiers and terrorizing the former slaves. I guess we could give the former slaves some knives and invite them to solve the problem for us just like they did when they conquered the city for us...but no, Instead let us piss both sides off, because reasons" Instead we get a swords and sandals version of the US occupation of Iraq. just silly. | ||

You have a point but I wouldn't call dispensing justice equally 'heavy repression.' She also isn't working with much of a support structure beyond her military. It's a tough situation, even if it doesn't make for the best TV. | ||

She should've gave mercy, give your people what they want. That's what Caesar would do in the coliseum with deciding if people lived or die, don't just say "fuck you guys ima do it anyway". Honor the wishes of the people. Finally Arya is going to be trained. Inb4 Syrio is chilling in the building and is like "ARYA?!" | ||

It's been going on for fucking 4 seasons now and she hasn't improved at all. Every fucking episode, CONFLICTED WITH SOME DECISION, GET A LOT OF INPUT FROM PEOPLE AROUND ME, MAKE DECISION THAT IS SHIT. | ||

shes in a big pickle, when the dragon came back i thought it was cause she killed that guy and like its drawn to death and killing??? idk lol but then it flew away  if it stood by her side i doubt anyone would mess with her. Im worried for like everyone this season seems like everyone is making stupid moves, cersi, danny, jaime, the lady who was with oberyn, and the whole situation with sansa and littlefinger/briane is soooo bad i even feel like we're not going to get that team of danny, spider, tyrion hopefully they make it there before danny screws up even more. Seems like arya is the only one with something going for her but i dont get why jaqen didnt just reveal himself in the first place??? was it to see if she was ready to kill (with those 3 guys in the ally?) | ||
