^^ After he drops her off, he is following her, and I personally thought that he was wild, but loyal to her at that point. I think its implied that she has a strong connection with Drogon. She shouldn't be able to control him at all. All the old Targaryens used spells to bind the dragons to them. Her and Drogon are so bonded that she can ride him without using any types of spells. I just would have liked to see a little bit more than her going out and fetching a stray dragon.

Yeah, but this is a TV show, and she's The Mother of Dragons. People don't want it to drag on for the equivalent of 700 pages while introducing 15 new houses and 120 new characters. "Drogon is like her child and he can be moody" is what I figure everyone thought. i think theyve handled it well

i mean there was this





and a couple more things. you keep hammering the shit in like a dozen times that hes a wild beastly dragon and dangerous as fuck and unpredictable people will just think their intelligence is being insulted.

is it a deviation from the books that she now seems to have more control over him through this special bond without needing binding spells and all that? who the hell knows. I dont even think GRRM knows.

It's like the direwolves and the Starks. They were there for a reason, destiny. Each is bonded to their owner and deeply connected. Same with these dragons and dany, just takes time to fully realize the bond and how to control it. In the books when drogon and dany fly off for weeks or whatever, she could sort of control him, make him turn right or left but ultimately he went where the fuck he wanted, but she seemed to be making some progress. The show just took the next jump which I'm sure will happen in the next book, now if that's due to magic or whatever idk, but I got the sense she was learning how to control him albeit slowly.

Weird, I was walking around at work last night and basically thought exactly what you did about the show advancing and thinking they just gutted the 4th book completely, but could still explore it now to stall for GRRM to get his shit together. Also think Lady Stoneheart could still enter the picture as well.


And someone brought up Tommen going against his mom at the trial. I think that's going to happen too. I was thikning a bit ago "the valonqar" which means "the little brother" in Valyrian could either be the hound (that'd be a bit of a stretch) but could also be Tommen somehow (the little brother of Joffrey). I think there's going to be some kind of big event at the trial, and somehow either the hound is going to strangle Cersei, or the hound is going to lose to the mountain, and somehow Tommen is going to strangle Cersei himself. Maybe because after she wins the trial she still massacres the sparrow anyway, and he tries to throw her in a dungeon and she reveals that she's going to tell everybody he's nothing but an incest baby, then he chokes her to death? I dont fucking know lol

That was me but I changed my mind and I'm now 100% back on the cleganebowl hype train.

Yeah, you can't think of the dragons as pets (specifically dogs) because they aren't that. They're basically children and they have mood swings and all that shit. So she went away for ten minutes and now she is controlling him, ok, cool she is the mother of dragons, her son is older now, a bit more mature so he isn't prone to acting out like he used to. And the interaction the Imp had with the dragons shows their intelligence. The second one basically tells the Imp to unlock him as well (watch his body language.)
