Does Daenerys go down with her last dragon before this ends? Jon looks setup to get the throne. He came back to life for a reason. Sorry if this has been covered but I can't bring myself to read through pages with Remi doing his thing.

Jon sitting on the throne seems to be a betrayal of the entire concept of this show.

Yeah, dude has done nothing really to play the game. I suppose given Dumb & Dumber's love of subversion that may end up being the point, but the dude looks like he would be a pretty soft ass ruler and couldn't imagine him surviving all the politics and intrigue that comes with being King.

His main reason for being brought back to life appears to be Dany so think the resolution of his storyline is ultimately intertwined with hers.

His main purpose was less about Dany, more about defeating the NK. Now he's nothing more than a sad sack face.

So if we ignore the spoilers then who do people think will sit on IT?

At this stage seems like Sansa pulling the strings. From battle of the bastards, to killing LF to putting wheels in motion for Dany to die, seems like she assumed the LF role.

Gendry, the Lord of Storms End.

I think Sansa stays in the North and becomes Queen of the North
In a bizarre twist of fate, Sansa gets eaten by the Wolf Pack while traveling down to KL after Cersei is killed.

Drogon lives, and carries away Dany's dead body

I meant from a meta perspective. Since Arya killed the NK then it seems his actual role was to be Dany's undoing. His role with respect to the NK was ultimately a red herring.

Well I guess if Dany and Jon out of picture, he is next in line. Although seems like even mpre of a cupcake than Jon given his teenage profession of love to Arya.

Who is the one that gathered all the people necessary to fight the NK, and convinced them of the threat he posed?

EDIT: You know why...

Yes I agree but in the grand scheme of things the NK was a diversion. Utter waste of time. Jon's main role in the story that matters is as a threat to Dany.

Lannister’s got their ass kicked and it meant nothing and everybody knew it. That’s how inconsequential it was. Also no they did not get their ass kicked at battle of the bastards. They completely, forgive me I don’t know what else to call it, out schemed Jon and had them by the balls until LF showed up which they didn’t / couldn’t account for. And the fact that the starks were able to completely destroy the Lannister’s on the battlefield and still wind up on the brink of extinction is exactly why the starks don’t deserve the throne. They don’t get KL. They’re not good at back room politics and treachery, they’re too loyal and noble for their own good while houses like the Lannister’s had a field day with them. And honestly, I don’t think you can say they’re gonna get their ass kicked for sure. Dany could get gun shy because of those dragon killers she has or Sansa could pull some sketchy shit.
How exactly have the Starks been on "brink of extinction"? Sure, Rob and Catelyn died at the red wedding, but by my last count, we're two shows from the conclusion of the series and we're still seeing Arya, Sansa, Bran, and Jon (part Stark, raised with them) as major parts of the show. Not to mention Theon, who was raised with the Stark family and is only dead because he completed his character arc and charged the Night King one episode ago. Hell, even Ghost is still around.

There's three Lannisters left and one isn't even on their side (Tyrion). Their patriarch is dead, killed by his own son. They've done a hell of a job benefitting from others' schemings in this show, and sometimes just flat out luck and poor decisions by opponents (hey, let's bring a wight to Cersei, who won't change her mind anyway, and lose a dragon in the process!); let's not pretend they haven't.

Tywin - Murdered by his own son that he hated.

Tyrion - The only sensible one in the bunch but still stupid enough to think he can win his psycho sister over.

Jamie - Fucked up his alleged redemption arc because he wants to **** his sister.

Cersei - Drives everyone who loves her away including the brother she is fucking and her own son who would rather murder himself rather than have her as a mother.

Joffery - Piece of shit product of incest that was so disliked that people celebrated when he died horribly.

Myrcella - Mother is so hated that the place she thinks of as home ends up poisoning her.

Tommen - Good lad so despises the horror that is his mother that as noted above he happily murders himself rather than continue on as a Lannister.

Unborn Lannister Baby - Will mercifully be spared growing up in this terrible piece of shit family when Cersei hopefully dies. The irony is by virtue of not being born and raised in this family, immediately becomes the best Lannister of the bunch by default.

In short, pretty sad when your never to be born child represents the best your family has to offer.

I don't even really care who sits on the throne now. What I really want to see is Westeros have some peace. Which means Jon and Dany should both die because they are, without question, fucking retards.

The people of Westeros deserve better than those two dumbasses.

If you had asked last season I would have said Tyrion would have made the best ruler, but apparently Jon and Dany's terminal stupidity is infectious and now Tyrion has it.

I think Sansa stays in the North and becomes Queen of the North

Sansa is the only lord/lady left who hasn't gone full moron. Seriously Sansa and Arya are the only main characters left who haven't turned completely moronic (that's ignoring the weirdly stupid and poorly plotted 'scheme' they had for trapping Littlefinger, or whatever their feigned stupid squabbling was last season)
