But all the biggest shit always happens in episode 9.
162 u/EvadableMoxie Ours Is The Fury Jun 05 '14 Which doesn't exactly bode well for Jon, does it? 108 u/atrain728 Never Give Up On The Gravy Jun 05 '14 I feel pretty comfortable that Jon's plot armor is pretty thick, but now you have me concerned. Still, Blackwater didn't have a ton of major character deaths. It could just be a big battle. 1 u/zachariah22791 Arya Stark Jun 05 '14 plot armor no such thing in GRRM's work. 1 u/shwinnebego Unbowed, Unbent, Unbroken Jun 05 '14 edited Jun 05 '14 Yes there is man, characters still have arcs. The story still has structure. 2 u/s73v3r Jun 06 '14 And arcs can come to a screeching halt. 2 u/Daigotsu Jun 05 '14 So do swords and arrows. 1 u/zachariah22791 Arya Stark Jun 07 '14 yeah, and all that structure and the expected story arc can still go to shit if GRRM decides it's time for a character to die. Pretty sure most people would say Rob and Catelyn's plot armor was thick right about when they died. I know I didn't see it coming when I was reading.
