Hasn't too much time passed since she was with him? I mean, she's been to the Wall and a number of houses looking for allies, and Theon has made it to Pyke, Braavos, and Mereen. She'd be about ready to pop by now, you'd think, if it were true.
Spoiler!
Yes, but as my wife pointed out, she's been wearing very bulky clothes of late in the show.

Bran was marked by the Night King, and because of it he and his Wights were able to enter the cave of the Three Eyed Raven which had been warded against them. Do the same magics protect the Wall? If a marked Bran crosses over/through the Wall, does that mean the spells protecting the Wall are broken and the Night King and his hordes cross over as well? [Reply]

What spells protecting the wall? I must have missed this. I thought the wall was the protection. Otherwise you'd just need a magical invisible boundary. [Reply]

In the books the Wall, on top of being miles long and hundreds of feet high, has magical wards preventing the undead from passing through it (since there are gates and hidden passes).
I don't recall there ever being mention of such wards on the show. [Reply]

The magic that guards the Wall is as old as the Wall itself. Not sure if it was the Children that put it there or Bran the Builder himself, but the Wall has always had a mystical barrier keeping out "magical" creatures.

That was really good. Enjoyed their breakdown of the visual elements. I will say that Ser Longhair of House Nerd looked high as fuck, though. Lol [Reply]

If they're going to do a secret Targ reveal that would be a very cool way to do it. Say Jon Snow is a secret Targ. He's opposing Dany in a battle and she zooms down to roast him. We see him bathed in flame for a few seconds, and then he's just standing there with a WTF? face staring at her. And she's hovering in front of him with the same look on her face. It would a fun cliff hanger for the end of this season. [Reply]

Would be much funny if Rhaegal fucks up Drogon for Jon. [Reply]

We already know Jon's not immune to fire, he burned his hands saving Lord Commander Mormont from the zombie in Season 1. [Reply]
