wut? Is she just a fan favorite that isn't heavily related to the plot then...?

answer:

(no real spoilers but it may give hints..?)

Spoiler	+
no, i'd argue that ______ is important to the plot, but as of the last book we haven't seen to what extent. liiiittle more spoilery but still nothing big: Spoiler + as of now, ______ has really only interacted with one other major character

Boc @ 26/6/2014 20:51

And (without telling me what obviously) are there any more big surprises that I've yet to read in ASOS that WILL be in the show? (:

answer:

Spoiler	+
i DOUBT they're cutting _______ entirely from the show. but other than ______, i can't really think of anything major in ASOS that you haven't seen on the show

i'm torn because i hate that you're starting at asos but glad that you're reading it at least, rofl

oh! then nvm, we're all good.

bran is the worst anyway.

more dorne! more greyjoys!

HEY BRIAN AFFC + Just read through the chapter where Aemon wakes up and says "Egg, I dreamed that I was old." Is that where your title comes from? Why does it say PEG?

for boc:

Spoiler	+
it's a reference to that but i'll tell you it later

now that you're in ADWD boc i can tell you about that thing you asked about earlier.

AFFC spoiler:

Spoiler	+
it's a quote my character in wikey's lab game said when he died. he was old and was having flashbacks to his childhood and early adulthood throughout the game, and when he died, he thought he saw his sister, peg. i didn't want to tell you because aemon doesn't die until like 2 sam chapters after he actually says that line.

oh, and yes, i hope....

spoiler regarding curtis' link and boc's prediction:

Spoiler	+
that it's maggy the frog! it might be some dumb bran thing though.

season 5 spoiler

Spoiler	+
actually i think that ended up being incorrect. it's hodor who isn't in this season, but bran probably is.

agreed.

if dylan's read the books, you can click this.

boc probably shouldn't unless you want confirmation/denial about your spoiler

BIG ADWD SPOILER	+
dyl, boc's source is wrong, or at least it's not right YET. the last thing that happens to jon at the end of ADWD is him being stabbed (presumably to death). no mention of him being resurrected, but it's a popular theory. another is that he wargs into ghost like the guy in the prologue does before he dies.

and I also don't see where Martin ever said he plans on extending the series like that title says. He says the complete opposite in the actual quote! (: I definitely wouldn't be surprised though if he did extend it. Where ADWD leaves off there's easily enough room for 3 more 1000 page books, and who knows how much will be wrapped up in TWOW (and how many new characters/plots will be added). But there's very little chance he ever finishes if that happens, unless he defies all odds and lives until 90

i think he's said...

not really a spoiler but i dunno, stuff about future books	+
that he's not adding any new POV characters, at least.

book spoilers but without context doesn't spoil anything:

Spoiler	+
"oh" would be a big hit on FE.

i have no idea what red nose day is but that was amazing

didn't you hear them?

Spoiler	+
for the watch!

in the books they had someone stay "dead" for wayyy longer than in the show.

not really a spoiler, but just being careful

Spoiler	+
at the end of book 2 we're led to believe theon is dead, and then he doesn't show up again at all until book 5

not arguing anything, just an interesting difference
