If Soulmates Don't Exist, Then Who They Are?

If soulmates don't exist, then who they are?

um.

Yes. Thank-you Sansa for:

1) Lying to Jon for unknown reasons all season long.

2) Pissing off every house on-screen on that Northern tour.

3) Shitting on one (of two) people who got the Starks some of the only help for their army during that god-forsaken Northern tour which was 62 more people than you got, Sansa.

4) Trying to first a) strong-arm and guilt-trip a recently killed, newly resurrected, and freshly traumatized Jon into risking his life in a battle for a castle he was repeatedly reminded by Sansa's mother and society at large he had no place in; b) trying to make him force the wildlings he saved into forming an army for that battle; c) and then, when Jon told Sansa no, invoking saving Rickon to push Jon into saying yes; and finally, d) telling Jon on the night before that battle, to give up Rickon for dead* (when Rickon was the only reason why Jon is fighting at all).

Jon (a bastard) and Sansa (a daughter/married to a Lannister and then to a Bolton) just standing by and letting Ned Stark's trueborn son and heir getting murdered by Ramsay Bolton. That'll look good. Really politically savvy there, Sansa.

5) Withholding an offer of an entire f*cking army from Jon and his forces who'd be risking their lives on the battle field against far greater forces than their own. They develop a strategy because their army is so small and believe this is their best viable move against their enemy. Sansa huffs and puffs angrily in the background over not being sent an engraved invitation for her exalted opinion ("Don't do what he wants you to do!!") despite never not needing said invitation before during previous war councils (6x05) or the Northern tour (6x07) where she led talks. OBVIOUS SEXISM HAPPENING HERE OBVIOUSLY. Jon asks Sansa, "When will we have more men?!" Sansa says nothing: not of the offer Littlefinger made of the Vale army, not that she had written to accept said offer, nada.

Thousands of wildlings and likely a big chunk of Mormonts die. Rickon lays smashed and dead on the ground. A bloodied and battered Jon is suffocating under a crush of bodies. A spotless and fresh Sansa and LF ride in together atop clean white horses as the Knights of the Vale crush the Bolton host.... you know, after loads of damage has already been done.

THANKS SANSA.

Personally, I think Jon should have thanked Sansa by revealing her season 6 activities that occurred behind his back to his new Northern vassals when he was crowned king, the contents of their pre-battle conversation (ie. Sansa urging Jon to let Rickon die) and then let the Northern lords yell it out before deciding the loudest voice chooses her.... uh, "reward".

A bit of a laugh with a bigger side of intellectual dishonesty

Now who would have a problem with this?!

meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!

The thing about blatant lies, intellectual dishonesty, and deliberate misrepresentation for the most superficial of reasons with no respect for accuracy or the canon material (in this case, the show's scripts) is that they get to a place just under my throat and form this pressure where I just want to topple a dresser onto something loud and exceptionally glassware.

So with that said, let's look at some comments from the Jonsa community!

Oh great, now we know where this is going.

AND GUYS:

And this next Jonsa is...

Neither this Jonsa or these Jonsa posters can figure out why Jonerys fans and others would have a problem with this gifset that is deliberately misrepresenting the Jonerys ship or their favourite characters? Or why people would have a problem with Pol!Jon, a wholly misogynistic, sexist, prejudiced, backwards theory that makes no narrative or strategic sense? A theory that turns Dany into an evil bimbo and Jon into the new Littlefinger while Sansa stays perfectly perfect in every way? Neither view or direction was supported on the show, yet the latest Jonsa has the boldness to use the words 'canon' in connection with this gifset. "Canon moments" the gif maker is deliberately misrepresenting and presenting as one of Jon's false smiles -- as if Dany is Littlefinger or Ramsay to Jon. Oh, how Jonsas only wish... However! :) I can answer the latest Jonsa's questions -- which delightfully seem to be written as if they are already in defence of this Jonsa contextualization:

Why would Jon be so attached to an uncle and grandfather he never met? In contrast, Jon has met and gotten to know Dany (who is his paternal aunt btw) over the course of at least several months to about a year. Depending on how much time he's spent with Dany, Jon may know her better than Sansa given Jon and Sansa didn't know each other well until they reconnected in season 6.

Why would Jon smirk in defiance as the party who crucially needs help and needs help ASAP? Is the vanity of the North really that important? (And yeah, I will call it vanity because at this point, fucking independence <<<<<<<<< ice apocalypse)

Why would Jon be uncomfortable with Dany's affection? Canonically, he returned her affection -- in the 7x05 goodbye scene, Jon is trying to focus on his mission to destroy the Night King and he's pushing his feelings away (ie. "There's no time for [romance]"). In the 7x07 scene, Jon and Dany are having one of those rare rare rare happy moments on Game of Thrones while commiserating over their circumstances.

Why would Jon smile over being unable to get Dany to forget about Cersei rather than a shared gallows-humour joke between himself and Dany?

Additionally, why is Sansa allowed to be worried about Cersei in 7x01 and criticize Jon for being "too focused on the Night King", but Dany can't still be worried about Cersei even though Dany is the one who is in active war with Cersei?

Lastly, why can't Jonsas just keep their hands to themselves and to their ship?

This is why I hate Jonsas.

POL JON RIDDLES

HELP ME OUT GUYS

Riddle #1: IT'S GREED AND TYRANNY WHEN DANY WANTS TO TAKE BACK HER FAMILY'S DYNASTY but it's righteous and right and empowering when the Starks (Sansa) want to take back the North. THE TARGARYENS ARE THE REAL COLONIZERS NO DOUBLE STANDARDS HERE WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT.

Riddle #2: Dany's love is cheap compared to her greed for the Iron Throne!!!11

...So why does Jon need to sexually use, abuse, manipulate, and fake his love for the power crazed Dany ala Pol!Jon to steal her armies and dragons if her worthless love is so cheap then...? It's not like sex is going to help out Jon's lacking martial forces much or add sense to the non-sensical Pol!Jon. Or what, does that not fulfill the Jonsa teen scene dreams of sweet sweet betrayal for thy true love Sansa?

Riddle #3:

"It's preposterous to think Jon, who has always tried to do the right thing, would betray(or even kill) his aunt just for shits and giggles."

So what is Jon, Jonsas? An uber asshole who is Sansa's personal garbage disposal? And will callously abuse, use, and manipulate a rape victim? Or does he have a conscience? Because yeah, I think the the two are mutually exclusive here. How does a decent person with a conscience (who Jon is supposed to be) do this to... anyone? Why would Jon do this to Dany? What has Dany done to warrant this? Conquer? Robb Stark, Jon's brother and best friend. Stannis Baratheon, the claimant Jon supported in ADWD. The Young Dragon, Jon's idol. How dare Dany want to take back her family's dynasty! Just like the Starks!! All the Northern houses love the Starks and want them back! (Except the ones who don't) The Skagosi too!! (Except they keep rebelling when the Starks try to force them to submit...) But seriously, since when does Jon hate Targaryen conquests? Or... Targaryens? But I digress, let's look at Pol!Jon. In contrast, Pol!Jon hates the young conquerer Dany! How dare Dany conquest!! Pol!Jon doesn't idolize the Dorne-invading dragon-riding Young Dragon!! Eww!!! But here's the thing: nothing about Pol!Jon makes Jon the hero as this particular Jonsa likes to argue. Everything makes him the asshole -- from every angle. Jon can't be a hero performing 100% villainous, unnecessary, and stupid stupid actions all so he can dispose of one girl (Dany) so he can go ahead and marry another girl (Sansa) who looked down on him in childhood for wholly classist reasons. (No no, no misogyny here!) Everything Jon does in this scenario justifies Dany (or Dany's supporters) going to war against him -- and the North -- because it's treason. How can Jon realistically get away with that. How would GRRM let Jon realistically get away with that. For Jonsa?

It doesn't matter how much of an asshole you are dying for Dany to be, it won't make Pol!Jon any less of an asshole in his characterization or actions toward Dany.

And if Pol!Jon hates Dany so much that he's willing to abuse, use, and callously exploit a rape victim when her love for him is apparently so "cheap" (because apparently, these are your versions of them), it seems like he is doing extreme stuff for shits and giggles -- and to make the situation far far worse (handing Dany a reason to go to war against the North, intentions to start another civil war despite multiple wars going on and the North's lacking resources, making an enemy of a powerful queen and during a time of probable desperation...).

I'd call that psychotic. (On another note, I'm a Jon stan but... uh, there are times in ASOIAF when Jon does not do quite the right thing...)

I know Aegony has been theorized as endgame ship for a reason but imo those are the same people who have grossly mischaracterized something about Dany and Jon.

The irony.

They are the same ones who have denied Dark Dany and insist how her greed for the IT was actually just her doing her duty as the last Targ and that Sansa was the power hungry one actually.

Hilariously, this happened in the same show Jonsa never became close to canon (not matter what Jonsa conspiracy theories say), the same show in which Sansa kept risking the life of her "beloved" brother Jon and betrayed him multiple times (funny, Dany never did that...), and the same show of which GRRM has repeatedly said his ending would be different. Oops :) And Jonsas wonder why the fandom has a problem with them.

Ahh I saw requests were open again and I love your work so much!!! It would be really cool to see Jon is Essos style clothing and Daenerys in Northern style clothing. A little clothing swap between the two 🙈🫶🏼
