These Two 'GoT' Characters Are Reuniting

by Loretta Donelan

Game of Thrones is currently filming, and leaked set photos demand a spoiler alert for those who prefer to keep the HBO show's upcoming Season 7 a mystery. For the rest, pictures of Kit Harrington and Peter Dinklage together appear to indicate that Tyrion and Jon Snow will reunite in Game of Thrones Season 7. The two have been spotted, along with Emilia Clarke‘s Daenerys and some others, filming together on location at a beach in Bilbao, Spain, and, at this point, I think we all want to know what's going on in these pictures.

Tyrion and Jon originally bonded in the show's first season, finding common in their outcast status as a dwarf and a bastard, respectively. The two journeyed to Castle Black together, but, while Tyrion eventually departed, Snow stayed to join the Night's Watch. The characters haven't crossed paths in the show's ensuing five seasons, and they've both been through a lot since they last met. Tyrion has since met Daenerys, who, of course, won't meet Jon Snow until Season 7.

The images from set appear to show Daenerys and Tyrion bidding farewell to Jon Snow as he leaves on a boat. It looks like a somber event, with everyone dressed in black and Tyrion and Daenerys both looking particularly dour. Also present in the scene and in the boat are Ser Davos and Ser Jorah, and none other than Gendry, played by Joe Dempsie, who departed in a rowboat in Season 4 and was presumed dead by many.

Daenerys, at the end of Season 7, was on her way to Westeros, which explains her presence. However, what the unlikely crew of Jorah, Davos, Gendry, and Jon are doing together in a boat is mysterious. What kind of quest are they embarking on remains very mysterious. Additionally, does this mean that Daenerys, Tyrion, and Jon Snow will only spend a short amount of time together before Snow takes off? I certainly hope not.

Game of Thrones is — sniff — wrapping up in two seasons, so it makes sense that characters are coming together and reuniting in the show's penultimate season. Whether you are trying to find as many spoilers as possible or avoiding them like the plague, it definitely looks like there's an exciting and dramatic season coming our way.
