Who wants to hear great news followed by really, really great news? First of all, let me just shout it from the rooftops that Grey Worm is alive and was not killed, but rather just severely wounded during last week's fight with the Sons of the Harpy. So that alone should immediately bring you a massive sigh of relief. However, Sunday night's episode "Kill the Boy" had an even bigger surprise in store for its dedicated viewers. Grey Worm and Missandei kissed on Game of Thrones and gave supporters of this duo some much-needed hope. Basically, if you didn't already think they'd make an adorable couple, you certainly do now. But let's start from the beginning, shall we?
While Grey Worm was recuperating from his many battle wounds, Missandei never failed to stay by his side, proving just how much she cares for this Unsullied warrior. And when he finally awoke, he admitted to her that his last thoughts (well, at least what he thought were his last thoughts) were of her and how he'd never be able to look upon her again. It was incredibly sweet and showed a vulnerability to this fighter that we've rarely gotten to see before. And his words seemed to have quite the impact on Missandei as well, who leaned in and kissed him right then and there.
Undoubtedly, we can expect massive amounts of fan fiction to be created thanks to this moment. Granted, their relationship would be rather unique, especially given how Grey Worm lacks certain anatomy parts to do, um, certain things. But if that kiss is any indicator, I'm sure they'd be able to provide us with some steamy scenes none the less. And I'm very intrigued to see where things are headed. But will the series make them a permanent couple or are they headed down a more star-crossed lovers path? As of now, it all remains up in the air. But in the meantime, I'm just going to sit back, relax, and re-watch this scene a few more hundred times. BRB.
