The night the bird had come from Winterfell, Eddard Stark had taken the girls to the castle godswood, - The heart tree there was a great oak, its ancient limbs overgrown with smokeberry vines; they knelt before it to offer their thanksgiving, as if it had been a weirwood. Sansa drifted to sleep as the moon rose, Arya several hours later, curling up in the grass under Ned's cloak. - Eddard, AGOT

Stansas spent years (literally over a decade) saying that Arya couldn't have [xyz] endgame because it belongs to Sansa just for George to casually say that he planned on killing her and there's only a chance he might change his mind. All those theories destroyed on a random Thursday and the gag is George probably doesn't think it's surprising info because it's obvious to anyone who read the books. But tumblr/reddit user "asongofsansaandsansa" told me she was the single most important character in the books and Arya was only her prop. There's levels to this shit, and we tried to tell you being a main character doesn't make you a key character.

All that time spent complaining about Arya fancasts, fanart, and theories when you should've been worried about whether Sansa will even survive TWoW

By the sea in Braavos, Arya always thought of her brother.

She would recall the day when her brother gave her needle. That was a long time ago.

I’m officially rebranding my long-form analysis and book discussion content. What used to live under Dragon in Winterfell is now The Loreweaver.

To mark the rebrand, I’ve released a new long-form episode:

“Why Arya Stark Will Not Sail West of Westeros”

This episode breaks down, using direct book quotes and textual evidence, why Arya’s show ending doesn’t align with her arc in A Song of Ice and Fire.
