Robin Arryn
Winter is coming for Robin Arryn. We can only hope. This is a lighter post (I'm not predicting here, only wishing), and if we're lucky, we've already seen the last of Robin Arryn, the insufferable son of the batshit crazy Lysa Arryn, who Petyr Baelish mercifully (for us) punted out the Moon Door. If we're really lucky we'll get to see the bad boy fly, too.
One of the things I think anyone has to admit, is that Game of Thrones (GRRM and the HBO folks) has provided some of the most creepy, crappy, loathsome, hideous, hate-worthy verminous characters in the history of stuff that's (still) legal to watch or read. It was tough watching Sansa in the crush on Joffrey days, turning on Arya and Ned. She was terrible, but after a fashion she showed backbone and endurance that demanded respect even if it didn't foster affection. I'll take Game of Thrones scrogtoids for a thousand, Alex. Answer is: That thing that Robin Arryn contributes outside of creepy shithead annoy tf out of me factor.
NOT A PREDICTION, but it seems if you want to see Robin fly out the Moon Door, you should have a "theory" of how it comes to be. OK, the Seven Kingdoms need stability after the mayhem they've seen with the War of the Five Kings and the war against the Night King and the Army of the Dead, and whatever mayhem comes after the Daenerys gets or doesn't get the Iron Throne. House Arryn and House Stark could be united if Arya marries Robin. Heh. They get married. When the revelers think the marriage is being consummated, Arya has Robin in the High Hall of the Eyrie. She drags him up to the throne and attempts to throw him out the Moon Door, but misses with the first shot. She hops down, drags him back up and hits the shot second time around, after which she can go roam Westeros wild and free like Nymeria. Varys claims the throne, which he immediately renounces to set up an Anarcho-Capitalist arrangement between the Hill Tribes and the people of the Eyrie and everyone lives happily ever after.
