An Explanation, And 21 Reactions To That Big ‘Game of Thrones’ Reveal.

So, last night’s Game Of Thrones confirmed something pretty gigantic. It was a reveal over 20 years in the making, and if you didn’t catch it — it’s because it was done in the most unceremonious way possible.

Basically, in that scene with Sam and Gilly — where he’s annoyed at having to read about windows and sh**s — Gilly says something really interesting before getting cut off by Sam’s mansplaining:

So um… “Ragger” is Rhaegar Targaryen. He annulled his wife Elia Martel and married “someone else.” That someone else is Lyanna Stark. Rhaegar and Lyanna are Jon Snow’s real parents, and they were married.

Meaning…

Jon Snow is a legitimate Targaryen, not a bastard, and the rightful heir to the throne. If you need more info you can go here. The rest of us are going to continue FREAKING THE F*** OUT.
