Oh my lord it finally happened. The incest sex. They did it. The hot people who are very, very related got naked and lay on top of each other for some sexy eye starring time.
Kit Harington has a very cute butt.
Please nobody tell me he used a body double; I’ll be devastated.
The Game of Thrones season finale might have given us what we’d been hoping for – incest sex – but reminded us, literally as they got naked, that it really was incest sex. Not normal hot sex. Super extra related sex.
Bran literally narrated the scene to finally confirm what we’ve pretty much known for ages: that Jon Snow is the son of Rhaegar Targaryen and Lyanna Stark, making Dany his aunt. Oh, and his real name is Aegon Targaryen VI. Jon suits him better, tbh.
Still, let’s all stop pretending that we haven’t been rooting for incest for seasons now.
Kit Harintgon and Emilia Clarke, who play our two favourite Targaryens, have weighed in on filming their game-changing fuck.
Speaking to EW, Harington said that he wouldn’t shut up about perfecting the ~sexual tension~, which tbh I’m quite okay with.
“Usually you go into a movie and meet [your costar] for the first time and you develop that chemistry over that time. But if you’ve known somebody for seven years and shared this incredible journey in your own lives together … we’re both kind of freaking out about it. I would be like, ‘What’s the sexual tension in this scene?’ and she’s like, ‘Stop talking about sexual tension!’ It’s a unique experience to be in as an actor and you know the world is watching.”
Clarke agreed, and told him to just make sexy eyes.
“Yeah [I would say], ‘Would you just stop? Just give me some sexy eyes, don’t keep talking about sexual chemistry all the time,’” and added about the scene itself: “I love that when we get to the saucy stuff it’s a beautiful acceptance of a wordless … yep.”
Both of them were obviously cagey about how their characters upon finding out they’re related, but Harington did say it could go either way.
“That part of it, I can’t predict. It could be them walking off into the sunset. It could be them killing each other.”
Ideally, they’ll walk off into the sunset. Game of Thrones doesn’t give a fuck about our ideas, though, so they’ll probably end up in some tragic tale, still in love with each other but unable to be together because of ‘morals’ or whatever. Ugh.
