A fair bit happened in the latest episode of Game Of Thrones. Perhaps most notably, Arya Stark (Maisie Williams) finally got it on with blacksmith Gendry (Joe Dempsie).

Given the fact audiences have followed Arya’s storyline since she was a kid, the scene sparked a fair bit of commentary and concern. Google searches for Williams’ age actually spiked in the hours after the episode premiered as viewers came to terms the character is, well, not a child any more (we’ll save you some clicks: Williams herself is 22).
Amid all that hand-wringing, at least one commentator unleashed a spicy take on the matter. Behold, Williams’ co-star and best mate Sophie Turner, who was positively chuffed that Gendry, uh, hop hop hopped into that pussay:

Seeing as Game Of Thrones has spawned a sub-industry of recappers and analysts, it makes sense that one of the show’s own stars would deliver her take on the latest episode. We’re just lucky that Williams’ IRL best friend was there, wine in hand, to provide her take on Arya’s latest character development.
Long may Sansa Stark reign.
