Game of Thrones season 8 finale: Twitter reacts to *that* death in episode 6
No... not like this!
Did we see that coming. Kinda, but damn. Game of Thrones is over and despite what you may have thought of the episode as a whole, it's big moment was near perfect.
Spoilers incoming.
Yep, after a pep talk from Tyrion Lannister. Daenerys Targaryen just got a knife in the gut from Jon Snow in one of the grimmest murder-kisses in TV history.
She will always be my Queen then URGH. Death.

That was bad enough, but the worst part -- 100% -- was Drogon's mourning period. Which involved a lot of fire and a complete melting of the Iron Throne.
Damn Drogon mourning has got me feeling some kinda way. Wish it didn't have to be this way #GameOfThronesFinale pic.twitter.com/qq0PwXrjlc
