This Tense ‘GoT’ Moment Is Now A Hilarious Meme And It’s Straight Dragonfire

If you watched Season 8, Episode 2 of Game of Thrones, you know there was a very awkward and slightly tension-filled moment between Daenerys and Sansa—the self-proclaimed Queen of the Seven Kingdoms and the Lady of the North.

The entire meeting was centered around Daenerys trying to get Sansa to trust her and “bend the knee” to her, especially because her “brother,” Jon Snow, already has. However, Sansa—having gone through hell and back—is not so sure she wants to trust a Targaryen right away, especially one whose father was known as the “Mad King.”

The conversation started out sweet, with Sansa and Dany talking about men and giggling with each other. But, quickly, Sansa let it take a turn for the serious side—asking about the North after the battle is over. She also reminded Dany that the Starks swore to “never bend the knee to another again.”

Dany—obviously uncomfortable and not sure how to handle herself around someone who doesn’t want to immediately call her Khaleesi—gave this sweet, awkward, scrunchy little smile back to Sansa.

It didn’t take long for Twitter to grab the screen cap and turn it into a viral meme. @reallyhalalfood posted the photo saying: “Caption this.”

And, Twitter came through with the jokes.

Clearly, Khaleesi has a lot to say.
