'Game of Thrones': Arya and Gendry Just Hooked up, and No One Was Ready

Giving the Fans What They Want!

For many fans, this is one of the moments they've been wanting to see since earlier in the series. That might sound a little creepy, but it is less about the sexual nature and more about seeing a girl step into adulthood. The completion of a journey, except with a little death and blood involved.

Not everybody is on board with this, though.

I Am Woman!

But the folks who are on board with it let it be known that Arya has grown so much since season one. She is a woman now and she knows what she wants. If death is knocking at the door, she wants to experience it all before the cold takes Winterfell.

That's not too long too given what we see at the end of the episode.

Taking Charge...

The moment had quite a few actually cheering from the stands due to Arya taking charge and "taking her shot" with Gendry. Untimely death and the possibility of becoming an ice zombie on the horizon? Screw it. Let's have fun.

Kobe Bryant is the perfect comparison because he would thrive in this situation.

A Little Bit Weird to See...

Other fans felt it was all a bit weird, on a personal and a story level. This is a girl we've basically watched grow up in front of us on television, baring it all for a sex scene in the final season of a series that doesn't have the best track record when it comes to its female characters.

Also, on a story level, it's just a strange one. Even if it is hinted at back in the earlier seasons, why pigeonhole it in here. Will this end up happening in the books too, where Arya hasn't been aged as much as she was for the television series?.

A Taste of Shock!

Nobody was prepared when it hit the screen, that's for sure. Judging just from these two reactions, some folks had to rush off directly to church in order to clean off this filth and replace it with something else.

Why Would You Do This!?

And the oddest reactions are the people who want to treat the young woman who has killed numerous people, including the entire male wing of House Frey, like she's an innocent babe. She is a trained assassin!

The Series Can End Now...

A few were just happy to see she didn't end up dying as a murderous little virgin. She might have plenty of blood on her hands from the entire run of the series, but she has made it. She's back with her family, has broken past the virgin wall and can firmly say she's experienced more than most do in life.

This is especially true in Westeros where some babies were turned into White Walkers and a lot of other people have been burned alive via dragons and wildfire.

A Little Mood Music!

And finally, it wouldn't be a sex scene without a little mood music. Give us that loving sound and let the night take you away, Arya and Gendry.

No need to be subtle when there are tons of zombies just up the road ready to pop in and ruin everybody's lives.
