True. Plus, I can see Percy trying to spin it that way. LoL Meanwhile, Sansa's torn between being impressed and giving him the side-eye...Of course, she might mention he should include HER as a Goddess or God's Bride if he's going to brag...LOL

Eh, who's gonna trust the Ironborn? As for the present Northmen, Percy can just wave it off "It was all metaphorical, bro. Definitely to put the fear of Me in their squid brains"

Not to mention, Percy publicly declared himself a (demi) god. Even if only the Ironborn heard him, you can't tell me that tongues won't wag back in White Harbor. Everyone has been trying to get Sansa and him to spill his real origins. If they all realize he's divine how will that go down? He's just received the title "The Stormbringer" (Also one of Poseidon's titles in Greek Mythology). He's also "The Driftwood Hero," that slayed a sea serpent and turned it into sushi. Nobody in their right minds should want to mess with him or his wife.

Did he summon lightning? Totally not ok purpose, lmao. Jokes aside, the Northmen who came with Percy already knew a lot about his abilities. Sansa may have wanted him to keep it subtle, but this is still Percy. He doesn't do subtle. Howland and the Crannogmen had an idea due to 'reasons' but they definitely were still surprised by the sudden storm. Still, it was the Ironborn that mattered in that moment

So we saw how the iron born reacted to what Percy did when he lashed out, but how did the northmen take it? It’s one thing to hear stories about what he did to escape kings landing. It’s another to see him summon lightning from the sky to destroy something.

It's all those water genes that Percy and Sansa both have. 😆 Rivers and seas are plentiful and yield lots of kids. The currents are strong in those two! 🤣 🤣 🤣

Bub3loka

This is still a medieval feudal setting with nobility and expectations. Having children is part of the package of getting married. Sansa wants children to solidify her marriage to Percy, and the madlad was far too occupied fucking his wife to even think about pulling out... Not like Sansa would let him lol

Huh Percy’s gonna be a dad I’m not gonna lie that’s a first for any Percy Jackson story that I’ve read what is he gonna have a whole pack of a little stark babies by the end of the story

Bub3loka

Blame? No one is blaming anyone for that lmao. Cat's genes are just strong, and combined with Percy's seed, it makes for a very interesting combination

Tbf, I do not think we should just blame Catelyn for Sansa getting pregnant so soon. Percy comes from a pretty fertile line himself. His father, his Uncle Zeus, and many of his older cousins have so many offspring it's ridiculous. 😁
