Even Sam brought up how Dany wasn't really queen and it's like, dude, who cares.
I like to think that with his powers he just sorta plants himself around Winterfell where he can creep the most people out while he's waiting for Jaimie to show up. Really helping with the war effort, that one.
Yeah Arya seems like a lot different than she was for most of last season. Maybe it's getting used to being around family again, although that's probably being too generous to the writers.
