Game of Thrones fans are used to waiting. They’re waiting for Daenerys to return to the Seven Kingdoms, they’re waiting for the end of Tyrion’s brothel joke, and now, they’re waiting for season seven. Unfortunately, it’s going to be awhile. HBO announced earlier this week that the Emmy-nominated Thrones — which broke all sorts of record ratings last season — will begin “later this summer,” and won’t return until next summer, in 2017.
There are multiple ways to pass the time. You could make up rumors about when George R.R. Martin will finish and publish The Winds of Winter and A Dream of Spring, or buy a bottle of vodka from The Mountain, or start thinking about what the Starks will be up to next season. After all, not since Robert Baratheon arrived in Winterfell has the family been in such good shape. I mean, sure, Ned, Catelyn, Robb, and Rickon are dead, but on the bright side, Arya is heading home, Sansa is free from Ramsay’s sadistic tyranny, and Bran is the Three-Eyed Raven. Or as Maisie Williams put it on Instagram:

Williams and Sophie Turner haven’t shared a scene together since season one, so it’s fun to imagine the sort of hijinks these lovable killers will get into if they reunite. My advice to anyone who gets in their way: Don’t eat the pie.
