"No Love for Ghost?"

"No Love for Ghost?"

After the battle of Winterfell Jon instructs his friend Tormund Giant's Bane to bring Ghost with him as he returns to Castle Black up north. Jon did not go near the Dire wolf. Did not say anything. Did not pet the Direwolves head or say good boy after everything that they have been through.

People are upset about this but they fail to see how choked up Jon Sno is upon seeing the Dire Wolves state. A long gash on it's body and a missing right ear too.

People fail to hear his words. "South is not a place for a Dire wolf" which is his way of saying that he knows how Ghost have been through and he no longer want him to suffer for there is sure to be more battles down south. It is not that he did does not love or appreciate the Direwolf. It is just that he has his own way of saying it. Sure it could have been less abstract. A hug or a word like good boy Ghost could have been less subtle but he has his way of expressing things.

People are upset because they did not see what they wanted to see.Only it was already there. Just now in the way that they want it to be.
