Game Of Thrones Season 6: 8 Things You Might've Missed In 'Battle Of The Bastards'

8. Brienne And Tormund Are Pretty Similar

Despite the fact that they've only actually shared a couple of scenes together, Brienne and Tormund are on of the stories of Season 6. Ever since the wildling first clasped eyes on the sworn protector of Sansa Stark, it was true love (albeit unrequited, at the moment) and Tumblr was set alight going crazy for 'Trienne' (though Daenerys and Yara may now be giving them some competition).

The pair should clearly get together and have giant babies who grow up to be total badasses, and this episode proves it further. A highlight of the battle is when Tormund, while fighting Smalljon Umber, leans in and bites him in the throat.

Horrible, bloody, brutal, and also similar to Brienne's style of fighting, when necessary. During her fight with the Hound, she actually bit off a part of his ear.

They're obviously made for each other.
