History Heartwarming / PurpleDays

* Chapter 68. Joffrey says farewell to his supposed father King Robert one last time. Robert yet again was gutted by a pig but this time not because of Cersei's poisoned wine. The two are able to have an earnest conversation about Joffrey's change in character, all the good work he is doing to lead Westeros into a better future, and how proud Robert is of Joffrey despite not putting in the work to raise him and how confident he is in him, Sansa, and all the others in leading the Seven Kingdoms well. Joffrey even works up the courage to tell Robert the truth about his illegitimacy, but Robert passes away before he can hear the rest. When Joffrey walks out to tell Ser Barristan the news, the old knight simply says, "Long Live the King."
* Chapter 74. With his trial with Daenerys looming, Joffrey has taken after Sansa and [[HonestyIsTheBestPolicy told Tyrion, Sandor, and Jon the truth about the Purple and the Cycle.]] His three friends have only grown more attached to him as a result and beg him to reconsider his insane plan to challenge Daenerys in Trial-By-Combat for the right to the Iron Throne, but Joffrey rebuffs them, insisting that he has to ensure that no one else suffers as a result of what he has done to Daenerys.

* Chapter 66. Joffrey finally works up the courage to admit the truth about himself to Ned, and it ends with Joffrey tearfully thanking him for all he did for him over the many loops, declaring to Ned that no matter what anyone else says Ned is his real father, and Ned taking it as well as he can considering he has no idea what he's done to deserve this.

* Chapter 65, Hearth. Knowing it's the last loop, Sansa talks to her parents, showing them what's to come and confiding on them about the lives she's lived and the role she and Joffrey play into the battle for every living soul in Planetos. Terrified as she is when Sansa displays sorcery, Catelyn holds to her and comforts her until she stabilizes. Ned and Cat are shown that the future King knows of the danger and has begun preparations for the darkness ahead, giving them hope that the horror of the White Walkers and the Long Night can be defeated.

* Chapter 63, Cold Wind. Sansa speaks to Will the Night's Watch deserter and lets him tell her all of what he saw, how many wights and where. This brings Will peace as someone who believed him took his message seriously, and he dies happy he may have been able to warn everyone after all.

* Chapter 62. The Summer Isles chapters were a nice reprieve from the ominous Asshai training loop and scary and depressing mini arc where in Joffrey damages the Purple and sends him and Sansa to the middle of the canon timeline. Joffrey and Sansa go to the Summer Isles to get some much needed time and relax, reconnect, and consider their moves for the future. They have some good times together, make new friends, and even meet Joffrey's long lost great-uncle Gerion and his native family, but the highlight was most definitely the end of Chapter 62, wherein Joffrey takes Sansa on a boat ride on the Summer Sea for a night of thrills, marveling at dolphins and tropical birds, and lovemaking. Its a hopelessly romantic and heartening scene that serves as the perfect transition for what looks to be the last loop of the story.

* Chapter 59. Joff's reaction to the canon incident in which a peasant (implied to be Pocket, who served in the Royal Legion in the Blackworks loop) tossed some dung at him. Joff simply talks to him and hears him out, gives him a small coin and promises to arrange for the distribution of some of the Red Keep's stores (guilting the High Septon so the Great Sept does likewise), walking away having gained some measure of respect from the smallfolk.

* Joffrey selected a group of minor and neglected noblemen (and bastard) to become Officers of his newly created Royal Guardsmen. He took a group of men who would otherwise be forgotten and dismissed in their society and saw something great in them. Taking a leaf from Sansa (who gave him the idea), he imbibed them with a purpose, to become something greater than a knight, someone who can lead and destroy armies and become a paragon of justice. And not just the nobility as well, Joffrey also managed to do the same of the Small Folk and finally broke the barriers that denied them upwards mobility and created something he had learned in the Yi-Ti Arc.

* Chapter 45. All of it. [[spoiler: Sansa comforting Joffrey after the previous chapter's brutal scene. The two of them hosting a party littered with small moments of these. From a friend of Sansa asking a man to dance, to Robert and Tyrion crashing their party that led to Joffrey and Robert dueling each other. Robert's monologue of just how ''proud'' he is of Joffrey. It ends with the TearJerker of Robert passing away, although utterly content that his son is more than capable of handling the task of ruling. And after so much politicking and actions for the past few arcs, chapter 45 stands out as one of the most heartwarming moments in Purple Days.]]
