History HoYay / GameOfThrones

* It's been noted that Varys and Littlefinger have an ongoing manipulator feud that kinda comes off as two gay high school students attacking each other's clothes, though Varys later confirms to Oberyn he is {{Asexual}}.

* The tension between Sansa and Daenerys in "[[{{Recap/GameOfThronesS8E1Winterfell}} Winterfell]]" immediately takes on a note of FoeYay. One of the first things Daenerys does after reaching Winterfell is to comment on how beautiful Sansa is. Sansa later returns the favour while talking to Jon. You can also tell that Daenerys spends a lot of time and energies trying to impress Sansa, something she never did with anyone, Jon included, and takes it ''very'' bad when it's clear that she will never like or trust her as if she was NotGoodWithRejection.

* The producers point out in a commentary track that Roose Bolton has quite a few scenes of competing for Robb's attention with Talisa.

** To top it all off, Sophie Turner (Sansa's actress) ships it.

* [[LesYay Daenerys and Missandei]], a call back to Dany and her [[SituationalSexuality handmaidens]]. Especially when you consider how in [[spoiler: Season 5, when she thinks she's about to be killed by assassins in the arena, the person she pays attention to is not Daario, the guy who's supposedly her romantic interest, but Missandei, whose hand she grabs before closing her eyes.]]
* Daenerys and Doreah get a lot of this, with their scene back in "[[{{Recap/GameOfThronesS1E2TheKingsroad}} The Kingsroad]]" where [[spoiler: Doreah teaches Dany "how to be good in bed"]] and all the times they exchange flat-out flirty looks with each other in the show [[spoiler: after Drogo, Dany's husband, has died]]. Considering how Dany sleeps with her handmaidens, well... one does wonder where this would have gone had [[spoiler: Doreah not betrayed Dany.]] (Or even how far it ''did'' go, off-camera, considering the way they look at each other and how Dany's dragons seem to absolutely love Doreah...)

* The tension between Sansa and Daenerys in "[[{{Recap/GameOfThronesS8E1Winterfell}} Winterfell]]" immediately takes on a note of FoeYay. One of the first things Daenerys does after reaching Winterfell is to comment on how beautiful Sansa is. Sansa later returns the favour while talking to Jon.

** A few fans have noted that Theon's CanonForeigner favourite prostitute Ros happens to be [[ReplacementLoveInterest a curly-haired redhead whose name is literally one sound away from Robb's]].

** In "Bear and the Maiden Fair," she talks with Sansa about her future marriage and all the different things that different women want in their beds. She randomly throws "pretty girls" in the middle and even gives Sansa a flower: a yellow, red-tipped rose, which in the real world is supposed to mean "I am falling in love with you."

** Unfortunately, [[PortmanteauCoupleName Sansaery]] may have become canon if not for [[spoiler: [[KilledOffForReal Margaery's death]] in the Season 6 finale.]]

* Daenerys and Doreah get a lot of this, with their scene back in Season 1 where [[spoiler: Doreah teaches Dany "how to be good in bed"]] and all the times they exchange flat-out flirty looks with each other in the show [[spoiler: after Drogo, Dany's husband, has died]].

* In "Mockingbird", Bronn tells Tyrion "if I wanted wits, I'd marry you" when Tyrion criticizes his engagement to Lollys. It's stated very matter-of-factly and doesn't read as particularly jokey, either.
* The tension between Sansa and Daenerys in the Season 8 premiere immediately takes on a note of FoeYay. One of the first things Daenerys does after reaching Winterfell is to comment on how beautiful Sansa is. Sansa later returns the favour while talking to Jon.

--->'''Tormund:''' My little crow!

** In season 6 he openly tells Tormund that he loved Stannis. (And Tormund adds an additional notch to this list by proclaiming that he loved Mance, as well.)

* The tension between Sansa and Daenerys in the season 8 premiere immediately takes on a note of FoeYay. One of the first things Daenerys does after reaching Winterfell is to comment on how beautiful Sansa is. Sansa later returns the favour while talking to Jon.

* Tormund repeatedly mocks Jon by calling him "pretty", at one point saying he's "prettier'n both my daughters".

* It's been noted that Varys and Littlefinger have an ongoing manipulator feud that kinda comes off as two gay high school students attacking each other's clothes.

** Cersei gets revenge on Ellaria for poisoning Marcella by doing the exact same thing to Ellaria's daughter

* Davos' rivalry with Melisandre can be viewed as BettyAndVeronica fighting over who gets to win Stannis' affections.

* In ''Mockingbird'' Bronn tells Tyrion "if I wanted wits, I'd marry you" when Tyrion criticizes his engagement to Lollys. It's stated very matter-of-factly and doesn't read as particularly jokey, either.

* Ramsay Bolton has a hard time keeping his ditance from or keeping his hands off his favorite torture victim, Theon. He even gives him a bath in his own room and asks him if he loves him.

* Dany and Yara seem to approve of each other, if the looks they've given each other are any indication. The latter, after saying she and Theon aren't seeking to marry Dany like their uncle will be, then amends her statement by saying she's "open to anything, really."

* Gendry and Jon's first meeting can come off as this. Especially since Gendry seems to be idolising Jon

* [[BiTheWay Ellaria and Yara]] in Stormborn. When talking about Yara ever visiting Dorne in the past Yara offhandedly mentions having boys and girls in every port (It depends on the port). It's the ''girls'' part which piques Ellaria's interest, and soon the two of them are full-on making out.
-->'''Ellaria:''' ''(To Theon, after parting his sister's legs)'' Why are you standing all the way over there, then? A foreign invasion is underway.

* Shae and Sansa. "I love that girl, I'd ''kill'' for her!"
* In the show, [[spoiler: Ellaria kills Myrcella by poisoning her.]] How does she do this? [[http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20150616003922/gameofthrones/images/d/db/Myrcella-ellaria-kiss.png By kissing her]] [[http://assets.nydailynews.com/polopoly_fs/1.2258250!/img/httpImage/image.jpg_gen/derivatives/article_970/article-thrones-0615.jpg square on the lips.]]

* [[HoYay Margaery and Sansa.]] For whatever reason, Margaery is incapable of staying out of Sansa's personal space or not touching her. Examples include:
