Reddit News: Monsters University, Game of Thrones, The Oscars, and More! Dan Koelsch, February 21, 2013February 21, 2013 Like many people, I lurk around Reddit during my downtime, and I find some pretty interesting stuff.

Below are two pieces of fan art featuring Sansa and Jaqen, respectively. There’s also a funny infographic of Sansa’s Dating Woes (beware of book spoilers).
