Pascal posted a photo of himself with Björnsson on Instagram, which shows the two nowhere near the scene of Tyrion’s (Peter Dinklage) trial by combat.
They’re not impaling each other with sharp swords or popping each other’s eyes out or cutting each other’s hamstrings or popping each other’s heads like a balloon.
In fact, the Viper is smiling with a thumbs up, the Mountain is flexing and they’re both wearing swim trunks. The photo’s caption is simply, “Buds.”
