Well, there you have it Thrones fans: That. Just. Happened.

After three seasons of longing gazes and stolen glances, Missandei and Grey Worm finally got together during last night’s incredible episode of Game of Thrones. Everyone in Westeros will rejoice… until, of course, they are eventually slaughtered by White Walkers. The steamy hookup took place after Grey Worm was uncharacteristically sentimental in his attempt to bid farewell to Missandei as he prepared to leave for battle.

Grey Worm: It is hard for me to say goodbye to you.
Missandei: Why?
Grey Worm: You know why.
Missandei: I don’t.
Grey Worm: You are my weakness

Grey Worm and Missandei’s steamy encounter was one of the most unique sex scenes in Thrones history. Having been castrated as a young boy after his induction into The Unsullied, Grey Worm is a eunuch, but that didn’t stop the pair from partaking in a tender love scene.

“Stormborn” left many fans with a host of questions. Here’s everything you need to know about Missandei, Grey Worm, and the sultry duo’s powerful sex scene.

Who is the actress who plays Missandei on Game Of Thrones?

This Game of Thrones favorite is portrayed by English actress Nathalie Emmanuel.

Nathalie looks familiar. Where have I seen her before?

It’s possible that you recognize Emmanuel from the British soap opera Hollyoaks, but outside of Game of Thrones the actress is best known for her portrayal of hacker extraordinaire Ramsey in the Fast and the Furious franchise.

Who is the actor who plays Grey Worm on Game Of Thrones?

Grey Worm is portrayed by English actor Jacob Anderson. Not only has Anderson appeared on shows like EpisodesThe Mimic, and Broadchurch, but he’s also an accomplished singer/songwriter. Under the name Raleigh Ritchie, the actor released the album “You’re a Man Now, Boy” in February of 2016.

Can eunuchs have sex?

As the Telegraph reports, the series hasn’t been entirely clear as to the extent of Grey Worm’s castration. Earlier episodes implied that his castration may have been partial. Regardless, there are a variety of ways for a couple to experience sexual pleasure — as Grey Worm and Missandei illustrated during last night’s episode.

What do the experts have to say?

Dr. Thomas W. Johnson, a retired professor of cultural anthropology and an expert on eunuchs, revealed to Vulture that while eunuchs become less sexual, they do not become asexual.

“Sexuality doesn’t require an erect penis,” he said. “Tongue, lips, fingers – there are all kinds of ways for a male to be sexual with a woman. They become far less sexual, but they do not become asexual. There’s no reason why Grey Worm couldn’t be as loving as any lesbian, similar techniques if necessary!”
