I’ll never forget how insecure Stansa’s got when the Key Five was revealed, complained about it and then to cope they created the ‘Core Six’ and actually ties into their continuous stream of passing of fanon as canon and at the same time being the usual delusional bunch they’ve always been
What's really funny is that they still confidently claim that the Key Five doesn't mean anything, solely because she isn't a part of it. The Core Six is a completely fanon invention but people talk about it like it's fact. They want her to be more important than she is so badly that they're straight up ignoring the author. And yes, until otherwise stated by George, the Key Five are still a thing. Tbh I'm not sure if there was ever a time that they engaged with the source material though? A lot of them came from the show (*cough*fanfiction) so that's where a majority of their takes are coming from. That's why we get people saying things like "Sansa charmed George off the page" or "Sansa took Arya's place as George's favorite Stark sister". They just desperately want the show to match up with the books. What's annoying is that her not being a part of the Key Five doesn't mean she isn't important, but people take it as hate towards her. It's sad that the only version of her they like is her fanon one.

who do you think is the chosen one in asoiaf?
I think the best thing about ASOIAF, and what most people fail to see, is that there’s no chosen one— there’s five. Everyone from the Key 5 is a chosen one, destined for something specific that will end up coming together in Dreams of Spring.
Daenerys is obviously the Prince that was Promised; Jon is Azor Ahai reborn as he clearly has a connection with the white walkers, and got burned the first time he was attacked by one; Bran is the new greenseer, since he’s with Bloodraven; Arya is the chosen one for the Faceless Men; and Tyrion, I think, is going to be the one that unites all of them and hopefully be some short of “leader” or guide to the other four

GRRM: Since the show finished in 2019, I’ve considerably changed my plans regarding the ending of the books. And I might change these plans further.
ASOIAF fandom: Anyway, here is how a thirty year old proposal letter (which the author has dismissed as unimportant and which mostly contradicts the published books) actually predicts the endings of all important characters.

Of course, Stansas don't care about the Key Five concept, that's why they totally didn't tried (and failed) to push the Core Six concept 😭
They definitely would be defending the idea with all their might if they could've convinced everybody else in the fandom to go along with it, but since they couldn't it has to mean nothing 😭

Eddie, posting to Tiktok: Yeah, yeah, yeah. I’m an asshole for waking Steve up to watch a movie with me, whatever. I’ve been filming us sleep for like, two week now and-
Steve, from a distance: What?
Eddie: Shh, it’s for a project, but-
Steve, closer: That’s creepy as shit, Eddie.
Eddie: I- yeah, it is. Not the point though. Watch this shit.
*cuts to a video from last week where Eddie’s asleep and Steve is laying in bed, staring at the ceiling. He sighs loudly to himself and then turns to Eddie and whispers, “Ed?”
Steve says his name louder and even nudges him. When Eddie make no indication that he’s going to wake up, Steve reaches over him and into the drawer of his bedside table and steals his car keys.
He kisses Eddie on the forehead before getting out of bed. He whispers for a Ozzy to come with him and then leaves the room, spinning the keys around on his finger.
The video cuts back to Eddie and he’s like: He stole my car! He doesn’t even have a license!! What do you have to say for yourself, thief? *flips camera over to Steve*
Steve: That doesn’t prove anything!
