The wedding vow exchange was depressing. Obviously Laenor was upset but it’s important to note how upset Rhaenyra was too. She must feel at least a little guilt for Criston’s actions which may be why she was adamant in naming one of her children Joffrey. #HouseOfTheDragon

The Greens reaction right after Daemon killed Vaemond. Aegon is smirking while Aemond is the one who takes a slight step back in shock (doesn’t look away). Helaena covers her ears as Alicent moves appearing to want to protect her daughter, both look away. #HouseOfTheDragon

@2askylark He did. Poor choice of words on my part for saying she was adamant but still says a lot for allowing one of her sons to be named after Joffrey. We don’t really get her side of things in the books so it’ll be interesting to see how they play it.
