visenya targaryen, who famously despised house hightower and the faith of the seven, would be okay with aemond, the son of a hightower, using her mount to kill a targaryen prince?
i do not know why people so conveniently forget that rhaenyra wed laenor under the threat of being stripped of her titles and removed as heir in both the books and the show
aegon iii wearing a hairshirt underneath his garments is something that i think about a lot. hairshirts were worn for penitence and repentance; i wonder if aegon wore one to punish himself out of guilt for not being able to save viserys or their mother
"Ned never thinks negatively about anyone in the books"
🤔
Ned does like to point out that Aerys was crazy, a bad king, and a murderer. It's not like he never thinks a bad thought of the guy. He also holds a grudge against Jorah, Jaime, Tywin and Gregor
targaryen women i think should’ve wielded dark sister:
alyssa
rhaenys
baela
daena the defiant and her sister elaena
daenora, the wife of aerion brightflame
and i truly hope dark sister somehow makes its way from brynden to daenerys i NEED to see her with it
especially sansa. i will never forget how They had her say that her abuse and r*pe made her stronger. and how They had dany say that she’s not the same girl, “not after what they did to her.” the hatred and disgust i have for david and dan knows no bounds.
people act like any of them had good character accurate endings like no. none of these endings made any sense and they destroyed the characters of all four
@nyralover
compare that to jace and baela comforting each other, corlys and rhaenys in bed together, rhaenyra telling baela she’s depending on her and that she would never wish the loss of a child on helaena….

laenor is heir to the richest house in the seven kingdoms and consort to the crown princess and they had him getting tossed around like a fucking blunt. and nothing happened to those men afterwards? ryan condal you will Pay
so tell me if i’m wrong but so far sara hess has removed necessary scenes (daemon comforting his daughters) and added in unnecessary ones (the alicent and larys scene) and spoken of sympathizing with aegon and rapists who don’t “think” they’re rapists
“every symbol of legitimacy belongs to aegon” they also belonged to maegor, otto. maegor rode the conqueror’s mount, wore his crown, bore his sword, and sat his throne but that certainly did nawt mean maegor should have ruled. otto pisses me OFFFF
@cowtiekento
it’s so funny to me that this was his first time meeting yuuji and he immediately told him his life story, nanami kento you sweet silly little man
so i suppose we’re ignoring that daenerys was a thirteen year old child sold to a man and r*ped daily and that mirri maz duur murdered daenerys’ unborn child in her womb. daenerys did not kill that woman for being a victim of abuse, she killed her for murdering her child
the only targaryen men that deserved rights are
- aegon i, aegon iii, and aegon v
- every aemon
- baelon
- baelor breakspear
- duncan
- the boring daeron and the gay daeron
- (maybe) maekar
- rhaegar (idc that’s my pookiewookiebear)
@ZOfspadez
over rhaenyra, the king’s eldest descendant? visenya would’ve died for rhaenyra and her children’s rights before she ever advocated to put a fawking hightower on the throne

@Targ_Nation
the only time a dragon has ever disobeyed their rider before that episode was when alysanne targaryen’s dragon refused to fly beyond the wall bc of the magic fuckery of the wall and the lands beyond, why would balerion ever disobey aegon
oh so now we’re acting like daenerys didn’t put as many people as she could under her protection to save them from rape and violence? while she was a child bride, mind you
if the velaryons were canonically black rhaenys tqwnw should have not been white given the fact that both of her parents would have been mixed and descendants of alyssa velaryon…they did nawt think that through
nettles, a poor brown girl taming a wild dragon and rhaena hatching a dragon amidst the war, terrifying the greens and making her the last dragonrider until daenerys stormborn….hotd i hate you
jaehaerys' reign is so funny bc everything is pretty peaceful and chill and then we have rhaena experiecing all the horrors that humanity has to offer over the course of 2 years
i think one of the things that bothers me the most about rhaenicent and hotd’s take on rhaenyra is that they took away all other relationships rhaenyra had with other women and made her unceasingly lonely after viserys’ remarriage when she had many other companions
people flexing that ageon ii was ‘remebered as king’. fire and blood was written as a history book in asoiaf, which means many people see still aegon as a usurper like arianne martell. and it’s not a flex that misogyny won and aegon had rhaenyra’s reign removed from history. 1/2
asoiaf noble houses have kept the same distinct facial characteristics after centuries but “incest is not normalized in westeros”…i need some of y’all to pick up a book and READ
“sometimes she would close her eyes and dream of him, but it was never Jorah she dreamed of; her lover was always younger and more comely...—
he was Petyr, her protector, warm and funny and gentle... but he was also Littlefinger. and Littlefinger was no friend of hers.—”
@ZOfspadez
because she thought aenys weak and unfit…rhaenyra was powerful and had strong and wise council…why do you think she would ever prefer a younger brother or son over a woman who had the wit and strength to rule
targaryen men are the devil. i truly do believe that if not for jaehaerys and his sexism setting a precedent for his descendants, the targaryens would have thrived and ruled until the present
i cant believe this hoe got me out here shooting for daemon but daemon is a man who loves his family deeply and completely, he was an extremely devoted husband to laena and rhaenyra and loved them and their children more than anything. one of daemon’s redeeming qualities +
A
#HouseOfTheDragon
producer is baffled on why Daemon receives such high praise
“I’m a little baffled how they’re all, ‘Oh, daddy!’ And I’m just like: ‘Really?’ How — in what way — was he a good partner, father or brother – to anybody?”
something that’s actually really funny to me is that people bring up primogeniture and use jaehaerys to defend the greens like jaehaerys himself didn’t ignore primogeniture when he denied rhaenys
@ZOfspadez
she would care, if not personally then politically. that’s the son of a hightower kinslaying and murdering the son of a targaryen…she’d kill aemond and his whole family
it kills me when people argue about asoiaf and one of them says none of this is real like yes correct and yet you still have an entire account dedicated to a person that is not real. perhaps we’re all mentally ill have you thought of that
