Now there's this acc that said canon/book Alicent and Rhaenyra's beauty cannot be compared, because 'Alicent is just as beautiful as Rhaenyra'. And their reasoning? Because Hightowers have Silver/blonde hair. And ofc Alicent had silver hair. And silver hair is the only thing that makes Rhaenyra more beautiful than Alicent.
The only Hightowers with silver hair is Alerie, who is most likely 40+, it could simply be age. OR the fact she came after Rhaena married into House Hightower. She had six DAUGHTERS. Lady Sam and Lyonel had six SONS. I'm not saying they all married each other. BUT, they're cousins. Though Westerosis did not marry their siblings, they did marry their cousins (ex: Tywin & Joanna, were first cousins).
It is so stupid how the shitshow has brainwashed people.
The only upperhand Alicent had on Rhaenyra was the fact she remained a slim beauty after 4 pregnancy.
This is so Aemma and Rhaenyra. Maybe Aemma telling Rhaenyra she's going to have a new siblingš«š„¹. Before it all goes wrong.

Well if they didn't have ambitions all the Hightowers and their targaryen children would've all been dead. Alicent's ambition is the only thing that kept her children alive. Hope this helps.
Right...... Which one of her children did she keep alive again? Lol you people truly do say whatever comes to your mind huh. Viserys kept them alive. She killed her children, is the sentence you should've typed out. But then again, with her political inexpertise and incompetence no one can blame her.
'All the Hightowers would've been dead', girl they're an irrelevant house, no one gives a shit abt them:).

KING AEGON III & QUEEN DAENAERA VELARYON
Queen Alicent Hightower
«Do keep trying, sir Laenor, soon or late, you may get one who looks like you.»
āThat night, Septon Eustace reports, Ser Criston Cole slipped into the princessās bedchamber to confess his love for her. He told Rhaenyra that he had a ship waiting on the bay and begged her to flee with him across the narrow sea. They would be wed in Pentos or Tyrosh or Old Volantis, where her fatherās writ did not run, and no one would care that he had betrayed his vows as a member of the Kingsguard. His prowess with sword and morningstar was such that he did not doubt he could find some merchant prince to take him into service. But Rhaenyra refused him. She was the blood of the dragon, she reminded him, and meant for more than to live out her life as the wife of a common sellsword. And if he could set aside his Kingsguard vows, why would marriage vows mean any more to him?ā
And yet it was HER (a 16 year old girl) who 'seduced'(š¤®) HIM(a 31 year old man)??
This is a man who has watched this child of SEVEN grow up into a 'women'. He has seen her grief and mourn her late mother. Seen her get mocked by her 'stepmother'. Seen her get challenged every waking moment.
And yet there are defending āpoorā Cristonās honor and person, calling Rhaenyra is a wh*re because she seduced a grown man?.
Not once does Rhaenyra mention him after what happened, NOT ONCE. Criston on the other hand calls her a wh*re every chance he gets, sided against her, cause HAVOK during her wedding, convinced her half brother to take the throne just so wouldn't be queen. Full on died just so she wouldn't be queen
Rhaenyra never thought of him, and he spent the rest of his life abominating her.
That sounds exactly like a man who would throw acid on a woman because he was rejected by her.
Really stupid, but do Targaryens even get pimples. The closest we have is Maekar with his pox scars. But what of pimples and acne, there are so many described with 'flawless white skin' (ie, Viserra, who was a 15yr old teen)
Daughter of King Jaehaerys and Queen Alysanne.
(why yes, I did redo Viserra. Why do you ask?)
Not people saying āFandom has always been like thisā in that vent post I made. No. It hasnāt always been like this. Fandom has NEVER been like this until recently and if you were in fandom pre-tumblr purge, pre-twitter, pre-netflix boom, pre-tiktokā¦.then you would fucking know it was nothing like this.
We still had the drive to create. We still sold prints and charms and made zinesā¦but it was never like this.
The introduction of streaming, binge shows that drop all at once, tiktok and vine RIP i still love u vine but you were the beginning of a particularly ugly era) creating this bite sized, quick paced ācontentā era of creation and it bled out into fucking everything else.
Fandoms didnāt die down when the show ended or the season was over. You didnāt mass unfollow artist, writers or moots just because they changed fandoms. There wasnāt this need to please the algorithm in order for your posts to get seen by people and enjoyed.
Fandoms used to last YEARS. Star Trek is literally the oldest running fandom out there and you got people in there that could care less about the new stuff and still have been happily prancing through their fucking fifty year old fandom today. Hell, even SPN after all itās fuckups and shitshows has a dedicated fanbase STILL creating tons of art and fic.
There is no patience anymore. No calm feeling of taking in fandom and friends at a pace that which doesnāt make you stressed and is still fun.
Do I blame fandom for this? Of course not, but people are complacent with it and start changing their vocab to accommodate and end up making the situation so deep it cant be fixed.
We call Art & Fic Content now, completely stripping the value of what it is to a level of consumerism instead of personal entertainment & community bonding.
not a bot, just a chilling lurker. Viserra and Rhaenyra and Daenerys³ are baby girls who deserved better. āAnd here it is, our final night alive, As the earth burns to the ground.ā
