As Someone Who Was Adopted I HATEEE The Conversation Surrounding The Velaryon Kids Because I Never Felt

spoiler if you havent read f&b!!

looking at the stills of rhaena and joffery in the next ep, i know his death is going to break her, thats her baby too now 😭😭😭😭😭😭💔💔💔💔

hotd was a mistake.

Fire and Blood:

Rhaenyra - Calls her half-brothers her half-brothers and her half-sister her sweet sister.

Alicent - “Mayhaps the whore will die in childbirth.”

Aegon - “I offered her an honorable peace, and the whore spat in my face.”

Aemond: “…or must we kneel and kiss the old whore’s cunny.” “The whore of Dragonstone, he means.” “The whore on Dragonstone is not the threat.”

House of the Dragon:

Rhaenyra- Refers to Aegon as Alicent’s son.

Aegon - Calls Rhaenyra the ‘bitch queen of bastards, the smug cunt of Dragonstone.’

Criston - Calls Rhaenyra a ‘spoiled cunt’ and a ‘spider who sucks her prey dry.’

But sure, the main conflict of the war doesn’t revolve around misogyny.

What i thought we'd get with alicent being Rhaenyra's age and "friend"":

An ambitious young woman who befriended the princess to be in the upper echelons of society and close to the crown/crown princess in order to manipulate her/be closer to viserys in order to manipulate his feelings before/after aemma in order to become queen and work hard and use the secrets/insecurities she discovered as the princess' best friend/lady in waiting against rhaenyra in order to have her son crowned king one day

What we got: a bland, boring 2D character with no agency or goals or ambitions who hides the fact her son his a rapist, who insists she's the victim of the story and chalks everything up to an unfortunate accident cause she's never done anything wrong ever and only ever been used by everyone in her life 🙄 (this is sarcasm i loathe show alicent more than any other asoiaf character)

He was a bookish boy and much preferred the library, where he could often be found. Books were his only passion. Vaegon was quiet and wary as a boy. Even as a child, Vaegon was not well-liked, something which did not change over time. When he had to speak he was often blunt, though never intentionally cruel: he always dutifully performed perfunctory courtesies, but no more.

vaegon... you will always be special to me!!

When will the fandom stop acting like Aegon is a little kid?

Did he wanted to become King? Not really, at least not before he was crowned. Yet, he accepted to be crowned and thus he also usurped his sister. He's partly responsible for the civil war that tears Westeros apart. He's not its biggest victim as some of his stans claim. Passively accepting to be crowned and remaining inactive when he could have handed his sister the crown and thus avoiding the war and the slaughter of innocents IS a choice of his.

Oh you hate bran? You think he’s boring? You think he’s whiny? Should we throw a party? Should we tell the old gods? Wanna go tell bloodraven?

lmao so GRRM's notablog post criticizing Ryan Condal's writing choices has apparently now been deleted. 💀 the girls are fightinggg

"I have no idea what Ryan has planned, if indeed he has planned anything." 💅

Sad Little King
