Hello My Supportive Friends

Instead of talking shit about the actors, you should complain about the real culprits for their crappy acting in the series. If the people behind hotd didn't keep insisting on this shitty fanfic that women are all victims of manipulative and evil men, and had invested in the real story of the characters, I have no doubt that all the actors would have been excellent.

Before Aemond and Laena, Vhagar’s rider was Prince Baelon.

Before Rhaenys, Meleys’ rider was Princess Alyssa.

Before Rook’s Rest, they were ridden side by side for decades by two people madly in love, then by mother and daughter.

Do you think, while Vhagar’s jaws were clamped shut around Meleys’ throat, that either of them wondered how they got there?

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!!

Me watching the same people who infantilize young!Alicent to the point where it feels like she's 3 years old, adultify young!Lucerys to the point where it feels like he was 27 slashing the eye of 12 year old Aemond for his own enjoyment

wanna play with his hair while he info dumps nerdy stuff to me <3

Oh don't mind me. I am once again upset and flabbergasted by the favoritism toward Greens in screen time ratio.

We get two long scenes of Aegon making a fool of himself but not Jace's reaction to the prophesy shown, we don't even hear him listen to all of it.

Overlong scenes of Alicent and her potential pregnancy and Larys but no more reactions shown to Rhaenyra's absence.

Two unnecessary long scenes of Gwayne making fun of Criston but we don't see Rhaenys saying goodbye to Corlys. No scene of Rhaenys interacting with Baela or Jace or Rhaenyra. Saying goodbye to them. Even though this was her last appearance. The showrunners disrespect toward Rhaenys needs to be studied. She had one interaction with each of her granddaughters in the whole show and nothing with her grandsons.

Overlong montage of Criston taking in the destruction but no scene of how Jace is placed at the centre of council in his mother's absence.

None of the Team Black characters are given room to breathe. They barely get any screen time. Their emotions and conflicts are made secondary to disposable filler scenes of Greens. While all Team Black scenes are rushed and given no room to breathe.

This is not only incredibly unfair but also making the show quite a bore to sit through. And HBO wonders why the ratings are falling. People don't want to see the same thing with Greens over and over again when they're not developing. They haven't earned excessive screentime. Believe me, everyone's tired of this mess.

"not all men-" you're right, jacaerys targaryen, heir to the iron throne, prince of dragonstone, the eldest son of queen rhaenyra targaryen and laenor velaryon, a dragonrider, would never treat me like this

I love Barristan, he rly is Ser Grandpa in the best possible way.

I feel so bad for him like bro deserved to life in a better world, he's not perfect and is definitely a product of his environment but his heart is in the right place. I also think about how he's interestingly contrasted w the other shitter Queensguard. "What did she look like, your Lady Lynesse?"

Ser Jorah smiled sadly. "Why, she looked a bit like you, Daenerys." He bowed low. "Sleep well, my queen."

ACOK - Daenerys I

Even after all these years, Ser Barristan could still recall Ashara's smile, the sound of her laughter. He had only to close his eyes to see her, with her long dark hair tumbling about her shoulders and those haunting purple eyes. Daenerys has the same eyes. Sometimes when the queen looked at him, he felt as if he were looking at Ashara's daughter…

ADWD - The Kingbreaker

They both see their former love in Dany but importantly Barristan sees Dany as Ashara's child whereas Jorah sees Lynesse herself. AND that's why Jorah is a creepy ped0phile and Barristan is a compassionate surrogate grandpa whomst we like.

I'm Jorah's strongest hater.

If Jorah has million haters, then I'm one of them. If Jorah has one hater, then I'm THAT ONE. If Jorah has no haters, that means I'm dead.

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.

I made a new one
