I am π―% "Team Black". My last name is even Black. I hate that Aemond stole Vhaegar. He got what he deserved. He was about to crush that boy's head in with a rock. It would have probably killed him. I know from experience, that Traumatic Brain Injuries are nothing to joke about. I was in a very abusive relationship 10 years ago, and he kicked me in the head repeatedly one night. I had blood on my brain for three months, had Mini Strokes a couple of weeks later, and developed Epilepsy from scar tissue about 6 months later. I have now been taking Siezure Meds for 10 years. I felt so bad for Laena's Daughter. I know it is gross, but marrying in the family to keep pure blood lines, was a very common thing way back in the day. I can't remember when you said it, but I think it was during a "Game of Thrones" Episode...You said, "Blue People", and I started π€£, because I am from Kentucky, and there is a family from Decades ago, that was called the "Blue Family". Due to inbreeding, and a certain gene, there was a family that was actually blue. I truly hate it when people make fun of the State I am from for incest though, because I have looked up the facts, and Kentucky is definately not rated # 1 for incest, pedophelia, or anything gross like that, and unfortunately, it happens in every State and Country. I live in Colorado now though, because I like the scenery and the ππ¬π¨ Cleopatra was one of the most, if not the most, inbred person to ever live. I am very glad they didn't kill Laenor, because many people would have in that World. Rhaenyra really did π him, but her β€οΈβπ₯for Daemon was far greater. Thanks for your reactions. π°ππ¬ππͺ¨ππͺ‘πͺπ‘ππ©Έπͺ‘π€π©Ή

Alicent is the woman in all of us and millions of women today and through history that were forced to live their life through "duty" and then were still criticised and insulted for staying strong and finding a purpose. While Rhaenyra is the noble rich entitled princess that does what she wants and is still not satisfied. Can't believe people are so much on Rhaenyra's side when she is the epitome of nepotism and classisism.

2024-03-25 15:03:27 +0000 UTCNot sure if you remembered it but in the last episode Alicent tells Aemond "you will have a dragon one day" and Halaena says to herself "he'll have to close an eye"

2024-03-25 08:52:55 +0000 UTCI only have 4 problems with it. The shade filter they used was trash (did they learn nothing from the white walker battle), there was no blood on the blade after it cut Rhaenyra, they aren't doing justice to Daemons fatherhood because in the book he is a good father, and the Leanor reveal happening after the wedding made me enjoy the wedding a lot less than I would've. You should watch the "inside the episode" when the episode ends. It won't spoil anything, but it might give you answers or a better idea and insight to the events in the episode. Daemon laughing at the funeral was to get attention away from Rhaenyra because everybody was looking at her due to the insults in Vaemond's speech. During the gathering we can see just as much tension between the kids as the adults which is very sad. This is mainly due to Alicent and Cole. We have seen them constantly talk bad about Rhaenyra and her kids in public and to Alicent's kids. We've seen Cole treat and train Alicent's kids better and more than Rhaenyra's. We haven't ever seen Rhaenyra say or do anything bad about Alicent's kids or say anything bad about her or Cole in public. The Daemon and Rhaenyra scene was great and needed (incest I know). We saw there was something between them in episode 1 and it's just built up since. The connection was clearly still there, now that they're both adults and both are grieving it was inevitable. The entire dragon scene was awesome but claiming Vhagar was a shitty thing to do to those little girls. After its rider dies a dragon chooses the next so Aemond didn't technically steal it. However, with Leana being the last rider her dragonless daughter should've had the chance to claim Vhagar before anybody else. Aemond doing it the night of Leana's funeral made it even worse. Aemonds anger and hatred along with Vhagar is going to be a problem lol. The fight between the kids was perfect. 2 girls with no fighting skills, 1 boy with some fighting skills, and a tiny boy with hardly any fighting skills vs. a boy who is bigger by like a foot and has more and better fighting skills (Partly due to Cole training Alicent's kids more than Rhaenyra's). You fight to win so cut that bitch lol. Aemond 100% instigated the fight and deserved what he got. They didn't just jump him. It was between Aemond and the dragonless daughter then her sister defended her then Jace defended his cousins and Luke defended his brother. Jace didn't pull the knife until his baby brother was getting choked and insulted and about to get smashed with a rock. Aemond hit Jace in the head with the rock and would've kept going if he didn't get cut. When you look at Alicent's kids vs Rhaenyra's you can see who the better parent is. The aftermath was perfect. This entire time Rhaenyra has kinda been on the defensive but this episode she went on the offensive. In Kings Landing she didn't really have anybody to help her. Leanor was kind of a party boy and even though he is a warrior he probably wasn't fit for the political scheming type of fight. Ser Harwin basically couldn't do or say anything because of his position on the totem pole. But now she feels like she has Daemon to back her up. So, she makes her first move by putting out her kids legitimacy. Knowing her father would be on her side on this topic. Every move she made was to make Alicent show the room her true bitter cunty self. Now word will spread about her true nature and if anything were to happen, she would be the first person they look at. Rhaenyra baited Alicent perfectly and now the king basically legitimized her kids and if he keeps his word will take any tongue who questions it. Alicent and her family are the only people in the realm making a big deal about Rhaenyra's kids. The king doesn't care. Leanor doesn't care. He claimed them, loved them, and raised them as his own. Corlys doesn't care because "history remembers names not blood" and his wife is kinda split but its only Alicent bitching, crying, and stabbing. The kids are just as Targaryen as hers. The entire exchange between Rhaenyra and Alicent just proves that her family is the true problem. She is basically mad because Rhaenyra gets to live how she wants, and she doesn't. She is angry and bitter that Rhaenyra's life is better than hers. Her bitterness is actually putting her kids lives in more danger because she is starting a civil war. Marrying Daemon and "killing" Leanor was the 2nd power move Rhaenyra made. They are a dangerous combo. They can make pure white hair Targaryen kids, Daemon is a proven warrior, they are both smart and strategic when needed, and now that Leanor is gone, they are both feared. She also sticks it to Alicent again too because she is marrying who she wants and out of love. She strengthened her claim, married somebody she loves, and still kept the alliance with the Velaryons because of Daemon's kids and hers by name. Plus, it helps that Alicent would be doing what was done to Rhaenys. Leanor got a good deal out of that because he wanted a way out but there wasn't one until now. He is free and can live how he wants with who he wants, I know I wrote a lot sorry lol.

2024-03-25 03:58:01 +0000 UTCAlicent is the most sympathetic character in my opinion. She didn't come onto the King willing. She was pressured & basically forced to do so by her father. So from her point of view, she like Rhaenyra was also forced into a marriage but she did her duty. Is a good wife and gave the King heirs as was expected of her. She resents the fact that Rhaenyra gets to do whatever she wants and not only faces no consequences but is also protected by Viserys, while basically passing over their sons who's lives Alicent still believes would be in danger if Rhaenyra were to be queen. This episode is what made me team Alicent. Her son just lost his eye and instead of the King focusing on that, he's more concerned about protecting rhaenyra and her lies.

2024-03-25 02:29:25 +0000 UTCVaemond Valeryon was pointedly talking about true blood children as a poke at Rhaenera, and Daemon was laughing at that. I know the incest is icky to us, but it's very different for the Targaryens. Some people say Daemon groomed her as a child, but the Targs have what we would call soul mates. Daemon and Rhaenera are soul mates and were attracted to each other from the get go. She just went for it, he restrained himself (somewhat, the brothel thing was more of an attempt to ruin her reputation) and married Laena, removing himself in more ways than one from Rhaenera's life. But they've always felt it, you can see it in how they can't avoid looking at each other at the funeral. A classic fated lovers thing, if you will. The old king Jaehaerys from the very first episode had this with his sister wife, Alysanne. They married as children against their mother's wishes and took drastic steps to avoid her anulling the marriage. They were two halves of a whole, very much in love, even as children. Targaryens lol. Helaena firstly, I think, has a form of autism (remember how when she was a baby she never stopped crying?). Second, she has something that some people might call sight. Remember last episode she said 'he'll have to lose an eye' and now Aemond has lost an eye to gain a dragon. Watch what she says, it's usually important. Notice the music during Aemond and Vhagar's bonding flight, very reminiscent of Dany's theme. When Targaryens bond with their dragons, it affects their personalities. Note the difference; Aemond at the funeral looked like he wanted to be friendly to Jace, but didn't know what to say, only to insult him, beat him, and threaten his life along with his brother's and their cousins'. Big change, all because he's bonded with a friggin battle hardened old lady dragon. You're almost there, only one more time jump!! They had to age the kids up before next season. Will you be reacting to the HOTD trailers? They did a wonderful marketing job by releasing two trailers, a black one and a green one.

2024-03-25 01:55:58 +0000 UTCThe thing about Aemond claiming Vhagar is that we have to remember what Danny told us in GOT: A dragon is not a slave. Vhagar is not just automatically betrothed to Laena's children. A dragon can chose who and when they want to bond with someone. And it is sort of a snooze, you lose situation. But a fair play, IMO, by Aemond.
