Biggest Problem With Modern Politics: There Aren’t Any Chosen Ones. Seriously. Governments In Stories

I love that they included every house she represents, even Baratheon!!

"The word of my house is not fickle." EVE BEST as RHAENYS TARGARYEN in HOUSE OF THE DRAGON S01E09 “The Green Council”

Am I an avid Team Black supporter? Yes.

Do I understand where the Greens are coming from? Also yes.

Aegon would have been the better choice for heir initially because a male heir would have been less contentious. That’s a simple fact. Unfortunately, he wasn’t raised to be king, Rhaenyra was, and there was no way she wouldn’t have pressed her claim.

Frankly, Viserys and Otto were responsible for this whole mess, and they are the only two characters that I actually dislike (their actors did an excellent job).

My personal bc as to why Saul had like… no reaction to Farah being dead was because he already knew. Like, he knew she would have never left him in prison or at least found a way to visit, he knew she would have never let Rosalind anywhere near her school, and he knew how far Rosalind was willing to go to get power. So he’d known for months, and he had to get back to Alfea, so he hid his anger and grief like a champ.

I’m in.

Ok, hear me out… I liked episode 8 but not 9.

Spoilers ahead.

I loved episode 8. Agatha agreeing to trade Billy for herself and manipulating him to get what she wanted then changing her mind at the last second bc he brought up her son lowkey fits and also shows how much like Agatha Billy is bc the whole ‘Is this how Nicky died’ moment was clear manipulation. Agatha not wanting to see Rio made sense to me, their relationship reads like one I’ve had in the past, where neither of us really liked each other (see episode 1/8), but when we spent any time with together, we fell back into old habits (see episode 4/5/6). Plus the Agathario kiss was fantastic.

9 on the other hand was confusing. I liked that the Road was a con, but other than that I just felt like I was missing most of the story. Nicky was cute, but that’s about it. And what was the difference between Agatha killing witches with Nicky and after he died? Like was killing witches keeping Nicky alive? And if so why not state that at any point? And as fun as Ghost Agatha is, there is literally no benefit to being a ghost so why would Agatha choose that? It felt like they were trying to downplay Billy’s manipulation of her to keep him ‘innocent’. Like, commit to Billy being amoral already, instead of trying to pass off all the bad stuff he does as accidents or Agatha’s fault. Interested to see where this goes in future projects.

Did Leida’s husband/fiancé/fellow-child-marriage-victim ever actually speak? Like did he have any lines at all?

Seeing this after watching Good Omens 2 hurts. 😢

“Fucking idiots” I mutter to myself while reading (for the millionth time) about two dumbasses clearly in love with each other CONVINCED that their feelings are one sided

Just now realizing that the reason Woodman Gault recognized Sophie in the beginning of The Frame-up Job is because he’s seen Ma Mystere.

Does anybody know what interview the screen caps are from? I can’t find it.
