if it wasnt clear before,
I just knew they were going to delete daemon taking KL for rhaenyra , I just knew it .
Now it’s alicent’s plan and work that got rhaenyra KL and put her on the throne not daemon’s
This show is a joke
TG stans: Septon Eustace said Rhaenyra got cut by the throne! So she got cut!😡
He also said Aegon assaulted servants and Rhaenyra's kids were not bastards. So that's the truth too right?
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.
thinking about benjen walking up to lord commander mormont like “🥺🥺🥺 can my nephew please keep his magic killer wolf?? his father made him sit in the back at dinner 😞”
Aegon IVs top 10 most iconic moments:
10. Naming those hills “Barba’s Teets” and then renaming them “Missy’s Teets” when Barba insults Missy’s breast size.
9. Trying to invade Dorne only to not even make it to shore because his whole fleet was wrecked by a storm.
8. Burning down 1/4 of the Kingswood and killing hundreds of people while trying to build wooden dragons for his Dornish invasion. Then immediately giving up on invading Dorne and pretending like nothing happened.
7. Showing up at Whitewalls, impregnating Lord Butterwell’s 3 daughters, and giving him a dragons egg as a reward.
6. Gifting Blackfyre to his bastard son Daemon.
5. Killing his father, Viserys II, thereby robbing the realm of potentially the best king it may have ever seen.
4. Creating Bloodraven.
3. Helping Daena escape the Maidens’ Vault and impregnating her, thereby both creating Daemon Blackfyre and also indirectly causing Baelor the Blessed to kill himself.
2. Spreading rumors that Daeron is his brother’s bastard just to undermine his own heir purely out of spite.
1. Legitimizing all his bastards on his death bed so he can keep being everyone’s problem for another 80 years.

Aegon II dickriders want so badly for him to be this relentless badass rising from the ashes of defeat to seize victory and take revenge on his enemies, but in reality he was just a lazy spoiled man child who got his ass fried in his first battle (a 2v1 ambush with Vhagar on his side), spent like half a year high of pain killers, escaped and took Dragonstone solely because Larys Strong did all of the work and planning (and still managed to get crippled by a 13 year old girl riding a baby dragon), got super lucky with Rhaenyra just happening to stumble into his grasp thanks to no doing of his own, and then when he took back Kings Landing could not even hold the city for half a year before his own councilors poisoned him and replaced him with a depressed third grader, because as it turns out he actually has zero leadership skills and was never anything but a worthless puppet that the traitors who raised him up were all too glad to get rid of the moment it suited their needs.
"History will paint you a villain"
Fourth wall breaking to make us believe what they're putting in Rhaenyra's mouth.
Alicent went to Rhaenyra's wedding wearing the colors her House use for war, which created the Green and Black teams. She knew what she was doing.
Alicent was the only one who actively hated Rhaenyra's children to be bastards. Corlys and Rhaenys didn't really care, Rhaenyra's own husband didn't care, Viserys was totally happily in denial. Cole hated it, but his opinion doesn't matter.
Alicent made it a big deal, raised Aegon to be scared of Rhaenyra when he had no true animosity towards his sister before. And telling her son to spare Rhaenyra after years of telling him he was a challenge for her and would die if she becomes queen, was silly.
She helped put Aegon on the throne, and when learnt she was wrong to do so, started to show disdain for him that led Aegon to take his dragon to battle and get burnt.
Then, at his weakest state, she accepted Rhaenyra's deal that includes the murder of her son. The very son who did not want to be king in the first place. Just so she could run away with Helaena and her daughter. She is literally fleeing what she helped causing. She could protect Helaena and Jaehaera and stay in KL to be by her sons' sides and accepts the same sentence she put on them. But no, she still wants a way out of this mess.
So, the writers telling us, through Rhaenyra of all people, "Alicent is a only a victim of patriarchy and will be paint as a villain" is so stupid. Yes, she is a victim. But it doesn't justify all she did. In season two, she marvels at how messed up her boys are, when all their life they heard her complain about Rhaenyra and her bastard children, how Aemond lost an eye and how Lucaerys should have lost his too, that Rhaenyra will murder Aegon in cold blood when she becomes queen (before he usurped her).
So, yes, she is a villain and history will rightfully paint her as such. That doesn't make her a bad character, nor does it mean all victims become villains in turn; Rhaenys is a victim of patriarchy too, Rhaenyra and her mum, the servant girl who Aegon sexually assaulted, all the women of the story are victims of that.
