Jace And Joffrey Velaryon: Seasons 1 & 2

Joffrey throwing Lucerys’ toy into his funeral pyre so his big brother can take it with him into the afterlife 💔

So fucking good !

Hotd showwriters/whoever is in charge of rha*nicent and Rhae*aria: hmm...what if rhaenyra is....bisexual? And loves....

The book, right there in front of them, open on the page it says: Rhaenyra became more than fond of her good-sister, Lady Laena

Hotd showwriters: OH I KNOW! ALICENT!!!!! HER ABUSER!!!!! We'll have to age her down from 9 years older than Rhaenyra to the same age, take away ALL her agency, ambitions, greed etc and basically throw a self insert in there, but it'll work :)) and the fans will LOVE IT because ITS REPRESENTATION

Book fans upon seeing this; oh my god, no

Showriters/Emma d'Arcy in season 2: y'know what'd be cool? If rhaenyra kisses mysaria after she trauma dumps about the sexual violence she experienced

The fans: oh are you fucking kidding 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

hate when critics and fans keep comparing rhaenyra & daenerys, especially their show-versions.

because even with the worst butchering of her character, dany remains the superior character! they are simply NOT comparable, sorry.

d&d may have killed dany, but at least she didn’t end up like a loser.

meanwhile ryan condal & his bad writing squad have written rhaenyra as an incompetent, naive loser who can’t decide anything and doesn’t give a fuck about her dead kids. they made her beg her nasty usurper stepmom for peace? in the name of (white) feminism? this is just trying to humble women into never showing emotion.

she is simply not intelligent, caring nor capable in this show (esp since episode 1x10).

genuinely, how crazy is that? humiliation ritual through and through.

i’m sorry that they did this to you, rhaenyra targaryen, you deserved better!

but s3 will genuinely be worse btw, just be prepared!

don’t waste your life watching this show, go outside <3

Saying you hate team black because it has characters that do immoral things and then stanning team green and erasing Aegon being a rapist in your headcanons and fics is truly something, like how does cognitive dissonance not zap your brain every five seconds?

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!!

Let's clear things up once and for all. The real canon is the books written by GRRM. George may have sold his soul to HBO, but HOTD is still nothing more than poorly written by Ryan and Sara fanfiction. The events that take place in the show are not truly canon. This is more like a filmed AU fanfic.

The real canon is:

Viserys loved Alicent.

Alicent and Rhaenyra were not friends.

Alicent was eighteen years old when she married Viserys. Viserys was not yet thirty at the time.

Helaena is not a dreamer.

Aegon the Usurper is not a depressed boy who was disliked by his parents.

Mysaria and Daemon had a child together who died before he was born.

Criston did not have sex with Rhaenyra or Alicent.

Laena was twenty-two years old when she married Daemon.

In order to become a dragon rider you need to have Valyrian blood in your veins.

Whether Daemon cheated on Rhaenyra or not, he never tried to usurp her or scheme behind her back.

Killing Luke and killing Jaehaerys were not misunderstandings or accidents.

When the war began, the people of the Riverlands immediately supported Rhaenyra, except for the Tully and Brackens. But the Tully were initially neutral, and then supported Rhaenyra, and the Brackens were looking for a reason to fight the Blackwoods.

Corlys eldest illegitimate son is Addam, not Alyn.

Vaemond is Corlys nephew, not his brother.

Rhaena Targaryen's dragon is the Morning, not the Sheepstealer.

Alys charms had no effect on Daemon.

Rhaenys Targaryen has black hair. Rhaenys was not present at the coronation of the Usurper, and she was the one who proposed to attack the capital with all the dragons that the Blacks have.

Daemon really killed Laenor.

After his wedding to Rhaenyra, Laenor lived almost all time in Driftmark.

Daenerys's dragon eggs were laid by Dreamfire, not Syrax.

The marriage of Laenor and Rhaenyra lasted six years, and Rhaenyra and Daemon ten years.

Daemon didn't kill Rhea.

Rhaenyra was never cheated on Daemon.

And as a special aside, Jaehaera Targaryen died before she was ten years old. She and Aegon III have no children together. And Daenerys Targaryen is not a descendant of Aegon III, but his younger brother Viserys II. I'm writing this because at least forty green fans of the show wrote to me who were smart enough to Google that the war would end with the marriage of Aegon and Jaehaera, but not smart enough to Google what would happen after.

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?

Dany and her babies (again)
