People might ignore it but henry is as much of a menace. He is just a different type of feral.

No matter how good your actors are, they can only do so much if the script you are giving them is nonsensical. You can have characters who are conflicted and make wrong choices based on their situation. But Alicent giving up Aegon like that, as if her getting in front of Meleys to protect her family wasn't a pivotal point for her in showing her choice to Rhaenys last season? Rhaenyra too shouldn't have even given Alicent the time of day when she already tried and did basically the same as her but got told it was "too late" and an invasion of King's Landing is inevitable at this point. I know they shared a relationship together and do think that even if it was long ago, it still can determine how they interact with each other, but even that being the case, sometimes you need to prioritize some things over others. I don't doubt that Alicent cared about Rhaenyra, but that didn't stop her from advancing her own interests with her family. I don't doubt that Rhaenyra cared about Alicent, but she still put herself and her family first by leaving King's Landing and pretty much never visiting again, even when her father was there wasting away. That's what makes them interesting. The conflict within themselves and choosing one thing over the other. That even if it hurts, some things just turn sour.
Not even mentioning that since it's obvious that Rhaenyra will take the city, this whole interaction could have happened then and with bigger stakes, like Alicent begging for her life and Rhaenyra having to make the choice of whether she dies or is imprisoned or something.
This whole scene gives me the impression that they wanted a dramatic and emotional scene for the end of the season so they came up with this.
I like to think that part of Hans' development and actitude towards war and the destruction it causes the land and it's people is in part thanks to his relationship with Henry.
In each occasion that he has to face the reality of war, right next to him is a person that had to live through those horrors and so he cannot accept the arguments and excuses the rest of the cast makes as "just the way it is"
The person he loves the most and loves him back expirienced it and if he can change that for someone else he has to try.
That's what is so wonderful about their development together as characters, how they bring the best of each other, their stories completely intertwined. The relationship and bond that they have truly is something else, like i don't think i've seen any other developer do such an spectacular job as this.
(Or maybe he does it to get dicked down by Henry more often idk)
Ok, enough of my rant... lest... thou wishes for me to continue?
Pyramus and Thisbe
the month of hyperfixation bears fruit. I am bursting with the need for interaction between these two.

My boy, courage is a thing of honour... but what you're proposing isn't courage, it's foolhardiness.
