Drew my favorite freak, Aemond <3
AU!Lucerys wip :3 — Ignore the questionable quality, all I have of this rn is an old screenshot😭
HOTD AU where when Aemond demands Luke cut out his eye, Luke goes: fuck it, if it’ll finally shut you up, and gouges out his eye right there and then in Storm’s End. Can you imagine the utter chaos? You’d have
- Lord Baratheon freaking out because he was a huge dick to that kid and now said kid just cut his own eye out under his roof. A prince just cut his eye out and his mom, A DRAGON RIDER, is 1000% going to blame him for
- Aemond - I have never thought before I acted - Targaryen finally going “hmmm you know what, now that you’re bleeding and your eye is on the floor, maybe I was a bit too intense about a childhood accident
- Alicent throwing up because this was a DIPLOMACY MISSION and her son demanded his NEPHEW cut out his own eye
- Rhaenyra fuming because her son was on diplomacy mission and he came back WITHOUT HIS EYE
- Otto Hightower: this is going to ruin the world tour
I’m not sure what would happen afterwards but I’m 100% sure Luke would get back safely because Aemond would just be standing there awkwardly like “I didn’t think he’d do it! And damn why doesn’t this eye for an eye thing make me feel better???”
I tried to imagine what type of armor Aemond would wear and this is what I came up with ⚔️
It wanted it to be sturdy while still allowing him to move freely, and the color palette to stay in the black, gold and green tones that characterize his family.
Quick portraits of Ewan Mitchell ✨
Absolutely loved his portrayal of Aemond, can’t wait to see more of him in season two !
Please someone do fanart of this I'm begging you it would be adorable-
Just to add on to my earlier ask.
Drogo is massaging and oiling his daughters hair, danys is already braided and she’s letting the oil work it’s magic, and waiting to braid her daughters hair. She looks over and notices aemond creeping closer and closer to them, being very subtle (he’s not), asking questions on what they’re doing. She knows that this boy is going to be her son in law so she just shoves him into drogos arms so he can get his hair done next. That boy would just be catatonic to have his future father in law touching his hair, even worse when he asks him questions about himself, his interests, wants to spar with him one day. He’s trying not to preen at the touches.
It gets worse when his hair is oiled and dany sits behind him to braid it. No hate to Alicent but she’s not the best mother, and aemond nearly dies when he experiences true motherly love. Dany also asks him questions about himself, his ambitions, maybe even asks him for his opinion on a crown matter. Poor man is in absolute heaven, he’s never leaving, might get down and propose then and there.
Another girl dad drogo take. His daughter tells him that helaena loves bugs, he takes it upon himself to bring her bugs when he knows that he’ll see her.
i know a lot of ppl might say that aemond would find drogo completely terrifying, but i feel like he would admire the fuck outta him. like at a “oh fuck mom i wanna be like HIM” level.
let’s talk about it now:
aemond prides himself at being a warrior, a soldier, a skillful and intellectual swordsman, a sort of man that would never hesitate to enter the battlefield. he spent the rest of his boyhood training, honing his skills, studying, and becoming this absolute menace. and here’s this dothraki khal, a warlord with such a badass reputation and cool culture and not to mention being the father of his crush.
like aemond would eat that shit! dude would be DROOLING. imagine if he witnessed drogo tearing out a throat. no sword, no knives, just his bare hands. he’d be in the courtyard the next day like “teach me teach me teach me”
don’t get me started on dany and aemond. dany will look at alicent and say “those two [points to aemond and helaena] are mine now. ah, no argument. you can stay with … that one. yeah him. but those two are mine, i’ll serve you the adoption papers on the morrow.”
aemond has zero complaints, and helaena is too busy playing with the exotic bugs drogo brought her.
If you see me getting manipulated by this man, leave me alone because this is EXACTLY where I'm meant to be.
My favourite war criminal 💚
That's crazy if you think about it
welcome back thramsay!!!!!🥰🥰😍😍
on god, he may have had zero PREPARATION but he was smart like if they did as he said they would have already won the fucking war like listen to the guy I know he's shit but he's smart your ment to listen to your king not undermind him the only dumb thing he did was replace otto as hand because otto would have agreed with every one of his takes like I need daeron to be trying to push for aegons ideas I really do I need a smart duo
Let's see, Aegon was right about...
1. Considering smallfolk
2. Securing Harrenhal before Daemon builds an army
3. Securing Grover Tully's support after Lucerys' death
4. Burning Gullet's blocade sooner
5. Wanting a dragon to accompany Criston and Gwayne (they could've killed Moondancer and captured Baela)
And STILL many people are saying he was a dumb king! Even with him not recieving any preparation, his ideas would've eliminated the biggest problems that the Greens are facing now.
why would they listen to that man anyway I sure wouldn't
Viserys: Did none of you hear what I just said? Helaena: I’ve been zoned out for the last two and a half hours. Aegon: I got distracted. Aemond: I don’t like you and ignoring you was a conscious decision.
so true like I hate how people fault for her for it because added to it her father was actively telling her that rhaenyra would have to put alicents own flesh and blood to the sword and then rhaenyra has bastards (not blaming her she need heirs) but it just strengthen alicents fear of her own being killed.
so without a doubt I would to conspire to put one my sons on the throne most likely a smart one who's not stupid but obvi the lords wanted the first born son so yeah I'd do it what mother (or parent or father) wouldn't want their child to sit the throne and rule like I fucking would like hell yeah make me the queen mother idc how history wanna portray me if I got one of my own kids on the throne than fuck me with a chainsaw I'd be living
Not gonna lie.
If my bitch ass husband had me give birth to four children. And three of them being boys and not naming any of them his heirs no matter how much he cried and complained about wanting a son.
Yeah I would have taken the throne and put my son on it.
THIS those kids are so fucking interesting to me like those four where screwed the moment they were all born, aegon was like most likely an infant when people started to think about him being on the throne instead of rhaenyra like their all so tragic helaena being cursed to know that she and her siblings and children will die is just *chefs kiss* aemond losing his eye due to claiming a dragon agted being bullied for not having one, daeron being sent away to live at old Town not really knowing his siblings all that well but willing to die to protect and avenge his family is just *cries* alicent the mother out living all of her children (and I think grandchildren 2) and hating the colour green, the same colour of the dress she wore to be her own person to defend her children and fight for them
like obviously the team black/team green divide is stupid and missing the point of the dance and like obviously the show is written with a rhaenyra bias but likeeeeeee. HOW can you not be endlessly compelled by how irretrievably doomed the team green kids are. how can you not be intrigued and endeared by how narratively fucked these poor stupid teenagers are. pov: you were born to be a weapon in a civil war started by people who don’t care about you. that is the reason for your existence. you are obviously fated to die young and tragic and everybody knows it. you are a team green kid.
honestly tho they so would like yes they have a dysfunctional family but they care about each other they'd do a lot for each other, and like they want me to believe that show aemond is aemond from the book like I'm sorry but that is two diffrent people so glad the shows it's own canon and the books are their own canon
Just thinking about how book Alicent and Aemond react to the way their show version treat Aegon kill me 😂
Alicent: what's this bitch is doing to my sweet son? Oh no–
*Show Alicent slap Aegon*
Alicent:...
Aegon: mother? Are you ok–
Alicent: *throw the remote and break the TV*
Alicent: *hugs Aegon tightly, almost suffocating him*
Aegon: M-Mother, can't breathe–
Alicent: Shh, it's ok now, my love. Mother loves you, darling. No more nasty TV for you.
Aemond: what is happening? W-wait don't tell me...
*show Aemond trying to kill Aegon*
Aemond: *face go blank* my king?...
Aegon: hm?
Aemond: forgive me...
Aegon: oh come on it's just a stupid show no need–
Aemond: not that, I'm apologizing for what I'm about to do...
Aemond: *pull his sword out and put it on his own neck*
Aegon: wha... WHAT ARE YOU DOING???!
Aemond: PLEASE DON'T TRY TO STOP ME–
Aemond: *suddenly fall to the ground*
Aegon: *look back up and see Daeron standing there with a flowerpot in his hand*
Daeron: you're welcome.
New chapter is out! My favorite one yet just because I like the way I wrote!!!
Dipping myself into the house of dragon world!
Dipping myself into the house of dragon world!
i felt inspired to draw a modern Aemond (it’s just Ewan in that green outfit he wore on red carpet but with Aemond’s sapphire eye:D- can’t remember the name of the event but you’ll recognize)
As an artist, his features are really beautiful to draw so another up-close portrait may be posted tonight 👁️
Ewan Mitchell as Aemond Targaryen in House of the Dragon
As a young woman i know that i wouldn't make a good mother, and i knowladge that. This is why i don't plan to have childeren.
I think this is why i sympathize with Alicent so much.
I feel like she know she wasn't ready to be a mother, even when she was a adult she wasn't ready but she became a mother at 16, the very same age with me and now she has four kids.
I am not saying her abusing her kids was right, if i were her i would try my best to be a good mother and i think this was her trying her best to be a good mother. Unfortunatly she didn't know better
my queen <3
You know what I want to see, a pirate, or Arena fighter or dragonkeeper or any kind of 'man' job reader with yandere hotd, like I like the trope of reader being sweet and nice but that's overused, I NEED BADASS READER WHO CAN AND WILL FIGHT THE TARGARYENS FOR HER FREEDOM OR CAN KEEP UP WITH THEIR VIOLENT TENDENCIES. You feel me?
how is otto hightower the sanest person on the greens side rn. the bar is in hell.
(helaena my darling doesn’t count, she’s not on a side).
