harpy hare, where have you buried all your children?

[batmess]

Idk. The way I personally see it, the sUbvErSiOn in Rhaegar's storyline is NoT that a hot blonde twink who plays the harp is actually a Machiavellian rapist who single-handedly destroyed Westeros instead of saving it. The subversion isn't even that the prophecy that was supposed to save people actually killed them. The subversion, imo, is that Rhaegar, having the typical fantasy attributes of a hero (his idiosyncrasy and his gender), instead of saving Westeros as he was supposed to, died. He died.

He died. Without accomplishing anything.

He was the only one who knew and gave a fuck about the prophecy, the only one who had the bigger picture and wasn't so deep into the political game, the only one who was trying to figure out a possible solution. He was good, people loved him, he should have succeeded, he would have succeeded if this was a different story, a more predictable sorry. It should have been him.

And he got killed. And instead of that guy, who was decent and good and idealistic, the only one who was, the kingdom is left to Robert, Tywin and the twins. You are yapping day and night about Rhaegar only looking after his cock when in reality, Rhaegar was the only major male character in the rebellion's timeline, with the exception of Ned, that gave fuck about sth that wasn't his own cock. And he lies dead while Robert the actual rapist, Tywin, the actual murderer and the twins, the actual murderers/schemers, aka all your faves, are doing whatever the fuck they please with the power they very unjustly possess.

In some media, subversion is a question of morality, a plot twist, a "the tragic fallen hero is actually the villain" arc. I don't think that's the case with that character. The way I see it, subversion here is about narrative progression. We would normally expect a classic high fantasy hero like Rhaegar to succeed in his quest or at the very least to achieve his purpose after sacrificing himself in a blaze of glory. Not here. Here the hero both fails and falls, and we are struck by the ruthless realism of the game, intentions don't matter, ideals don't matter, everything is shot to hell because the other guy was simply better with the sword. And when we think it's all over and this world is literally doomed to be eaten alive by the corrupted traitors that govern it long before the long night comes, here comes Rhaegar's younger, exiled, uneducated, powerless, enslaved, forgotten sister and suddenly it's not over. It is her who brings the dragons back, it is her who is going to fulfill the prophecy along with his forgotten bastard son Jon (not gonna go into TPTWP debate let's assume it's both of them). That is the subversion. That's the full extent of it. I think that's a substantially richer take than treating him like fucking Griffith from Berserk or sth but whatever.
