This moment shapes how I interpret where they will go in season 3. In the book, Rhaenyra relies increasingly on Mysaria as her advisor as the war continues. Including during some of the darkest chapters of her reign. I can see the seeds of that here - Rhaenyra committing to a path of taking and holding power by any means necessary and Mysaria supporting her in that, believing that it is justified by the kind of queen Rhaenyra will be (and their apparently now shared belief that the gods have chosen Rhaenyra - very significant that they're on the same page religiously in that, or that Mysaria is choosing to say that she shares that view. With Dae/mon's visions and commitment to Rhaenyra as the ruling queen, that makes three people on this "team" who are all in on mystical fanaticism).

I think it's important that, despite Rhaenyra and Dae/mon's reunion in a prior scene, it is Mysaria who Rhaenyra shares her doubts and moral discomfort with. It is her opinion alone that has that weight. This is due, I believe, both to Mysaria's own history as a low born woman who has suffered due to that, her advocacy for the smallfolk, her support and loyal validation of Rhaenyra, and the long-term fractures of trust in his judgment Rhaenyra had with D/aemon over young Jaehaerys' murder and their prior disagreements over who will "rule" in that relationship.

Rhaenyra is Rhaenyra - she has always craved love and will not deny herself any connection that sustains and comforts her. But I think that, going forward, the "lady wife" role Mysaria can play to her [a role that, as I've argued before in this meta, Rhaenyra seems to crave in her life and has since her youthful bond with Alicent] will be vital to shoring her up, intellectually and emotionally, and that Mysaria's strategic thinking will be important to her as well.

Their bond will be an essential one for Rhaenyra going forward, imo, based on s2 and the book info. I hope the studio is brave enough to let the queerness of that bond be clear as the story continues.

it's just that sometimes you're so... impossibly happy and full of so much incredible joy that you gotta post about it on the internet otherwise you may get on the roof with a bullhorn yknow.

Zeus probably uses the phrase "making love" all these time. Like Hera will just be like "yo I wanna fuck" and he just bats his eyes like "you mean make love" and she has to count to three otherwise she's just gonna whack him, like, bro take off your pants and get on the bed, you got two minutes before the mood changes, you really wanna be pouting about phrasing right now?

(and then his baby mama of the week says "let's make love" and he just "haha no no, it's called fucking when we do it and nothing more, now show me your titties" because "making love" is for Hera only and he will get weirdly enraged if you keep using it after he said to stop)

yeah like. if Roy and riza get married it’s half fake marriage to trap each other in misery self harm style and half being genuinely in love. insane of them

no exactly because they don't love each other really and they don't even hate each other really (except for the ways they do) they just. are each other. you don't love your liver or your heart or your lungs they're just a part of you. and they're just a part of each other. but they should never ever get married

The ultimate form of love is to see no difference between the self and the beloved.

This is the beginning of a long series of Avila postings. We fell into a well we can't get out of. As a token of our appreciation for such a memorable show, here are some of our homemade GIFs (more will come).

You won't believe what he's so devastated about and what comes right after that scene.

(we detail it in the tags so don't read them if you don't wanna get spoiled Avila season1)

Play for Today: Evelyn (BBC, 1971)

"Do you ever get the feeling you're cracking up?"

"Do you?"

"Well, I - I was asking you."

"It's your birthday."

"Oh, I don't have birthdays anymore, I stopped having birthdays a long time ago."

"You're forty."

"That was a very cruel thing to say."

I'm obsessed with Kimberly and Canaan and they occupy 90% of the real estate in my mind right now

Dislike how explicit bls have made it so its not a bl unless two men are ripping each others clothes off and fucking on every available surface in my opinion a true bl is where the symbolism is in how they drink their wine, if they talk about the red thread of fate, if flowers fall from the sky when they meet, and in how their hands brush one (1) time in episode 26
