Assuming he's watching from the afterlife, what do you think is Daemon Targaryen's opinion of his s great-grandson and namesake? Or like his opinions about his descendants in general? I imagine him being low-key disappointed about Aemon wielding Dark Sister because he isn't extra enough and also facepalming a lot during Baelor's reign.

Love this question anon!!! ❤❤❤

I've actually discussed this so many times with @naomimakesart and we both laugh over how disappointed he would have been with some of his descendants.

He would have leapt out of his skin at the Maiden's Day Cattle Show lmao, his son being presented with so many fine beauties only for Aegon III to not be interested in any of them. "Rhaenyra!!! Are you sure this one's actually the fruit of my loins?"

But he would have been super chuffed with Viserys II marrying an older beautiful woman like Larra Rogare and begetting children such a young age. Such a proud papa :')

He would have also been very proud of his daughters, particularly Baela who was cut from the same cloth as him. Escaping execution twice (with her head literally on the block) and running off to marry Alyn Oakenfist and being a boss ass bitch- these are virtues Daemon always hoped to instil in his children 😆

But it wouldn't last because Daemon definitely suffered a coronary or two because of Baelor: MY GRANDSON DID WHAT???? NOT EVEN ONCE??? *throws chair across afterlife* 🤬🤬🤬 *rebukes Baelor and never mentions his name again*

He would have been impressed with Aemon's military prowess but highly displeased with the choice to be a celibate Kingsguard lmao. Too goody goody for Daemon, the old devil. "Couldn't be me!"🤷🏼‍♂️

I think he would have been highly supportive of Aegon IV sowing his wild oats, and secretly of Daemon Blackfyre too ("that's what you call a namesake") but the royalist in him would have been impressed with Bloodraven's ruthlessness, and considered him worthy of wielding Dark Sister - not to mention his love of the beautiful Shiera Seastar.

He would have facepalmed at Duncan Targaryen giving up the crown for Jenny though. "Women are fine delights, but who gives up a kingdom for one? Again, couldn't be me!"🤦🏼‍♂️

He would have rolled his eyes at Rhaegar lmao "another bookish nerd, great🙄" but when he ran off with Lyanna his interest would have been piqued again, and the ensuing civil war would have brought back fond memories of the Dance... but not the outcome though 😓 (he would have jumped off a dragon to stab Robert through the head too tbf). Daemon probably had to lie down for a while after the reign of House Targaryen came to an end in 283 AC...

Naomi and I once discussed how Daemon would be so mad at Ned for allowing Jon to join the Night's Watch, his great x8 grandson doomed to celibacy without a woman in sight, but when he'd see Jon with Ygritte or Val he'd nudge Ned in the ribs and say that he was a red-blooded Targaryen and a proper lad™, for you couldn't keep a Targ away from women for too long. FYI Daemon's head is going to explode when/if Jon x Dany hook up. He's rooting for Dany so hard, her biggest fan.

Daemon is currently sitting on a deckchair sipping an old fashioned, wearing a Targaryen Restoration t-shirt and a hat with "Make Westeros Targaryen Again" waiting for their paths to cross like the rest of us 😌

Dearest Alyn,

I'm thrilled to know that you liked the books; I made sure to 'borrow' the particularly exciting ones.

As much as I appreciate your concern for my library card, I'm afraid I've used my classic Slytherin resourcefulness for this one.

Rest assured, no one will be looking for those books.

Anyway, tell me sometime what they're about! I really want to know :D

Your Literary Lifter,

Val
