“The books are unreliable, so making big changes make sense. I’m so enlightened and fun, this is the true version 🤭”
Bitch, it’s a fucking history book. How do you think we know anything about history?? They wouldn’t create fake dates of birth to just hide your dull as dish water crack ship from being known
What would be the point of George writing the book if “nothings true”?

LUKE WAS FUCKING KILLED AT AGE OF 13!
He refused to fight! It was Almond who was a goddam psychopath who had the urge to chase and kill a fucking boy!!
That’s why I hate HBO, they keep hiring people who seems incapable of reading or at least respecting the LORE !!
I won’t watch this bullshit anymore! By now I am a book purist, who hates the 🥬 and who don’t care that they were extinct, even the boring ass usurper wife Helen. My happiness is that their lineage didn’t mix with Rhaenyra’s gold premium lineage😌
Edit: the fact that the showrunners are pushing the “testosterone” as a motive of a murder is so fucking disgusting! Also they trying to pass it as normal… like in asoiaf book and in real life history Kinslaying is one of the worst crimes !

behind every art of modern rhaenyra where the artist draws her as masc or butch, theres always daemyras trying to prove that rhaenyra is this ultra feminine damsel because she wears pretty dresses and married a man whilst simultaneously ignoring all of rhaenyras established gender struggle at the same time, making their point so futile that they come across as repulsive people when it comes to the subject of lgbtq+ people specifically when it comes to women who don’t conform
rhaenyras story is based upon gender struggles already well set out in westeros i truly don’t understand unless you watched the show with your eyes closed and your fingers in your ears, every time this happens it instills in me that most people who say they like rhaenyra do not actually like rhaenyra because of their unwillingness to accept that rhaenyra is within herself wishes to be different
how do you watch her scene with mysaria in its entirety and including when she says daemon is everything she wishes to be INCLUDING a man and come to any other conclusion

I’ve never really seen anyone talking about this, but I noticed that one of the main reasons why I am team green is because team green feels like an actual team that is in this whole thing together.
Team Green feels connected, united, like a family.
Team Black on the other hand is… meh.
And let me explain why:
Rhaenyra being delusional and thinking that Daemon is actually in love with her when he literally just groomed her since she was a child because he has always been after her title and now wants to be her king consort. They have one of the most toxic, creepy and problematic relationships in the entire fucking show.
Then there is the very awkward and uncomfortable moment of Rhaenyra and Daemon having sex on Laena’s funeral, while Rhaenys, Corlys, Baela, Rhaena and Laenor are mourning the loss of their daughter, mother and sister. How fucking disrespectful is this. And then the fact that they have Laenor “killed” just so they can get married and have their own perfectly blonde targaryen babies.
And Rhaenyra lying about Jace, Luke and Joff to everyone in her very own “team”, trying to gaslight not only Corlys, and Rhaenys but also her own sons into thinking they are trueborn, when even Jace himself. as a child, starts asking questions.
Then there are obviously Rhaenys and Corlys, who for some fucking reason neglected their trueborn granddaughters in favor of some dark haired white bastards their daughter-in-law is trying to pass off as their son’s children. Rhaenys is trying sooo hard to please her misogynistic husband because he so desperately wants his name to go down in history. Then the disrespectful betrothal of Jace and Luke to Baela and Rhaena. Rhaenyra is literally robbing these poor girls of their rightful claim to Driftmark and usurping them. And now, with Luke being dead, Rhaena’s claim dies with him.
Baela and Rhaena losing their mother, and now their father suddenly remarries, and has two blonde boys. Rhaenys losing BOTH her children and then seeing her son-in-law and daughter-in-law getting married soon after that.
Everyone in team black is after their own ambitions. They lie to each other, they don’t trust each other, they suspect each other in different things, they cheat on each other (with each other) and lie about it, they give each other forced ultimatums, and yada yada. All their scenes feel forced, tense, awkward and uncomfortable. They look so miserable with each other.
Team Green in this sense is the exact opposite.
Although their dynamic is far from perfect, obviously, you cannot deny that they care about each other very very deeply.
Alicent loves all of her children, and even while acknowledging their flaws, she still loves them.
Aemond might’ve been a little envious of Aegon, but he would never turn his back on him. He would never betray his brother, be would never try to take his crown from him.
Aegon was far from being a perfect man and king, but, as we know, it was his love for his family, and the fear of them getting hurt that made him a more responsible person and a more protective father, husband and brother. Sure, he is a cheater, but at least he’s honest about it and doesn’t lie to his wife. He is not a hypocrite.
Criston is working for Alicent not for ambition or for self-gain, but because he genuinely loves her, whether it’s romantic or platonic, doesn’t matter.
Helaena would never betray her family, her brothers, her mother. They are all she has. She would never switch sides even if given an opportunity.
And even Otto, arguably one of the main villains of the whole show, still loves his family. Sure, he is ambitious, but he would never become Corlys level of ambitious.
Team Green feels like they are fighting against the enemy all together, they have the same goals, they feel united and you can feel their devotion to each other. Especially after blood and cheese, when they become closer than ever. They’re in this together and only if they stick to each other, they can make it. It feels genuine and honest. They don’t hide anything from each other, they always have their loved ones’ best interests at heart, they would never in a million years betray each other. Yes, they are all doomed from the start, but their dedication and love to each other is truly something else.

Oh and for Alicole, the excuses like :
- Criston consents this time.
- But they love each other.
- Viserys is dead.
- At least they don't have illegitimate children, you can keep them.
You can keep them for yourself.
Criston was also consenting with Rhaenyra I recall.
I don't really care if they love each other. Rhaenyra is in love with Daemon, yet she was insulted as a whore for the brothel episode, and the same for the fact that she had her children with Harwin, whom she liked. Sincere feelings before didn't seem like valid arguments for TG before I don't see why it should be now.
That Viserys is dead doesn't change anything. The principle of Alicent's religion is that sex is only between a married couple and to produce children. Nothing more.
I also remind you that Alicent did not wait for Rhaenyra to have illegitimate children to declare war on her in episode 5. No. All it took was Rhaenyra lying to him about having lost her virginity, and therefore no longer being a virgin.
Alicent is a hypocrite, just like Criston Cole, that's all.
