They erased Helaena’s gentleness, her belovednesd and her life-ending despair to give to Rhaenyra, they aged down Alicent and made her betray everything she loved for Rhaenyra, they made Cole sleep with Rhaenyra when he never did in the books because he held to his vows, they erased Mysaria’s flaws to make her a side piece for Rhaenyra, they erased Baela’s wildness and tomboyishness to have her be subservient to Rhaenyra, they erased Nettles to make sure Daemon never had a serious committment with anyone but Rhaenyra, they had the Velaryons ignore that Rhaenyra had caused the deaths of two of their members to be subservient to Rhaenyra, they had Laenor just fuck off and abandon everything so Rhaenyra wouldn’t get her hands dirty, they erased the Silent Five so Rhaenyra wouldn’t get her hands dirty, they made Vaemond’s death completely different so Rhaenyra wouldn’t get her hands dirty, they erased Rhaenyra’s racism and calling for a child’s death so Rhaenyra wouldn’t get her hands dirty, they erased Rhaenyra’s own opulence because sTrong InDePeNdAnT wOmEn cAnNot bE gIrLy, they erased Rhaenyra’s own desire for the throne

And I’m expected to believe this show favours Team Green.

Interesting.

Political reunion that some others said ? My eye. They love each other, it’s obvious. They literally speak in their love language. When I said this stupid unscripted kiss between Rhaenyra and Mysaria would have no impact on Daemyra. 😂

Hotd showwriters/whoever is in charge of rha*nicent and Rhae*aria: hmm...what if rhaenyra is....bisexual? And loves....

The book, right there in front of them, open on the page it says: Rhaenyra became more than fond of her good-sister, Lady Laena

Hotd showwriters: OH I KNOW! ALICENT!!!!! HER ABUSER!!!!! We'll have to age her down from 9 years older than Rhaenyra to the same age, take away ALL her agency, ambitions, greed etc and basically throw a self insert in there, but it'll work :)) and the fans will LOVE IT because ITS REPRESENTATION

Book fans upon seeing this; oh my god, no

Showriters/Emma d'Arcy in season 2: y'know what'd be cool? If rhaenyra kisses mysaria after she trauma dumps about the sexual violence she experienced

The fans: oh are you fucking kidding me?!?!?!?

[xcountingstars]

We could have had Cregan x Jace, or heck, even Aeron x Davos, both pairs who had insane chemistry despite less than 5 minutes of screentime together.

But no, instead we got Rhaenyra x Mysaria, despite them having zero chemistry, zero reasons to have a relationship, and zero lead up to their make out session. 🤷🏼‍♀️

HotD writers are seriously giving me whiplash.

(And just to be 100% clear, I am not homophobic or anti-wlw. I just don’t like Rhaenyra and Mysaria together. If it had been Rhaenyra x Alicent, it would have made so much more sense.)

Ijbol 💀 They've made a real mess out of this show.

Regarding the Ending of HOTD 2x6

The whole Rhaenyra and Mysaria thing is unnecessary and forced but at least it's consistent with show Rhaenyra's character—she's a cheating whore. Regardless how I feel about show Daemon, he never cheated on Rhaenyra. It's just baffling how some people don't see it as cheating because Mysaria and Rhaenyra are both women and Daemon’s away after his and Rhaenyra’s argument. Cheating is cheating.

[lizzie-queenofmeigas]

Do you get the impression no one is taking Rhaenyra's affair seriously because it's with a woman?

Oh, yeah, definitely. Straight men wouldn't have an issue with seeing to female characters kissing on screens, the ones I talk to anyway, and non-straight people are desperate for representation so they take anything regardless good or badly executed.

The kiss with Mysaria never happened!

[whateverthought]

Now that the initial wave of Gay ElationTM has passed, I'm kinda disgusted that they had the kiss happen directly after a story of gruesome sexual abuse and assault.

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

[kass-of-the-midlands]

The way HOTD both show and mainstream fandom has treated rape and/or sexual assault for a show that considers itself so progressively high and mighty is an absolutely concerning laughingstock btw. Alicent cannot even have an inkling that Viserys was an abusive fuckward despite it literally being shown on screen. Alicent the teenager is actually seen as a harlot for ‘SeDuCiNg’ the Literal Actual King by reading him a book. Criston is reduced to an incel in response to the girl who knew he was sworn to chastity and got excited when he said no to her. Mysaria (and apparantly the show writers) is completely aokay with being kissed by Rhaenyra who did something v similar to criston straight after she tells a very graphic, completely irrelevent and not even book canon or book implied story about her father who raped and impregnated her. This is seen as a completely aokay sapphic ship. Even after realising she can’t trust the man who groomed her Rhaenyra (and the show writers) have Daemon willingly (????) serving Rhaenyra and Rhaenyra accepting him. Both fandom and writers are the equivalent of fucking wattpad writers.

It kills me that people claim that Rhaenicent and Rhaesaria are supposedly holier than Daemyra in Fire and Blood...

Yes, shipping Rhaenyra with two of the women who ruined her life is the pinnacle of healthy relationships, rather than 'with the man (Daemon therefore) that she always loved, her husband, with whom she had a loving and passionate relationship, with whom she formed a powerful couple, and who, contrary to popular thinking, did not never mentally or physically abused.

And even in HOTD, beyond the unfortunately OCC choking scene, canon in the universe of the show, you're not going to make me believe that Rhaenicent is holier than Daemyra ?

Alicent actively made Rhaenyra and her children's lives hell for 10 years, threatening their lives !

In terms of toxicity, since both are in the show, Rhaenicent beats Daemyra hands down.

And for Rhaesaria, once again, this relationship has no basis, no foundation, no coherence / meaning, it literally comes out of nowhere, and probably won't go anywhere either.

And sorry, but in terms of consistency Daemyra (despite having undergone numerous massacre attempts by the writers) is still more coherent than this stupid ship that is Rhaesaria.

And then, it's going to be really ironic if Mysaria ends up following the path of her book counterpart at the end...

[alicentflorent]

Daemon leaving Mysaria locked up to rot and possibly be executed depending on Rhaenyra’s mood just to come home from his pre divorce psychedelic retreat to find that Mysaria is now Rhaenyra’s right hand woman and lover is karmic justice at it’s finest

[an3-lim]

The lowest ratings are for episodes where they pushed their illogical ships and illogical behavior. Who would have guessed 🤭

[marysblo0d]

Guys why can’t yuri enjoyers just hold hands so we can defeat the real enemy here:
