🔥 I just want to hear more about the Daemon/Viserys lore.

of course <3 always happy to talk about the blowjob brothers

i tried to make this make sense but i think its still fairly disjointed... sowwy

tldr: what if the incest grooming was GAY

alyssa was groomed by alysanne into believing she was Made for baelon. alysanne was groomed into believing she was Made for jaehaerys. viserys wouldve been raised with that same idea that your younger sister is your god given right. that targaryen brother/sister marriages are the sacred targaryen ideal. just like his parents were. like his grandparents were.

viserys doesnt have a younger sister. but he does have daemon. and since their mother is dead and baelon refuses to remarry, thats the closest hell ever get. viserys would believe that even though daemon isnt a girl, he was still Made for him. still Belongs to him in that same way. and after alyssa dies, he steps into the role of daemons mother (cause even though baelon loves his sons, raising children is a Womans role. and now viserys is doing that boymom emotional incest on top of the targ incest) and grooms him in the same way he was groomed, that alyssa was groomed, that alysanne was groomed. so daemon gets raised believing he was supposed to be viserys wife, that if either of them had been a girl that they wouldve been the ultimate targaryen brother/sister power couple. maybe even believes that he 'failed' viserys in a way by not being a girl. they Should have been together. but they cant be, because theyre both boys.

except they arent exactly. they both have a weird gender fuckery going on that makes it hard for them to fit into the roles assigned to them by society. (viserys is a boygirl, daemon is a girlboy. no i wont elaborate) (yes i will. viserys is the antithesis of what a Man is supposed to be, daemon has 'second sons are faildaughters' syndrome) targaryens are constantly trying to recreate the previous generations, but there isnt a dynamic that fits them exactly. they arent rivals. they arent the warrior brothers that their father and uncle were. (who, to be fair, were also fucking) so they twist themselves into the only dynamic they see left, that they are lovers. viserys specifically falls deep into this. he sees daemon pursing anyone outside of him as a threat to their relationship. cause if daemon isnt his sondaughterbrotherwife, what is he? what are THEY? targaryens dont have normal sibling relationships, they are coupled up from birth. they have to be a couple, its the only way for them to make sense of their love for each other.

its fine for viserys to get into relationships outside of daemon, because hes the eldest son and has a duty to have heirs and continue the family line. its just bad luck he cant have those children with daemon, so he must look elsewhere. but daemon doesnt have that same expectation, to viserys, so daemon should be loyal to him. even if viserys isnt 'loyal' to daemon.

and its that grooming and viserys hold on daemon without fully letting him in that makes daemon go after rhaenyra. if he belonged to viserys because he was his younger 'sister' then certainly rhaenyra should belong to him in that same way. if viserys wont have him (atleast in the way daemon wants to be had) then his brothers daughter is the closest he can get. the closest he can get to viserys in a targaryen-socially acceptable way. but daemon doesnt take into account just how selfish viserys is. that to viserys, this is daemon breaking their arrangement. daemon and rhaenyra both belong to Him, not each other.

i hinted at it above but couldnt really fit it in, but theres also an aspect of an oedipus complex between them. viserys was too much of a girl to be the son that alyssa wanted, so when she had daemon she put all her attention into him. and daemon just happens to grow into the perfect mini alyssa. viserys would see daemon as his chance to gain the affection he was denied from his mother. while daemon was only four when alyssa died, and doesnt really remember her. viserys is the one that raised him. the one that made sure he was fed and bathed and clothed. the one that comforted him and held him. viserys is the only mother he can remember. and he wants his mother to Love him. in the only way he knows how to express love.

Do you think Evka had permission for Antoine's joining or was being sent to train Antoine at a remote outpost supposed to be some sort of punishment?

Ouugh. Bubby. This chapter hurt my soul and I had the idea of pry/ncess realizing that what they said was absolutely awful to say and just. Not knowing what else to say/how to say it because they're grieving for a lie.

Perhaps apologizing to Sun for their words and saying they didn't know what else to say or how to say it. They're both sad. But they're glad they still have one friend. Ouughhh ouch.

WAS what the pry/ncess said truly so awful? They have 0 context for what Sun is feeling right now. They know that what they said upset Sun but tbh they believe its because they brought up Moon again while Sun is grieving so heavily

Should get my thyroid test results back today and I'm actually so nervous lmao what if they're normal and I'm just broken for no reason??? What if they're borderline and the doctor wants to do "watchful waiting" or even says the numbers are "of doubtful clinical significance" like last time??? I have read dozens, genuinely maybe hundreds (a lotttt of time spent on forums lol), of stories of people who were so fucking ill but the doctor would only treat the numbers rather than the symptoms and the numbers didn't look bad enough so they just had to fucking suffer. Loads of people say they feel best with their TSH around 1 (when 'normal' reference range is usually 0.8-4.2 or so); mine has literally never been below 2.5 and even at that level some people say they would struggle to function. My last test had it at 3.5 which is recognised among people with thyroid disease as too high, and among GPs as great.

What especially baffles me is if you are already on medication for your thyroid then they seem to advise not letting it get above 2, and levels above that mean you need more meds. But if you're not already medicated then it's fine?? Literally when I had TSH over 5 one time it said on my record that this "may indicate non-compliance" if I was already on meds - but since I wasn't then it wasn't a problem. Like that just makes no sense to me?? What other illness is managed this way, where you just have to fucking wait to get worse rather than being treated early to prevent getting worse???

AND if you're pregnant or planning a pregnancy also it's suddenly important for it to be under 2.5. In fact I've seen it said that fertility clinics sometimes won't start treatment until it's below that number (risk of MC is a fair bit higher if your TSH is too high, and if it's high and you don't miscarry it can cause problems for both of you down the line). I get that, ofc. But if it's just you who wants to feel good for your own sake then you can go fuck yourself. Tbh if my numbers are iffy again but they won't treat me I'm going to tell them that I'm planning another pregnancy soonish because I kinda want to be taken seriously and if that's what it takes then 🤷🏻‍♀️
