I Understand

Pairing: baby Rhaemond/minor baby Jacaela

Can't believe I forgot to post this anyways wrote a fanfix how that funeral scene should have gone 💕

Rhaena and Baela sat with their back to the sea staring at huddles of strangers on Driftmark. Rhaena didn’t have to turn her head to know her sister was also crying but Baela still kept her head high. She appreciated that her sister was able to remain resolved even in the middle of her grief. They had found their grandmother to be a sweet woman but despite being born in Driftmark, she doesn’t know any of her family in Westeros. When they arrived, she still felt comforted when her grandmother held her with the same love as her mother. Rhaena tried to keep her thoughts on Baela but her father standing in her peripheral consumed her mind.

He hadn’t spoken to them since they left Pentos, he had only muttered to her grandparents once they arrived to take the girls. Rhaena’s muddled contemplation of his disregard while he stared into the sea had been interrupted by the brown-haired boy who approached Baela. She watched through the twisted hair that had fallen onto her face as Baela and the boy each shared a soft smile together and reached for each other's hands.

‘That’s sweet of him’, she thought as she observed her sister’s face grow less tired and more assured.

Rhaena gathered the conviction to twist her head towards the boy hoping he would also grab her hand. When he showed her no recognition, she felt the same darkness creeping up in her that reminded her of her father. She fought the urge to look back over to him knowing it would increase her uneasiness.

She decided to wipe her tears and resume staring into the crowds of strangers. The muttered voices from Baela and the boy grew clearer to her as she looked on. They were talking about their dragons. The gloominess she tried to avoid earlier quickly returned and Rhaena felt there’s no point in evading it now. With peculiar timing, the growl from Vhagar loomed over the family and Rhaena looked up. The She-Beast, Rhaena had called her, looked majestic flying through the greying clouds. She hadn’t thought of her mother’s dragon since leaving Pentos and her mind couldn’t help but drift towards her claiming Vhagar. She couldn’t wait and thought of how her father would be looking up at her as she climbed Vhagar’s large side. The eagarness to gain his affection threatened to have her jump up and run towards the dragon but she knew not to leave Baela’s side. Patience is her virtue and claiming Vhagar could wait.

Rhaena continued fantasizing about what her father would say in praise to her when she lowered her gaze from the sky, locking eyes with the shortest boy wearing green. She knew he was one of her cousins from her father’s constant rants about Hightowers and getting rid of any green jewelry gifted to Laena in Pentos. They stood among themselves in the middle of the horde and she didn’t remember any of their names.

Aemond had already surveyed the boring sloth of people after Aunt Laena’s funeral service and was now staring at the sorrowful girl sitting down. His head felt dizzy as he had finally stopped peering at the huge dragon that just flew over them. He wanted to ask his brother if he had seen it, but the smell of wine started to wisp away and he realized Aegon already wandered off. He had been trying to figure out which girl cousin this was that was now looking at him and decided to go to her. His mother was busy chatting with Ser Criston and he knew she wouldn’t mind.

The girl’s facial expression never changed and she didn’t look away like he was expecting. Aemond continued pushing past the Driftmark guest while he continued to study her. Unsurprising to him, she looked as if this was the worst day of her life, completely miserable. Having never lost a family member as important as a mother, he was sure the worst thing that could happen to her is getting mocked and then almost killed by a dragon in the pits.

He got closer and stopped in his tracks when he realized the eldest bastard boy had already been on that ‘side’. Jace turned and they both hesitated to speak to each other. The other girl Jace had been talking to paused and gave Aemond a perplexed look.

Jace and Aemond had never gotten along and Aemond knew the boy’s real father had died in addition to his aunt. Aemond balled his fist up in preparation for the boy to make a snide comment but he said nothing and turned back to the girl so they could continue their whispering. Aemond delayed looking back at the crying girl knowing she was still staring at him. He wanted to just turn back around when he realized she’s one of them. He thought she’ll probably just make the rude remark he was expecting from Jace. Aemond started to turn back, ready to find Aegon and lecture him about getting drunk in public but he accidently caught the girl's glance again. This time he felt embarrassed since he was standing closer now. He knew he should smile to be nice like he was told to do in court, but kept his face straight.

‘I don’t even know this girl, I don’t care’

Aemond lost all the curiosity and confidence he had when he first began his walk towards her. He wanted to turn his attention back to the huge dragon he had been gawking at earlier, but his feet wouldn’t carry him away. He was suddenly too sheepish to take the final steps to her, but too stubborn to retreat. He was still contemplating his decision when he heard Jace talking to the girl’s sister. He started to roll his eyes at the strong boy’s voice but even that was cut off when he heard it.

“That sounds fun, maybe another time since Rhaena hasn't claimed a dragon yet.”

“She can stay with Aemond, he doesn’t go with us either.”

Rhaena. He finally knew which cousin was which. Her still appearance had changed when she squinted at him and shifted on the bench. Jace spilling Aemond’s humiliating misfortune to the cousin he now knew as Baela was enough for him to finish rolling his eyes. Knowing Jace, he had asked the girl if her and her sister would be interested in his favorite activity, racing dragons. He couldn’t believe his ears and thought he might have gone insane in the last couple minutes of his life. His uncle’s daughter, Rhaena, didn’t have a dragon either.

Aemond looked at her face with a new absorption and his feet carried him faster than his brain could keep up with his thoughts. He finally found himself in front of her. Rhaena’s tears had mostly dried on her face and her expression looked as if she was confused why he took so long to come over. The hurt and misery he saw in her eyes when they first looked at each other seemed to have been replaced with serenity and insight. She shyly reached to move her silver hair out of her face and peeked up to get a full look at him. In unison, they both softened their faces and offered a reserved smile to each other. They both knew what the other was thinking and grateful no words were needed to communicate. Aemond seized the moment of understanding between them and grabbed one hand from her lap. Her grasp on him gentle enough for comfort and his firm enough for her to recognize what he meant.

For the first time, he looked away from her and scanned the sea behind her. Rhaena stood to join him and they looked together in a comfortable silence, searching for the big dragon Vhagar.

It’s billed as a summit for democracy. Under U.S. leadership, countries from six continents will gather from March 29 to March 30 to highlight “how democracies deliver for their citizens and are best equipped to address the world’s most pressing challenges,” according to the U.S. State Department.

Although advancing technology for democracy is a key pillar of the summit’s agenda, the United States has been missing in action when it comes to laying out and leading on a vision for democratic tech leadership. And by staying on the sidelines and letting others—most notably the European Union—lead on tech regulation, the United States has the most to lose economically and politically.

One in five private-sector jobs in the United States is linked to the tech sector, making tech a cornerstone of the U.S. economy. When U.S. tech companies are negatively impacted by global economic headwinds, overzealous regulators, or other factors, the consequences are felt across the economy, as the recent tech layoffs impacting tens of thousands of workers have shown.

And “tech” isn’t just about so-called Big Tech companies such as Alphabet (Google’s parent company) or social media platforms such as Meta’s Facebook and Instagram. Almost every company is now a tech company—automakers, for example, can track users’ movements from GPS data, require large numbers of computer chips, and use the cloud for data storage. Rapid developments in artificial intelligence, especially in the field of natural language processing (the ability behind OpenAI’s ChatGPT), have widespread applications across an even larger swath of sectors including media and communications.

This means that tech policy is not just about content moderation or antitrust legislation—two of the main areas of focus for U.S. policymakers. Rather, tech policy is economic policy, trade policy, and—when it comes to U.S. tech spreading across the globe—foreign policy.

As the global leader in technology innovation, the United States has a real competitive edge as well as a political opportunity to advance a vision for technology in the service of democracy. But the window to act is rapidly narrowing as others, including like-minded democracies in Europe but also authoritarian China, are stepping in to fill the leadership void.

The European Union has embarked on an ambitious regulatory agenda, laying out a growing number of laws to govern areas including digital services taxes, data sharing, online advertising, and cloud services. Although the regulatory efforts may be based in democratic values, in practice, they have an economic agenda: France, for example, expects to make 670 million euros in 2023 from digital services taxes, with much of that coming from large U.S. tech companies.

What’s worse is that while other key EU regulations, such as the Digital Markets Act (DMA), target the largest U.S. firms, they leave Chinese-controlled companies such as Alibaba and Tencent less regulated. That’s because the DMA sets out very narrow criteria to define “gatekeepers,” such as company size and market position, to only cover large U.S. firms, thus benefiting both European companies and subsidized Chinese competitors and creating potential security vulnerabilities when it comes to data collection and access.

While Europe rushes to regulate, China has developed an effective model of digital authoritarianism: strangling the internet with censorship, deploying AI technologies such as facial recognition for surveillance, and advocating for cyber “sovereignty,” which is doublespeak for state control of data and information. Beijing has been actively exporting these tools to other countries, primarily in the global south, where the United States is fighting an uphill battle to convince countries to join its global democracy agenda.

And the battle for hearts and minds has implications far beyond tech—it goes to the heart of U.S. global leadership. In last month’s vote at the United Nations to condemn Russia’s brutal invasion of Ukraine, endorsed by the United States, the majority of the countries that voted against or abstained were from Africa, South America, and Asia.

Without a U.S.-led concerted effort to push back against authoritarian states’ desire to define the rules around technology, large democracies such as Turkey and India are also wavering, imposing increasingly authoritarian limits on free speech online. The result is growing digital fragmentation—fragmentation that benefits authoritarian adversaries.

The Biden administration says it wants to see technology harnessed to support democratic freedoms, strengthen our democratic alliances, and beat back the authoritarian vision of a government-run internet.

Here’s how it could help achieve these goals.

First, the administration should map out an affirmative technology strategy, making sure that U.S. workers and consumers benefit from U.S. tech leadership. This means investing in competitiveness and a smarter public-private approach to research and development, an area the United States has underfunded for over a decade.

Tech touches on almost every sector of the U.S. economy as well as international trade, defense, and security, and involves almost every government agency from the State Department’s Bureau of Cyberspace and Digital Policy to the Federal Trade Commission and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency. And while most European countries now have full ministries for digital affairs, the U.S. doesn’t have similarly politically empowered counterparts tasked with coordinating a whole-of-government effort across all government agencies to produce a national strategy for technology. This needs to change.

Second, the administration should take advantage of the bipartisan consensus in the U.S. Congress on the need to push back against China’s growing domination in tech by putting forward a balanced regulatory agenda that establishes clear rules for responsible innovation. In an op-ed earlier this year, U.S. President Joe Biden called for Republicans and Democrats to hold social media platforms accountable for how they use and collect data, moderate online content, and treat their competition. To be sure, a national privacy law is long overdue, as several states have already passed their own laws, creating a confusing regulatory environment.

But this agenda is too backward-looking: Policymakers today are debating how to regulate technology from 20 years ago, when social media companies first emerged. As ChatGPT has shown, tech advancements far outpace regulatory efforts. A balanced agenda would set out key principles and ethical guardrails, rather than seek to regulate specific companies or apps. Banning TikTok, for example, won’t prevent another Chinese company from taking its place.

Third, the U.S. should reenergize its engagement in multilateral institutions. The United States is taking the right steps in endorsing Japan’s initiative at the next G-7 meeting to establish international standards for trust in data flows, known as the Data Free Flow with Trust. The administration has also appointed an ambassador at large for cyberspace and digital policy to work more closely with allies on tech cooperation.

The U.N.’s International Telecommunication Union, which helps develop standards in telecoms, is now directed by American Doreen Bogdan-Martin, which also presents an opportunity to beat back Russian and Chinese attempts to impose government control over the internet and instead reinforce the present private sector- and civil society-led internet governance model.

Washington has led important defensive efforts to challenge Beijing’s system of sovereignty and surveillance and has brought key allies along in these efforts. But it has not done enough to drive an affirmative agenda on technology innovation and tech-driven economic opportunity. The Biden administration has an opportunity now to prioritize tech. There is no time to waste.

These payments, integrated directly into mobile applications, have transformed how we shop, pay and interact with businesses. With the increasing demand for convenience and efficiency, the future of in-app payments and seamless checkout experiences is promising, pushing boundaries and creating new opportunities for businesses and consumers alike.

Introduction: The Rise of In-App Payments

In the past few years, we have witnessed a dramatic shift in how consumers engage with online shopping and digital services.
