THROWBACK TO THIS DISASTER INTERVIEW ABOUT EPISODE 9 (THE GREEN COUNCIL) π€‘
1. About Alicent's 'annoyed' feelings about Aegon becoming King!!!! (Because apparently there was NO valid reason to fear that her family would be wiped out if Rhaenyra, with Daemon's help, took the Iron Throne) Sure, Daemon would be as merciful as Rhaenyra (her ideal heir to the Iron Throne and besty) and spare Aegon, Aemond, Daeron and Helaena ππ
2. About Fire and Blood accounts of Rhaenyra's weight. *Note that Helaena was also recorded as being plump from childbirth, not just Rhaenyra.*
3. About what Alicent would have done, had Rhaenys not escaped King's Landing and remained her prisoner. *While claiming that Alicent lets men 'steamroll' her, Hess also claims that Alicent would have the agency of letting Rhaenys live as a prisoner of war* π Kilner also throws some shade , dismissing Alicent's attempts at a unviolent resolution as 'still working within the patriarchy'.
4. About the choice of making adult Aegon a rapist right off the bat. Remember, kids. He's still a grey character. At least he's not sadistic like Joffery Baratheon. π₯΄π₯΄π₯΄ Also, let's just ignore the actor's protest against that questionable writing choice before filming. They let him improvise in the end anyway, as a consolation prize. ππππ₯΄
