alicent + (lack of) bodily autonomy
"This felt like a baptism. Stripping the outer layer, and that f-cking collar [laughs]. Her getting into the lake on her own is embryonic, in a way. It’s weirdly a coming-of-age moment for Alicent—the start of the rest of her life, what she’s about to do, and the woman she’s possibly about to become." (x)

i honestly feel like everyone is hating on the cast and crew of house of the dragon. i mean yeah the ending to game of thrones sucked but it’s no reason to hate a group of people who are bringing this new project to life. i mean production for this new show has just started and everyone is making these judgmental comments, everyone is entitled to an opinion but there’s no reason to HATE an artist’s work before seeing it, before its even done.
