The choice to make HotD a lesbian divorce drama would have been IMPECCABLE if they had leaned into the Rhaenyra/Laena and lesser but imo still present Daemon/Laenor implications in the book. Daemon genuinely loving Laena and killing men for her while also saying that she's almost as pretty as her brother. Rhaenyra and Laena growing "fond and then more than fond" of each other. Cowards!!!!! This could have been the worst polycule of all time!!! It would have made the Rhaenicent divorce even more bitter!! Never forget or forgive how they shied away from the absolutely rancid vibes here. COWARDS!!!!
I had no idea I was being robbed like that how very dare they. I'm outraged, I'm aghast, I had already thought that part of Alicent's deal was that she was jealous both of Laenor getting to be Rhaenyra's confidant and friend and Harwin getting to be all that and her secret love. The blinding rage she would feel at another woman getting to be her friend and lover while also being publicly married to her older male relative would have been impeccable. I'm so mad. Also Laena's actress was super hot so that's a waste. I will sulk about this for an undecided period of time.
