People who sing Rheagar and Lyanna is a love story are not getting a subject of the story their story echoes, Bael and the bard. In the current timeline, we have two other stories, that echo that Sansa and Jon, who were both held hostage and had to comply under the threat of death Sansa was molested on her wedding night, Jon was just raped and yes, in both stories, there was a kidnapping. both Sansa and Jon’s marriages did protect them and so did their status as a bastard protected them from death so if you look up on regarding Rheagar Lyanna‘s marriage, protected her from something and having a bastard did(from what I don’t know) but she was raped and she was kidnapped. our author has always pointed that when adults put children in sexual positions when they’re too young, for it didn’t die by that Lysa died to Peter because she raped him Drogo, and Viserys died to Daenerys  because they put her in that position. let’s not romanticize this not even an author does that 
Well said, dear anon. People often seem to forget that the Bael the Bard story is a negative story and being associated with that tale is not a good thing. We have three, actually four if we include Jon’s gender reverse version, bard figures (Bael, Rhaegar, Baelish, and Ygritte). Three of the four of them are outright villains who prey on a ‘Stark Maiden’. Based on that it makes sense that the second tale is as equally fucked up as the rest. Rhaegar and Lyanna are not a love story. To assume that it is, is an insult to poor Lyanna.
#answered#lyanna stark#Jon Snow#anti rhaelya#never mind the fact that forced marriage continue to pop up in Jon’s narrative at an alarming rate#(Gilly; Jeyne/Arya; Alys; Sansa)#that is four northern girls being the victim of forced marriages#or in Alys case being almost forced into one#a northern girl forced into a marriage#that alludes to Lyanna#it can only allude to Lyanna and anyone who assumes otherwise is being obtuse#Jon is being prepared through other Northern girls for the horrible fate Lyanna went through#and it’s going to be horrible for him#for all his life he wanted to be a trueborn#and he will get it in the worst way imaginable#can you imagine the guilt he would feel once his true parentage is revealed#jon is gonna wonder whether lyanna hated him when she was forced to carry him on term#he will think he was unwanted by Lyanna#because why wouldn’t she?#ugh I am almost making myself cry just for thinking about this#if I don’t get Jon getting definitive proof that he was loved and therefore wanted by Lyanna (hopefully through Bran’s greenseer powers)#then grrm will be catching these hands
