THE PRINCE(SS) THAT WAS PROMISED

DAENERYS TARGARYEN YOU WILL ALWAYS BE FAMOUS.

[zephyrrr101]

Prince that was promised comes from Daemon Targaryen's line.

Fan theory.

Don't really know of someone said this before or not but this is what came to my mind.

In House of the Dragon we are all talking about how the prince that was promised came from Rhaenyra line. Now that is right considering how Aegon iii is her son.

But I have some other thoughts. Here are some of them pointed out.

Rhaenyra's son, her own sons (Jace, Luke and Joffery) didn't survive the DoD. But her son's with Daemon (Aegon iii and Viserys ii) survived it.

Now I know Jace, Luke and Joffery were old enough to fight or much rather they had begun Dragon riding where as Aegon and Viserys were just babies. But then let's come to the second point.

Daemon's children: Baela, Rhaena, Aegon and Viserys.

Daemon's surviving children: Baela, Rhaena, Aegon and Viserys.

All of Daemon's children survived. Despite the fact that Baela's dragon was too small and died too even she fought and Rhaena's egg hatched too late too.

Another point:

Daemon Targaryen was Viserys I's heir until after Aemma Targaryen's death and his jape of "heir of the day"

Now, I love Rhaenyra. I really do. But even if we put aside Dance of the Dragon, the line goes like this:

Viserys I → Aegon iii

It is Daemon's son who sits on the throne undisputed. Not one of Rhaenyra's son. But Daemon's son with Rhaenyra.

And we know how things work more with destiny and magic when we are talking of ASOIAF.

Hence, THE PRINCE THAT WAS PROMISED COMES FROM DAEMON TARGARYEN'S LINE.

Now give three cheers for our power couple!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Vaenara Targaryen 2024

So the first time I realized Game of Thrones was going to be very realistic wasn’t when Ned lost his head, but the first time Robert backhands Cersei on screen. I laughed, asked myself why I was laughing (possibly aloud), realized I was in actual f***ing shock, wrapped a comforter around my shoulders, heard something about “I’ll wear it with pride” and said “Well, this is not going to go the way they think” and therefore was barely shocked at Ned’s beheading at all. Very historic has HBO. Anyway I remembered this because I’m in the GoT/ASoIaF fandoms and I’m trying to figure out what House and/or body — and time period— to place my Obligatory Self-Insert (or rather OC Insert) and I noped right out of the Baratheons and anyone who might be Valyrian enough to be a Targ Bride. So far I’m thinking of Brandon the Burner Gets a New Mom. Also came up with a whole different fic about Aerys getting hypersexual and almost timid around women after Duskendale instead of furious at the gender and therefore abusive but Rhaella soothes it by being Mostly Doormat and now they have not just Rhaegar but a bunch of kids. Aerys is, of course, still a lunatic, and so punishes a young daughter for trying her hand at archery (and being better than one of her brothers) with an Out-Marriage and punishes his Hand at the same time (for marrying Joanna and getting ideas above his station) by giving him a be careful what you wish for betrothal between the wild daughter and Tyrion (Jaime is already Kingsguard). Meanwhile politics is happening. To be triple sure the Targs get this right the Gods make sure the girl is named Shiyona (Death to the Night) instead of Shiara (Death of Kings) and Aerys nearly f***s it up anyway lol. Rhaella Appeasement Targaryen is the real hero here.

If someone wants to write that as The Princess Who Was Promised (Quite Literally So), I can throw it at you to do your own take or we can collab here, ao3, or Google Docs.

Just checking.... We all pronounce Miette like My-TAY in our heads, right?

* Adding a note because I FEEL yall's frustration. I feel similar to the way you feel when someone uses the word "casted" instead of "cast" when someone is cast in a show, for example... So... I PROMISE I never said it aloud. It is indeed "Meyet" said in almost one syllable, with a French roll of the tongue in the middle. TODAY I LEARNED. It means Crumb.

[khaleesi-in-the-north]

So… I know you don’t really watch House of the Dragon but Daemon had a vision of the Long Night and Daenerys that seems to point that she’s the prince that was promised or azor ahai but wtf the show basically just made her a mad queen? And neither Daenerys or even Jon killed the Night King so the whole prophecy is useless.

I think the real prophecy was the time we wasted along the way. Both us, the viewers, and the Targaryens obsessed with destiny.

so rhaenyra starts s3 with a god complex, believing herself to be the prince that was promised from aegon the conqueror's dream... but hugh and ulf will betray her, mysaria will misunderstand her, coryls will undermine her, bartimos will underestimate her, daemon will abandon her, her people will turn against her and burn her castle and kill her dragon. and when everyone who accepted rhaenyra as queen rejects her, the only person left to love rhaenyra will be alicent, who never loved rhaenyra as queen but rhaenyra as a person ("she was the vision that sustained him [...] it was his love for her that kept him resolute in his choice of heir."). alicent, who abandoned her gods and duty to go to rhaenyra on dragonstone and appeal to the person beneath the crown ("i cast myself on the mercy of a friend who once loved me."). alicent, who's made a god of rhaenyra, not as queen, but as the girl she read with beneath the godswood ("come with me.").

I think my favorite thing about Fionna and Cake has to be how unapologetically queer it is. In every corner, whether it be a cameo appearance from the gay couple,

a quick visual cue/reference to the pilot,

a questionable line from Brian David Gilbert of all people,

[img: Winter King (on the right) saying "Don't think it hasn't occurred to me!" This is in response to Cake suggesting he kiss Simon (left)]

or actually being integral to the primary or secondary plot.

Seeing such a casual yet important and beautiful inclusion of queerness in this show fills me with such indescribable joy. Without even trying, without even stepping away from it's own story, it's making a statement.

Without going out of its way, it's teaching genuine stories while saying "We are here, we have a place, we have a history, and we're here to stay."
