So unbelievably accurate.

P.S I'm so happy to find someone who agrees that Aegon will be gentle. Is it just me, or do a lot of people seem to think Aegon would be rough in bed? I've cemented the opinion that this man would never have the heart to be too rough (unless you wanted it)

Pay attention to the names of funkos of Rhaenyra on Syrax and Aegon on Sunfyre. Rhaenyra's funko is called “The Queen Rhaenyra with Syrax," while Aegon’s funko - "Aegon Targaryen with Sunfyre." 🤡

I'm reading some responses on Funko's official account and I want and don't want to buy a new Aegon Funko at the same time. On the one hand, I want to support merch with my favorite character, on the other hand, I don't want to give any money to a company that treats fans like shit.

was daeron justified in burning thousands of innocents because his nephew didn't pass the vibe check?

i don't remember making a post about daeron, so are you just randomly sending me this ask? why are you expecting me to "justify" what daeron did when i wasn't even addressing it in the first place?

daeron did what he did because his 2yo nephew has been literally torn to pieces. i don't think it's any more "justified" then b&c, the sacking of lannisport and the enslavement and kidnapping of innocent women, aemond burning the riverlands, rhaenyra placing a bounty over maelor and jaehaera and etc. etc.

no one - from both sides - is "justified" to commit war crimes that result in innocent people being killed. that includes your faves and mine's. you can understand why this character acted the way they did without "justifying" their fictional war crimes.

Sunfyre moved his wing to shield Aegon from Vhagar's fire.

He landed on his wounded belly, which means even though he fell out of the sky backwards, he angled his body to avoid crushing Aegon.

Eventually, when Aemond found him, he curled up around his rider.

Aemond baby, get behind me.

They erased Helaena’s gentleness, her belovednesd and her life-ending despair to give to Rhaenyra, they aged down Alicent and made her betray everything she loved for Rhaenyra, they made Cole sleep with Rhaenyra when he never did in the books because he held to his vows, they erased Mysaria’s flaws to make her a side piece for Rhaenyra, they erased Baela’s wildness and tomboyishness to have her be subservient to Rhaenyra, they erased Nettles to make sure Daemon never had a serious committment with anyone but Rhaenyra, they had the Velaryons ignore that Rhaenyra had caused the deaths of two of their members to be subservient to Rhaenyra, they had Laenor just fuck off and abandon everything so Rhaenyra wouldn’t get her hands dirty, they erased the Silent Five so Rhaenyra wouldn’t get her hands dirty, they made Vaemond’s death completely different so Rhaenyra wouldn’t get her hands dirty, they erased Rhaenyra’s racism and calling for a child’s death so Rhaenyra wouldn’t get her hands dirty, they erased Rhaenyra’s own opulence because sTrong InDePeNdAnT wOmEn cAnNot bE gIrLy, they erased Rhaenyra’s own desire for the throne

And I’m expected to believe this show favours Team Green.

Interesting.

Helaena: When I told you to bring something back from the beach I meant like a seashell or something!

Aegon, struggling to hold a seagull: Well you didn’t fucking say that!

[alicents4lawyer]

It’s actually not funny that Viserys neglected his children with Alicent and it doesn’t make him look better, it actually makes him look worse

Like what kind of asshole cuts open his wife for a son without even telling her what’s going on, then marries his daughters best friend, to then neglect the children that he forces her to have

[bietrofastimoff23]

Criston, in book: a cold-blooded, ruthless, calculating, ambitious knight who skillfully eliminated others from his path, had a direct involvement in the coup, the one who convinced Aegon to become king and offered Aemond the post of regent.

Criston, in show: a single mother.

[theflorasdiary]

still mourning this loss

[very-straight-blog]

I don't think there is any redemption for Aegon. No matter what he did, people will always say "but Dyana..." That 1 scene truly ruined his character forever.

Yes, because the screenwriters made this scene the first one for an adult Aegon. The first impression is the strongest. And in general, Tom has eight minutes of screen time in the first season, and five of them is a discussion of Dyana's rape. I'm not surprised he's hated.

manifesting for a scene of aegon smashing his deadbeat father's ugly ass legos

[greenqueenhightower]

The primary reason I love the Greens is that they are so messed up. They are not perfect, they are not disinfected and favored by the narrative, and they are raw to the bone; they are real.

Aegon is as real as a devastated and soul-crushed father gets whose grief translates to anger and violence. Helaena’s silent inner turmoil and anguish haunt the Red Keep. Alicent has become a wreck as she weighs this tragedy the only way she knows how: against her own failed moral compass, holding herself responsible.

Otto sees his strings of power stretch and snap as he pursues the unattainable dream once more. Criston feels unworthy and consoles himself with the deception that he remains unsullied by still bearing a white cloak to his name, having been absolved of his original oath-breaking years before. And Aemond refuses to acknowledge any weakness or softness in front of his family so he seeks consolation elsewhere.

This green family doesn’t know how to process emotions, doesn’t know how to grieve together, and can’t find solace in each other’s suffering despite yearning for comfort. Otto doesn’t know how to comfort Alicent, Alicent doesn’t know how to comfort Aegon, and Aegon doesn’t know how to comfort Helaena.

Larys exerts his influence and puppeteers Alicent to his own liking by giving her a much-desired grasp of agency over political affairs. Alicent finds escape in undiscovered indulgences that give her the intoxicating illusion of control over a lifetime of servitude. Criston succumbs to the addictive drug of being desired and wanted on equal terms. The Greens live in a vicious circle of unhealed trauma, a bottomless pit of fears and insecurities, and a tangled web of deception and control.

They are wounded, dysfunctional, and forsaken, and that makes them so intriguing.
