Blood of my Blood
Tumblr media Tumblr media
After witnessing the Queen slapping her brother one evening, Rhaenyra decided to not let her hateful relationship with Alicent stop her any longer from getting close to her half siblings.
Masterlist (requests are currently open for now)
After putting her baby boy, Joffrey to sleep, Rhaenyra turned to the doors of her chambers to see her two boys Jace and Luke peering inside.
"Mother?" Luke asked. "Come in, sweet boys," Rhaenyra said in a soft tone, "Your brother is now sleeping, so we must speak a little quieter, alright?"
They nodded and approached the Heir. Rhaenyra frowned a little as she noticed her boys' concern expressions. "What is it, my lovelies?" she asked as she knelt down in front of them, gently placing her hands on their arms.
"Can you please come with us and check on our Aunt and Uncles?" Jace asked, "I mean, you don't have to, but... we hope you can."
Rhaenyra frowned, "Why do you want to check on them?"
"Jace and I were playing with them, and the Queen yelled at all of us," Luke said, looking upset by the memory. Rhaenyra tried to stay calm outside but inside she was boiling with rage for the Queen to yell at her boys and her siblings just because they were playing together. "We even got Helaena to play with us, but then Jace and I ran out to get you."
"Can you please do something?" Jace asked. "Please mother, tell the Queen we won't play with them, so she doesn't need to harm them."
Rhaenyra froze by those words. Does the Queen hurt them? She thought back to all those time she walked past them, she didn't look enough to see if the Queen had harmed them in any way, but every time she was close enough, the Queen was there to step in between them, or they will glance at her with fear as if she could harm them as well.
Rhaenyra looked at her boys and stood up, "Let us go."
Her boys quickly led her to Aegon's chambers, and she froze when she saw Ser Criston Cole looking at the doors, his body was tensed, looking as if he wanted to go inside to stop whatever was happening.
Rhaenyra quickly walked closer, and her former knight looked over at her, his worried expression changed to natural, but the Heir didn't pay attention to him after she reached to the doors. She opened them quickly and stepped in with her sons as she heard the Queen yelling at her children,
"Have you lost your minds?! She will kill you all!"
Slap!
Rhaenyra froze when she saw Alicent had landed a hard slap across Aegon's face. "What is the meaning of this?!" the Heir asked loudly. The Queen and the children all turned to her, but her eyes were glaring at Alicent.
Sister, Aegon wanted to say but kept quiet, not wanting to anger his mother anymore at the moment but there was a flicker of relief in his eyes when he saw her.
"It is not of your concern, Princess," Alicent said in a calm tone. Rhaenyra ignored her at the moment and her eyes flickered between her siblings.
Little Daeron, only eight, was holding into Aemond's arm tightly as in hope he would protect him for harm, while Aemond was standing in front of him and Helaena, as if shielding them for their mother.
Rhaenyra's eyes flickered back to the Queen. "Jace, Luke, please take your aunt and uncles to chambers," she said in a kind tone but her eyes were anything but kind, as she glared at the woman who was once upon a time her closes friend.
"My daughter and sons will be going to their chambers, thank you," Alicent said, her eyes looked at her children in disbelief when they attempted to flee with the Heir's sons.
"No."
The Queen looked at Rhaenyra when she spoke.
"I am the Queen," Alicent said. "And I am the Heir," Rhaenyra said as she stepped closer, "I am a Targaryen by blood, you are nothing." Alicent stepped back as if she got slapped. "You gave birth to my siblings, but they are Targaryen. They are blood of my blood, and you will never lay a hand on any of them ever again!"
Alicent's teary eyes glared at her, but the Princess didn't care, and she definitely wasn't intimidated. "Do not attempt me, if you will indeed lay a hand on them, I shall make you regret that," Rhaenyra warned. She turned to her siblings who stared at her in surprise. Her eyes soften, "Let's go."
Jace and Luke took the lead and led the siblings to the family chambers. Rhaenyra turned to her siblings, "We will be having dinner soon, would you all like to join us?"
"Yes!" Jace said quickly as he looked at his uncles and aunt, "Please."
Aemond, Daeron and Helaena looked at Aegon to hear his answer. The eldest between them glanced at them and then looked at his older sister, who's eyes were soft, and a small soft smile was placed on her lips.
"If it's alright," he said softly. Rhaenyra's smile widened a little more and she nodded. She looked at her sons, "Tell your father my siblings will be joining us, and make sure there are extra plates."
"All right," Jace said happily, and he and Luke ran away. Rhaenyra turned back to her siblings who were tensed. She tilted her head and stepped forward. She noticed the handprint on Aegon's cheek and gently placed her hand on his cheek, and he flinched before he stood in place.
Rhaenyra's eyes soften more, and she lowered her hand to her side. "Are you all right?" she asked softly, her eyes flickered between them all.
Aemond nodded slightly, holding Daeron's hand tightly in his. "Yes."
Rhaenyra nodded and looked back at Aegon, waiting for his own answer. He let out a shaky breath he didn't know he was holding and nodded, "I am now," he muttered.
Rhaenyra nodded again.
"Will you kill us?"
Rhaenyra, Aegon, Helaena and Aemond glanced down at little Daeron, who was still holding into his big brother's hand, afraid to let it go and be taken away.
Rhaenyra was stunned by the question, and moved closer to her youngest brother. She knelt down and placed her hand gently on his tensed arm, "Of course not," she said, but Daeron still seemed a bit hesitated. "Who told you such a lie?"
"Mother," Daeron admitted, and Rhaenyra was again stunned. "She and Grandsire said that when you become Queen, you will put our heads on sword."
Rhaenyra couldn't form a word after this.
Alicent and Otto thought she will kill her siblings--her blood--the moment their father will pass.
How dare they?
How dare they put such lies into her siblings' minds? How dare they harm her siblings? Make them fear her? Push them away from her?"
Rhaenyra swallowed, her throat was tight, and she blinked the tears that were threatening to fall.
Rhaenyra let out a soft and shaky breath and took Daeron's and Aemond's hands in hers and looked at all of her siblings.
"I will never harm you. None of you."
Her eyes moved back to Daeron and she brushed her hand on his little cheek.
"You are safe with me. Always."
She saw her siblings' shoulders finally relaxed and she felt a pang in her chest from how tensed they were all around her.
Suddenly, Daeron, hesitantly, took one step forward and threw his arms around Rhaenyra, as if afraid he overstepped. But, their older sister immediately embraced him tightly, and his body relaxed.
Helaena looked relief, muttering to herself, "I won't fall any longer."

"Rhaenyra isn't the stepmother, she's the mother who stepped up!"
Tumblr media
The HOTD writers themselves are hardly doing anything to support that narrative, so I take this rhetoric with a grain of salt. While I think, in some way, Rhaenyra does care for Baela and Rhaena....if I had to point out a motherly figure for them that could pose as someone stepping in Laena's place, Rhaenyra would not be it.
#house of the dragon#hotd#hotd critical#rhaenyra targaryen critical#baela targaryen#rhaena targaryen#this mainly just comes from my frustration with this fandom painting rhae as overly motherly toward baela & rhaena#making it seem like we had so much to go on for her being a good stepmother when it's really the bear minimum#there's more with rhaenys being there for them than with rhae--- both physically & verbally#even with scenes where she's with them: for baela it holds more of political means with her having a dragon and then using her to see corly#like sure she could be concerned about her well-being but it's definitely not on the same level as with her sons#don't even get me started on with rhaena bc that “be a mother to them” line had me 🤬#and her referring to her sons as hers and the pain of sending them away but not adhering to rhaena's emotional needs and feelings of inferi#rity--- like it didn't sit right with me especially when she couldn't even be bothered to hug her#i like to enjoy headcanons about their relationship but the canon material doesn't stray far either#rhaenys raised baela alongside her on driftmark she sought rhaena out when they met after so long#she advocated for rhaena to her husband over joffery--- she's their grandMOTHER that stepped up tbh#tbh i wouldn't really be rocking with my stepmom if she sought after & slept with my dad at my mom & stillborn brother's funeral#barely comforted my sister and i when we were injured in a fight (only her sons)#then got married to said father not long after said funeral...like i'd be pressed tbh!#dni if you can't have a collected conversation about this#rhaenys targaryen#(also just bc im a little critical of rhae doesn't mean i hate her in comparison to others she's not that bad tbh)

I sometimes like to fantasize about how much Corlys Velaryon would have fucked shit up if Alicent had actually managed to injure Luke in 1x07.
That man had a fleet, access to two full grown dragons with battle experience, money to burn and a pre-existing grudge against Viserys and the Hightowers. He wanted that smoke since the Great Council. And he clearly loved Luke.
It would have gotten very messy, very quickly.

i'm sorry but this is sending me into the goddamn stratosphere, if you send people to physically attack my mom, torture my sister, cut my six year old son's head off, threaten to murder my toddler, and then also threaten to rape my six year old daughter, i would be very happy and jovial in declaring war on your psycho ass for pulling that shit on people who literally didn't do a thing to you.
consequently, if i sent people to physically attack someone who never did me any harm, torture my sister who never did me any harm, cut my six year old nephew who never did me any harm's head off, threaten to murder my toddler nephew who never did me any harm, and also threaten to rape my six year old niece who never did me any harm, i would be very full of regret and sorrow for what i've done, because those are bad things that i did.

Viserys shouldn't marry alicent. And after alicent revail to be a threat for rhaenyra viserys should have killed her
your right, a grown ass man shouldn't have married a little girl, raped her, forced her to have multiple children before the age of 18, only to ignore and neglect them, dooming them to essentially, death (cause he had to have known the political fallout of multiple male heirs being succeeded by a woman would cause turmoil, yet he did nothing to avoid this, nothing to facilitate a smooth succession of power, nothing to protect Rhaenyra's ascent, nothing to protect his wife and other children, all things expected of a king. he could have stopped the war before it started, or at the very least tried to, but he didn't cause he's fucking pathetic).
but wanting a woman to be killed simply for protecting her children, is wild. expecting Viserys, Mr "I don't even do the bare minimum of my duty, let alone family conflict" to do it, is even wilder.
if Rhaenyra had done that to Alicent y'all would be applauding her. but because the none targ, none heir did it, shame to her, she should be killed, make that stoned? hung? burned? beheaded in front of the masses? none of it would have been enough for some of you fans.
cause yeah, lets leave the kids already doomed to die, kids without an actual father figure due to their sister have their mum executed cause of their sister too, that'll totally end well, totally won't spur them for revenge even more than when Aemond had just lost an eye.

HE SAVED HER. too bad.#she doesn’t care anymore bc everyone she really loved is dead. dying a pawn and yet the powerful man in westeros.#letting the narrative consume him alive after sunfyre is injured and finds him on dragonstone. he knows he’s doomed when he goes up against#baela. he does it because what else do you do. you’ve gone too far. killed too many. you killed your sister’s children and she killed yours#in return and now you can’t go back. no choice but mutually assured destruction with the only woman who ever saw how dangerous he was and#how desperate for loce he was. once upon a time. he was a baby bouncing in his sister’s lap on the throne. and she was beautiful and tall#and soft and smart and she told him he was beautiful and loved and pointed out every name and held him the way a mother does.#it has to end there. if the narrative eats me and sunfyre alive it has to eat her too. he won’t go down without her.#getting on my soap box#aegon the usurper

@halfyearsqueen said: “You should rest, my dear. Let me help you sit somewhere.” / helaena
She was not used to Rhaenyra's presence in the way it should have been natural for sisters. When she had been much younger, she remembered spending far more time with the oldest of the family, but as the years went by and Rhaenyra had her own sons, they interacted less and less. That was not to blame solely on Rhaenyra, however. Helaena was very withdrawn and quiet, most often preferring her own company to that of others. With her mother's and grandsire's constant whisper in her ear to shun the princess, it was often best - in her eyes at least - to keep equal distance to all of them, especially after she had been wedded to Aegon. This alone had destroyed her trust in most of the adults in the family, because they had sanctioned such an unhappy union.
Naturally, Aegon had been eager to consummate the marriage right away and managed to conceive a babe immediately. Helaena had not understood the changes in her body at first and grown even more withdrawn through the suffering of everything that was ailing her. The constant movement of the babes inside her womb were the worst to her. Given how averse to touch she was, this was a living nightmare to the girl and she wanted it to end desperately, no matter how afraid she was to actually give birth. It truly felt like a punishment from the Gods to carry not one, but two children at such a young age and Helaena felt very disconnected from it all, disassociating most days, as she sat in her chambers and stared at walls. Today she felt restless and had taken to strolling the gardens and empty halls of the Keep, trying to alleviate some of the aches and pains she felt by moving. When she encountered her sister, Rhaenyra must have noticed the exhaustion etched upon her features and Helaena accepted the offered hand hesitantly to let the older girl lead her towards a chaise. "I don't feel well today. I thought walking would help but it hasn't. My stomach hurts and I am so tired", she confided in her sister, sinking into the cushions with a sigh.

Rhaenyra sits with Aegon II in her lap, bouncing the boy in an effort to amuse him. The toy dragon he likes carrying around is in his small hand. She actually gifted him that. The princess smiles down at him as she does so.
"Don't tell anyone, but, I might take you to see Syrax, baby brother." She whispers to him since she assumes they are alone.
