alicent keeping her pious energy in season 2.
she wears more veils and a lot of seven-pointed stars. she prays a lot even when not in a sept and is surrounded by septas. speaking about how she prays for the blacks and that they'll see the truth/come to a bloodless understanding.
being so pious that others at court are annoyed. so religious that when speaking to someone she finishes their sentence (like she says the quote from the seven pointed star before they can).
alicent feels like her position at court is vanishing, so she seeks comfort in the faith. she buries herself in prayers and scriptures.
organizing jaehaerys's funeral procession and praying for him (and those long lost).
#i wrote this months ago and really wish we got that ins2#s2 alicent didn't strike me as religious as s1 alicent which probs has to do with the arc she got#it doesn't have to do with alicole bc they could have still done that with her extremly pious behaviour#her outfits also play into the vibe being off for me#i LOVE her s2 dresses but more veils or something to cover would have added deeper meaning to some dresses#giving her more and bigger seven pointed stars should have been a must bc where is her giant neckleace? donated to a orphange in fleabottom#for her having no one to speak to....otto seems like the type of parent to choose his child's friends tbh#could have had her surounded by septas and ladies from houses loyal to house hightower#she can still be isolated and lonely while having women she's at least friendly with and who won't betray her or are secretly spies#let my girl have her small support system#larys changing her entire staff had me so mad#alicent hightower#queen alicent hightower#dowager queen alicent#hotd#house of the dragon#team green#i count it as such even if it's just about alicent
