Daemon: Rhaenys , I…

Daemon: I love you!

Rhaenys: Not my problem.

[thechaoscousins]

Rhaenys: Hey, wanna take a shower with me?

Daemon: I have a gun in that nightstand beside the bed. If I ever say no to that question, I want you to take it out and shot me because I’ve obviously gone crazy.

[thechaoscousins]

Rhaenys: I still have no idea how I’m attracted to you...

Daemon: Yeah, well, you’re stuck with me, and no take backs, honey.

[thechaoscousins]

Daemon: I don't need to go to bed. I'm not tired, I'll be fine.

Rhaenys: But, darling, I'll be so lonely without you. Come curl up in my arms so I can feel whole again.

Daemon: O-oh. Well. Are you trying to seduce me into healthy sleeping patterns??

Rhaenys: Is it working?

I was looking through my blog, saw my reblogs of your gifs, and realized I hadn't stalked scrolled through your blog in DAYS. All the Eve stuff I see in your blog always makes me do a happy, little dance. Also, I may or may not fill up your notifs again 😁

And that Daemon and Rhaenys scene?? I may or may not have ended up shipping them because of it and exploring the possibilities of their dynamic from the one or two interactions between them that was shown has certainly consumed my thoughts. All the what-ifs! But I do keep it low-key in my main blog because I usually see a lot of Daemon hate and I just wanna be in my own little corner, enjoying my thing 🙈

Awww, bless you, that's so lovely. You're very kind, I do appreciate it. It's always nice to see your username crop up in my activity. Go nuts! What more can someone ask for but engagement on their posts?

You ship Daemon and Rhaenys? How interesting! I don't, and I don't think I could really do so even for funsies, there are just too many obstacles in the way for me to do that. Fussy, I know. But I certainly do agree that they have one heck of an interesting dynamic and I would have loved to have seen more of that.

I've not seen Matt discuss those interactions very much but I have seen Eve, discuss both the look she gives Daemon after the news about Jaehaerys, and then the one scene that we have of them alone, together. And how she sees that dynamic and how she thinks Rhaenys sees Daemon, and Daemon, particularly, in that moment and within the context of that scene.

It's one of the relationships where we don't get much but there's so much history and so much inferred, even in just the first season, that you can feel fairly confident in the dynamic. You can feel it. And, for me, it's interesting just looking at how they are positioned in the world and how they pivot around the Iron Throne. The similarities and differences between them, and in how that Targaryen spirit is in them both and is expressed and presented.

The fact that they are, or were, or whatever tense you want to use, the last pillar of a bygone age, as Jaehaerys's grandchildren. There's a shared history known only to them as they go over death after death. They are part of an era now gone. There are no dragon riders as experienced as them, by a fairly decent margin, also.

Something that I wish they'd made more of an effort to represent would be that they could have been said to be the angel and devil on Rhaenyra's shoulder: they're opposites in that way, with Daemon doing damage to and Rhaenys trying to enforce Rhaenyra's authority. The aggressive vs the thoughtful. They're profoundly different people but still passionate, loyal, and fierce. Displaced, proud, independent.

I think Eve described that scene of them together as them being like a panther vs a rattlesnake, and I like what that implies: profoundly different beasts but, at the end of the day, both deadly - both predators.

Daemon: This date is boring!

Rhaenys: This isn't a date. I said I was going to the store.

Daemon: Then why did you invite me?

Rhaenys: I didnt, I specifically said "don't come with me," then you said, "fuck you Rhaenys I'll do whatever I want!

[thechaoscousins]

Daemon: I am so cool. I am an absolute Chad. I am the epitome of coolness and awesomeness—

Rhaenys: Hi.

Daemon: *melts down in a flustered heap of softness*

[thechaoscousins]

Daemon: I think I'm falling for you.

Rhaenys: Then get up.

[thechaoscousins]

Daemon: Rhaenys is playing hard to get.

Daemon: Little do they know, I'm a master at playing hard to get rid of.

[thechaoscousins]

Daemon: What are you in the mood for?

Rhaenys: World domination.

Daemon: That's a bit ambitious.

Rhaenys: You are my world.

Daemon: Aww...

Rhaenys:

Daemon:

Rhaenys:

Daemon: OH.
