welcome to your new home, freak

Rhaenyra. You don’t get it Rhaenyra. I saw it at harrenhal. A song of ice and fire. I saw a sixteen year old girl with a like twelve foot vertical leap and our magic dagger Rhaenyra not one of ours but it was sick as hell and very subversive and epic Rhaenyra you have to lock in

Rhaenyra. In the vision the freaky tree vision I had from this lady who was poisoning me. That one. There was a girl in a far away desert with dragons at her breast. Some kind of song of ice and fire. She lost one of her dragons in the gullet too. Anyways Rhaenyra what are the greyjoys up to I feel like it’s really important to remember the location of the iron fleet

I can't with the double standards in this fandom when olenna tyrell weaponizes her gay relatives to terrorise a blonde woman and put her bloodline on the iron throne everyone calls her "queen" and "woke grandma" 🙄 but when I, otto hightower

i love how everyone in this show is everyone else. aemond is quite literally daemon. daemon wants to be rhaenyra. rhaenyra wants to be daemon and is supposed to be viserys but shes actually rhaenys. aegon wants to be rhaenyra. jacerys is no one that he wants to be. rhaena wants to be baela. baela wants to be her father. alicent wants to be anyone but who she is and instead shes all of her children at once and thats why she cannot stand to look at them and thinks maybe if she saves helaena she can save herself

one of many things i really loved was how anticlimactic rhaenyra taking kings landing is. there is barely any action, barely any spectacle, barely any dragons. they just walk through the halls functionally unimpeded and all we see is their silver targaryen hair as they walk through halls that are familiar to us by now but where they feel out of place. there is tension in the fact that there is no tension at all. we know daemon is a better fighter than any hightower guard. we know they have more dragons. even the goldcloaks rushing in lasts barely more than a second. otto's death is imperfect and unsatisfying. there is no revenge or catharsis behind her swing. all of this build up her entire life the moment she has been waiting for through all of the death and grief and she hobbles up to the throne in tears because there is absolutely no glory in taking the iron throne, none of it matters, but its too late to do anything else but sit.

right before you have major life commitments is the perfect time to get into a new fandom

Ask not for whom the gurdy hurds. It hurds for thee.
