He was always whining about how he didn’t have a son. Okay, I get it he was a king and he needed an heir. But when Aegon was born, he still didn’t change his mind, all because he felt guilty about the wife he sacrificed himself. Even though he witnessed himself how they refused Rhaenys a woman and named him as heir, he seriously thought that they would have just accepted Rhaenyra just because he said so?

And Let’s be real here he didn’t exactly choose Rhaenyra he rejected Daemon. And then she goes and marries her uncle the man Viserys didn’t want on the throne, which was the whole reason she was named heir in the first place

On top of that, Rhaenyra produces bastards. And I really don’t get this argument that, Oh, Rhaenyra had no choice because Laenor was gay. Before marrying him, she had every opportunity to choose whoever she wanted, but she refused.

Ahh, you are so sweet, anon. Thank you.🩷

As I said before, I’m not going to waste my time and energy on people like that it’s not worth it, and I don’t care anymore.

We all know aerion has sociopathic traits, is dangerous but what mainly defines him is that he is a spoiled brat who was never taught limits or consequences. he often sees something that it is rational for him and his family to take offense to (i.e., the puppet show, yes I know it is a famous Westeros tale) but his reaction is excessive. he has gone unchecked most of his life. egg probably did some regular little brother nonsense and aerion went on to fully fucking terrorize him in his sleep over it. fucked up. horrible. traumatizing. but he did not fucking sexually abuse his brother nor any of his sisters that we know of.

Again, they all are trying to sound so intelligent but you sound like children who lacks critical thinking skills and the ability to actually analyze text, characters and themes. In case you haven't notice, all the fucking Targaryen's are bad people to varying levels, even the so called great Jaehaerys the Concillator or Baelor the Blessed. That's the point of this specific family.

also There’s nothing that indicates in canon that Aerion likes literal children, and no, what he did to Egg isn’t an indication of that.

He smiled at the girl because he saw how scared she was of him and hiding from him, and he enjoys being feared. That’s it.

And now this post🤡

“How dare you like him ew”

“Do you know what he did to Egg?”

Yes. I know. I knew before the show, and quite frankly, I don’t care. No, I’m not saying what he did was right. I’m not doing the whole “oh my sweet Aerion, I can fix you” thing, and I’m not saying he can do no wrong. What he did was disgusting.

And yet I still like his character.

Not because a hot actor plays him, but because I happen to enjoy sadistic, dark characters. That’s it.

I can enjoy them as characters. Can you all just stop moaning already? Maybe move on, talk about the characters you like, and stop shaming people for liking fictional characters, writing about them, or making fan edits.

Why don’t you bring this same energy to real-life issues? This is getting ridiculous. People can’t even make fan edits without others whining in the comments. It’s exhausting.

And one more thing I really hope none of you are sending death threats to the actor. The way some of you react to people liking a fictional character is already unhinged enough. At the very least, learn to separate the actor from the character.

No, he wouldn’t be soft. He wouldn’t even know how to love someone in a healthy way. He would be toxic, manipulative, and cold. I don’t even think he’s capable of love in canon. But hypothetically, if he did love someone, it wouldn’t really be love. It would be twisted. He would manipulate them, emotionally abuse them, and use them for his own gain.

I would genuinely love to read a fanfic about him, but the only thing that reminds me it’s supposed to be Aerion is Finn Bennett’s face claim. lol The way some people write him, he isn’t even the same character anymore. He feels like someone completely different.

And I know fanfic is meant to be different, and people can portray characters however they want. I’m not shaming anyone for writing fanfic, enjoying ships, or liking certain portrayals. I truly think people should enjoy whatever they want. But it just isn’t Aerion’s character anymore, you know?

I just want, for once, to read a fanfic where he’s actually written in character.
