Dreaming

What if Daemon had been there when the news of Lucerys' death reached his youngest daughter?

Do you think she blamed herself for it? Knowing Lucerys died after refusing another woman because he was loyal to her? Do you think she begged her father to bring him back even if she knew there was nothing Daemon could do?

I believe faithfully that since book¡Daemon was not there to comfort Rhaena in person when Lucerys died, he sent her a letter just like he sent one to Rhaenyra.

One to his wife, one to his most fragile little girl who had just lost the boy she'd been so beloved by.

Lucerys was one year older than her in the books, and he was probably the biggest reason why she wanted a dragon to hatch for her instead of claiming a big one, she wanted to be able to dance in the skies with him and Arrax, only to end up only ever dancing by herself because she lost her whole family too.

She was alone when waiting for her dragon, she was alone when she finally got her Morning too.

If anyone is ever training you to replace them in a position and tells you 'its an easy job I don't do much' what this means is that you are about to spend six months to a year catching up on all the stuff they didn't do and sorting out the stuff they did poorly.

Day 4 | What Could Have Been

“I never thought he’d hurt them.”

Jaime comforting Elia after rescuing her during the Sack of the Red Keep.

Gosh, I just love that sweet Apple Boy, always so kind to our Dunk, really his truest friend. No agenda, just 'are you hungry?'

and 'come have some cider' and 'here, I bought back your horse because you're the best fellow I've ever known and you deserve some kindness after everything you've had to endure'. Oh, and 'hey, by the way, I'll back you up against that evil Targ princeling who's beating up women AND I'd be happy to hazard my life to defend yours and your honor, Dunk'. With no hesitation whatsoever.

And of course there's, 'Prince Maekar can bloody well stuff it, you goons are gonna have to go through ME to get to my bestie'.

“She is grieving. A raven has told Rhaenyra that her son is dead. She needs to know it for certain.”

House of the Dragon 2.01: A Son for a Son

I think he is meant to be a romantic figure but just in a very distant “he died too young way” but I’ve said multiple times that grrm put in little hints like making the only other prominent Frey character who wants to marry a younger girl from the north being named rhaegar💀 being a whole weirdo contrasted with petyr Frey who is killed by catelyn or that the naerys- aegon thing is followed extremely closely to a disturbing degree in rhaegar’s actions towards Elia and Jon’s legitimacy
