The Cats of King’s Landing 🐈‍⬛

sorry but please please don't ever assume i'm an annoying book purist who'll belittle you & won't interact with you for preferring show canon or something simply because i don't want to acknowledge certain things e.g. my muse having been made a r*pist explicitly. it's because i know they didn't do so "because it made sense" for him to abuse his power over the less fortunate (it makes sense for almost every single person in power then lbr. why him specifically if not to demonize him beyond redemption & make sure he will never be even considered as a potential leader / someone to take seriously at some point ?) because it was nothing but a well-aimed propaganda that sadly worked a bit too well on the general audience. and if they get to call every single mildly positive thing about him / the greens in the book a "propaganda", then maybe we should be allowed to not indulge some of the show "propaganda" in return ?

again, i will never have anything against show based portrayals here, i will happily find us some common ground if my own preferences are also somewhat respected. i just want to be allowed to exclude / alter certain show additions in my own writing for my own comfort—not to overglorify my muse, if you've ever looked at my writing you should know i do keep him rather disturbing and "unheroic" already, just no need to go too overboard with it either as the show continues to. i don't think i'm asking for too much tbh. maybe just try not to assume my muse is a serial r*pist. or enjoys watching children fight (super reliable narrative yeah. see what kind of book lines they don't call a "propaganda" & are okay with adding to the show ....) or is the only targaryen who can't speak high valyrian for some reason. or is never taken seriously by anybody around him, even when he is trying to do something mildly good & selfless (as in leading his own men to battle as he did in the book). or is hated and hunted down by his closest sibling and then his mother. or hilariously drunk-rode into a battle he was not even invited to out of sheer pettiness (even when the book "propaganda" made it explicitly clear he was always a part of that campaign and his & sunfyre's presence in that battle made the victory possible). or is the rider of the only fully grown dragon the show portrayed as a "poor meow meow who should be at the club" or whatever (read anything about sunfyre, i beg you all. i can and have endured aegon woobification but i draw the line at sunfyre slander lol we all know they would be building statues of that dragon if he wasn't aegon's !)
