“Aegon the realm’s delight” is the saddest line ever. Aegon wants to be a daughter so bad. To be coddled and gazed upon with love and affection rather than distain and fear. Rhaenyra wishes to be a son. She wants the loyalty everyone has to be unwavering. She wants to be feared and respected like a man. They are truly two sides of the same coin.
Alicent's "just a piece you moved across the board" line for Otto fits him so perfectly because he truly was a political mastermind. He moved all his kids and grandkids across the board to set up a checkmate before the game even started. This is why he brought Alicent to KL, why he married Aegon to Helaena, why he kept idealist Gwayne at a distance, and why he allowed opportunist Ormund complete control of Daeron.
Especially in Daeron's case, Otto was thinking ten moves ahead. I am convinced that sending Daeron to Oldtown was Otto's idea because in so doing, he effectively handed House Hightower a trueborn Targaryen prince raised under their influence as an insurance policy to rally behind in case Rhaenyra ever successfully ascended the throne and decided to eliminate rival claimants. Daeron was being strategically positioned in Oldtown under Ormund's care rather than Gwayne's (even though Gwayne was the closest relative), because Otto knew that when all else failed, Ormund would use Daeron to fight the war out of his own ambitions and for personal gain while Gwayne would stick to chivalry.
Otto knew the game and his available players so well and manipulated them expertly to engineer contingencies for every possible outcome. It was all a political game since the start and Otto was the political mastermind while Viserys refused to make difficult decisions, willingly blinded himself to threats, and played with legos.
my two worlds collided
a thought: if Daeron IS wearing a wig/dyed his hair to hide his identity and is masquerading as a squire, that could be an adorable meet-cute.
Think about it:
Daeron has to marry to form an alliance with whatever house and he travels to the Lord, still disguised in Ormund's party. And, of course, as the pact is made and the details are discussed, not a soul thinks of the bride nor the groom, both left out of the discussion and slipping out of sight separately. Daeron is off by himself in the gardens when a young woman approaches him, asking if he is part of the Hightower's party.
"Aye, my lady."
"May I ask you what he is like? Prince Daeron, I mean."
"Why do you wish to know?"
"Because I am to be his bride."
This is her. This is the stranger he'll be married to and she has no clue who she's talking to...and Daeron cannot help but smile and play the role of Ben, the squire, who knows Daeron so well, talking up the prince quite a bit and teasing a little. They spend quite a lot of time together and Daeron finds that he and his lady are well suited to one another, liking her more and more by the moment. And she likes him too. He can tell that she's sweet on him, even as she gently avoids "Ben" making little flirtation here and there (which he also likes).
The visit ends.
The Hightower's must leave to attend to some business and, when they return, she and Daeron will marry. Ben says his goodbyes and asks for a small favor, her blue ribbon for luck in the war, and assures her that she and Daeron will be quite happy together.
"How can you know that?"
"Trust me, my lady, I know the prince better than most. He shall love you."
And she watches him leave, ribbon tied around his wrist, a little part of her wishing that Ben could have been more than a friend...imagine her face when he reappears later, the red from his hair gone and white curls down his shoulders, smiling at her in such a familiar way...and then she sees the ribbon tied around his wrist and figures it out, Daeron following her out to the gardens.
"You are a beastly creature!"
"And yet you love me still."
They are happy together, the two of them. And when they name thier third born son Benjen and people ask why, they simply smile.

Jacaerys Velaryon's death will always be brutal but Vermax's was heart wrenching. The poor baby tried so hard to fly for him, and sunk down in pain and crying. Same with Sunfyre, the most beautiful dragon in history and with so much love for Aegon, only for him to take him unprepared into battle and get ripped in pain burned. And even then, Sunfyre died wrapped around his rider to protect him, just hours ago he had playfully nudged and cuddled him because he wanted to make him happy. The Targaryens never deserved their dragons who loved them so much. Their cries and pains will always hurt me so much more than any character death because they trusted their riders so much and instead they were taken to their painful death. They weren't war creatures, they were animals with love and feelings. And doomed by their riders who never actually loved their dragons as they should have.
Aemond baby, get behind me.
not 3.07 confirming that the reason Viserys had one dragon dream and ONLY ONE dragon dream is the connection between rider and dragon. Viserys road Balerion for a few years, had one dragon dream about the prince who was promised, and lost his connection to dragon magic when Balerion died. Then for the rest of his life he wished he was a dreamer while blind to his second most forgotten child being tortured with them.
OF COURSE then DREAMfyre would give her rider dragon dreams - and I actually like HOtD finally getting around to explaining why Helaena doesn’t fly and canonizing a story accurate reason why she no longer rides.
