“Oh it’s a natural character progression” I don’t care. There are better, more creative, and less sexually repulsive ways to signify a character has deep insecurity with their status as a second son in a medieval world and with their status in their relationship with their mother.

This all ties back into the whole sexual punishment thing that the writers have been doing to team green since the beginning. They’ve been placing Alicent in constant noncon situations. Making Criston an “incel” (though I still heavily disagree with the characterization). Making Alicent and Criston somehow partially to blame for blood and cheese because they had consensual relations. Having Aegon talk about how his nethers have been mutilated. And now having Aemond be a contributor to the constant sexual punishment the writers wish to inflict on Alicent and giving him a weird dream about her.

And what purpose do these scenes even have that couldn’t be done by simply giving Alys and Aemond more scenes and character depth? Alys can function as a proxy for Alicent just as easily as inventing Alicent appearing somehow to try to kill him (which is another topic that is so obscene because literally who even is this woman? Season 1 Alicent would never). Instead of playing this weird sexual degrading game they impose on the Team Green characters they could simply show Aemond’s deep rooted insecurity in his place as a second son and his craving tenderness from a maternal figure through Alys.

I’m not saying that the traits they’re conveying aren’t consistent or don’t make sense for the character. But what I am saying is that the way in which the writers are choosing to delve into it is suspicious as hell. They don’t care to delve into the interesting character subconscious they’ve created. They don’t care to expand upon the natural character progression of the character. They just want to shove shocking sexual scenes into our faces and obviously that can only be done to team green. Because sexual empowerment belongs to Rhaenyra alone.
