βRhaenyra is kind of seeking the approval of her prisoner. As though youβve locked up your conscious in the castle and you come in periodically to sort of check in and see how they think youβre doing.β
kind of wild how HotD is like βthe other nobles will view Rhaenyra as less capable because she has emotions and has not numbed herself to the loss of life. they will act as though her emotions are tied to her womanhood, and therefore they will say her being a woman makes her weak.β and then after every episode I log onto this website and see people going βwow I canβt believe they made rhaenyra cry when she did an extremely hard task immediately after the death of her son. they really turned her into a weak woman. this must be because the show runners hate womenβ β¦yall π
obsessed with the framing of this scene and the power play going on. rhaenyra is the one who holds more power than alicent but this scene shows how much power alicent is holding over rhaenyra.
alicent has put her seven pointed star necklace back on as if to remind herself of the conduct she should carry herself with after having shouted at her queen. she enters and apologises and though may say the words of an apology nothing else about her says 'i'm sorry'. she's smiling. she doesn't bow. she's standing over rhaenyra instead of sitting, rhaenyra is having to look up at her.
she's trying to make it seem like she is below rhaenyra when she isn't. she makes herself look humble and repentant and immediately uses the chance to get something she wants and even then, she diminishes the ask as "a small request only", as if a prisoner who just shouted and questioned the queen has a right to a request at all.
what's even better is that it works and rhaenyra can't even look away from her, proving who has the more power.
That feeling when she is both your biggest problem and the solution
You are broke? Her House is one of the richest in the realm.
Civil war? She is one of the figureheads of the enemy. Chain her or marry her. Do both if you aim for spicy nights.
The High Septon hates you? Wonderful, her House represents the Faith. Let her speak with that man. Or again, just marry her.
Need someone to do paperwork? Marry her.
Need someone in your Small Council who actually has experience? Bring her.
Daily dose of wife scolding as ASMR for your headache? She provides well.
Domestic care? 20 years of experience in taking care of a sovereign with stupidity and chronic disease. Take her.
Your wounded inner child needs soothing? Wow, guess who's home now?
Bastardy and legitimacy are biting your arse? Didn't she tell you so years ago? 100% "I told you so" Wife Energy.
You are torn because you must put her sons on a blade? Wow shit, who said that she and her dad raised the Green kids in delulu and hatred because they believed you would do so one day to protect your throne?
If only you two could have kids together, people would be spared from senseless war, and the dragons would not become extinct.

obsessed with whatβs gotta be the weakest prisoner/hostage situation iβve ever seen in my entire life. alicent not allowed to leave but can wander to rhaenyraβs quarters whenever she pleases. one flash of a tender moment and rhaenyra is asking for her advice. rhaenyra βcanβt be seen favouring hightowersβ but shows up at her door, tail between her legs, spilling the beans that she kidnapped her son. alicent, staunch truth teller to her detriment, doesnβt even try to pretend itβs actually daeron. alicent asking the real questions like βam i supposed to thank you?β and βso iβm supposed to hope for the death of my son?β bc yeah rhaenyra has lost the plot (affectionate)
rhaenyra doesn't hold up her end of the deal not only because she wonders if alicent has betrayed her but also because she doesn't want to let alicent leave, she can't let her leave, because she is such an integral part of rhaenyra. she has already lost so much of herself, she can't afford to lose another piece. alicent knows her in ways other people don't, as teenagers alicent was the only person she could rely on for emotional support. she trusts that alicent wouldn't lie to her, she trusts that she can be the grounding presence that she needs. rhaenyra doesn't want to become something she isn't and alicent is the best person to remind her of who she is at her core and to even be that other side of her that might end up getting crushed by the crown
i love how free alicent was able to be in terms of her expression because of how rhaenyra allows it. she lets her shout and be frustrated, she lets her correct her, she seeks her council. rhaenyra knows how hard it can be for a woman to get her voice heard, she knows how harshly emotions can be judged so she offers alicent the safe place where she can open up and be herself and not have to perform and act in a certain manner that is usually expected of her
and we all know who you shared that dream with
having alicent warn rhaenyra that "you may not rule and remain yourself" because that is exactly what happened to alicent. i immediately thought of alicent saying "i like to believe I'm still the lady alicent but all anyone sees when they look at me now is the queen" it's the harsh truth of becoming a ruler. you're made into something you're not and the people around you start ignoring who you really are in favor of making you into who they want you to be
rhaenyra doesn't want to believe she'll become something she won't recognise. it's pessimistic for alicent to say "time will tell" but alicent didn't believe she would be changed so much either, she wants to brace rhaenyra for what may come

HOUSE OF THE DRAGON 3.03 β Rhaenyra Triumphant
rhaenyra: alicent iβm holding you hostage. iβm giving you food and water and a maid and also iβm gonna come and talk to you every couple of hours (youβre still hostage) also i canβt think straight unless im with you please talk to me
i am thrilled that we are acknowledging the actual skills required to run the realm and that alicent HAS those skills while rhaenyra does not
HOUSE OF THE DRAGON (2022 β ) 1x09 "The Lord of the Tides" || 3x03 "Rhaenyra Triumphant"
You ruled this realm in all but name while my father lay ill. I did...It's a heavy weight. How did you bear it? In truth? You may not rule and remain yourself. There are choices to be made, and you may, on occasion, have to turn your face away while people suffer and die. There is in you a door that must be shut. You will do things that your heart would have recoiled from before you came to the throne. I acknowledge the struggle. But I dispute that I must become what I am not. Time will tell.

they were so disturbed π
Everyone that hates Alicent needs to go rewatch season one and see Emily Carey's performance again. Especially that scene when Otto told her to go to the King's chambers and offer him comfort, see how her voice trembled and turned small and how she began biting her nails. The young Alicent's anxiety, sadness, and despair was truly brought to life. That girl really was only a child forced to become queen and ITS SO SAD.
