Luke and Jaehaerys watching Rhaenyra bringing up the "a son for a son" bullshit like nothing happened:

Daeron fans finding out that Show!Daeron plays the lute:
here’s how Daeron can still win
its been said but grrm timelines are wild as hell. The Starks have had an 8,000 year unbroken reign? For 8,000 years. 8,000. Old Valyria rose, made dragons, terrorized the world for thousands of years, and exploded in apocalyptic fashion, but before during and after all that the one constant in the universe was the stalwart guardian of the horrors: a guy named Brandon frowning dourly at his notepad as he counts grain being put away for winter
not the biggest alicent defender but everyone saying daeron's decent bc he wasn't raised by alicent, wb viserys??? those kids have two parents, wb their father??
alicent might not have been the best mother, but she truly loved her children and she did try (lowkey could have done better, but she was a child herself), viserys was so neglectful of his other kids that she was practically a single mother.
daeron didn't grow up seeing his father constantly choose his half sister over himself, he didn't spend his time thinking he's unworthy of his father's love, he didn't constantly have to witness an unhealthy relationship between his parents, and surely thats got to have an impact?
That whole conversation between Alicent and Gwayne is so sad, but I just can’t move on from how Gwayne assures Alicent that she tried her best. Now I will not deny that Alicent has her faults as a mother, but she was also a mother at 15. After Otto left, she was alone, with only her children. Children who weren’t all hers because they were princes and princesses of the realm. Children who had to live knowing they came second to Rhaenyra, who had to live in a court that knew they came second. Alicent definitely had a hand in how her kids grew up, there is no denying that, but my goodness, they never stood a chance in the first place. Daeron was spared but at the cost of his family. He is kind, perhaps because he is more inclined to it, but also because he didn’t grow up in an environment that eats up kindness and gentleness.
This whole family is so messed up.
the amount of gwayne fans who dislike criston is killing me…. 😡😡😡
like wdym u dont ship them?? wdym u dont want them to be in a buddy-cop comedy au roadtrip where they fall in love??? 🤯🤯
wdym u don’t see the angst of a dornish-blooded man honour-bond to duty falling to a man who is conflicted due to their gender, criston’s race.. and cristons vows of celibacy?????
