when a character pretends to not understand a language, watches as people talk shit about them, hears all their plans, and then turns around and destroys them. that's CINEMA
“Helaena shows more courage, more strength in the book, by offering her own own life to save her son. Offering a piece of jewelry is just not the same”.

George R.R. Martin has now taken down his blog post regarding mistakes made in the first episode of #HouseOfTheDragon Season 2 and the implications they have on the entire series.
HBO has responded to George R.R. Martin’s complaints about #HouseOfTheDragon Season 2:
“There are few greater fans of George R.R. Martin and his book Fire & Blood than the creative team on House of the Dragon, both in production and at HBO. Commonly, when adapting a book for the screen, with its own format and limitations, the showrunner ultimately is required to make difficult choices about the characters and stories the audience will follow. We believe that Ryan Condal and his team have done an extraordinary job and the millions of fans the series has amassed over the first two seasons will continue to enjoy it.”

That last look Meleys gave to Rhaenys...I just felt like it was an apology and a goodbye wrapped up in one.
"I'm sorry I couldn't protect you. I'm sorry I failed. Goodbye." #HouseOfTheDragon
