Rhaenyra needs to stop listening to everyone and make the right decisions quickly, or the system will collapse, the monarchy will fall, and the throne will go to someone else.
She's in a state of confusion and hesitation, and she's the weakest queen Westeros has ever had.
There's only two episodes left in season two, and she's still living in a parallel universe.
Wake up, please! Dragons run out of fire and can't play football. 😏
Queen Rhaenyra Targaryen confronts her sister Queen Helaena Targaryen, and since Helaena has dragon dreams (psychic abilities), she demandsto know what the future holds. And Rhaenyra may not like what she hears.
I'd take toxic Aegond over the forced Oedipus storyline any day.
Saw this tweet and honestly... I agree.
If the writers were determined to give Aemond some deeply unhealthy fixation, I'd much rather it had been directed at Aegon than Alicent.
Show Aegon was Aemond's first bully. He humiliated him, dragged him to a brothel, and was the first person to expose him to sex in a way that felt coercive and shame-inducing. That's a foundation for an incredibly unhealthy obsession.
Even in Season 2, Aemond visiting the burned, bedridden Aegon, kissing his forehead while pressing on his wounds... that scene already reads as disturbingly intimate and psychologically loaded.
That's more interesting than trying to convince us Aemond secretly wants to fuck his mother.
Book Aemond and Aegon had a loyal brotherhood. The show abandoned that. So if they insisted on making their relationship toxic, I'd rather they committed to exploring that complicated sibling dynamic instead of the forced Oedipal angle that mostly exists for shock value.
Question: Before the MCU, were the Avengers considered secondary characters who didn't have much importance in the comics? Was it true that no one was interested in them, or is that claim incorrect? 🤔
