@visenfer ngl when they made rhaenyras hesitation abt the prophecy instead of her children’s lives i knew they’d do some shit. they also couldn’t rlly follow through on this look bc rhaenyra doesn’t get angry and snap out of her grief until after jace dies. just red flags everywhere sadly
@midnighttmasss however it has been a bit since i’ve read f&b so i may be off but i don’t think rhaenyra was even called “rhaenyra the cruel” but rather maegor with teats.
@midnighttmasss fr even in the books where she does do bad things she’s never quite as cruel as those she’s opposing. a lot of her actions seem reactionary with the worst circumstances.“the cruel” moniker has always felt like an exaggeration to me in comparison to those who are not called such.
i’m really curious as to what was going through mysarias head as she was seducing rhaenyra. obviously there’s manipulation going on but there is also genuine feelings and attraction underneath. someone please get sonoya on the mic.
lately i feel people are far to eager to scapegoat mysaria for rhaenyra’s paranoia while absolving everyone else of any responsibility. take daemon and nettles: mysaria alleged they were having an affair, but when rhaenyra sent daemon a raven, he made no attempt to deny the —
everyone from tg has a superiority complex, audacity to blame rhaenyra & act like shes not fit to rule when they literally usurped her to put that incompetent rpist on the throne, did sm damage to their house & her rule, all bc shes a woman. it will be so fun to see tg go extinct
considering they’ve changed tumbleton from being a tg led attack to tb leading they’ll probably have daemon accidentally kill hugh’s wife to make him turn. meanwhile, in the books hugh and ulf turn because they’re greedy and rhaenyra refused to betroth them to children.
I really hope they don't shift the Sack of Tumbleton onto the Blacks just to justify Hugh's betrayal.
Sack of Tumbleton was GRRM's brutal reminder of who the real victims of war were.
Showing how even the 'righteous' Hightower army of Oldtown completely descended into savagery.
How convenient to say all side was bad, when one side (greens) did 100 time worst crime than blacks. GRRM described the sack of Tumbleton by so called Hightower army in detail.
Mass R#pe, girls, crones, even holy septas were r#ped. Not by one but by a hundred.

@chaseblurr It’s weird how they’ve come to love everyone even the most negative characters like ormund but draw the line at rhaena. like you cannot be serious :/ it’s just racism & misogyny.
and failures of everyone else involved. reducing the entire situation to “mysaria made rhaenyra paranoid” feels like a flat reading of a more messy story. (IMO) (like the dragonseed betrayal marks one of rhaenyra’s breaking points and that had nothing to do with mysaria)
accusation, clarify the situation, or offer rhaenyra his own version of events. his silence only lent credibility to the claim. i’m not arguing that mysaria was innocent—she clearly had her own motives—but pretending she alone orchestrated rhaenyra’s downfall ignores the agency —
people disagree with this take yet each time daemyra fight daemon physically intimidates her and gets aggressive. using rhaenyra going to him at night, when they were NOT fighting, is not proof she has no reason to fear him when they argue. keeping elinda there, in my opinion,
rhaenyra flinching when elinda calls her name but then daemon (who has domestically abused her) walks in and throughout the scene, elinda looks disappointed for rhaenyra. she knows that rhaenyra is the way she is due to his consistent aggression.
you’ll never be able to convince me rhaenyra doesn’t care about syrax when syrax was one of the most spoiled dragons in f&b. she got a heart necklace on and everything.. be fr.
here yall go AGAIN. always blaming shit on emma just so you get to be transphobic/homophobic in disguise. the romance between mysaria and rhaenyra was planned by the writers from the beginning. nowhere has it been said that emma is coming up with plots.

المشهد فالحلقة السابعة من ال التنين بين رينيرا و ميساريا بشكل كبير بيتوضح انه كان من طلب الممثلة ايما دارسي خصوصاً انها طلبت نفس الطلب فالموسم الثاني و انها مشاركة فغرفة الكتابة زي ما وضح كوندال.
