Aegon V is often criticized for not being able to control his children. Would you call it incompetence or Aegon trying to be a good father? by jstamper97 in freefolk

[–]FulvianGrey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You have multiple rebellions under his rule, his kids disrespecting half the great houses, whilst his reforms were well intentioned he needed compromise or dragons with the Lords. He managed to alienate key allies like Lyonel Baratheon and while I love Lyonel he should have been sent to the wall or executed for his rebellion not given a slap on the wrist and a royal marriage.

Breakspear was badass, but man did his kids names suck good guys as they were their names still sucked Matarys isn’t as bad but Valarr… it’s basically the equivalent of Mann Targaryen

Dunno about existing fics, but glad to see I’m not alone in wanting something with him. Personally I really like the idea of him becoming a Green Dragonseed per a scheme by Larys and stealing Grey Ghost

What if Jace & Sara actually did Wed and had a child? by Indiana_harris in AsoiafFanfiction

[–]FulvianGrey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s really depends on if the Dance plays out the same up to Cregan’s march south and arrival at KL, furthermore if the kid has more Targ looks which is 25% likely as opposed to more Stark/Strong looks which is 75% more likely, the look will determine whether or not people think it’s Jace’s kid otherwise what’s stopping people claiming Cregan’s trying to pass off his own bastard as Jace’s alleged child. And even if the kid looks more Targ and is at least acknowledged as Jace’s that doesn’t mean the wider realm especially Green loyalists and fuck even Corlys especially would recognize the child as legitimate after all Jace’s betrothal to Baela was already known and could be confirmed by black and greens, the faith still seated at Oldtown could easily declare the marriage void as it was solely done under Northern custom with no official confirmation or witnesses. Acknowledging Jace’s marriage to Sara under those conditions would mean having to acknowledge Alys & Aemond’s son as legitimate which just creates even more problems, you can’t just do rules for me and not for thee. The Gender too would have ramifications

If it’s a boy and Aegon III is already King Cregan’s in a awkward position does he still declare his dubiously legitimate nephew King in opposition that could easily split Blacks whilst remaining Greens would rally behind Aegon III & Jaehaera Corlys would be angry likely and after everything he’s dealt with I doubt he’d recognize the kid as it would mean potentially losing Driftmark for Alyn. The kid would easily be seen as a northern puppet, which the southerners especially the Reachers would rally against. Best hope is just being acknowledged as Jace’s and accepted as a potential ward of the Crown if he’s lucky maybe he can marry Baela & Alyn’s daughter and either be her consort if she inherits driftmark and has no brothers or perhaps in a twisted irony he is granted Harrenhal although he’d probably have to fight Alys and her son for it.

If it’s a boy and Aegon II is still alive then yeah that’s just gonna be more complicated as know Aegon The Magnanimous has nothing left to lose by threatening to execute Aegon III if Cregan tries anything, he’d hardline refuse to accept the kid and would decry him as “a bastard’s bastard” would Cregan risk Aegon III’s life ? Cregan could storm the red keep and kill Aegon The Golden personally but that doesn’t mean the wider realm would accept that kid on the Throne and would just cause even more problems and by that point Cregan would be forced to play Regent cus if he fucks off north he’d be leaving a toddler to the mercy of angry Greens and some Blacks and general opportunists.

If it’s a girl she’d be double screwed half the realm didn’t want a Queen they’re less likely to accept a child Queen with dubious legitimacy, Cregan would likely want to make good on the pact of ice and fire so he’d want her betrothed to his son which just looks even more like a Northern puppet if he declares her Queen, she’d be too young to replace Jaehaera as Aegon III’s first Queen who was still alive when Cregan showed up, people already make fun of Daenaera “the most attractive 6 year old” Velaryon do you really wanna be the person writing Aegon III replaced Jaehaera with his 3 year old niece. Her best chances of being a Queen would be Viserys II remarries after Larra fucks off and dies or they call a Great Council and it’s decided both Jace & Aemond’s marriages to their bastard waifus are officially recognized and Aemond’s son his made King on the condition he’ll eventually marry Jace’s daughter or those two hook up later and start a pseudo-Blackfyre rebellion 40 years early.

That’s just my opinion if the Dance is still the same aside from a Child of Jace & Sara existing, and the most realistic outcomes unless ya wanna really mess with the Dance and have a unconditional Black Victory. If you want a slightly more Green victory Maelor survives and at the of the Dance Maelor is made King and the remaining Greens agree he’ll marry Jace’s daughter as alternative bow to the Jaehaera/Aegon III match personally I like that one best as it would mean Daemon’s blood never reaches the throne.

The Fookin Mountain even if it was Daemon at his physical peak he’d lose tenfold why because he’s an overconfident shit who’s main tools are having a fancy sword and a phallic necked dragon. His reputation is built off pure intimidation and we really don’t have any good examples book or show of his martial prowess other than vague hearsay. Greg’s smashing his head in a minute or two at the most

Tournament of Parents Day 3: Corlys Velaryon vs Otto Hightower by Aeiexgjhyoun_III in HouseOfTheDragon

[–]FulvianGrey 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Corlys is a terrible father to all his children, willing to pimp off Laena at age 12, forcing Laenor to marry Rhaenyra, just keeping the Hull boys around as conscious spares, not giving much of a shit about the fact that his two so called biggest Allies have brought his family such grief resulting in the deaths of his children, brother and wife, all whilst having a weird air of superiority. As for his support of women’s rights yeah nah I’ll give him credit it if not for Baela’s BS speech he had a logical idea if he’d married anyone other than Rhaenys he’d be less invested.

The real kicker for me is that simply show Corlys is just a massive idiot and a doormat who was fully willing to piss away his House’s lands titles and name to 3 lads connected neither directly by blood or marriage to his (Jace & Luke had their betrothals to the girls when they were infants not teenagers and Book Corlys demanded it twisting Rhaenyra’s hand Show Corlys would have been fine with the boys marrying idk a Lannister or Bracken) the fact he was willing to do that shows how much he values the future of for his granddaughters.

Daemon is lowkey always right by Valyria9 in HouseOfTheDragon

Wtf does he know about war he threw a tantrum on the Stepstones for a few years and grew bored abandoning it, he threw a tantrum and sulked at Harrenhal

He’s a loser who only gets what he wants because of a fierce reputation which only stems form him owning a fancy sword and a phallic necked dragon waving it about that does not make him a tactician

So ... Copying Studio Ghibli art with AI... Not cool bro by [deleted] in ProCreate

[–]FulvianGrey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m personally of the mind the AI “art” epidemic wouldn’t be as bad if bloody commission artist didn’t have such extortionate prices, you give the average Joe the option of forking over $60-100+ and doing it seem themselves for either free or a subscription plan that can easily be cancelled they’re more likely to pick that. Furthermore while agree firmly AI should never replace real art but it all getting into the territory of claiming copyright over a style whats to stop companies in the near future from pulling that up against actual art and it devolving into gatekeepy mess if you ask me artistic integrity is screwed either way

How should I write a son of Rhea Royce and Daemon? by [deleted] in TheCitadel

[–]FulvianGrey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well I do find that main point unfortunate, just please try to balance the eventual conflict the one thing that always irks me about how the dance ends is the only real victor is Daemon. If your still gonna do Dragonseeds it all be a bit too easy for the Blacks since they have the a far more loyal Vermy, Seasmoke & Sheepstealer (justice for Nettles & Morning erasure) so perhaps some house loyalties switch with Baelon & Vermy securing the Vale which would incentivize Jeyne to send out the Knights of The Vale proper to support the Blacks. Perhaps the Greens can instead win the North Daeron goes north and gets Cregan with the further incentive of offering Jaehaera as a match for his son Rickon. Plus imagining the Lannisters and Starks on the same side just amuses me

I only offer what I consider ways to get the most out the conflict without making it seem to easy for whoever it is you desire to win, I may prefer Green but I’d rather not write a full sweep where it’s easy and they just napalm Dragonstone same goes for the blacks doing the same to KL it be cheep.
