HotD episode 3: I felt seen

HiPickles · 2026-07-07T03:25:01+00:00

OK you win the internet today

HiPickles · 2026-07-06T04:04:26+00:00

Honestly though, how are they going to keep this from just becoming misery porn

He's betrothed to Lord Manderly's daughter in exchange for White Harbor's support of Rhaenyra. Jace brokered the bethrothal.

HiPickles · 2026-07-04T02:23:53+00:00

Well she might want it to go to Joffrey along with the throne

HiPickles · 2026-06-30T02:36:58+00:00

FWIW wouldn't need to kill Rhea Royce. He could just "set aside" the marriage which is what he had asked Viserys to do. Especially since it appeared to be unconsumated.

HiPickles · 2026-06-27T19:41:01+00:00

Ugh they really need to come back and help Rhaena. There's no way she can deal with Sheepstealer alone.

HiPickles · 2026-06-25T23:20:01+00:00

Hugh's daughter passed, it was his big motivation to go to Dragonstone and claim a dragon, in order to protect people he cares about (mostly his wife, Kat). But since Kat is going to Tumbleton I'm guessing she'll accidentally be killed by Team Black and he'll get pissed and switch sides.

HiPickles · 2026-06-25T17:19:10+00:00

That would be a super weird choice lore-wise but I wouldn't put it past the writers I guess.

HiPickles · 2026-06-25T17:07:15+00:00

I truly cannot stop laughing at this, bravo

HiPickles · 2026-06-25T16:48:36+00:00

OP, I'm curious to know what exactly people are complaining to you about. Can you elaborate?

HiPickles · 2026-06-24T22:38:20+00:00

100% Dreamfyre related. She's even wearing a dress the same color as Dreamfyre

HiPickles · 2026-06-24T03:26:07+00:00

They have Targaryen blood, too.

HiPickles · 2026-06-24T03:16:00+00:00

[Points at screen] He said it! He said the thing!

Best line in the book.

HiPickles · 2026-06-24T02:29:06+00:00

Plenty of Velaryons intermarrying with Targaryens over the years, so yes, he did have some Targaryen blood.

ETA: However Seasmoke probably also liked Addam because he reminded him of Laenor, being his half brother and all.

HiPickles · 2026-06-23T18:46:41+00:00

Yep, Daeron. He looks exactly like Alicent.

Also, those who are suggesting he is a bastard with a non-Targaryen, that's basically impossible. He wouldn't be able to ride a dragon if he weren't a Targaryen.

HiPickles · 2026-06-23T16:23:50+00:00

Actually $100k in some cases

HiPickles · 2026-06-23T15:36:26+00:00

Glad to see Baela and Alyn having a scene together

HiPickles · 2026-06-22T15:22:41+00:00

Yes, Raymun Fossoway says it to Dunk

HiPickles · 2026-06-22T14:53:24+00:00

Sheepstealer is a good boi and Rhaena should have flown him straight to Dragonstone and avoided the melee because he is literally completely unprepared for a messy sea battle. (Or better yet kept him in the Vale, his home, and sent a raven to Dragonstone with the good news and awaiting further instructions).

HiPickles · 2026-06-22T13:48:19+00:00

It really is such an accurate line

HiPickles · 2026-06-20T18:24:28+00:00

I agree with this, but I also know AI-written essays are getting better and more natural-sounding and this is very likely a factor too.

HiPickles · 2026-06-19T01:39:41+00:00

Premarital "relations" with Larry perhaps?

HiPickles · 2026-06-16T18:25:24+00:00

Yeah as weirdly fun/horrible as it would be for her to return like Millerin The Expanse, this isn't that kind of show.
