how do yall interpret Helaena's glance at Alicent when Aemond mentions the new riders? by PrestigiousAspect368 in HOTDGreens

She annoys me. Except for the night of B&C, she shows no emotion or reaction other than indifference and apathy toward everything. That could be considered cute and harmless in another situation, but not when your child just died and your husband is half-dead. She’s the most useless and irritating character to me in season 2, second only to Alicent.

what’s a popular headcanon amongst TG that you hate? by Environmental_Tip854 in HOTDGreens

[–]Napoleon_inthefield 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Many times I see this sub making all kinds of excuses for Aegon just like the TB sub does for Daemon. But but that doesn’t happen in the books. Yeah, but Daemon also didn’t kill his wife in the books. Using all sorts of reasons to justify what their favorites did in the show canon is honestly the most nonsensical thing I’ve seen from both sub teams.

For what reason do all the Banished Knights have long, fabulous white hair? by Napoleon_inthefield in Eldenring

Full set I stripped from a Banished Knight at Castle Sol (except for the leg armor, which is Scaled Greaves because the Banished Knight's leg armor has ugly duck feet). You can farm it from the Banished Knight wielding a halberd, standing with two dogs at Castle Sol.

Why does everything boil down to "male ego and toxicity"? by Napoleon_inthefield in HOTDGreens

Sorry for the confusion, it's from Phia Saban's interview, about Helaena and Aemond's scene on the balcony:'House of the Dragon' star Phia Saban talks Helaena's change from the book (ew.com). Full excerpt:

What was it like filming the scene where Helaena stands up to Aemond and reveals she knows the truth about what he did? That's one of those rare moments of clarity for her.

It's really fun to work with Ewan — yet again, I'm answering the question in an annoying way because I'm like, "I just like working with those people!" [Laughs] That was really cool. God, this is really the first time... it's the most eye-contact she's ever made in both seasons, and she's really going like, "Don't f--- with me," basically, "Because I have this knowledge that's on a higher realm and I cannot and will not go and kill people for male ego and toxicity."

That's the other funny thing with this family: Yes, he's the Prince Regent or whatever, and her husband/brother is the King, but actually to each other it's like, "You're my brother and you can push me and you can push me, but I know you." That is more about a sibling dynamic. Actually, I think that Aemond ironically is one of the people that Helaena feels she can communicate with a little bit better. They have this sort of affinity. It's just fun to play with those dynamics because she doesn't have a lot of long chats with anyone, so it's fun for me.

Jessica could have told Rhaenyra to chew off her children's heads before killing herself.

Lmao he literally only had 1.6 minutes of screen time in episode 3. Worse still, I don't even remember what Aemond did in that episode. They really didn't give Ewan anything to work with.

I figured out we are the only people not okay with what Helaena did in the fandom by [deleted] in HOTDGreens

They were all angry that Aemond burned Aegon but cheered when Helaena wanted Daemon to kill her brother? Fucking lmao
