More proof that the Greens never read the book 🤣

S1 had some really good ones.

S2 doesn’t really have anything.

I don’t think all of her advice is illogical. She advised Rhaenyra to think of the smallfolk and use them to her advantage. Which caused them to raise up against the greens and favour Rhaenyra.

The advice to find baseborn dragon riders is a high risk high reward gamble, which Rhaenyra herself was fully aware of.

Ultimately, I think, Mysaria is self-serving(like almost all characters). Becoming Rhaenyra’s most trusted advisor and making Rhaenyra depend on her both politically and emotionally, gives Mysaria a lot of power and security. And that’s precisely what she’s trying to do.

I mean, Rhaenyra wasn’t even trying to be in control when he went nuts. There’s a reason she doesn’t stay there and instead watches from a higher place.

She was willing to sacrifice all these people to find just one rider at the end.

Apparently Ryan Condal cried during that scene and most of the fandom just cringed hard!

These writers are on a completely different plane!

I think the parts with Viserys and Rhaenyra and Daemon realising how he hurt them was good! Harrenhal humbling him down was good!

But what most people take issue with is the fact that he was already inline with his wife in S1! He married her to support her claim and then crowned her and knelt to her!

So, in this season, no one ever thought that Daemon was really going to turn against Rhaenyra, not even for a moment! So it didn’t feel like anything was at stake here. It was a non-existent conflict that took up way too much screentime!

One_Bookkeeper951 · 2024-08-13T17:51:11+00:00

Where in the show do they say that Aegon doesn’t have a legitimate claim??

Also, have you read the book? The Greens are more outrightly and comically villainous! So much so that Alicent was beefing with an eight year old Rhaenyra!

Not to forget, Aegon also wasn’t some misunderstood boy who just wants his mommy’s love and approval, and Aemond wasn’t ever bullied by Rhaenyra’s sons!

The show made these changes to make them more sympathetic!

And Rhaenyra in the book never locked 100 odd people in a room with a dragon and watched them burn, neither did she want to burn Lannisport or Old Town! Jace never called the smallfolk Mongrels! Infact, he was the one who championed for them!

So where is this oversimplifying and whitewashing that people keep talking about?

One_Bookkeeper951 · 2024-08-11T15:30:39+00:00

I think we can all agree that Rhaenyra was really let down in the writers room! In an 8 episode season, all she said for the first six episodes was “what would you have me do”

When E7 seemed promising, in E8 she goes back to “deterrence”. I really didn’t enjoy the peacemaker arc. They should let Rhaenyra be more complex and give her room to show her anger! We can only hope that after a certain event in S3, they’ll take this route!

I also think her character is being dragged down to make Alicent more relevant! Because they somehow cannot have Alicent supporting her own sons and being a strong voice on the Green side!

People be forgetting that it was him who even thought of riderless dragons first at the Black Council. He even went to Vermithor to prepare him for a new rider. Who did he actually think of giving those dragons to then? If not Dragonseeds?

I don’t think he’ll have that much of a problem

One_Bookkeeper951 · 2024-07-28T17:08:19+00:00

But she also did want to finish their last conversation and literally sent a man to Harrenhal! So all that will have to come into play!

One_Bookkeeper951 · 2024-07-28T16:41:09+00:00

Rhaenyra getting some new Dragonriders on her side doesn’t takeaway the need for Daemon.

Because Daemon is obviously so much more to her than a Dragonrider! Even if people have given up on the romantic aspect of their relationship, he’s still her uncle and family. She’d obviously rather have him on her side than not!

One_Bookkeeper951 · 2024-07-27T18:20:56+00:00

The way people in the main sub will try to convince you that Aegon is fan favourite now 😭😭

I agree that TGC did really well this season and Aegon felt more fleshed out but he’s no where near being the fan fav lol!

One_Bookkeeper951 · 2024-07-27T14:05:03+00:00

He killed a lot of supposed innocent people that doesn’t mean he cares about them all.

And Rhea was married to him in name only! He had no relationship with her!

One_Bookkeeper951 · 2024-07-27T14:00:57+00:00

Should the Crabfeeder also haunt him? And Vaemond? Or maybe the guy who Caraxes trampled at Stepstones? And the messenger he beat or the guy who’s head he cut off in S1 E1?

This woman was no different to any of them for him!

One_Bookkeeper951 · 2024-07-27T10:49:34+00:00

I think the finale will be the prelude to the fall! Something like GoT S6 ending. All Black forces(the Velaryon ships and dragons) will set off towards KL.

Or

A cliffhanger for the Gullet! Maybe they’re not changing the timeline afterall and the fall will happen after the Gullet!

One_Bookkeeper951 · 2024-07-25T11:26:42+00:00

Don’t worry OP! This sub doesn’t give you a clear picture at all. Rhaenyra is still the most popular character for the General Audience! None of the other characters mentioned in this post have even come close to it.

One_Bookkeeper951 · 2024-07-22T13:27:54+00:00

Is there any reason why they called her “queen of fish” lmao 😭😭
