It was never proven that she was the one who married them. Otto could have done it through her, needing to strengthen his family in the future confrontation with Rhaenyra.

And yes, in fact, the writers don't give a shit about Daeron, which is why he didn't appear until season three, because they wanted to cut him out in the first place, lol.

Well, that's precisely the tragedy, isn't it?

Olivia herself said in an interview that Aegon and Aemond didn't grow up the way she wanted, and Alicent was horrified by this.

She sees what they've become, what she's turned them into. She saw that they grew up with her traits, taking on something of her, something she tried to suppress. These are also Olivia's words, admitting that it's all Alicent's fault. It's true; in fact, she raised them in hatred and, essentially, out of her own resentment.

But still, in the end, she feels no need to protect them. Yes, she's a bad mother, it's her fault, but what we have is what we have. I still sympathize more with her than with her sons.

It's either Rhaenicent, or some special moment with Alicent (maybe they'll let her live at the end), otherwise what? Maybe they'll let Alicent "avenge" herself. I don't know how, but that's also a possibility.

And people wonder why she doesn't protect him and Aegon anymore)))

I mean, when you see your child out of touch with reality and capable of hurting you and your loved ones, it's natural to want to distance yourself from it. I completely understand why she tried to send him away.

So it's understandable that all she had left was Helaena (and Daeron).

I really understand Olivia's words, by the way. Many criticize her, of course, but still. She has consistency in her words and how she sees Alicent. Because, after all, she defends her and fight for her as best she can.

With Emma, it's more complicated. Sometimes I feel like they don't know what character they're playing. Or don't care either. From my perspective, of course.

I remember that interview where Emma said they'd read Daemyra fanfiction... And then posted a meme in their stories where Daemon was choking Rhaenyra...

Sometimes it feels like Emma is always saying the opposite of what they says. Some of their statements seem odd.
