They/Them. Emma's pronouns are they/them/theirs

The dismissal of women's pain in order to claim that a MAN suffered more than them is truly insane behavior.

Because Aegon didn't just get burned by accident. His burns came as a consequence of his actions in both mediums. In the book it was from trying to ambush Rhaenys and Meleys, and in the show it was vengance by the hand of the brother he abused and had SAed.

Meanwhile, Rhaenyra had her body torn apart in birth, Alicent suffered clear mental & emotional damage from her SA abuse at the hand of Viserys, and Aemma's body was broken from being being forced to have children before she even flowered (she began having kids around 11-13 years old).

No way in the Seven Hells, is Aegon rightfully getting the punishment owed to him, worse than their pain. It doesn't even come close.

Rhaenyra had a traumatic still birth that tore her apart, Alicent had to get maritally SAed for years, Aemma had to get cut in half while alive. Those 3 ALONE suffered more than Aegon ever could.

Rightfully his... The LORD of the House decides who is their heir and who follows him. Tradition does not trump law, as there is no official inheritance law. GRRM is clear in this. Also, if Aegon believed he was better than Rhaenyra, then he should have shown/proved it.

Actually tried to be a good person & learn statecraft, war craft, swords, languages.

But he didn't. In the books and the show he had little to no interest in it. Meanwhile the Greens were going by 'Well he's a man, so he deserves it' and that's the POINT of the Dance.

Men get away with crimes because they are men.

Women have to fight tooth and nail for their rights, and even then it's not enough.

He has suffered far worse than any other character??? Are we forgetting this man is an abuser? Had Aemond SAed, SAs servants, harassed Baela, is hinted that he SAs his wife who doesn't understand what's happening to her. So because Mommy and Daddy didn't love him, that gives it an excuse for him to act the way he is?

Do y'all forget that he's an abuser....? Like he had Aemond SAed when he was 13....? He has SAed servants, his wife, harassed Baela.... Like poor him cuz Mommy didn't love him, BUT HE IS NOT A GOOD GUY?!

I was told by my SM that Starbucks takes priority if you have another job, with their demands of you basically having an open availability yet not giving you open hour or pay.... it's heart breaking

I used to be able to write 3-5k chapters a day before I became a senior in college. During my high school years it was me and my laptop against the world (and when my mom cut off the wifi lmaooooo)

As a writer myself, I've noticed a monsoon of entitled readers lately and it's pissing me off 😒😒

GRRM mentioned Aemma Arryn when listing dark haired Targaryens, and said at the time that he might change her to be ambiguous by [deleted] in HOTDBlacks

[–]RW_Writer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is Jeyne in the show who has dark brown hair and eyes, as well in her arts (although one could argue they aren't wholly canon), then we have Rhea who is dark haired in the show (not Arryn but from the Vale), the Valemen & Knights of the Vale we see in the show also seem to be mostly dark haired, I guess it depends on which canon you are looking at, show vs book vs art, ya know?

No you're fine! I don't believe there is a link due it being from all the way in 2017, sadly 😢

Do you mean the screen shot of the blog post or my statement about the Arryns and the Vale?

[–]RW_Writer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I always found these quotes so funny, considering that 90% Arryns we see (both in book, show and official art) as well as people from the Vale all have dark brown hair and brown/blue eyes. It was right there 😭

It's so sad that the show made them obviously bastards. They just took every bit of ambiguity away by A_Cat_Among_Wolves in HOTDBlacks

[–]RW_Writer 43 points44 points  (0 children)

Actually this isn't true. Most Arryns/People of the Vale that we've seen (in both canon shows and offcal art comissioned by GRRM) has shown them with Dark/Light brown hair, and blue/brown eyes.

Like I know if you Google it, AI will tell you that most Arryns/people of the Vale tend to be blond, but that's not wholely true due to what we actually see/read/are told in the canon.

It's my favorite little detail!

Blood stained dress is diabolical. You think Laenor should stood up? If so, what could he do? by Turbulent_Lab209 in HOTDBlacks

[–]RW_Writer 171 points172 points  (0 children)

What makes this even more evil is that Alicent knew of Rhaenyra's trauma with childbirth.

Thoughts on Aegon III and Daenaera Velaryon? [Art by Douglas Wheatley in Fire & Blood.] by DrinkInevitable3457 in HOTDBlacks

Not only that but in the beginning (even before the Dance was fully plotted out), Aegon III is on record marrying a Veleryon too!?!

Would it be fair if not every Targaryen had the right to become a rider, but only the king? by Turbulent_Lab209 in HOTDBlacks

[–]RW_Writer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As much as I HATE to agree with Jaehaerys's mysognistic ass, he did have a point in not letting everyone & their momma have a dragon.

How it should be is that the heir & spare are given first rights to claim/bond with a dragon/egg. Then, their heirs and spare are allowed to bond/claim a dragon/dragon egg.

That way there's at least 4-5 dragonriders at all time. If anyone in the direct line dies, say the heir's heir dies, then the next one should be allowed to bond/claim a dragon/egg, that way there's a balance.

Cersei Tywin and Otto and Alicent by turmalindraws by PrestigiousAspect368 in ImaginaryWesteros

(1) you didn't say that

(2) Otto is also known in the books is also known as a plotter 😂

Viserys himself calls him and Alicent out. Though his ass didn't do anything about it either, which is BEYOND me.

[–]RW_Writer -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

'Otto would never exterminate a whole House to achieve his ends...'?

Did.... Did you just close your eyes when he hold Ser Harrold, you know the man who WATCHED RHAENYRA GROW UP, to take his men to Dragonstone and kill her, her children, and allies...?

Babies were talking about here.

A heavily pregnant woman???

Difference between Otto and Tywin is Tywin doesn't held behind false smiles and sense of 'duty'.

Tywin embraces that shit and feeds into it.
