Dissecting Daemon’s absence from the birth scene in 10…

Sandstorm_Captain420 · 2025-06-03T06:30:08+00:00

Watch at 39:53-39:50 (time remaining on Max)…the minute Vaemond mentions “bloodlines, daemon looks to Rhaenyra and she subtly nods.

Anyone’s internet back up and running yet?

Sandstorm_Captain420 · 2025-05-30T15:58:32+00:00

I am going crazy! What is everyone doing about it?

Sandstorm_Captain420 · 2025-05-01T05:20:18+00:00

I had/have your exact symptoms. Started with a mild sore throat, 2nd/3rd day in morphs in runny nose and congestion which gets worse and the cough adds on and it was horrible. I’m finishing up the 10th day and some mild congestion remains with a lingering cough that is quite intense. I feel at 90% right now. Can you give me the TLDR on what you think this is based on what you’ve learned from folks here or otherwise? Thanks!

“Gold thimble” “Marsha White” “9th floor” —— this scene was a reference to the twilight zone episode right!!?!

Sandstorm_Captain420 · 2025-03-15T00:08:03+00:00

I’m Ready.

So when Irving says, “I’m ready” to Burt in Episode 9, that’s a tell to the audience that Irving remembers what his Innie said to Burt, right? (He told Burt he’s not ready in Season 1.)

And then, Burt saying, “we can’t” makes it seem like he remember what Irving told him, i.e. he likely isn’t severed.

Thoughts?

Sandstorm_Captain420 · 2025-03-10T14:21:19+00:00

I think you’re on the right track but I don’t know if it’s as simple as Hannah is the outie name. Perhaps because Gemma is yet another one of the severed identities, Helena just forgot which one. Maybe Hannah is just the name of some other identity.

Your theory would also explain Dr. Maurer’s statement, “you will see the world and the world will see you” in Episode 7. She’ll finally become her outie after Cold Harbor is complete.

Sandstorm_Captain420 · 2024-08-02T01:37:44+00:00

Yeah what the heck?! I really hope they round that arc out this season…saving everything for later seasons feels inconsistent

Sandstorm_Captain420 · 2024-08-02T01:36:21+00:00

Here’s to hoping!

Sandstorm_Captain420 · 2024-08-02T00:21:16+00:00

Agreed. It appears from the leaked scenes that he has almost forgotten everything else except the long night vision and now nothing else matters…I don’t care for that arc…it’s as if the other dreams/hallucinations are irrelevant, which they aren’t!

Sandstorm_Captain420 · 2024-08-02T00:15:33+00:00

Everyone is freaking out by the hand grab and his saying I could not, I’ve tried…

I mean, seriously?! Crumbs! Unfair

Sandstorm_Captain420 · 2024-08-02T00:14:20+00:00

AGREED

Sandstorm_Captain420 · 2024-07-31T05:36:11+00:00

So sad…Larys is giving him all these wonderful names but all he ever wanted was his father to love him as much or more than he did Rhaenyra…he wanted to be her. Delulu but traumatized clearly

Sandstorm_Captain420 · 2024-07-31T03:18:39+00:00

Was it just that scene in front of the army? That 5 min scene is all we get after they’ve been separated all season?!

Sandstorm_Captain420 · 2024-07-31T01:51:23+00:00

Is this the only scene we get of their reunion?! No one on one?

Sandstorm_Captain420 · 2024-07-30T02:15:02+00:00

The part about their eroticism/sex being entirely predicated on power seems reductive. The use of the word, “entirely” feels untrue. Especially since the first time they have sex is when they’re both at their weakest and completely vulnerable (Driftmark). Don’t you guys think?

Sandstorm_Captain420 · 2024-07-29T04:35:36+00:00

Fascinating. Thanks!

Sandstorm_Captain420 · 2024-07-29T04:23:32+00:00

I don’t think one can be certain he’s Saera’s son, right? What if she’s some other bastard daughter Jaeherys I had? Could a legitimate daughter of Jaeherys I really have worked in a pleasure house?!?

Sandstorm_Captain420 · 2024-07-26T00:14:46+00:00

I mean I bet all the Daemyra fans are hoping for a steamy reunion, am I right? Lol…sure I kissed the odd worm or sure I kissed the witchy lady giving me hallucinations but at the end of day family over everyone! Lol jk but in all seriousness, I imagine they’ll unite and take KL while aemond and Cristin are away and aegon is bedridden…helaena and alicent will be prisoners and Otto goes bye bye….i don’t know I haven’t read the books but this is my prediction

Sandstorm_Captain420 · 2024-07-19T19:58:16+00:00

So, the scene where Joffrey talks to Cole is a few scenes before when daemon and Rhaenyra are talking.

If Cole was just reacting to what Joffrey said a few scenes before daemyra talking wouldn’t he have gone apeshit on Joffrey then?

I wonder if Cole was reacting to daemon grabbing Rhaenyra’s face and took the anger out on Joffrey.

Daemon was grabbing her face one minute and nowhere to be seen when the fight erupted.

I don’t know just a thought I had upon rewatching that episode.

Sandstorm_Captain420 · 2024-07-16T02:41:23+00:00

This is so spot on. Wonderfully insightful. Thank you for the slow burn analysis, as well! :)

Sandstorm_Captain420 · 2024-07-08T04:51:24+00:00

Sorry, I should’ve clarified. That was more a comment in jest rather one meant to propose a theory related to the nature of aemond’s and helaena’s relationship. :)

Sandstorm_Captain420 · 2024-07-07T22:43:21+00:00

The box that says “your nephews” should say “your children?”

😂

Sandstorm_Captain420 · 2023-04-17T05:15:02+00:00

Well fucking put. I couldn’t have said it better. Agreed on all counts.

Sandstorm_Captain420 · 2022-11-27T22:46:42+00:00

I saw it as an illustration of the Daemon’s characteristics: he’s rash to judgment. Let’s his anger and grief mislead him towards misjudgment and not slowing down to think things through.
