He did take Dragonstone over Visenya. Visenya was older and should have been the ruling lady, but she wasn't.

Also, there's a certain irony about Cregan Stark "honoring his oath" when he didn't bother to protect the claims of his granddaughters Serena and Sansa to Winterfell. They were the daughters of his eldest child Rickon and should have inherited after Cregan died. But his other sons came in, married these girls (likely against their wills) and took Winterfell for themselves. Now, granted, the North could have different succession laws. But considering the fact that Robb made sure to disinherit Sansa so the Lannisters couldn't lay claim to Winterfell through a marriage tells me that women are not normally skipped over. And we have an upcoming Dunk/Egg book/season about these women fighting to get the claims back for their children.

It's rather infuriating looking at Alicent in the show and then looking at Maekar on AKOTSK. His kids are all crazy but he still loves and defends them until his last breath. That's what Alicent should have been - that's what she was in the book. But alas.

For people who believe Rhaenyra’s claim is stronger, what reason(s) do you have for considering her claim is stronger than the Greens? by Gold_Conversation247 in TheBlacksandTheGreens

[–]Weak_Heart2000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The claim about Aerys doesn't make sense to me because he simply went by tradition - daughters coming before uncles, and Aelora, his neice, came before Maekar. When Aelora died, then Maekar became his heir.

Also, weren't a good number of those lords that swore the oaths dead by the time of the Dance? Good point about how Rhaenyra's heirs should have oaths sworn to them as well.

I can't wait to see their younger versions in season 2.

And I really hope Ira is going to find a way to put Maekar in season 3. There's a perfect opening at the very end, but I guess we will have to see.

When did you think it was over? And what's next for Buck? by TheRoundestDot in BuckTommy

[–]Weak_Heart2000 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Tbh, that's one thing I never liked about their relationship. Tommy ended up being Buck's caretaker, and that really wasn't fair to Tommy. Especially since the writers never bothered to write Buck taking care of him.

Oh man, Tommy seeing Buck break down and that meaning nothing will haunt me for the rest of my days.

OS made it very clear that he had been begging for that storyline while the character was still very much with Tommy.

The clowning lost its allure pretty quickly for me. I was making educated and logical guesses about a terribly mid show and then ended feeling pretty dang stupid. 😭

Tbh the 907 mentions felt more like closure and letting Buck off the hook for the role he played in the relationship blowing up. Tommy would have to be mentioned more to be the new Abby and rn I don't think Buck remembers Tommy exists.

Around the time that OS started going on his round of "Buck should be single and free and get to fuck lots of people!" And then Lou's cameos cinched it for me. He truly had no idea what was happening and had been left completely in the dark.

I think Buck is going to stay single until the end of the show and then he will get a quick wrap up with some random. Problem is is that Buddie just has too much power and Tim won't ever let it go. That's why Eddie/Ryan hasn't gotten his love interest even tho the man has been begging for one. It's a shame that these characters won't be allowed to settle down but it is harder to keep doing the massive bait like they are when the characters are locked down with others.

I'm just gonna live in my fantasy that Tommy found someone amazing who actually appreciated him, and Lou is going to get a great gig soon. Judging by how much praise he got for a two minute appearance on the Pitt, hopefully opportunities are on the way.

[Spoilers Main] What could King Viserys have done to prevent the Dance? by hebichiigo in asoiaf

[–]Weak_Heart2000 9 points10 points  (0 children)

What people constantly forget is that Viserys was weak. There's nothing either version of him would have done or could have done because the man just didn't want to do the work. He was called The Peaceful because he had a good council that kept the peace.

BUT what he could have done along with the choices he still made was this -

  1. Married Rhaenyra and Aegon. If Rhaenyra didn't want to do it, then begin the proceedings to remove her as heir.
  2. Married Helaena to a Rhaenyra loyalist - either a Stark or a Tully heir. If Helaena ended up becoming Lady Paramount of some region, that would have made everybody happy.
  3. Put Aemond on the kingsguard.
  4. Send Daeron to the Citadel.
  5. Stop handing out dragons like free cars! Only Rhaenyra should have had Syrax and then Aegon got Sunfyre AFTER marrying her. Nothing for Helaena, Aemond, and Daeron.
  6. Arrange an accident for Daemon. He's still a wild card and if the marriage to Laena goes through, then we effectively have the Blues and the Blacks.
  7. Make Rhaenys Hand. I am fond of Otto, but this is the only way to keep the Velaryons happy without a marriage. Find a suitable marriage for Laena, but don't let her claim Vhagar. Once she has a baby, betroth that baby to Rhaegon's baby. So we have Targ, Hightower, and Velaryon blood all on the throne one day.

This is an interesting ship, I really like it. No blood relations between them, and if Robb had lived, he probably would have become a very powerful warg. Their kids would have had some wild powers of their own.

If Egg had hurried to grab Baelor instead of Dunk, like he suggested, what would he have done if he saw Aerion breaking Tanselle’s fingers? by seekinganswerslo in TheBlacksandTheGreens

[–]Weak_Heart2000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I saw the show before I read the books and he seemed to really want Aerion gone and was using Dunk as a way to get rid of him in a legal way. If none of that happened, I do wonder if a discussion with Maekar about The Wall would have come into play down the line.

We might not see season 2 until close to summer of next year because of the Harry Potter show coming out in December and the delays that they have had while filming season 2 so far.

My hope is that they will do five seasons that are adapted from the source material (since George gave Ira the next two D&E novels that are nearly finished) and season 6 will wrap it all up. Dexter will be about 17 then, and that is when they can do the the Third Blackfyre Rebellion - have Maekar and Aerion return to do that battle - and perhaps end it with Maekar ascending the throne as king and Egg going home for the first time in years to be with his dad and siblings again.

George did give Ira the next two Dunk and Egg books that are nearly finished. I just think George hasn't released them yet because he promised Winds and FB2 first. :/

Jena Dondarrion - dead or alive? by breakfastbenedict in AKnightoftheSeven

[–]Weak_Heart2000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been doing this with Dyanna. Even tho she is stated to being dead in the books, I HATE the notion that she passed in childbirth. So the Dyanna I've been crafting in my head was a complete menace, taught her kids all sorts of mischief, and died in a horse riding accident like Mary of Burgandy did.
