ConquistadoR

The Rogue Prince
@ConquistadoR Paddy has been the best actor in the show. He needs to win something.

Regarding Aemond/Daemon, I think both feel a certain connection toward the other, they kinda are like "That guy...ohoh, that guy is like me". They have a sort of acknowledment/"admiration" for one another.
Yeah Paddy's definitely taking home awards for the last episode. He was great!

Yeah, he's like a perfect reflection of the Rogue Prince's chaotic self 20 odd years ago. They are like the two charismatic characters in their sides atp. Aemond would probably be Daemon's favourite among the younger generation of Targeryens/Velaryons had the infighting not started. Though, Daemon is still the baddest mf in the 7 Kingdoms XD.
 
honestly whenever i look at media and people’s discussions on the show i get disappointed

half of the people watching on reddit and twitter don’t comprehend what’s happening and only cheering for team black they don’t comprehend that the greens could have some good in them and can be morally grey which basically every character in the show idk why the blacks are looked as saints

i seen some people blatantly lie to interpret scenes to the way they want to in their headcanon

It's the internet. That sort of tribalism happens all the time, for everything. My favs=good, yours=bad

You can even see the same thing happen here on WG when discussing OP or any other manga as well.. it's the internet, that's what people do.

Plot twist: He's Daemon's favorite anyway.


Though, Daemon is still the baddest mf in the 7 Kingdoms XD.
My favorite badass moment of Daemon is definitely his one man initiative in the Stepstones, throwing himself at the wolfs (crabs doesn't sound quite as badass lol) to make his plan work.


When it comes to Aemond, him going to at this juggernaut's place

And claiming her while being so young.
"I might have lost an eye but I've gained a dragon" in front of everyone:steef:

Also him training with Cole.

And he has some of the best trashtalk in the show:sadgrin:
 

Fujishiro

Lead them to paradise.

Join R/Freefolk, people know to discuss things there.
 
Alright, I watched the ep and here are my thoughts with book spoilers
The Dance starting becuase of a misunderstanding from Viserys on his deathbed is pretty stupid. It's sitcom level of convoluted. Also, Cole killing Beesbury by smashing his head on the table was unnecessary when we already had two options for it in the book - both better than what we got.

Also, the guards at the Red Keep are borderline mentally handicapped - it was said no one leaves until the business is done, i.e. Aegon is crowned, yet they open the gate for that one lord...only to drag him from his horse a moment later.

Also, Aegon's coronation looked great...until the stupidest scene in the whole season happened. What's stopping her from blasting them all with her dragon then and there? Rhaenys isn't some young girl not to know what comes after Aegon's coronation, and she could have put a stop to most of the problems in that moment.


Also also, that Alicent and Clubfoot jerk off scene... bruh

what were the two options?


man i love ser criston he's unhinged and doesn't give a single fuck and does what he wants my role model fr /s

i love cristons and aemond relationship, cole seems the only person ameond is close too

and as expected aemond is badass

as for aegon he sure looks like he wants to be king now lol

i also like how humanized alicent is, about time they were treating the greens as the worst villains to ever exist


@NikaInParis should i read the books or nah

basically, in Fire and Blood there are tow conflicting narratives of the Dance. Among the conflicting reports is the fate of Lord Beesbury.
One narration tells us Criston slit his throat right there at the table.
The other says that he was thrown out of the window of the council chamber, down onto spikes that surround that part of the castle.

Both of those sound better imo


The original series? Or Fire and Blood? @Tobra

The answer is yes either way lol, if you like the universe already

The original series especially is waaaaaay richer with content than the TV show.
 
Just finished watching it, what an ep. Rhaenys, holy shit. Was at the coronation, left and came back crushing the party with her dragon, she legit had everyone there pissing their pants while she was staring at them from her high ground, looking so badass in her armor, and had his dragon make a little scream which I bet had some shitting themselves as well. She could have killed them all but decided to leave, be like "The message has been fucking sent, Alicent Hightower. You know where I stand".:datas:

@ConquistadoR Bro thoughts on Rhaenys's scene?


@NikaInParis They had been planning anyway to insert Aegon on the throne before Alicent told them what Viserys had said to her on his last breath. Yeah they ended up deciding to use what Alicent told them (because why not use it?) but they had been plotting since before any of this.

Of course she could have killed them all right on the spot, but then this would be a mini-series with a single season

Criston is annoying me. I guess it makes him a good character...
