Is it obvious to all the people who say ‘don’t complain’ yet? .Thus far they have:.• Aged down Alicent for her marriage.• Significantly reduced Laena & Laenor’s characters after making them POC.• Made Rhea Royce’s death into a shock value murder by Evil Daemon.• Erased all—.

Can I say that, if they are going this route, I absolutely hate it? I can absolutely see them trying to make Dany’s babies Syrax’s, despite the theory/evidence of them being Dreamfyre’s. It would provide a more direct line between Nyra & Dany, but imo it lessens Rhaena’s magic.

I will die on the hill that Rhaenyra’s Velaryon boys actually had super dark purple eyes, the SAME COLOR that Aegon III is described as having. Like TELL ME that that isn’t intentional?!.

In the most serious manner I can muster, can we address how atrocious & disgusting this is? I don’t say it to condemn TGC or ‘hate’ on him, I’m saying this rhetoric is dangerous. He is an unapologetic SAer & I feel very disturbed at the show trying to paint him as sympathetic.

*Queen Rhaena, the Black Bride, who was one of the women whose connection to dragons was seemingly stronger. Although, with Rhaena of Pentos—if they take away her hatching of Morning, it also lessens another woman’s magic in the story—along with Nettles!!!.

Can we not? Like, I’m all for Rhaenyra having some basic sword training & wielding one in defense of herself, but since when is being martial the end-all, be-all of being a ruler? Aenys, Jaehaerys, & Viserys were not particularly great swordsmen? .(1/?).

Respectfully, I don’t think you’re being entirely fair here—especially by insinuating that being angry about certain show only things means we’re ‘loosing our minds’. Team stuff aside, they have added unnecessary violence to women multiple times in this show, that wasn’t—.

@fkadaenerys No, bc why is it whenever a woman is in a position of power in media, she has to have her femininity stripped away from her to be seen as legitimate!?!! It’s giving ‘not-like-other-girls’ when WE ALL KNOW Book!Nyra was a girls’ girl thru & thru👏.

@HoboOda They were likely Queen Rhaena Targaryen’s dragon Dreamfyre’s eggs, that were stolen by her love, Elissa Farman. Elissa sailed west of Westeros, & later Corlys saw her ship in Asshai. Daenerys’ eggs were said to come from Asshai👍.

Rhaella, mother of Rhaegar, Viserys, & Daenerys, is such an overlooked Targaryen, it’s mind boggling to me. I want her life story; I want her private thoughts; I want her relationship with Elia & her grandchildren; I want all the hopes she had for Dany as she held her🥺😭💔.

Just so we’re clear—HotD s1 sidelining Laena & the Dragon Twins was, indeed, racist. If they follow through on this rumor of conflating Rhaena & Nettles storylines—it will be because of racism, & will erase the special magic of TWO POC women.

I cannot explicitly state any clearer how much I do not care about Alicent Hightower’s pain— the fact is she continuously used what power she had to hurt people, plain & simple. I want her beheaded, frankly. Stop trying to pretend she’s a victim only, it’s insulting to everyone.

@daenerysim Imo, it goes hand-in-hand with the Targaryen’s acclimating to Andal culture. The further they separate from Valyrian roots, the more they fall. If one the Conqueror’s truly was a Dreamer, they seemed to understand what needed to be done (united Westeros).

(2)—present in the books. Yes, it’s true the books don’t present the full truth or even close to it, but we can make assumptions based on what we know of this world, & how secondary sources work irl. But again, all that aside, is it necessary for the show to push, in EVERY way—.

Take away the Crown conflict— it will ALWAYS be irresponsible & gross to paint a serial SAer as someone whose ‘sympathetic’. Frankly, I DO NOT care what creates these monsters, I don’t have empathy for them—I have empathy for the DROVES of people whose lives are ruined by them.

@fkadaenerys Personally, it comes down to how they are portrayed (in & out of in-universe text). Imo, a good portion of Maegor ‘fans’ even admit how bad he was to his wives, & his most cruel acts. Ultimately, as a ruler, he was necessary to continue House Targaryen & the fear of the Dragons—.

(2) Book!Nyra was all about draping herself in decadence, & looking the part of her station (Princess, for the majority of her life). That does not make her any less suited to being a ruler, nor does it make her vain or vapid. Surprisingly, it doesn’t even seem to be used—.

@theblacks_ in my head, Aemma has never liked Otto & can see thru his bull, just not quite as much as Daemon. She’s uneasy around his family, & is wary of Rhaenyra spending so much time with Alicent, & worries if Otto is having her spy on Rhae. A bit of a baseless theory but 🤷♀️.

Arguing about whether or not Alicent is a ‘main character’ of the Dance is actually not the point here? The point is that this is RHAENYRA’S story, & she has been sidelined when she is portrayed by an enby actor👏 additionally, has been sidelined & defamed as a character bc of—.

@fkadaenerys One day I will write my thesis on how if the Dance hadn’t of happened, the main branch of House Velaryon would’ve become Dragonlords as well, thru LUCERYS & RHAENA and because of Rhaenys, Corlys, Rhaenyra, Laena, & Daemon, but no one wants to recognize that, huh?.

(3)—against her by the Greens (as far as I can recall). But instead, irl, these showrunners, much like D&D, see anything traditionally ‘feminine’ as a weakness to cut out, despite it being a very neutral trait (much like how Arya & Brienne were ‘not like other girls’-ified).

@stormfyres I do genuinely believe it’s because, just like Westerosi history villain-izes Visenya for not fitting the Andal gender stereotypes, Rhaenys is positioned to fit the docile woman stereotype better & thus is projected as such, & some of this fandom believe it too much.

If Rhaena had ascended the throne post Maegor’s death, she probably would’ve been known as the ‘Black Queen’, mixing her ‘Black Bride’ & ‘Queen’ titles😭.& if Rhaenys had succeeded Jaehaerys (LIKE SHE SHOULD HAVE), she’d probably adopt Meleys’ moniker of the ‘Red Queen’.
