rhaenyra's queerness being portrayed explicitly on screen is so monumental. it will recontexualise her relationship with alicent which is the aching, beating heart of the show. why she wanted to run away with alicent on dragonback. why she cried when she saw the torn page

something so delicious about alicent resenting aegon in a way that you usually see mothers resent their eldest daughters. he has her face. he is her duty personified. the boy that was forced on her. one of the first nails in the coffin that would be her relationship with rhaenyra

alicent being cut on the same arm that she cut rhaenyra, and rhaenyra acting on her desires with a woman who is playing the same role that alicent once did in her life, and both occurring in the same episode is insane

the directing of the scene in which alicent attaches criston's cloak seems to be deliberately framed/angled to draw parallels with the scene from s1 in which alicent helped put on rhaenyra's cloak. both scenes also take place in the same physical space (rhaenyra's room)

both alicent and rhaenyra reverting to their youth. alicent is pressured to marry, used as a pawn by the men around her, and caring for an ailing king. rhaenyra taking up the sword like she once wanted to, and acting on her desires in a way she was never able to with alicent

some people are about to act surprised when rhaenyra doesn't harm alicent but instead gives her the truth. when alicent doesn't call the guards on rhaenyra but instead lets her escape. rhaenyra and alicent always have been and will be each other's weaknesses in one way or another

nothing is going to justify keeping alicent away from b&c, or having helaena walk in on her during sex. what a horrid creative decision from professional writers no less. it already sounded bad on paper, and it was worse watching it unfold with my own two eyes

the way rhaenyra's betrayal of alicent's trust served as the catalyst for her donning the green dress and adopting the identity of queen alicent, and now rhaenyra unveiling the truth to alicent after feeling betrayed by her will bring back the blue associated with lady alicent

rhaenyra/mysaria possibly happening next ep makes this scene (which we have yet to see) of mysaria burning a letter even more delicious, esp if it's from alicent who is becoming increasingly disillusioned with the greens and beginning to believe the truth that rhaenyra gave her

walk with my delusions...this is rhaenyra disguised as a septa (rumoured) holding a knife next to/in front of/against alicent. there seems to be a familiarity with how alicent pulls the hand towards her/lowers it (instead of recoiling or pushing away a potential threat) 1/5

rhaenyra is absent but her ghost lingers in the back of alicent's mind; reflected well by the crosscutting & cinematography paralleling s1. the camera is also angled towards alicents right side, emphasising her loneliness, and the gaping void next to her that rhaenyra once filled

i have yet to see a single critic not be weirded out by some of these writing choices involving her character. hbo owes olivia several vacations
“[Olivia Cooke’s] portrayal of Alicent’s slow internal decay is so nuanced and compelling that it almost single-handedly makes up for some of the early mistakes House of the Dragon season 2 makes involving her character.”

the way men in alicent's life have put her into a role/ a neat little box one way or another. the dutiful daughter. the obedient wife. the "gentle-hearted" mother according to cole, who gets to decide when alicent is "spared" of violence that she has been aware of all her life

it's not a coincidence that rhaenyra's acting on her feelings with a woman who's playing the same role in her life as alicent once did. that she's latching on to the first female friendship she's had in years. that she's only able to act on it, now that her groomer is away ‼️

alicent's comment about how rhaenyra would "make a fine queen" being repeated twice this season. rhaenyra latching on to the first close relationship she has had with a woman since alicent, who tells her that she was meant to be queen, and then acting on her desires with her...

as each week passes, i get increasingly curious about these two lines from the teaser. i believe both of them are being spoken to alicent. rhaenrya's line especially "history will paint you a villain" fits alicent the most, considering where they may be taking her character

these two scenes of alicent cloaking rhaenyra, and rhaenyra taking off criston's cloak are parallels of one another. and this will be even more apparent next season with alicent attaching criston's cloak, and all three scenes taking place in the same physical space no less
