Are Daemon and Rhaenyra in a sort of open marriage?

It seems to me that each of them has already sort of cheated on the other, but also I don't believe that either one would care who the other sleeps with.

This aligns with what he said about marriage being just a political arrangement and they can **** who they want.

What do you think about that?

I have to say, despite not being surprised, I’m disappointed that these guys have been essentially background characters, after two episodes in.

Blackwood didn’t even get any lines. She was just there.

Hugh & Ulf are doomed, regardless of the outcome of the War

Their entire existence is a direct threat to Targaryan rule, because they aren't high-born. Leaving them alive would just pose a massive risk in the future. The Targaryans must protect their narrative that only noble Targs can ride Dragons, and Hugh/Ulf stand in direct opposition to that, just by existing.

Lets say the Blacks now win with little more Casualties. Daemon would assassinate them in their sleep after just a few days probably.

And switching sides doesnt help either, as Aemond would do the same as Daemon.

Addam has an out, because Corlys has no heirs and would just officially name him Velaryon. But Hugh and Ulf are practically doomed either way.

Rhae & Sheepstealer.

I'm re-watching the first two episodes with my husband and I cannot stop laughing, thinking about Rhaena running all over the Vale, following this crusty old dragon with an under bite and bad attitude.

She basically wears him down to the point where he gives in and tolerates her presence.

When I saw the first episode a week before it premiered (my ex works for HBO, I saw ep 1-4 early) I literally laughed out loud when he went hunting and regurgitated the sheep to feed this white haired witch who just wouldn't go away. 😫

An interesting set of lore questions

In your opinion do you think dragon eggs can hatched a pair of twin dragons?

And in the case of cradle eggs do only one of the twins bond with the baby?

Can twin dragons be claimed by the same question?

If the rider of one twin has a twin too does it increases the chances of the rider's twin claiming the dragon's twin?

I must have answers before I fall deeper into this rabbit hole of questions

What do you think would happen if Daemon gave her Harrenhal? Simon and his family be furious? Freys? It's strange that she even asked for it.

Would Rhaenyra still have executed Otto Hightower if Alicent & Helaena were already in the throne room?

Had an interesting “what if” thought.

Do you think Rhaenyra would have still beheaded Otto Hightower if Alicent and Helaena were already present in the throne room? Say they were dragged in moments before Daemon brought Otto out.

Alicent would undoubtedly beg for her father’s life to be spared, but would Rhaenyra actually be swayed? Especially considering she already seemed grateful that Alicent kept her word, ensuring a (more or less) bloodless takeover of the city.

Would that lingering gratitude make her hesitate, or would Daemon's influence win out, ensuring Otto's immediate execution regardless?
