Why did Rhaenyra assume that Aegon would let her live? Is she stupid?

I’m kinda half serious. Did she just assume he would lock her up or something?

Reminder: When you root for Aegon you're rooting for a disabled widowed single dad who's also a recovering alcoholic

When I think about him I can't help but tear up a little. His story is so inspirational and should be shared with the world.

They talk about blood purity like Rhaenyra didn’t have Harwin’s kids and then act like she was doing a great job keeping the Targaryen bloodline “pure”

I still can't believe people see this scene from Season 1 as anything but an attention seeker's ploy to steal her brother's limelight on HIS FKN BIRTHDAY

When the death of your son’s assassin pains you more than the beheading of your father and grandchild

when asked what matching tattoo Aemond, Aegon and Helaena would got TGC answered "a hand with six fingers" interesting choice cause Jaehaerys had six fingers

Me when I remember Aegon is a male Targaryen in Harrenhal (surely they will not be there by the start of s4?)

Why did people hate Criston Cole so much?

I guess he was really immature and naive thinking Rhaenyra would give up being the queen to go be an orange farmer with him lol

But other than that he was just as shitty a person as most other characters in the show yet so many people celebrated his death like he was Joffrey or Ramsay Bolton and I don't really get it

How funny is it that both Daemon and now Rhaenyra curse this guy, when without him they would've been thrown out from the royal family long ago and wouldn't hold any power!

Honestly nobody but him defended them at court and he's the sole reason for the priviledged life they lived.

Birthing bastards, taking in whores and illegally occupying Dragonstone (Open rebellion 1x2), killing your wife (a noble woman), fighting a war (Stepstones) without the King's permission and using royal funds (and yes dragons belong to the royal family).

So yeah crazy how their fans just turned away from Viserys when the ONLY reason Rhaenyra is a candidate for the throne is, how do they say it....oh yeah "CUZ HER DADDY SAID SO"

I went into a deep dive into how likely it is Cersei and Jaime's offspring would have birth defects

On the plus side, they don't have worse odds than any other pair of siblings that aren't twins (yay for them!)

On the other side, the baseline for sibling offspring is children have a 20 - 40% chance of having birth defects when their parents are siblings (not so yay for them)

Math: If we use a mid-range risk of 30% per child, the chance that a child is born healthy is 70% (0.70).

Three Children: The probability of all three children being born without a defect is (0.70 \times 0.70 \times 0.70 = 34.3%).

The Actual Risk: This means there is a 65.7% chance that at least one of the three children will have a birth defect, which is far from 100%.

Why Past Results Don't Protect Future Children:

The outcome of the first pregnancy has absolutely no effect on the second or third. Genetics has no "memory." If the first child is born completely healthy, the risk for the second child remains exactly 20% to 40%.

This means that even after Joffrey was born "healthy", they still had the same probabilities of diseases for the next children

Conclusion: Twins shouldn't have sex. Lol

Corlys Velaryon calling Aegon when he finds out Rhaenyra made his son kill the high septon and still hasn’t legitimized him.

the greatest loss of this show

I know this topic has been vastly discussed but I've been rewatching some season 1 scenes and WELL she was ready to DIE FOR AEGON and to TAKE AN EYE FOR AEMOND. in season 2 they obliterated alicent, who could have been one of the greatest characters thanks to Olivia's amazing performance. i feel sad for Olivia cause she's an amazing actress, sadly alicent will be remembered as a stupid and ridicolous character

If cersei was the wife of viserys instead of alicent, how different things would be? ( rest stays the same)

Based only on show:)

Accusing anyone who criticizes Rhaenyra of misogyny is getting out of control. Leave the actors alone.

Some fans are now accusing the actors themselves of misogyny. We're talking about people who are simply doing their jobs and promoting a fictional TV show. Apparently, anyone who criticizes Rhaenyra is a misogynist... right up until it's time to hurl misogynistic insults at the actresses playing characters on the opposing side.

The word "misogynist" has become a catch-all label used to smear anyone people dislike because they portray a character they don't like. It's incredibly parasocial and honestly ridiculous.
