DID 👏 HE 👏 STUTTER 👏 CHARLIE 👏

(◍•ᴗ•◍)❤

this has to be one of the dumbest takes I’ve ever seen

I don’t even know which one makes me angrier. The fact that they think Daemon did anything at all for LOVE or the fact that they think Aegon did all that for fucking FAME.

Like how do you misunderstand two characters so fucking much??? This is actually crazy.

If you have ANY reading comprehension you would understand that the one and only reason why Aegon became a more responsible king and person, and actually started fighting this war, is because his six year old son was brutally murdered and now he is afraid that something might happen to his mother, his sister wife, his brothers and his remaining children. Like you don’t need to be a genius to understand that he did that for FAMILY, for LOVE. That was his main motivation. He never wanted power, responsibility or fame, he was fighting to protect his family.

Daemon on the other hand… like, I can understand why it can be a little hard to understand him, but BFFR. He did not orchestrate B&C for “love”. I bet he didn’t even like Lucerys that much, preferring his more valyrian looking sons with Rhaenyra over the dark haired bastards. He just wanted an excuse to kill a child with no consequences. When he killed Vaemond, he didn’t do it for “love”. He was enjoying it, with all those “say it…” and “he can keep his tongue.” that he was throwing around. He QUITE LITERALLY did it for fun.

“Rhaenyra did try having kids with Laenor, but it didn’t work. That’s why she had bastards. What was she supposed to do, rape him?”

Babe. She should have not married him in the fist place.

I’m sorry, did you watch the show with your eyes closed? Rhaenyra marries Laenor because she believes that they can both fuck whomever they want in this relationship. She tells him they’ll both be free to dine as they please! The only thing she cares about is her own pleasure and freedom, not her duty! And I’m supposed to root for her?

i'm sorry, but the smallfolk & most of the houses didn't give a fuck about who sits on the throne.

"It's always the innocents who suffer when you high lords play your game of thrones."

the lords play their game of throne. the people suffer.

you happen to be in KL? swear to aegon or die. you're at dragonstone? swear to rhaenyra or die. daemon's "join us or your house burns" line sums it up perfectly. people didn't declare for the side that "they truly believed in", they either had a deal (like a marriage pact) or were threatened.

the only people who DO care about who's on the throne are:

But this is GoT right? Didn’t you know that civilians don’t count?

the civilians were happy to sacrifice their lives for rhaenys gurlboss moment ;)

Because Alicent asked Viserys to let Rhaenyra chose her own husband and let her have a choice after everything she endured and after Rhaenyra turned down all her attempts to rekindle their friendship…

And people say she was jealous and spiteful towards her. She literally pushed Viserys to give her the freedom no woman had at the time.

Always hated the way according to TB I'm supposed, as a woman, to root for Rhaenyra "Mary Sue" Targaryen because she's a Valyrian woman and can't do no wrong. Otherwise I'm framed as a misogynist, an enabler, a rape apologist, every name in the book. As if this isn't the same girl who coerced her bodyguard because her erectile disfunction uncle didn't wanna bang her after leaving her in a brothel, naked and on plain sight for any kind of perverted brute. As if this isn't the same girl who weaponized both her and her best friend's trauma to twist a truth about something she very willingly did that could've had her disowned if her father was anyone else other than the weak ass neglectful rapist pedo father she had instead.

This is the same girl who ignored and mistreated Alicent when all she did was convince Viserys to allow her privileges she never had, like choosing a husband. Like it or not, it was Alicent the one who gave gave and gave, and Rhaenyra the one who took took and took and even MOCKED, time and time again. The same girl who acted like a victim when the girl she called her literal best friend (only when it benefitted her) was getting maritally R*PED in the next room by her crusty ass father. She never tried connecting with her siblings because they were Alicent's children. Not because their minds were poisoned, not because they were apparently bitter towards her. Because they weren't her mother's children. Same as Viserys. Guess the apple doesn't fall too far from the tree.

I'm supposed to root for a woman who doesn't do one single thing for the claim she feels so entitled to (who was purely based on Viserys' grief and guilt for Aemma)? I'm supposed to root for a woman who brings back to the line of succession the same man everyone wanted far from the line of succession? I'm supposed to root for the woman who wants to be the exception, not give possibilities to other women like an ACTUAL feminist does? She usurps her stepdaughters' claims in favor of her obviously bastard children, and no, betrothing the fpur of them isn't the same. If they die, the girls' claim dies with them, and guess what, exactly that happened.

No, I will not root for the woman who wanted a teenager's head because she was black and because she couldn't cope with the fact that "hEr pRiNcE" didn't love her, only what her title could offer. Or the woman who put a price on a 6yo's and a 2yo's head simply because they were her brother's children, thereby proving what Criston said about what was needed for Jace to raise to power after his mother. She even denied the request of multiple older daughters/sisters who rightfully wanted to lead their houses, with the excuse that the relam would be far too 'imbalanced'. Girl, are you that dense? There's the smallfolk getting eaten and burned and taxes by your dragon and your entire family fighting wars and dying left and right and you think two women ruling their houses will destabilize the realm?

Rhaenyra is many things, but feminist is not among them, no matter how much you cry and whine about it. Yes, I'm aware that no woman in asoiaf or f&b can be described as feminist. But the convinction (and delusion) that Rhaenyra is, without a shadow of doubt, is mindblowing. She's arguably worse than any of said women combined.

No, I don't feel represented or uplifted by a tyrant, classist, racist, hypocritical, spoiled kinslayer with god complex because she's albino and has a pet dragon as spoiled and as useless as her. Sorry not sorry.

I AM SO NOT OVER THE HOTD SEASON 2 TRAILER

they look so miserable omg, poor Alicent, poor Helaena (those grief funeral dresses ate tho)

OH NO I AM NOT READY WHAT DOES THIS MEAN, IS IT B&C NO NO NO NO I AM NOT FUCKING READY

Aegon looks fucking devastated. This has to be him after B&C. I will be supporting and defending any crime this man commits to avenge the death of his son and heir, prince Jaehaerys.

Team black stans don’t even try interacting with this, go to your trailer and enjoy the show from your own point of view, hope y’all have a great time and enjoy your own trailer as much as i enjoyed mine.

Astarion: *gets kidnapped days before Cazador was going to use him in ritual sacrifice*

Cazador, through tears: I will never financially recover from this

when you start your 10th playthrough and your ass is down, down, down by the river yet again

All six tarot cards collected! 🌿 I decided to use white accents on elements that have an important symbolic role in each character's stories. My favorite picture out of the six is probably Karlach's card. And what do you think? Which card do you like best?

Custom Astarion reaction badges - Part 2 / ? ______________

Today's batch is sponsored by all the reblogs & comments under the previous part, I am absolutely floored with the response. I read every single one, including the tags, and picked a few I liked.

It was something created on a whim, I thought long and hard if I should even post it, so thank you all the more for accepting my brainrot.

If you have more ideas and/or suggestions for the next batch - for Astarion or anyone else - let me know!
