“In a show full of morally compromised grey characters, I wanted to present a character who at this time in his life was just completely black. His appearance lends to that, so I'd thought I'd lean into it.”
— Ewan Mitchell.
"Why should I care about his feelings, when nobody cares about mine?"
- this line by sansa stark is more feminist than any of the tripe hotd has tried putting forward lmao
“helaena does not ride, she has no taste for it”
incorrect, wrong
she was riding dreamfyre since age eleven and only stopped due to her depression and grief. dreamfyre awoke, broke her chains, and roared so loudly that the entire dragonpit shook when she sensed that helaena jumped to her death. they LOVED each other﹠ this show is insane for ignoring their bond.

It kind of make senses now why B&C was so tame. B&C reflects extremely poorly on Daemon & Rhaenyra by extension so they tried to diminish the atrocity of it all and make it as ambiguous as possible so they could move past it in the finale. Daemon realizes “he messed up” and Rhaenyra is allowed to “bring him back into the fold” without it being such a “big deal” add in Alicent’s humiliation where she begs forgiveness without mentioning her dead grandson and betraying even her brother and “kind” youngest unseen child and it all makes sense.
For contrast Aemond’s atrocious action against Lucerys isn’t explored beyond “Aemond regretting it” but then is very much built on by the narrative as he goes on to attempt to kill his brother, physically assault his sister, diminish his mother, and burn a village of innocents. Helaena Targaryen who previously had very little understanding of her dragon dreams blatantly tells her brother without remorse how he will die and then appears to the man who had her son and daughter brutalized (Daemon)in a vision to assist him.

SPOILERS-HOTD LEAKS
Aemond being physically aggressive towards his sister and Haelena telling him that he’s going to die and that basically no one will care are the most OOC things I can imagine for both characters. That being the case, I don’t even know why Aemond still wants to fight, since he knows that no one supports him and I can’t find a single reason why he should go to Harrenhall at this point. He should go to Essos and spend the rest of his days enjoying life and not giving a shit about anything
LEAKS!!!!! BEWARE!!!!!! Answer under the cut<3
THE MOST OOC SHIT THIS SHOW HAS GIVEN US!!!!!!!! I’ll die on this hill when I say Aemond would NEVER get physical with his loved ones!!
Ryan is telling me that I have to believe Aemond is nicer to a sex worker rather than HIS OWN MOTHER AND SISTER!!????????????
Oh I deeply need him to leave EVERYONE behind and leave because no one gives a single flying fuck about him so why should he even TRY to fight for them? He should leave for Essos and have good sex with essosi wine
