Martell Week: Day 02 - Favourite quote

A Feast for Crows - The Queenmaker // A Dance with Dragons - The Watcher

I cannot take seriously any self proclaimed Targ stan who’s “horrified” at the mom and son Alyssa x Daemon scene but wholeheartedly and with their whole chest defend - niece x uncle, nephew x uncle, sister x brother, aunt x niece usually with an absurdly repulsive age gap added into the equation 🙃

Also we already saw weirdo psychosexual subtext in canon - in the weird sexual ownership Jaehaerys felt over Saera and the Alysanne’s mommy knows best dynamic with Baelon. Whatever Maegor & Visenya had going on, like why are we shocked here.

This is extremely on point for House Targaryen and yall are fake freaks.

bla bla bla Aegon II is not the rightful heir!

bla bla bla Rhaenyra is not the rightful heir!

blablabla MY favorite fantasy mass murderers are actually the good guys!

Do you know who was not the rightful heir to shit? Who was very much not "the good guy"?

Aegon The Conqueror. The very reason why there is even all those debates through the series history, between this or that Targaryen, the reason why there is an iron throne in the first place, and for all the wars for it

In a monarchy, the truth of myths regarding divine rights of the royal and the noblemen is that those are nothing but justifications for the upholding of feudalism and it's social order. The only crime one can commit in a war of conquest or succession is losing it. "The rightful monarch" is the one who wins, because outside of that, there is no such thing.

History is told by the winners. Might makes right.

"Power resides where men believe it resides. It is a trick, a shadow on the wall."

Have your favorites, have fun watching, it's entertainment after all. Root for whoever you want, for whatever reason you fancy. But do not fool yourself. They do not actually have the right to shit and you know it, you are not morally above anyone for rooting for this or that character and you know it.
