Hotd Rhaenyra - Blog Posts

I feel like this season of House of The Dragon is going to be utterly ruthless in it's approach.

As always, the intricacies never fail to take my breath away...

Last season, the opening showed blood on rock... rock that does not stain. But this time, we see blood tainting canvas, likely to leave deep gashes that won't be washed over, won't signify beginning anew.

This is further seen in how the last shot we saw of Rhaenyra was with her back facing the fire and darkness in her eyes. Yet, here we see in in the same room with a map of the seven kingdoms... alit with fire, demanding Aemond's life and walking out without a word.

Fire in all it's duality is clearly seen when alicent lights a candle for Viserys parallel to Luke's pyre being burned and finally as she wished to quell her guilt, lighting a candle for Luke, only for it to cut to Rhaenyra being obscured by flames, signifying that this stain isn't going to be washed off, it's not a rope that's frayed, but one that's cut.

And finally, Helena saying beware of the rats but not knowing who it is... Alys, who betrays information or her, who betrays herself.

In all its glory, there are four fronts that are going to impact the game moving forward:

Alicent's desire for victory, and whether she sees it in sleeping with Crison Cole, or allowing her soul absolvement from guilt by making peace between her and the blacks (Rhaenyra).

Otto's thrist for violence and who he deems (un)worthy enough to sacrifice.

Rhaenyra's vengeance, and which wing will forever be grounded next.

And Daemon's venerence towards Rhaenyra and who he's willing to betray for it.

Happy pride my fellow fruity friends🏳️‍🌈🧡💛🤍💗❤️

(Waiting for the day I’ll have my asexual representations in fantasy shows, wìmeanwhile ill headcanon Aemond as demisexual)

Also shoutout to Bi king Daemon, we’ve been robbed.

I am convinced that if rhaenyra was sent back in time before the dance the dragons, she would give up the throne and run away with her family. yes, she could fight, regain control of the keep, and all that. but knowing that almost all of her family is killed in that war? almost all of her children? that her last remaining children are left traumatized and defenseless without a mother? no, she wouldn't even risk it again. she would give up the crown to whoever wants it and run. protecting her children and their lives. wanting to live a long life with them all. the throne wouldn't be worth losing them all over again.

no body, no crime

au where rhaenyra and alicent plot to kill Otto and encapicate viserys

it would start right before aegon ii was born.

they would reconcile and begin to find comfort in one another again. which leads to alicent confessing to rhaenyra how her relationship with viserys started.

"I never wanted this Rhaenyra! My father asked me to keep Viserys company, and that's all I did. I was hoping, praying to the Gods that he would choose someone else. That he would not see me as anything else than his daughter's friend. But then he asked me if you knew of our meetings, when I said no, he asked me to keep it that way. That's when I knew that I had lost my chance to run. I am so sorry, Rhaenyra, I didn't know what to do."

Rhaenyra's face changes after Alicent's confession.

"You did nothing wrong, Alicent. Your father and my father used you. I should've been there for you. I should've protected you. I should've known that you were in trouble, but I didn't, I am sorry for not being there. We promised each other that we wouldn't let us fall into these types of marriages, that we would do anything in our power to protect each other."

Alicent didn't understand at first, but then she remembered. The promise they made to each other at 13. If they were forced to marry someone who hurt them, the other would do ANYTHING they can to save them. ANYTHING.

"Rhaenyra, surely you don't mean-" Alicent begins but is cut off by Rhaenyra.

"Look me in the eyes, Alicent, and tell me my father does not hurt you. This marriage does not kill you slowly day by day. Tell me that you are truly content and happy in this marriage. Tell me the truth."

Alicent tries to tell her that she is content. That things could be worse, but things are worse. She is forced to lie with a man old enough to be her father, forced by her father to do so. To carry his children when she was could still be considered a child.

"I can help you, Alicent. I could find a way to make this end. It would he hard of course but I can make sure that you are safe again. I swear it." Rhaenyra tells her after seeing it on her face, processing this information.

"Give me the power to do so, and I will do it. Both of them will suffer for what they have done to you. I know it will take some time, that it won't be easy but I will get it done. Just tell me this is what you want Alicent."

Alicent goes over everything in her head and tries to think of how to tell Rhaenyra no. That this isn't something that has to happen, that Alicent can survive this. But Alicent doesn't want to survive through life. She wants to live. Live happily with her children and she knows that won't happen with Viserys and her father in the picture. She won't let herself be used anymore.

"Help me, Rhaenyra, I don't think I could handle this life for all my life."

Rhaenyra embraces Alicent right when those words leave her mouth. Rhaenyra knows this will take a while to plan but she knows that she won't give up until her Alicent is free.

"Rhaenyra, I think my water just broke"

Rhaenyra was in the room during Alicent's labors the whole day. When it was announced to be a boy, they both knew that Otto would become a bigger problem than before. So they decided after Aegon ii passed his 5th moon that Otto would have to be gone.

Otto was dead before he was able to see Aegon ii reach his first nameday.

Nobody questioned his death. He was on his way to visit family in Oldtown but was lost at sea when the ship was hit by an abrupt change of weather. There was no witnesses that could explain what happened.

Viserys was a harder one to manage. Someone that just can't simply disappear, not when there is too much to lose for both of them if they don't plan ahead.

So they played the part of dutiful wife. Alicent had 2 more children. Rhaenyra made sure to hold her close whenever she found out. To make it clear that her children were innocent, they didn't cause this pain. Viserys did.

Rhaenyra played the part of dutiful heir. She focused on her lessons, small council meeting, gaining as many allies as possible. Reaching out to Rhaenys for advice on certain aspects of court and the realm.

Rhaenyra rebuilt the alliance and bond between house targaryen and house velaryen. Not Viserys

She delayed marriage as long as possible with the help of Alicent. But ultimately decided to marry Ser Harwin Strong, son of the Hand of the King

Viserys started becoming seriously ill during Rhaenyra's first pregnancy. Slowly losing the ability to truly run the realm. Rhaenyra began taking control of the small council with the help of Alicent and the Hand during the beginning of his illness.

Viserys remained bedridden or 5 years before his untimely death.

Rhaenyra was crowned queen shortly after. Alicent stayed at the Red Keep raising her children, living the life she's always wanted.

Rhaenyra and Alicent never spoke a word of their promise afterwards.

holy shit this was so much longer than I thought it was going to be.

I might make this into a full-on fic with a more in-depth happy ending.

please give me your thoughts lol

i'm excited for the war crimes

one of the things I love about HOTD is how everyone (except heleana) sucks. they are all such shitty people and I love that about them. except aegon ii, he's gross, I don't like him. (canon wise) anyway, I am very excited to see rhaenyra just start going bat shit crazy. alicent had every right to lose it during the driftmark seen so now that rhaenyra not only lost her thrown but TWO of her children at the hands of the greens, shit is about to go downnnn. I hope we see that level of just uncontrollable rage from her. she deserves to just lose it completely when it comes to bloodshed.

also in the books there is a scene where rhaenyra talks to alicent, while alicent is in the dungeons, where alicent convince rhaenyra to not kill her sons and that they can find peace. rhaenyra responds by saying that the greens lost that chance when they killed her sons and stole her throne. in the show, this scene is going to be amazing. AMAZING! especially with the new backstory alicent and rhaenyra have in it.

those are my thoughts, enjoy!

I love alicent because of this! she knew what she wanted was not okay, that she was letting her anger and her child's pain control her. she knew that lucerys was just a child and didn't deserve to lose an eye, just like aemond did not deserve to lose an eye. I hate viserys, he should've brought justice to aemond in some way and not made alicent feel crazy for being angry about her child being hurt

alicent regretted her actions after she charged at luke, she apologized to viserys after he ignored her pleas to show some concern after aemond lost an eye, and she rejected larys’ offer to take an eye from luke….honestly she’s a saint because that couldn’t be me.

Update

I am very disappointed

Just a little heads up of what my blog will look like in the next few days
