Careful mothers. Soon you too will be called a toxic boymom for not needlessly sacrificing the sons you forced to fight a war against their wills for a friend from 20 years ago who doesn't give a flying fuck about actually helping you.

this is so much more compelling than whatever boymomism people want alicent to do

The boymism being hey alicent pls don't sacrifice the sons you sent to war

@edensvale The moral scale of this fucking show is based on how nice you are to Rhaenyra
English
There's nothing compelling about a stale ass relationship that wasn't changed in any meaningless way even after decades of events and tragedies

@halimertugrul I agree, but Rhaenicent Itself is Rhaenyra centered, their dynamic goes one way
English
@edensvale I think we’ve discussed this before I don’t think it is either team-centered. It is Rhaenicent-centered.

in what world has hotd ever been “team green centered” — considering it’s always rhaenyra who’s backed by daddy’s preference, aegon’s prophecy, the white hart and literally every single advantage you could possibly think of? isn’t the show also dragging aegon 2 thru the mud 24/7?

The show on one hand wants to portray women like Alicent as being smarter and wiser than the men around them but at the same time so clueless they never understood what's going on 🫠

Olivia Cooke disse que a Alicent finalmente entende o jogo na 3ª temporada e não quer mais fazer parte dele!

When can we all come together and agree that this ‘feminist’ retelling of the dance is actually more misogynistic and harmful than the actual original story of the Dance? Because it is at this point.

Exactly, a friends to bitter rivals kinda story would've been so good and most sensical instead of the stale, boring and predictable rhaenicent we got

The early friendship was supposed to make the rivalry even stronger and more poignant

@halimertugrul They're inexcusably out of touch as writers if they think what they did was gonna make her more likeable, like people generally don't like when a character grovels to another even if they're the ultimate good
English
@edensvale I genuinely think they did it to make her more likeable which is worse than doing so to humiliate her
English
Everyone could see that coming, I doubt their purpose was to actually make her more likeable, they just like seeing her in humiliating positions
إسم@beIovederen
they had alicent do this for rhaenyra just for the general public to boo at even the mention of her name
English
@halimertugrul I hope so, his plot really is one of the few interesting ones that remain
English
@edensvale Oh for sure I mean he definitely wants Rhaenyra & Daemon dead but I think the freshest on his mind is betrayal by Aemond. Until he finds out about Alicent’s.
I think what’s driving him is proving everyone wrong and winning against all enemies which now includes Aemond.
English
I’m frequently shit on hotdog but I can’t believe when some of y’all just REFUSE to engage with the story (yes entire diff from canon). Aemond tried to kill Aegon. What do you think Aegon should feel? He wants to kill Aemond as revenge & remove him as claimant.

@edensvale This is just gonna make Aegon killing Rhaenyra and restoring himself as king seem more impressive considering he was fighting against his own team AND team black at the same time while heavily injured and with a dragon on its last legs. 😭
