My Favourite Respectful Dynamic In HotD?

My favourite respectful dynamic in HotD?

Daemon and Harwin.

They both loved the same woman, but they did it ‘respectfully’. In this essay I will…

Harwin saw who Rhaenyra was with, out in Kingslanding, and it was enough for him to know she was alright, taken care of. Neither was he upset, simply amused at their shenanigans.

Immediately after, they nodded at each other in acknowledgment

The way Daemon asked to dance with Rhaenyra at the wedding was respectful

Harwin responded just as respectfully, even if he didn’t like it

How Daemon talked about Harwin with Rhaenyra on the beach. There’s no other way to put it, other than RESPECT. “I understand he was quite devoted to you”. “At least I am allowed to mourn my losses”. I will forever love Daemon just for these words.

Just look at it, it's almost tender 🥺

“can i sit in your lap?”

“mhm  ..  sure you will.”

“that’s all you’ve got?”

“i’ll do what i want, thank you very much.”

“you’re cute when you think i’m listening to you.”

“or what?”

“you’re not the boss of me.”

“but . . but . .”

“no.”
