Characters Who Suffer The Most Tragic Fates Not Because They Were Destined To Die But Because They Were

characters who suffer the most tragic fates not because they were destined to die but because they were doomed to survive

It was Aerys' fault. Dragonestone was the safest place for them. It was not him who brought them to kingslanding.

There is no one person at fault. To say it is Aerys’s fault alone is just as wrong as saying it is only Rhaegar’s, Tywin’s, or Gregor’s. The tragedy of Elia and her children may have been avoided if any one of these men had acted differently. Had Rhaegar acted differently he may have been able to prevent his family from being brought to King’s Landing. If Tywin hadn’t ordered the murders, they almost certainly wouldn’t have happened. Had Gregor and Amory not so being gleefully willing to kill an innocent woman and her small children, they may have been able to survive. Aerys created the situation; Tywin, Gregor, and Amory killed them; and Rhaegar failed to be there for them. Doesn’t mean that there is no honor in Rhaegar wanting to save the realm from the Others. He’s a fascinating character. It’s more worth talking about what Rhaegar could’ve done to protect them because, of all 5 of these men, he’s the only one who would have. His relationship with them was dysfunctional but I do believe he did care for them. That sets him apart from the other culpable characters. He cared enough to let Elia in on his council and even tell her about the prophecy to some extent. If rumors are to be believed, he cared enough to try to get rid of Aerys. He still could have acted with more caution to ensure the safety of his family. If he could hide Lyanna in the tower of joy, he could’ve hidden Elia and the kids. Being on Dragonstone is not hidden when you are married to the prince of Dragonstone.

Actresses who should play Targaryens:

LADY GAGA and I am so serious about her as Shiera

TILDA SWINTON: Elaena, anyone? Or actually even Visenya. I know everyone loves making gifs with that one woman from Vikings but Visenya is said to be austere. Elaena is a great choice too because I think Tilda really could embody “more beautiful at 70 than at 17”

Mia Goth: she’s got that otherworldly look. Could be Daella or Deana the Defiant

Hunter Schaefer: she has a very striking facial structure and with her smile that’s a bit angled up to one side, I think she’d be a great Alyssa

Gemma Ward: EXTREMELY ethereal. I’d pick her for Daenys, Rhaenys the conquerer, Naerys, or even Dany

Julia Garner: perhaps Rhaena the black bride or Deena the defiant?

Abbey Lee Kershaw: perhaps Saera as an adult? She has such striking features and a real intensity to her

Bella Heathcote: Rhaena daughter of Aegon III, perhaps? Could also do Naerys or Dany

Annoying people: “I have nothing against [female character], in fact, I like her! I just hate it when people think she’s important 🤗 It’s okay to like minor characters! 🤗 You can be a fan of a minor character without pretending they matter like my faves do!🤗”

And these are werewolf movies like come on

Revisiting Ginger Snaps because I’m making a Ginger costume and actually Katherine Isabelle and Emily Perkins at this age are the perfect Sansa and Arya fancasts to me. Katherine has the light auburn hair and blue eyes and Emily has the dark hair, long face, and grey eyes
