AEGON & HELAENA+ Helaena Not Looking Away From Aegon For A Second During His Coronation Until He's Crowned

AEGON & HELAENA + Helaena not looking away from Aegon for a second during his coronation until he's crowned King. (insp.)

the fact that Alicent cares about viserys' disgusting ass more than her own children is really a crazy change, especially after THIS night.

i mean, the new canon tells us that the reason Alicent wanted to seize the throne was not out of fear for the lives of her children, but because VISERYS supposedly wanted it that way. and when it turned out that this was not the case, she easily turned her back on them all and almost was ready to bring Aegon's head to Rhaenyra on a platter.

((look, Otto didn't love his grandchildren, but he would NEVER do that to them, not even to Aegon, whom he can barely stand.))

viserys absolutely dgaf about THEIR - his and Alicent's - family. he didn't care about her feelings, her dignity, her desires. he called her by a wrong name, took away her girlhood, in order to have sons whom he did not love. he never gave her anything in return, only took away. but she shows more respect and LOVE for his ghost than for her own living sons, who are ready to give their all for the sake of a grain of such an attitude towards themselves.

now it looks as if she used her children while they were convenient for her: Aegon, being burned, can no longer guarantee her power - puts him under the enemy's sword, Aemond, who has been her support for years, began to cause problems - does not even remember him. only Helaena is left, and I'm inclined to believe that if she "shows her teeth" too, all of Alicent's tenderness towards her will fade. (daeron, RUUUN-). she hardly perceives them as persons, but this is a separate conversation.

"she wanted to torture one of my sons after her bastards took away his eye with impunity and will want to cut off the head of another my son for the throne, but she will be a good queen with whom I will want to escape into the forest" boys, that was THE moment when you should have run away from here.

she condemns them for the fear and hatred that she has nurtured in them for years. she's really terrible at this show.

tbh, I don't see any redemption for her. but also I don't hope that in this show she will face real consequences, and not senseless humiliation bc... just watch s2.

it’s the way people hate criston for calling rhaenyra a “cunt” once (not good, but this man’s situation was unique and he otherwise respects women from what we have seen), and simultaneously think daemon is a feminist (he repeatedly called rhea “a bronze bitch”, murdered her in cold blood, groomed his niece, choked his pregnant niece, and fucked her immediately after the death of his second wife). criston’s loyalty and dedication to alicent has been all but unwavering both seasons, and daemon has spent the entirety of season two plotting against his wife (aka wife number three, aka the niece he groomed), and it took him, what, eight episodes to stand by her again? people really hate criston just because he was hurt about being used and his position being put in jeopardy (he said no. it doesn’t matter if we know that rhaenyra would ever tell anyone that they’ve slept together, he doesn’t know that). he has been loyal to alicent, loyal to her children (does daemon even remember his daughters’ names), loyal to their cause, while daemon seized the opportunity for power the first chance he got like a hungry dog. truly pathetic.

Aegon and his Sunfyre:

☀️(My other collages)☀️

"The king changed the color of the dragon on his banners from red to gold, to celebrate the brilliant golden scales of his dragon, Sunfyre"

What a terribly dull ending this is.

I decided to summarize all the statements about Aegon once again, because I began to get tired of TB fans who come to my blog to make a scandal.

"Aegon is a rapist."

In the show - yes, he raped Dyana (there were no other confirmed cases). In the book, he groped the maids, but he wasn't a rapist.

"Aegon is a pedophile."

Not in the show, and in the book, uh, not either. The story about a twelve-year-old girl was told by Mushroom, whom we don't consider as a reliable source.

"Aegon enjoys watching his bastards kill each other."

In the show, these are rumors, and this is told by a man loyal to Rhaenyra, who wants to convince his brother to join her. No evidence. In the book, these were also Mushroom's rumors, as well as stories about Aegon having bastards in general.

"Aegon rapes Helaena."

No, the actors confirmed that they had only formal sex for the sake of conceiving children, so he didn't touch her anymore, and "marital rape" isn't considered as a real rape in this blog - these are just two people who voluntarily fulfill their duty, and both of them - a man and a woman - are victims of a forced marriage.
