The Kings Foot

Both Vhaegar and Verminthor are over hundred years at this point.

Its worth noting HER reaction. She's not surprised at him. And in fact she even understands that in that moment he's more hurt than she is (He realized he never had Viserys' trust) and he's lashing out the only way he knows how. She also understands that the only way to control him is to not escalate. Make no mistake she knows what he is. She wasnt joking at her wedding when she told him to grab his sword, kill her guards and kidnap her.

Could also just be inbreeding. Aren't all current dragons descended from just the 3 Aegon and his sisters had ?

Errick took Viserys' golden crown from his body. We last see Alicent placing it on the wrapped body. Aegon is wearing the Conqueror's crown (ie Aegon the First) which is black with a ruby in the centre.

Oh hardly. Never under estimate the attractiveness of violent men. Take a look at the Joker in Suicide Squad . yup.

Team Black are unfortunately led by the two who truly believe Targyreons are superior (Rhaenyra and Daemon) "We do what we want" "Targeryons are closer to the Gods" While Team Green is led by a guy plotting to take the throne for years. The one mistake Otto made. He should have simply stayed quiet. But that let Rhaenyra know that at least 3 major Lords were still up for grabs.

He'd have started a bidding war trying to get gifts and concessions. Unfortunately the Greens have more to offer and he knows it.

As an aside. In the title sequence, Aemond's sigil is a blue jewel which makes it easier to identify him and his siblings.

And ironically adds to his connection to Daemon , another character who never denies the things he's accused of.

I see it as the opposite. Like an animal shedding a burden it cant afford in combat.

I got mixed thoughts on that. yeah it looks cool but it also looks very Japanese anime.

Im reminded of what the Hound said to Sansa way back in GOT, "Your father was a killer, your brother is a killer, your husband will be a killer and your sons will be killers." Rhaenyra knows exactly who she married. A killer she has mostly under her control.

A lot of people are embarrassed they liked him early on so they're treating him like he's their ex boyfriend.

Viserys is a very sentimental person as this entire season has shown. He gave his reason in that big bonfire scene where he talked to Alicent. he killed Aemma in his quest for a male heir and thought her was righting that wrong by naming Rhaenyra Heir Then he doubled down when R confronted him about her only being named heir to spite Daemon. As far as Viserys is concerned this has nothing to do with the realm or legal rights. This is about him keeping his word to his daughter. This is the reason why he is a bad and weak king. He lets his personal honour get in the way of statecraft.

Think youve misread the conversation. Stardancer Supreme was saying its badly written because they dont want a woman on the throne. That it makes them all incels. Whereas as you seem to agree, in real life Rhaenyra would always have been supplanted by a younger brother. As for the French situation , while yes that was the real reason, the fact remains they were willing to diminish all women in order to prevent Edward from taking the throne.
