Guise… if I’m reading correctly, he is saying either “who wants it?” or “who’s was it?”

He is probably referring to something he signed. My mind is filling in all sorts of other fun ideas!

His eye contact game? Unmatched

Damn, I cheered but apparently they couldn’t hear me from the other side of the continent 🙁

ewan: “if you are team green, you are team underdog”

tom: “and who doesn’t love to support an underdog?”

ewan: “…nobody as it turns out”

💀 lmao

"I don't understand why Alicent didn't accept Rhaenyra's apology in ep6 but did in ep8

The apology in ep6 felt way more sincere to me and happened before Rhaenyra had done anything that bad. I mean the worst thing she had done at that point to Alicent was getting her father fired (which Alicent was more than prepared to forgive her for as we see at the beginning of ep5) and sleep with Cole (Alicent doesn't even know that Rhaenyra lied to her about going to a brothel with Daemon). But then in ep7 Rhaenyra's son takes out Aemond'e eye and Rhaenyra shows zero empathy and even asks him to be "sharply questioned" while he's sitting there bleeding from a hole in his eyes. She insults Alicent. She then lets Alicent believed she murdered Laenor to strike fear in her and marries a man who hates her father and is known to be dangerous. Then in ep8 her husband brutally murders Vaemond (who is also supposed to be part of his family) without a trial for saying the exact same thing that Alicent, Aemond and Aegon have said out loud. Rhaenyra's "apology" in ep8 doesn't contain any mention of Aemond (does she even know he's her brother?) or reassurance that she will keep Alicent's children safe (whereas in ep6 she proposed a marriage between Helaena and Jace, which I know can be seen as her taking Helaena hostage but it can be also be seen as a genuine effort to build a relationship between the families). Is it me or is this really stupid? Or maybe I'm missing something?"

My answer is, likely out if desperation. The plan to have Luke disinherited due to his bastardy ended up failing. That was meant to be the catalyst for keeping Rhaenyra off the throne.

It seems the original plan in episode 6 (iirc) was to sway Viserys into seeing reason and replacing Rhaenyra as heir. That didn’t work, either.

Now, Viserys is dying, the only man willing to say the truth in open court is dead, the walls are closing in and Alicent submits and admits defeat.

Then Viserys mumbles some incoherent stuff about Aegon and prophecy, which Alicent thinks he is referring to a prophecy he thought he had about having a son that would wear the conquerer’s crown.

Now she thinks she has the official green light from the king to do what she has wanted to do this whole time and allow Viserys eldest son to inherit. A lot of people don’t realize that it’s Rhaenyra that is taking Aegon’s birthright.

A birthright is something that is rightfully yours, just because you were born. Being born male, Aegon rightfully should be heir. Rhaenyra’s claim is “daddy said so”, not a birthright. She was named heir, not born heir like Aegon was assumed to be.

The master of laws was on board with Aegon being crowned king. The precedent had been set. It was that very precedent that allowed Viserys to rule to begin with. Daughters aren’t supposed to inherit before sons in this system. It’s bonkers chauvinistic, but it’s fantasy. No real people are being hurt.

TLDR: Alicent thought she lost the battle to get Rhaenyra’s claim renounced in episode 8, so she submitted and was going the “pray for mercy” route Otto suggested.

Thank you for the ask! Always happy to throw my 2 cents in 😂

I know what I’m doing today!

It's starting! I'm back! AHHHH.

Housekeeping - Yes, it’s been over a year since I’ve updated this story, and I apologise. Oh my what has happened in that year, lifes continued on around me even if I wasn’t ready for it. Anyways, I now find myself finally back, and finally rewriting this story, the story I love genuinely so much. (This is my eleventh time rewriting this, if you don’t believe me I have the google doc receipts <3) 

What’s Different? - My writing style has evolved heavily over this past year. I’ve been writing a lot on my own, like a few actual books I hope to get in the world one day, and I’ve done a fair bit of writing for school. (I’m in a creative writing program now, thank you for all the support you’ve all shown me since I started writing this in December of 2022, y’all are a big part of why I decided to chase my dreams.) With that all said this is still fanfiction, and I’ve had to remind myself that it doesn’t have to be perfect, it can just be fun. So while you enjoy my new writing style, and eventually new bits and pieces of this world, and new characters, please remember that while this might be slightly better than the last go at it, it’s still fanfiction. Also the chapters are shorter <3 and it’s got a dual POV sort of thing … Slightly, but not much else has changed! (I’m probably lying!) 

Also - I am Canadian, we have different ways of spelling things that the USA and possibly other places, please don’t get on my ass because I use a “S” instead of a “Z”, and if I add a “U” somewhere, I promise it’s not the end of the world. 

I plan to update as I go, there will be about 30 to 40 chapter so buckle up!

ENJOY! I KNOW I DID! AND I’M SORRY FOR GATEKEEPING THIS FOR SO LONG!!! <3

All five first chapters have been posted to Wattpad and AO3, you can find them there, the first chapter will be posted on here tonight, and then I'll post maybe one chapter every few days on here, but both Wattpad and AO3 will be updated the moment I finish a chapter. Happy reading!

WE NEED THIS LOOK!

Aegon II Targaryen was considered handsome, though his eyes had a sullen look and his mouth was pouty. Like his father he had a mustache. with dark purple eyes which looked almost black, and silver hair. He was lean of face and body. Overall, he did not look like a warrior. He wore the iron-and-ruby crown of Aegon I Targaryen and carried Blackfyre, his namesake’s Valyrian steel sword.

Ok, so I’m going to need TGC to grow a twirly mustache now

Thank you for this 💜

I love it so much when he smiles with teeth, you can't even imagine.

[pterodactylterrace]

He lurks amongst us

New fear unlocked

I once posted (on my previous blog) that if bro ever shows up in his gray sweatpants, the silly little fangirl in me would assume he knows about all the modern Aemond fanfiction we read and write here.

[pterodactylterrace]

Come on fishnet body suit!

I LOVE how his outfits get bolder everytime

[pterodactylterrace]

Great minds think alike 🤣🤣🤣

[pterodactylterrace]

They are both saving up their hits. Once they think they have enough saved up, they make the square and duke it out for dominance.

There are a limited number of hits, so you want to accumulate as many as possible, but you also don’t want your opponent to get too many. Strategy is key!

Alicent: I told my kids, Aegon and Aemond, that they were allowed to hit each other once per day, so they should really think it through and not waste it. Now they're calmly discussing when might be the best time to hit each other, BUT, the actual hitting has stopped. I'm a genius.

@pterodactylterrace your version fits well too..Thank you for your input 😘

#I’M HELPING!

[pterodactylterrace]

Now I’m going to imagine a literal dragon whenever I read a book!Aegon fic.

In my vision he is gold like Sunfyre, and still wearing his crown.

Me wanting to write an Aegon fic: ok so which one of you guys should I choose?

Book!Aegon: of course it should be me!

Show!Aegon: c-can you write about me this tim-

Book!Aegon: *punch him in the face* SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU FUCKING CUNT!!!!

Book!Aegon: *clear his throat* I mean, love why would you even ask? The answer is obvious. Why would you even think about writing for someone who's undeserving while you can write for your future king? I can give you the world.

Show!Aegon: *start crying while holding his bloody nose* mommy please 🥺....

Book!Aegon: *bombastic side eye* Don't look at her like that you greasy dumb son of a bitch.

Show!Aegon: 🥺🥺🥺

Me:....

Me: I need more time to think about it...

“Girl, what is that biatch saying? Lemme hear!”

[pterodactylterrace]

Huh, suddenly I don’t care as much if I’m using the word “cock” too much. I just realized it could be so much weirder.

this is the single worst way i've ever read to describe an erection, frank herbert

ALL HAIL GLYTCHELL

whats a glytchell.

Hey nonnie,

We are adopting Glytchell as the duo name for Ewan and TGC, much like how D’cooke is the combination of Emma D’arcy and Olivia Cooke’s names 😘
