SUGARMOMMY!WANDA || HEADCANONS
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
pairing: sugarmommy!wanda x sugarbaby!freader
summary: random head canons of reader being wanda’s spoiled sugarbaby.
warnings: wanda is a silverfox (yum), praise kink, mommy kink, softdom!wanda mostly, lap sitting, ass grabbing, mentions of slapping, light exhibition
a/n: these had been running in my head for too long and i’ve decided that i need her in a way that puts feminism behind 500 years.
you met her because you were waitressing in her favourite restaurant, with a degree in english literature you were bound to end up in a place like that.
she was incredibly kind from the start, greeting you with a big smile and a bigger tip.
divorced silverfox!!!! and always called you pet names when you came with her food!!!!!!!! and the “thank you, my darling” would leave you a blushing mess.
the situation started when she saw you getting fired in front of her because of a encounter between you and a costumer and when she saw the tears in your eyes she knew she had to do something.
you can’t say you weren’t surprised. but the offer was so tempting and she was looking so so fine in her tailored black suit and slacks. you blurted a yes immediately and embarrassed yourself. but she reassured you with a pet on your hair.
she’s beautiful. and she’s kind. and she takes such good care of you, it didn’t take long for you to start falling for her. and she lets you stay in her condo, making sure you’re treated like a princess.
a soft dom!!!!!!!! always calling you “princess”, “my love”, “darling” and “dear” only when she’s incredibly pissed at you misbehaving.
praise kink, always praising you for doing the littlest things. praising you when you’re eating her out so good or praising you for bringing her briefcase to her before she leaves for work.
everyone at work calls you “mrs. maximoff” but wanda never corrects them and you’re too shy to.
often you bring lunch to her office and she immediately leaves whatever she’s doing to have you settle in her lap. you two either eat together or she fucks you on top of her desk with the strap she keeps in her last drawer, whispering in your ear to keep quiet or else the ppl will hear you. and that makes you wetter around her strap.
the mommy kink goes crazy. you just have to pout and call her mommy and she’s ready to do anything for you, to the point you can physically see her lose control, her pupils dilating and her breathing heavy.
only when you misbehave severely, you can make her angry. she makes sure to immediately put you in your place tho, either by a slap to your face or by grabbing your ass so firmly she leaves a bruise.

"he was never unfaithful to robert, was he?" - jaime, acok
ha. ha ha ha. the irony of this line is incredible. what's so striking to me is how one dimensional the realm's understanding of eddard stark as an honourable man is - honour itself is an incredibly complicated and unattainable ideal in asoiaf and i think ned as the stereotypical emblem of it encompasses many of the reasons why. because whilst he absolutely does consider acting in a conventionally honourable way important, he always prioritises those he loves. he defended cat's actions as his own without a second thought when she arrested tyrion. his main priority in king's landing is to see his daughters safe, not to secure the succession. lyanna is the prime example: jon's existence is not the result of the lapse of honourable ned stark, it was honourable ned stark choosing his love for his sister over his duty to his king. that and his personal ethical belief that the political murder of a child is never morally acceptable.
no one in the realm has the insight into his personality we get in the first book. none of his children, vitally, understand that he would always prioritise their safety over any honourable scruples. all of the starklings question what their honourable father would think of their actions - killing in self-defence, marrying jeyne westerling, sleeping with ygritte to name a few examples - without recognising that ned's true first priority was always his family's safety.
in fact, he betrayed robert far more than he ever betrayed cat and he would have betrayed honour for his family's safety every time.

Sansa. A Golden Child.
It simply breaks my heart that Catelyn creates such a rift between her children. And I'm not even talking about Jon right now. I'm talking about Sansa and Arya.
Sansa has always been Catelyn's golden child, the future queen and mother of rulers of all of Westeros. She admires her daughter, and in the later chapters, when Sansa is married off to Tyrion, it's as if Catelyn feels like she's losing her. She speaks of her in her thoughts in a similar way to how she talks about Bran and Rickon, whom she believed were dead.
Also, remember how Ned protested when Catelyn mentioned that Sansa could become queen. "Sansa is only eleven, and Joffrey..." Yes, Sansa is still a child who needs family, love, and care, and certainly not Joffrey. But Catelyn is only concerned about the fact that Joffrey is the heir to the throne, and her daughter could become queen. Sansa is hardly a child to her, just an extension of herself; she is captivated by the idea that her grandchildren will rule the Kingdoms.
Catelyn's initial thoughts about Arya are simply that the girl needs to learn some manners, and that's it. Right after Catelyn's chapter comes Arya's, which is filled with resentment and jealousy towards her sister. Yes, I think Arya was jealous of Sansa. She didn't give up trying to connect with Sansa, engaging her in conversation, inviting her to ride horses. But the Septa did everything to turn Sansa into a proper lady, and complained to Catelyn, fully aware of the scolding Arya would later receive for it. "Nymeria loved her, even if no one else did." Come on, would a child loved by her mother indulge in such thoughts?
Catelyn wanted the best for her children, but as a mother of daughters, she seriously messed up, let's be honest.

Very funny to me how Stansas present her character as being so interesting and complex because of her vulnerabilities, while simultaneously ignoring those same vulnerabilities in other characters. Dany is sold as a bridal slave and lacks agency throughout AGOT and after. Her dragons are either too young/small to utilize effectively or locked away for the majority of the story. They aren't some all-powerful trump card that protects her from harm. Arya is captured as a prisoner of war, forced to watch countless people tortured and murdered, and then essentially enslaved in Harrenhal with no way to fight back. She has an entire arc of feeling powerless, of being a "mouse", during ACOK. She doesn't have "kung-fu" or the ability to magically fight her way out of every situation, she's a young child lacking physical strength with only the most basic sword training.
Sansa isn't the only female character, she isn't the only young character, she isn't the only character who suffered, and no one is obligated to prioritize her. I'm so tired of Dany and Arya being mischaracterized and having their stories erased to prop Sansa up. "Sansa has kept her dignity" In other words, let's praise her for having a level of security that Dany and Arya don't have access to. She hasn't ever been forced to make a hard decision which of course means that she's morally superior to them. They can't even admit to themselves that her lack of action is due to her own passivity. If it doesn't fit their delusion, they erase it from the story and expect the rest of us to play along. Ask one of them what they like about her character without bringing up her being the ultimate victim, and I genuinely don't believe they'd be able to give you an answer. They belittle other characters more than they talk about her and these takes just scream insecurity/jealousy at the content and development other characters have in their POVs.

Eh, I don't think it's really a problem to say that Sansa and Dany will probably have opposing political goals and might not be braiding each others hair. One of them wants to rule the 7 kingdoms, the other one will want the north to be independent. The idea that woman should just get along because they're woman and they've had similar live experiences is kinda reductive and it wouldn't be said about them if they were men. This is asoiaf, not a slumber party. People aren't gonna get along because some fans want them to.
i was joking earlier but i do disagree with a lot of this. i think saying that dany and sansa’s goals are ruling the seven kingdoms versus northern independence so they are definitely going to oppose each other is just missing the point. the reason daenerys is still in essos after five books is because her actual goal, the thing she wants to accomplish and the thing that motivates her, isn’t ruling westeros. what dany really wants is to find a home for herself, and to make the world a better and kinder place for everyone who had to grow up living in fear with no freedom like she did. she’s been told her entire life that the only way to accomplish that goal is to conquer and rule the seven kingdoms, but it’s not the only way, because she’s still doing all of that to some extent in mereen.
likewise, sansa doesn’t even express any sort of political inclinations towards northern independence in the books. what SHE wants is to go home as herself, and also for the world to be a better and kinder place. obviously she’s not doing the whole breaker of chains worldwide liberation thing dany is (sansa does not have the lived experience of growing up on the streets) but she very clearly does also have this sense of empathy and concern for the people she meets who are downtrodden by the political system.
obviously their goals aren’t unilaterally the same but they do clearly align with each other. they have the same ideas about what power should be used for: it’s not having it for power’s sake but to improve the lives of the people you rule over, loving them and having them love you back. they’re both idealists, which gets dismissed as teenage-girl naivety by the gross older men in their lives, but it’s very real and there. saying they’re entirely oppositional is just wrong

i really don't know, but whatever you'll write will be awesome !!!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
you wanted to turn into a ball of sadness.
you, the sunshine of the camp (quite literally), the joy, the laughter, everything nice, was quiet all day. your siblings asked you what's wrong, your friends asked you whats wrong, but you waved them off with a simple 'i'm tired.'
even the sun was not shining bright enough, matching with your mood. even your dad could say something is wrong with you too.
the problem was... nothing actually. maybe you were tired, or you were becoming bipolar. you didn't know. but you wanted to be away from anyone else until you find the light inside you again.
the light being percy, of course.
he entered his cabin as usual, just coming back from his classic surfing session. he left the board leaning to the blue wall as he shaked the water from his hair. he didn't saw you at first; because you were under his blue blankets, hugging yourself like a newborn baby.
he hummed one of the songs you writed for him as he entered the shower, taking the sticky feeling of the salt water off.
you did heard him, but you waited until he found you.
after a quick shower, he get out from the bathroom dressed, ready to chill in his bed until you arrive. the moment he opened his blanket, he jumped.
"holy hera!" he yelped, hands resting on his knees as he realised it was you, who were a giggling mess right now. maybe the real sunshine was percy, the boy who always made you laugh through everything.
"hey," you said, smiling. he looked at you, he wanted to be angry at you for making him jump like that, and in normal circumstanses he would pull out the riptide; but the way you smiled made all of his thoughts go away.
"hello my serial killer." he said, already joining you in his bed. he take you in his arms and peppered your hair with kisses, taking off the chillness of the water with your warm body. you immediatly hugged him back, smelling his signature scent; salt water.
you chuckled at him. "where have you been?" you asked, even though you knew he was surfing every sundays. you just wanted him to talk away your problems with his rambling. you only needed his voice in your head.
"y'know baby, just surfin' and all," he murmured to your hair, kissing the place again. he loved how you smelled like the early hours of the morning, and he can't even express this out loud. you had a smell like summer, fun and childish. it was like his own drug.
"you gonna tell me why you were in my bed, all curling up?" he asked you, already knowing you were having a shit day. "or are we just going to cuddle? you know both is fine with me."
you knew of course. your boyfriend was the best when it camed to lighten your mood.
"i don't even know what's wrong myself," you mumled, voice coming out as a muffle since you hugged his bare chest tightly. "can you keep talking? it helps." you spoke quietly.
"of course baby," he kissed your hair again. "hmm, what can i say.. oh! i saved a little kid from drowning today." he told you as he pulled away a little to see your expression. you immediatly gasped and asked him what happened.
as he excitedly told you about the little adventure he had with the little boy, using all of his body to make it more realistic, you smiled to yourself. the sun shining all by itself is a fucking lie, you thought. and percy was definetly the proof of that. because if he wasn't in your life to cheer you up, you probably wouldn't even shine again.

I love the characters whose perceptions of their own powers and abilities and personalities are all completely fucked by their own context.
Prince Zuko for example: The guy goes around like “wow is me. I am such a failure of a Fire Bender” for three whole seasons of television.
Babe, no. It’s just that the only 3 people on the entire planet who are better at it than you all live in your house.
Obi-Wan Kenobi only thinks he’s a less powerful Jedi because his constant companions are essentially the demigod descendants of an Eldritch Horror running the galaxy. Everyone knows else, including the Eldritch Horror Spawn, think you’re in the top 10 to ever live.
I could go on, but the main point is that I live for the moments when a character who is constantly down on themselves off-handed mentions something the other characters know to be near impossible and have their Elle Woods moment when questioned.
“What, like it’s hard?”
Yes, yes my guys, gals, and non-binary folk. Yes it is hard.
You’ve just trained yourself to think that you had to succeed at everything right up to the lines of the impossible and perfect because you spent a lifetime watching very particular people calmly go skipping right over it.
You are now hyper-competent and should maybe look in to getting some therapy before we all inevitably turn to you to survive the on-coming End of Days.

i just saw someone say, well actually write, that "oh, lay my sweet lass down in the grass/my featherbed" actually forshadows a future sansa and gendry relationship (🤮) and that sansa and gendry are far better suited for each other than arya and gendry... did we read the same books? what's new this time is that this person was not a stansa, (who are notoriously known for trying to steal every plot point or relationships of arya stark ((and even dany)) to give to their fave) nope, this person actually had a hateboner for the baratheons, (fair actually, robert baratheon was a despicable man) but it's pretty ironic to hate gendry because of that, to that person: guess what character would probably piss on robert baratheon's tomb alongside you? yup, gendry, after his parentage gets revealed to him, i pretty much can see him breaking something in pure anger over this, also at this point in the books, gendry has no relation to the baratheons, he's just a no name bastard at worst and an outlaw knight at best, so why would someone put a baseborn outlaw bastard knight who hates nobility with a passion (with two known exceptions) with one of the most classist nobles to ever exist together in a romantic way? gendry was already class conscious with arya (one of the most progressive nobles to ever exist) and she never cared about people being born on the wrong side of the blanket as the text puts it, why would you do my boy gendry like that? it is because the books gave sansa as "love interests" joffrey, the hound and littlefinger, which are shitty choices and rotten men but i digress.
so lets take a song that pretty much describe a noble girl not wanting to conform to the traditional idea of noble marriage with everything it follows but still want to be together with her loved one and it's willing to defy societal norms with her lover by her side if he accepts to and lets give it to a noble girl known to thrive and excell at following all the norms of the traditional society has for girls and women in westeros... at least make it made sense
sorry to the people that follow this sideblog of mine to see my s!ms only, i had thoughts and i wanted to rant

Tumblr media
you were having a terrible day, from running late and forgetting your coffee to getting a D on the research paper you worked tirelessly on for days. you were exhausted, your head pounding. making sure you continued to focus only on your classes the entire day, you ignored wanda’s texts, the ones where she told you how proud she was of you or that she hoped you had a good day, because if you didn’t. you were sure you’d have a breakdown right then and there and you weren’t ready for a scene.
driving back home in a daze, you parked in your designated parking space. you took everything in your hands but didn’t leave the car. you were positive wanda would be worried, but you didn’t want her to worry about you. she was already so stressed about a painting commission she was working on. and you didn’t want to burden her with your problems. you had a terrible day, but you were sure you could manage. you always did. so you put on your best smile for the show and exited the car.
wanda was patiently waiting, her painting incomplete resting on the easel as she stood in the kitchen working on dinner. and when she heard the juggling of the keys in the doorway she smiled instantly. she left the kitchen to greet you with a tight hug but her smile dropped almost immediately and she knew something was wrong.
even when you came over and kissed her, even when you smiled at her and told her the dinner smelled amazing, and even when you knelt to pet your cat, cooing and praising. everything was routine but she knew something was wrong.
but she didn’t say anything, she took your bag and your jacket off. she pressed a gentle kiss on your forehead and gave you a reassuring smile, tucking a strand of hair behind your ear and giving your shoulder a squeeze before a soft “dinner is ready, my darling girl.”
dinner wasn’t silent, wanda spoke about her day and her painting, how your cat had managed to do a trick, and how the plumber finally came to fix the leak. and you listened, halfheartedly but you still did. and wanda never said anything about that, still choosing to intertwine her fingers with yours over the dining table, rubbing her thumb over your knuckles.
when you finished dinner, you immediately went to your shared bedroom, choosing to remove your clothes, not caring about your underwear, and laying down under the covers instead of taking a warm bath like you planned to in the early morning. and wanda silently placed the dishes in the dishwasher before joining you in your room. she was already changed before you got home so she easily swept under the covers with you and pulled you flush against her chest, watching the reruns of modern family on the T.V.
she could tell you were tense, she could feel you fidgeting next to her. she didn’t want to pressure you but she also wanted to let you know she was there so she pushed against the thoughts in her head, running a soft hand through your hair before a gentle “want to tell me what’s wrong, doll?” resonated in the room.
and your eyes instantly brimmed with tears, you shook your head and hid your face in the crook of your girlfriend’s neck. she just cooed, mumbling a small ‘my angel’ in your hair as she wrapped her arms tightly around your body, letting you soak her neck and her college t-shirt with your tears.
she didn’t say anything, just pressed kisses against your temple and hummed you soft melodies. and you lost track of how long you sat there crying and you didn’t realize you had moved onto her lap in the midst of it. you finally pulled yourself away from her when the burden on your chest lightened, and your mind cleared, a light flush on your face as you whispered “sorry about your shirt”
she cooed once more, wiping your tears away delicately with her thumb as she shook her head “no need to apologize, doll. are you feeling any better?” and when you nodded, she beamed. a smile so bright that it instantly made your heart flutter. she cupped your face and pressed a million tiny kisses on your face as if apologizing for your bad day and you couldn’t help the smile that ghosted on your face. she had that effect on you, she made you smile even at your worst moments and you loved her for it.
she pushed the hair that had fallen in front of your face away, the back of her index finger tracing your cheekbone before coming to gently tap your nose. you scrunched up your nose in response and she did the same. now both hands placed on your hips, she pulled you closer so now your chest was pressed against hers and you flushed, licking your lips in anticipation when you looked into her eyes, a playful glint shining in the green orbs.
she pressed a soft kiss on your lips and you instantly kissed her back, humming, arms wrapped around her neck. and gradually her soft kisses grew firm and greedy as she hungrily devoured your mouth but still with a softness that she had for you. she panted against your lips and gave your behind a soft squeeze, and when you gasped, she pushed her tongue in your mouth and you moaned at the taste that was so uniquely wanda.
she pulled away with a grin, her lips wet and glistening with your spit as she gently took the straps of your bra down your shoulders, not bothering to remove it completely “mommy hates it when she’s not the reason you’re crying”
and you can’t help the moan that left your mouth. you hadn’t even realized how you ached for her, how bad you needed her, how bad you needed your mommy. how bad you wanted her touch. and touch you she did. she pressed soft kisses against your neck and collarbone, nipping and sucking red marks that will turn purple the next morning and will cause you problems to hide but you don’t care. you grind on her lap, seeking any sort of friction and wanda knows you’ve been through enough today because she doesn’t try to stop you. she whispers a “what a good girl” and helps you grind harder, and you finally understand why when your clit catches the tip of the strap you didn’t notice she was wearing.
you whine, not needing her help anymore and you begin to set up your own pace, and she lets you, looking up at you through her eyelashes as she gropes and fondles your breasts, leaning down to cover them in hickeys and bites too, enveloping both of your nipples in her mouth one by one.
you grow tired easily and whine out a soft “mommy” when you can’t move your hips anymore. wanting relief but too exhausted to grind down, the lack of proper stimulation and friction making you tear up. you’re insanely wet, but you just want her to fuck you. to make sure you’re full and to make you cum but she just tsk’s, leaning up from the bed with you still in her lap to slide her sweats down as she pushed your panties to the side, noting how cute they were and deciding to comment on them later. she grabs your chin and you instantly open your mouth. she sounds out a small “aww” and presses two fingers easily in your mouth. “doll, look at me. look at your mommy”
and you open your eyes to look at her through your lust-driven haze, and she’s absolutely breathtaking. you gag slightly against her fingers that are caressing the back of your throat and she mockingly nods her head along, as if she understands. you’re so wet that you’re dripping down on her lap and she knows it, she knows and she’s still not doing anything and it makes you cry. but she’s kind enough today that she doesn’t make you beg.
“angel, shh. i need you to ride mommy, think you can do that?” she starts softly, her fingers slowly moving in and out your mouth as she looks at you, staring softly, a small smile on her face as she continues when you don’t answer “you want to make me proud dont you, sweetheart? so to do that, i need you to be a big girl and ride mommy’s cock until you cum. think my good little doll could do that?
and the praise is enough to make your head spin, using your favorite pet names with that sickeningly sweet smile and that soft tone, you nod. a series of mumbled “yes mommy”s followed and she grins, taking her fingers out and smearing your saliva on your already wet lips “attagirl.”
she doesn’t want to take your panties off completely, she loves the way they look at you, the baby-pink cotton panties with lace hemings she got you so she has them pushed aside when you rose and then inched down on her lap slowly. and she moans, and you don’t realize at that time that it’s a double-ended strap.
the stretch burns, but it burns so good it has your toes curling and you instantly set up a quick pace, wanting to cum so bad. the room is filled with wandas soft pants, your moans, and the sound of the strap reaching so deep in your core that it makes you see stars.
she knows you’re close, it doesn’t take much for you to cum and wanda loves that so through her pants and her thrusting up her hips to meet yours, she makes sure to pinch your nipples just the way you like them and she relishes the yelps you let out. she just smiles, wrapping an arm around your waist and ramming into your core with whispered “my perfect girl, so good for me. so good for mommy” against your throat.
“beg, darling.” but at the end of the day, she’s still evil so she holds down your waist, stopping your movements completely. she doesn’t care about her pleasure, how’s she torturing herself too. but she tilts her head when you let out a whine, tears now falling down your cheeks as she pouts, licking them off your face “you always look so pretty when you beg for mommy. so use your pretty words, and i’ll let you come as many times as you want”
and beg you do. a series of broken pleas and moans fall from your lips and she just smiles, you can see her pearly white teeth through your blurry eyes and it makes you cry even harder “please ‘et me cum, m-mommy. i’m your good girl-“ and that has her cooing again, her smile softer now as she once again continues her movement. “you are my good girl. my perfect kitty that likes to be filled by her mommy all the time, yeah?”
it’s the mixture of her repeatedly hitting your g-spot, her voice and two fingers rubbing tight circles on your clit that makes you come, finally falling over the edge with a silent gasp. you see nothing but hot white, and your girlfriend still goes on, relentlessly thrusting up into you with a grunt “give mommy more, angel. you wanted to cum, so cum for me until i tell you to stop.”
you’re already oversensitive, and you’re still not recovered from your intense climax but you still go on, for her. for your mommy, she said she wanted more so you need to give her more. she’s relentless, pulling you down to match her hard thrusts that leave you moaning each time and you already feel yourself cumming the second time, your clit throbbing without even being touched.
your head falls on her shoulder, and you can tell she’s close and you are too, and you can’t even feel embarrassed about it because of how much you want to come again. come for your mommy. you close your eyes and it’s muscle movement that has your fingers running under her shirt and pinching her nipples that make her cum and you cum with her. with her moans clear in your ear that has you squeezing the strap in your pussy. wanda already had a hand in between her legs that you didn’t notice. her legs spasming and shaking as she slowly rid her high out.
you both lay there for a while with you on top of her, panting and catching your breath. she has a hand running up and down your back before she softly peels you away from her skin. you whine, and she shushes you almost immediately. she places you gently on the bed next to her and slowly takes out the strap which makes you shudder. she hums out a “my babygirl okay?” and when you give a soft nod, she presses soft kisses on your face
“i’m gonna run you a hot bath, don’t fall asleep on me doll,” she whispers, knowing you were already in and out of sleep. she takes the strap off and puts it away to clean later, she walks off to the bathroom to turn on the bath and then gets you a glass of water. and she has to sit you up and help you drink the water sip by sip and when the glass is empty she pets your head and mumbles a “that’s my good girl” against your cheek.
she caries you bridal style and you don’t complain, not when she puts you in the hot bath that smells like your favorite bath bomb and has bubbles. you sit there sleepily and your girlfriend settles behind you. she cleans you up gently, shampooing your hair and using the scrub you love the most. you’re almost completely asleep by the time you’re out of the bath and she has you dressed in your fluffy pajamas. the sheets on the bed have already been put in the washer.
she tucks you in and lays down next to you once again, smiling when you instantly curl up next to her like a kitty. and she holds you close through the night, knowing that tomorrow you will talk to her about what was bothering you.

There's nothing more self-inserting in this fandom than the people who actually hate Rhaegar Targaryen (and sometimes by extension Lyanna and Daenerys and other Targaryens).
But with Rhaegar it's very peculiar. With either Rhaegar positive or neutral fans, you can discuss things like connections he has with characters in actual canon, by actually canon references, that give him some depth whatsoever in turn. Love RxL shippers with all the actually newer clues highlighted compared to your typical "Jon's parentage" checklists because it gives more character interiority. Love the Jon and Dany fans who've given more attention to the connections clearly drawn on purpose by the author that are also doing that.
But people who outright hate this tertiary character? The emotionally driven rants as if this man was their own boyfriend or father and wronged them specifically and that's all the focus of it? Only ever writing in "depth" about him in scenarios that are clearly made up and can only be explained as projection from some baggage none of us trying to read some book are interested in? Very odd behaviour.

After years of living on the run under assumed identities and burying her past deep down where it couldn't be weaponized against her or her loved ones, her own name has grown near foreign to her. On the bright side, seeing as the press can't keep the name Princess Arya Stark out of their fucking mouths and off their fucking cover pages, the novelty will probably wear off in no time, she's sure.

connections between naerys and sansa?
There’s plenty! She’s very much in a Naerys/Aegon scenario in ASOS & ACOK, where she has no ability to leave the capital, no one doing anything meaningful to protect her, and a King that is obsessed with sexually humiliating her. There’s a lot of romanticism and chivalry surrounding her character and how other people react to her character, the same as Naerys.
But also, Sansa makes the comparisons to Naerys herself, and she does it before she realizes what kind of person Joffrey is! In fact, it starts with her very first chapter where she compares Joffrey interrupting Ilyn Payne & Sandor Clegane to Aemon demanding a trial by combat against Ser Morgil:
A whole day with her prince! She gazed at Joffrey worshipfully. He was so gallant, she thought. The way he had rescued her from Ser Ilyn and the Hound, why, it was almost like the songs, like the time Serwyn of the Mirror Shield saved the Princess Daeryssa from the giants, or Prince Aemon the Dragonknight championing Queen Naerys's honor against evil Ser Morgil's slanders.
She will compare Joffrey to Aemon and herself to Naerys again later, to Ned:
"Father, I only just now remembered, I can't go away, I'm to marry Prince Joffrey." She tried to smile bravely for him. "I love him, Father, I truly truly do, I love him as much as Queen Naerys loved Prince Aemon the Dragonknight, as much as Jonquil loved Ser Florian. I want to be his queen and have his babies."
(lowkey she’s so fucking funny for that “i only just now remembered” comment, idk how ned kept a straight face for it)
She then uses Aemon (and the Cargyll twins) to make Tommen feel better and dunk on Joffrey:
Prince Tommen sobbed. "You mew like a suckling babe," his brother hissed at him. "Princes aren't supposed to cry." "Prince Aemon the Dragonknight cried the day Princess Naerys wed his brother Aegon," Sansa Stark said, "and the twins Ser Arryk and Ser Erryk died with tears on their cheeks after each had given the other a mortal wound." "Be quiet, or I'll have Ser Meryn give you a mortal wound," Joffrey told his betrothed.
Again, there’s a focus on Aemon’s romantic relationship with Naerys because that's what appeals to Sansa. But when people say "Sansa sees the world through stories" it's not just about how she romanticizes or idolizes knighthood, nobility, and chivalry - she thinks through information by comparing it with similar historical events or stories and analyzing it. She clearly sees the problem with Loras protecting Margaery from Joffrey by comparing him to the Toynes instead of Aemon, and Joffrey (once again) to Aegon the Unworthy:
She is so brave, Sansa thought, galloping after her . . . and yet, her doubts still gnawed at her. Ser Loras was a great knight, all agreed. But Joffrey had other Kingsguard, and gold cloaks and red cloaks besides, and when he was older he would command armies of his own. Aegon the Unworthy had never harmed Queen Naerys, perhaps for fear of their brother the Dragonknight . . . but when another of his Kingsguard fell in love with one of his mistresses, the king had taken both their heads. Ser Loras is a Tyrell, Sansa reminded herself. That other knight was only a Toyne. His brothers had no armies, no way to avenge him but with swords. Yet the more she thought about it all, the more she wondered. Joff might restrain himself for a few turns, perhaps as long as a year, but soon or late he will show his claws, and when he does . . . The realm might have a second Kingslayer, and there would be war inside the city, as the men of the lion and the men of the rose made the gutters run red.
She’s also not wrong in her assessment here because the Tyrells (my guess is Garlan and Olenna) are so worried about this outcome they just murder Joffrey and install Tommen; like Bethany Bracken, Margaery is groomed (with all the implications that are included in such a loaded term) to be sexually available to the King because her father wants power and doesn't care if his daughter is sexually abused to get it. Like Terrance Toyne, Loras is considered attractive, skilled, and has several brothers more than willing to start a war to avenge his death. I think it's incredibly intuitive that Sansa ultimately comes to the same conclusion as two seasoned political players like (presumably) Olenna and Garlan come to, and she makes this judgement call very quickly!
And Sansa also hits on a lot of (correct) similarities when she makes these comparisons between Joffrey's court and Aegon the Unworthy's court; Aegon and Joffrey both have wild, violent temperaments while being notoriously difficult to control. It’s not just Naerys that attempts to get Aegon to stop marital raping her; Aemon’s useless tears aside, Viserys does do the bare minimum here in sending Aegon away so Naerys can heal from her miscarriages, Daeron got shitty with the Brackens about being tacky over Naerys' marital rape and ill health, Baelor fasts himself to death over Naerys’ miscarriages, etc etc. All of the “authority figures” around Aegon think his behavior is wrong but Aegon proves stubbornly difficult to control or kill. Joffrey falls along these same lines - Cersei, Robert, Tyrion, Tywin, and even Varys all struggle to get some control over Joffrey but like Aegon, he knows once he’s of age and has that crown he doesn’t have to answer for SHIT and stubbornly resists every attempt to curb his behavior. Joffrey is a hell scenario waiting to happen because like Aegon, he’s petty and petulant enough to pull the stunts Aegon pulls like pitting his true born kids against his bastard born ones and causing another violent succession crisis. I say this as like, the ultimate Joffrey Apologist here, lmaooo, he has reasons for being a nasty piece of shit but the Tyrells are right to look at him and go “oh that’s trouble” because he is a ticking time bomb. And the crazy thing is, it’s not just Sansa who compares Joffrey to Aegon the Unworthy:
"A king can have other women. Whores. My father did. One of the Aegons did too. The third one, or the fourth. He had lots of whores and lots of bastards." As they whirled to the music, Joff gave her a moist kiss. "My uncle will bring you to my bed whenever I command it." Sansa shook her head. "He won't." "He will, or I'll have his head. That King Aegon, he had any woman he wanted, whether they were married or no."
Joffrey makes the comparison himself. He's a piece of work just like his hero and he is directly threatening to rape Sansa the same way Aegon raped Naerys and poor Bethany Bracken. He is directly admitting he is "unworthy" and practically daring all of KL to overthrow him for it because he thinks they'll blink before he does (and he is unfortunately deadly wrong in this assumption).
And when you extrapolate out from there, you can see other, similar patterns between Naerys' life and Sansa's, beyond the Joffrey-Aegon, Margaery-Bethany, Loras-Terrance, and Sansa-Naerys parallels. Tyrion himself aspires to be a sort of Viserys II type player (see: "It should have been called the Lives of Five Kings" rant he gives to Oberyn); a power behind the throne directing his crazy family to do what's right or smart or proper. There's an interesting echo in Viserys taking direct action in sending Aegon away from Naerys and Tyrion stopping Joffrey in his assault of Sansa - like Viserys, he can see the monster in the king he is raising, makes an attempt to stop it, but fails because he underestimates just how dangerous and erratic his little king has become. Like Viserys, Tyrion is suspected of poisoning his own nephew in an attempt to get closer to power and the throne (and Viserys, like Tyrion, is probably innocent - the sort of fasting that Baelor was doing regularly is hard on the body!).
I don't think any of this is coincidental or accidental either, because of that haunting scene where Joffrey destroys the gift Tyrion got him. Here's the scene, excuse the wall of text, but it's important:
He plays the gracious king today. Joffrey could be gallant when it suited him, Sansa knew, but it seemed to suit him less and less. Indeed, all his courtesy vanished at once when Tyrion presented him with their own gift: a huge old book called Lives of Four Kings, bound in leather and gorgeously illuminated. The king leafed through it with no interest. "And what is this, Uncle?" A book. Sansa wondered if Joffrey moved those fat wormy lips of his when he read. "Grand Maester Kaeth's history of the reigns of Daeron the Young Dragon, Baelor the Blessed, Aegon the Unworthy, and Daeron the Good," her small husband answered. "A book every king should read, Your Grace," said Ser Kevan. “My father had no time for books.” Joffrey shoved the tome across the table. “If you read less, Uncle Imp, perhaps Lady Sansa would have a baby in her belly by now.” He laughed … and when the king laughs, the court laughs with him. “Don’t be sad, Sansa, once I’ve gotten Queen Margaery with child I’ll visit your bedchamber and show my little uncle how it’s done.” Sansa reddened. She glanced nervously at Tyrion, afraid of what he might say. This could turn as nasty as the bedding had at their own feast. But for once the dwarf filled his mouth with wine instead of words... [Joffrey gets a Valyrian sword and figures out a name for it, Widow's Wail, it's a few pages, it's not relevant here] Joffrey brought Widow’s Wail down in a savage two-handed slice, onto the book that Tyrion had given him. The heavy leather cover parted at a stroke. “Sharp! I told you, I am no stranger to Valyrian steel.” It took him half a dozen further cuts to hack the thick tome apart, and the boy was breathless by the time he was done. Sansa could feel her husband struggling with his fury as Ser Osmund Kettleblack shouted, “I pray you never turn that wicked edge on me, sire.” “See that you never give me cause, ser.” Joffrey flicked a chunk of Lives of Four Kings off the table at swordpoint, then slid Widow’s Wail back into its scabbard. “Your Grace,” Ser Garlan Tyrell said. “Perhaps you did not know. In all of Westeros there were but four copies of that book illuminated in Kaeth’s own hand.” “Now there are three.” Joffrey undid his old swordbelt to don his new one. “You and Lady Sansa owe me a better present, Uncle Imp. This one is all chopped to pieces.”
God I love that passage so much. There's a lot there but what's relevant is a) both Oberyn and Garlan are trying to get a measure of who Joffrey is, and have some child murdering plans potentially in the works during this scene. Watching Joffrey destroy a priceless tome of history given as a well thought, well meant, incredibly generous (and pointed) gift from his uncle is more than enough proof for either man to decide Joffrey is not worth the headache, and please note Garlan is the only person to call Joffrey out to his face, and Oberyn is a few pages later the only person to acknowledge this was a fantastic and kind gift from Tyrion that Joffrey reacted absolutely deranged towards for no reason. and b) Tyrion is almost literally saying to Joffrey "I can be your Viserys, I can make it so you're remembered as a great king the way Daeron II or Baelor are, or a great warrior like Daeron I, but you have to understand the reason why I'm worried about your behavior" and Joffrey does the most destructive, unworthy thing he can possibly do - he quite literally destroys priceless, useful historical knowledge and wisdom with his bare hands, in favor of senseless, petulant violence. As Catelyn would say, Joffrey's real bride is not Margaery, but the war he's fighting and the crown on his head.
All of this to say - there's a lot of parallels between Sansa's situation in KL and Naery's life and these parallels are drawn not only by Sansa herself, but also by several people around her. However, I hope for better things for Sansa than what poor Naerys got - I hope for an Aemon the Dragonknight that will do more than just cry while she's raped, but actually step into that room and defend her, or else give her the power to defend herself. Despite the long wait for The Winds of Winter, I also think it's likely we will get some sort of Dragonknight, devoted sworn sword for Sansa and this person will help protect her, and Sansa will have agency that Naerys could only ever dream of.

Imagine being 9 years old and asking your dad about the things you're interested in doing when you grow up and he's like "No ❤️! But you can get married, have babies, and then maybe your sons can do those things ☺️🫶 "
