Let’s face it, when GRRM wrote the ending of the Dance, he put a pause on the whole Aegon and Jaehaera union, and realized that something was not right here.
Sure, it’s an “arranged marriage for peace” trope like the one from The Wars of the Roses…but kind of unnecessary (since the Blacks won), and also kind of disappointing because it sends the following message: “Usurpers and traitors should be rewarded.”
Otto and Alicent Hightower wanted their bloodline on the Iron Throne. They schemed, seduced and then started a whole war for it. Making Jaehaera queen (and have her potentially give birth to Aegon’s children) would give these two opportunists a win.
And then he thought about Aegon III, a broken child, forced in wedlock with the girl of the mad usurper who murdered his mother right in front of him.
And then, GRRM asked himself, who would deserve the honor of being Aegon III’s Queen and mother his children?
1. A girl from House Velaryon, a House who has always been on the side of the Blacks (even after Rhaenyra’s death), and fought for the true heir to the throne honorably and faithfully?
or
2. The last girl from the defeated enemy party, who had Hightower blood coursing through her veins?
The answer is pretty clear. And as such, thinking about granting Aegon III happiness, GRRM created Daenaera Velaryon, the always smiling little queen, who contributed to healing the boy’s broken heart.
This is why Daenaera Velaryon is Aegon III’s true wife and Queen in canon and why her presence in his life is essential.

I held her once, right then and there, needing to hold something tangible, something alive, so that in death, I wouldn't be so lonely. She struggled to live, I struggled to die, neither of us could win the other. How do I put it? I sought to absorb some smell of life from her, holding onto her tightly, craving her breath, her scent, her restless movements. Behind me was death, so I held her face to face, refusing to let go, afraid to turn away. For if I turned back, I shall turn rigid, cold and rotten.

Another Daenaera commission for Khulaaaan on twt, the prompt was "Daenaera giving a nameday gift to Aegon. Since she didn't own many things of her own she gave her father's compass to Aegon, which her father left to her before his last sail to his death"

Princess Daena Targaryen and her son Daemon Blackfyre 🫶🏻 I know red isn't the color she's usually described wearing, but I think it looked good for a court portrait! So here I leave you this portrait of The Defiant and the future Black Dragon ✌🏼
PD: See you in 500 years when I find time again to draw the portrait of Septa Rhaena 🥲

This should be the final scene from House of the Dragon:
Tumblr media
The extremely emotional reunion of Rhaenyra and Daemon’s sons.
Aegon III Targaryen married to Daenaera Velaryon.
Alyn Velaryon and Baela Targaryen as the Lord and Lady of Driftmark.
Rhaena Targaryen (the rider of the Blacks’ pride and joy, the dragon Morning) and her husband, Corwyn Corbray (Brave valeman and Team Black supporter).
Alicent Hightower’s horrific, well-deserved end and the treacherous Green line permanently ended.
A new beginning for the true members of House Targaryen.
And I want Rhaenyra’s theme to play in the background, just as it did in the first episode, because this is after all, her victory.

“They should just keep Jaehaera with Aegon and get rid of Daenaera and give Daenaera’s kids with him to Jaehaera. It's a fitting ending for the Dance to bring the two branches of the dynasty back toge-”

Okay fuck it I'm done.
Remember that little rant I had a while ago about Jaehaera? And how she was just a little girl that deserved so much better?
Well today I saw this
Tumblr media
And now there's an even bigger rant incoming.
I'm just flabbergasted, I don't know what to say except are you really this petty?
This person on Twitter commissioned a wonderful portrait of Aegon III's family, which looks great, I really have nothing against the artist, he was just doing his job.
Buut, as that user says
"Note a certain Doll tossed aside on the left next to Aegon😏"
So yes, a team black stan was so mad at the mere suggestion that Daenaera would be cut from the ending of hotd that they commissioned a well known Asoiaf/f&b artist to draw Aegon's family with a little doll to remind us that Jaehaera is dead and thus no longer in the way.
I just have to say...
What is wrong with you? Seriously, I admit I've spent some money on hotd/asoiaf related things out of passion for the story, but I've never gotten to the point of commissioning art to spite people in the fandom that have an opinion I don't agree with.
Also, alright, you don't like the greens, that's fine! We all have our own tastes. But this? It's just sick. Wanting a fictional, traumatized 10 year old girl to be dead so badly you pay people to remind everyone that she's gone is on another level. Cause I firmly believe this was drawn only for that reason,not to actually show a wholesome family portrait.
I'm so done with these people. Do they ever go outside of their mom's basements? Have they ever touched grass? I don't think so, otherwise they'd spend their money for better things than celebrating a child's death.
This is the kind of team black person who will happily watch blood and Cheese happen and cheer when Jaehaeys is decapitated.
The sheer toxicity of this fandom is unbelievable. I genuinely haven't seen this amount of pettyness since the days before the aot ending.
Get a life, seriously.
P.s
I got this image from the r/hotdgreens sub on Reddit.
