Micro comic Summer is back!
Here's my tiny tale from last year, of some kiddos finding a hurt baby dragon, and taking care of it until the dragons return next spring.

From the back cover of Dragon 35, March 1980 — upside-down ad for Ogre Miniatures sci-fi microarmor including heavy tank, GEV, and missile tank. Martian Metals of Cedar Park, Texas, often ran ads this way to draw attention.

OMG HAVE YOU SEEN THE VIDEOS THIS ACCOUNT POSTS
https://youtu.be/T44VzPAPvSc
Oh my god finally someone with brain cells!!! You have to see their videos they make such good points!!
I, too, enjoy Hills Alive's content, anon! I don't agree with everything she says, but I appreciate how she's not afraid to go against the grain and make the unpopular argument.
My thoughts on House Hightower are very similar to hers, in truth. The amount of hate they get from the audience is downright embarrassing. House Hightower are in no way the villains of ASOIAF. Lord Leyton and Malara have been studying something magical and arcane up in their high tower (heh) for nigh on 10 years and are getting ready for an insane showdown with Euron Greyjoy, one of the actual villains of the series.
The Hightowers are connected to the Great Empire of the Dawn, with sorcery and science and religion and, in a lot of ways, represent the very essence and the very best of Westeros. Their modus operandi for most of their history has been to assimilate, negotiate and rely on soft power, as opposed to violence, conquest or trickery. Their interests comprise education, spirituality and the combination of both within the arcane mysteries. They maintain an open mind and are politically adept. They're very rich, but prefer not to participate in regional or country-wide politics, leaving the Gardners and then the Tyrells to be the official representatives of the Reach. The city of Oldtown is beautiful and cool AF, as opposed to the foul stench of King's Landing.
In the context of the HotD fandom, the problem I have with the majority of black stans is their utter refusal to look at the wider picture of Targaryen rule. For the people of Westeros, they are colonisers equipped with the medieval equivalent of nuclear weapons, threatening them with extreme violence and forcing their bizarre customs on them. They do not negotiate, they demand complete submission or else.
So the way I perceive House Hightower's role within the wider narrative is that their ideology has always centered on incremental progress and societal change via the proliferation of ideas. The only time we see them getting involved in Westerosi politics is by providing two Queens. This happens at a time when House Targaryen is very set on inter-marriages or, at most, alliances with the Velaryons and the Baratheons, if they have to marry outside the family. Both of those noble houses are of Valyrian descent as well. The Targaryens are still setting themselves apart from the society they have conquered and now wish to rule.
The first of the Hightower queens, Ceryse, marries Maegor in the period immediately following the Conquest. There is a 10-year age difference between them, why her? She is the High Septon's niece. If you ask me, this was the Hightowers' first attempt to try to "domesticate" the Targaryens into something more palatable to Westerosi society. The Faith Militant rises up in rebellion against Maegor when he insists on Valyrian customs like incest and polygamy.
Jaehaerys and Alysanne marry very young, so the possibility of another marriage alliance is out of the question. Alyssa and Baelon, a similar situation. Viserys marries his cousin Aemma, naturally, but what happens the next time there is an opening for the position of queen? Alicent enters the stage.
Now, Targ stans perceive the Hightowers as some kind of overreaching, overly-ambitious upstarts, but they are literally one of the oldest great houses of Westeros. The Great Empire of the Dawn predates Valyria. I am not saying that Otto or Alicent couldn't have their very own personal motivations or ambitions, but I do wonder if there is a sort of ideological background or the concept of a higher purpose informing their actions. Not necessarily as part of the show (hard to prove whether they chose to go down that route), but certainly permeating out of the text material and bleeding throughout the course of Westerosi history.
So, in this sense, Aegon II would, in a way, represent the ideal Targaryen king for them - someone connected to the Hightowers via blood, content to let them administer the realm in his stead, while he goes off and does whatever, as long as he performs his ceremonial roles and doesn't cause the kind of trouble that cannot be contained. For the first time since the Conquest, the Hightowers would finally have control over those feared mass destruction weapons and would be able to enact their particular style of ruling, via appeasement and integration.
What I ultimately find funny and ironic is that the Hightowers do achieve these objectives, just not in the way they may have initially envisioned. The debates involving Rhaenyra's ancestors being the ones to carry on the Targaryen line I ultimately find meaningless, because, in the end, the Hightowers got what they wanted. Yes, they sacrificed an entire branch of their family and lost a great deal of human resources and wealth in the war, but the dragons are gone. They lost their queen(s) and their king, but now the Targaryens are just like everyone else. And they'll have to play by the same rules. If they don't, well, expressing dissent has just become a lot easier.
You can definitely argue that the purpose of every noble house is to advance their own cause and their own family and that the actions of House Hightower should be strictly interpreted through this lens. However, after the Dance, the Hightowers do not seem interested in attempting another takeover ever again and are content to exert their influence throughout Westeros via their two very wide-reaching and powerful instruments: The Citadel, who trains all maesters, and The Faith, the main religion of the land. They effectively opt out of the game of thrones again.
The biggest military advantage House Targaryen held over the Seven Kingdoms has effectively been neutralised. The balance of power is much fairer. This creates the conditions that will allow Robert's Rebellion to succeed years later, finally ejecting the Targaryens from a continent they terrorized. Whereas the Hightowers are still there, thriving in their beautiful city.
If you ask me, the blacks can keep this "victory".

day 18 - 1/18/24 - micro snake
it is the size of a small mote of dust. it has venom so potent 1 mL could kill 10 humans. however it is so small that it does not have enough venom to hurt you. it contains probably one μL of venom. but maybe, with enough effort, it could kill a fly. keep dreaming micro snake <3
