If Daemon really did love Laena like that... What wuld he have done of she actually did five him a son or two meanwhile Rhaenyra and her sons are alive and kicking?
Like. Wuld he still try to have a some by Rhaenyra? Or wuld he be plotting to kill all her sons and put his on the throne???
OORRRR what wuld Daemon do if Laenor died and was conviniently removed as an opsticle and Rhaenyra is just... There. Painfully available. And he's married. To Laena. Someone he genuenly loves and respects...
Wuld Deamon ever have it withing him to k!ll Laena? U mean. Rhaenyra is FINALLY available! This is a once in a blue moon event!
Hi there Queen! 🤗
You just want to see me cancelled for good don't you? You just want to see the world burn 😂😂 Fine, let's do this, let's see how many followers I lose 😂😂😂
So, we know how much Daemon wanted a son because that's hammered on us again, and again, and again...
Tumblr media
... throughout Fire and Blood.
About him loving Laena... the only thing said about his feelings towards her in Fire and Blood is this passage right here:
"Prince Daemon fell in love with Laena, the singers would have us believe. Men of a more cynical nature bent believe the prince saw her as a way to check his own descent. Once seen as his brother's heir, he had fallen far down in the line of succession, and neither the greens nor the blacks had a place for him... but House Velaryon was powerful enough to defy both parties with impunity." (Fire and Blood, pg. 475)
Now, we are presented with two options:
a) True love, according to the singers.
b) Wanting children and power.
Where does the truth lie though? As with most things, I tend to believe the truth is neither with one side, nor completely with the other.
Do I think Daemon genuinely loved Laena? LOL, no! Daemon's own true love was the Iron Throne, and his beloved mistress was Dark Sister, the women that came along the way fell into third, fourth, and what have you places. Furthermore, I don't trust singers. It's just one useful thing I learned from Tyrion Lannister 😌 #thanksQueen - yes I called Tyrion Queen.
Now, do I think the ONLY thing Daemon wanted was just children and power and he was just using Laena? Hum... no, I don't think he was that uncaring or unfeeling.
Laena was said to be beautiful. She was rich, came from a powerful family. She was a dragonrider commanding the greatest Targaryen dragon alive at the time. If he couldn't have Rhaenyra and the Iron Throne, Laena Velaryon was definitely the second best thing beauty, power, and Targaryen wise. She was a good back up choice. You don’t have the Ferrari (Rhaenyra) but you still have a top grade Porsche (Laena).
For what is worth I do think the both of them were fond of each other, and liked each other well enough. And y'all no need to feel to sorry for Laena 😂😂 clearly her one true love was Vhagar, so Daemon came second at best... though I have some doubts given how the narrator tells us more of Rhaenyra and Laena's friendship than of Laena and Daemon's marriage added to the fact she was once described as not interested in boys - getting some Rhaena vibes here, not gonna lie unfortunately for her I think Rhaenyra just liked 🍆 too much .
As I have gone through before I definitely see Daemon as the sort of asshole who likes women with a sort of brownie point system of how much they can do for him - beauty, sons, power, worshiping him… I think Laena would have earned herself a LOT of brownie points for giving him the son he so desired and if she did, would he still be pursuing Rhaenyra?
It’s a definite possibility. Has I have mentioned before, I do think he would want to be close to her to get as much power as he could. Maybe secure himself a place at her Council one day. Besides being the queen’s father why not the Hand as well? But securing this power meant securing Rhaenyra’s affections.
Putting his son by Laena on the throne would be far too difficult since after Rhaenyra and her own sons (four people) came his nephews and niece (another four people). At this point Daemon was far too low on the succession to hope for that much and he had too many people to kill. Like it just wouldn’t work…
While Laenor dying and Rhaenyra becoming free might be tempting, I don’t think he would have gone that far for the throne as to kill Laena. Unlike Rhea (who he didn’t give 2 flying f:cks about), I do think Laena meant something to him as the mother of his children and someone he could enjoy himself around, so I can’t see him killing her to marry Rhaenyra. BUT I do see him wanting to replace Harwin eventually (likely after he secured one of two legitimate sons), and becoming Rhaenyra’s lover and right hand.
Let’s be really honest here, Laenor besides not being a true husband for Rhaenyra bedroom wise, was also not a true husband to Rhaenyra outside of the bedroom wise. It’s not like these two were bffs who worked out great everywhere BUT the bedroom. Coming from the man who believed (on paper) that Laenor was the father of the “Velaryon” princes himself - Septon Eustace - in six years of marriage they did not share a bed more than a dozen times aka 12 times. So that was the grand total of times the two of them were on the same bedroom together for six years giving us on average 2 times in the same bedroom per year. And outside of it, the two were only together for “formal occasions”.
Laenor didn’t help Rhaenyra to rule anything, and we have no base whatsoever to believe he was much present for “his sons” either. Like have all the headcanons and write all the fanfiction of them being bffs you like please, but don’t mistake them for the facts and the facts are that from what we are told it was Harwin (her lover) who played the role of husband in and out the bedroom as the two were always together. And what Rhaenyra did in canon after Laenor die was take a sh:t on his memory by remarrying almost immediately. And these are the facts.
Was Harwin Strong a more ambitious man, a more cunning one, he might have realised that his affair with Rhaenyra was a prime opportunity to achieve power. He didn’t seem to be this though, but you know who was? Daemon Targaryen, and this is an opportunity I don’t think he would pass up.
So yes, perhaps his enemies would believe him capable of the darkest deeds but Daemon is not black, he’s grey. I don’t think he would have gone that far (though he might me tempted at a certain point). But getting rid of Harwin this I think he would do without a second thought to have Rhaenyra’s affections (and all the power that came with it) and he would have jumped on the sept to marry her first moment anything happened to Laena. Like tier marks on the floor quick. And… getting rid of Harwin would be essencial because Rhaenyra might want to marry him if she was single, which would make his job of seducing her (again) a lot harder.
It’s clear Rhaenyra had no issues cheating on a man who didn’t love her or want her, but - here comes that 🍑 - for the men she did love, she seemed to be very faithful.
Bottom line, Harwin would have to go. Laena would stay.
So sorry for the delay, Queen ❤️ all the best to you 🥰

As I've become legally an adult, I'm 18... when looking at nsfw stuff the huge amount of teen category(also step family but sort of unrelated to main theme) really concerns and triggers me.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
So I'm basically a legally adult adolescent, if the word (still a)teen doesn't give it away already.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
So why am I legally an adult at 18 years old? It doesn't seem that logical??!
Tumblr media
How are other laws and or countries??
Currently and or back then??
Tumblr media
Huh, Interesting
Spain:in 1978: 21 to 18.
So my grandma married while being a minor (19) and pregnant 🙃 teen pregnancy 😬 (but my grandpa was her age so it wasn't that bad) Most probably they were unexperienced and had almost 0 knowledge about sex ed also given the time it was: 1971.
But wait, I've heard of it being even older somewhere , right?
Tumblr media
So it was 25 before it got to be 21.
Another place and time??
Tumblr media
So in the old Roman empire ir was 15 legally! But under the Roman law we're still technically considered adolescents until 25 , huh!
This later mentioned choices make way more sense (except the 15 yo stuff lol)!!
In fact there are some *current*laws in some countries where the (law/age of )consent has important things to consider like power abuse (work place, big age gaps,etc)to avoid it !!
This has been truly refreshing 😌 ✨ 💕
BIG DISCLAIMER!! Just because I'm now legally an adult doesn't mean I should forget to be careful, I'm still biologically developing (maturing into adulthood) around older people (especially when it comes to relationships,wether platonic,romantic or sexual)when power differences are involved!! (Big age gap or work place like a boss), it doesn't mean I shouldn't be careful around my equals just that I need to put extra care when dealing with those who aren't my equals, as in those who are ABOVE me AND UNDER me!! Just like I did before I was legally an adult. I was careful of those younger than me(minors) being aware I was the one supposed to be the responsible one and same with people older than me (minors and adults) did regarding to me, they were supposed to be the responsible ones, and so most of them were, and to those I'm hugely grateful.
Meaning back then when I wasn't an adult yet, exp.17, I was careful with 19yo (or +), and luckily they were accordingly responsible around me, the weight fell on them. But If I was around 15yo(or -) the weight fell on me and I was the responsible one,I had more "power" , I was more mentally and physically developed and had more experience.
So I also rarely was around them if not (almost)never because:
○We are in different stages of our development, we like different things and socialize differently, we talk about different stuff too, me being the older more mature stuff with my friends of my age.
(Yes I have a good *friendship* relationship with my siblings,cousins,nephews/nieces and friends wether younger or older)
○I'm not interested in people their age,they seem so immature( ugh I've really changed I think to myself every 2~3 years)and thus I'm not interested in their stuff.
I also simply don't feel attracted to them, their bodies and minds are different than mine, as in not personality but maturity, I'm not interested , period.
I call them and view them as kiddos, just like older ones see me as.
AlsoI'm able to feel there's a power imbalance already in our friendship so something more than that would be way more serious implications.
So would a older one do if I were exp.14 and they were 16, just apply that to adulthood( whether legally only or biological too) so I'm doing with my actual age,18:
○ I do feel attracted to those of my age (18~17-16???mehhh :/) and obviously those older than me [ofc with no family involved(younger or older) 😭 💀 why do I have to explain this honestly???] , for one I know I'm into ""milf""/""dilfs"" too lmaooo.
But they never made any moves towards my way or took advantage of me and the situation, which I appreciate and I'm grateful!!
○Older ones regardless of age have been careful towards me, it never was reciprocal and never asked me out. I simply was a kiddo with a precocious crush to them :).
They didn't take advantage of it,because they were the more mature ones, the ones who had to be responsible :)
So just summarized...basically be careful like you always were with older and younger ones(you also have to be the responsible one around the later) and now that you're legally an adult (have more rights and responsibilities by the law)simply be extra careful!!
