Why does holding up a mirror infuriate Blacksissies so much?

>>201844636He's so scenic
Cute
>>201844550>>201844623Greencunts keep proving how pathetic they are. You care way too much about the Team Black actors and their preferences. It's the only way for you to cope.
Reminder that Daemon was also gay/bi and they cut it but left in a few scenes that show crumbs of it if you pay attention. I bet George put his foot down, Daemon is his favorite character.
>>201844621Yes, yes, well coronated, Team Green. Well coronated, Team Green. HOWEVER
>>201844742>no Phia gfI syffer
>>201844750I hate this dyke cunt's face. I just want to punch it.
>>201844746Blackchad here, I don't give a fuck about Daemon, he's no longer TB.
my theory is that blackcels deep down know they support a usurper and they act agressively to compensate and to supress their guilt
>>201844746>Reminder that Daemon was also gay/bi and they cut itthen explain this
>>201844743>Posts 2 kings that disavowed their whore mother and never acknowledged her as QueenLol, lmao even
If you think about it, in the end, this show is really about a competition to be the most disabled.
>>201844787>>201844807Remember that Rhaenyra will always be remembered as an 'Usurper' and the 'Whore of Dragonstone'. A fitting legacy.
Will anything interesting happen this week?

>>201844942Is that guy related to Jeyne Arryn?
>>201844960kys greencunt
>>201844847they will in the next episode
Wasn't the new episode aired at some con (or whatever that's called)? How did they manage to not get it leaked?
>>201844843No but it will have dragons at least.
>>201844862Your post is retarded though. Rhaenyra & Aegon are both of the same succession line. It would make sense if Aegon III inherited over Jaehaerys (if he wasn't dead), but Aegon III was LITERALLY the closest descendant and heir of Aegon II. He doesn't inherit because he is part of the black faction, he inherits because he is Aegon II's heir.Again I'll give Aemond as an example. Say he survives the Battle of God's Eye. He'd have automatically inherited over Aegon II's death and absolutely continued the war. And if Daemon survived, he'd have inherited over Aegon III. It has nothing to do with Black or Green at that point.
>>201844959Just because I'm team black and and my preferred pronouns are they/them doesn't mean I'm from discord
Who would you choose as your dragon rider?
>>201844924Viserys would support great something grandma's claim, he's a weirdo but the's not a self flagellating weirdo who likes getting spat on by moustached ladies unlike some other UNGRATEFUL descendants of Rhaenyra running around during the close of the 3rd century AC
>>201845002What about the BBCs in ur ass? Ur not certified Black guy like the rest of us if you've not taken at least 20 in ur life.
>>201844987Yes, and it did leak in text form, so we know roughly everything that happens in the episode. Presumably it was forbidden to film the screen.
>>201845007Ramsay Bolten riding a sick dragon that coughs and hacks up blood/fire/bile
>>201845002KYS greenfag
>>201845007Falkor. He seems the most aggressive.
>>201845000Nta and holy fuck you don't seem to get it. He doesn't "inherit", he is put on the throne by the people backing him as their current claimant since he is Rhaenyra's son. There is not some objective law that everyone checks and decides who "inherits" from whom, in the middle of a civil war you back your own claimant and treat them as the rightful ruler by whatever logic they're using and if they die you keep going with their heir whoever that is, assuming it's feasible. No one in those armies gave a flying fuck about the heir of Aegon II, they were going to tear Aegon II off the throne and put Rhaenyra or failing that, her heir, on said throne. If no one killed Aegon II and the Lads took the city by force do you think they would have let Aegon II be king? Fucks sake they were literally doing this to get rid of him and put Rhaenyra/other Black claimant on the throne.
If you were responsible for making a show about the Blackfyre Rebellion how would you ruin it with your own self insert to fit in with HBO writer culture?I would turn Fireball from a bitter old man into an bratty redhead twink who would have a secret crush on Dareon and that's why he sent his wife away and wanted to join the Kingsguard. Then after getting denied he would edge Daemon to the rebellion out of spite.
Reminder that rhaenyra and aegon have not had a single conversation with each other throughout this entire series. Literally not one.
Well, what happened?
>>201845230Neither did Viserys and any of Alicent's sons, iirc
>>201845234>fire is the championwhat no dragons does to a motherfucker
>>201845234And*ls
>>201845000You're getting hung up on the term blacks. Aegon is the black claimant because he's the claimant Rhaenyra's supporters are fighting for, it's just a convenient term because all pretenders belong to the same house but still have to be differentiated somehow and is neither that novel a concept nor particularly intricate so I struggle to say why you struggle so with it. Would you prefer the term Rhaenyran claimant, Dragonstone pretender?Compare the dance to the wars of the roses Richard duke of York, the Yorkist claimant, is killed but his supporters recognize his son Edward as king, he becomes the Yorkist claimant and within a year of Richard's death that is reality.And years later Henry Tudor takes up the Lancastrian mantle and sees off the house of York for good.

>>201845234Daeron's weak, manlet and craven genes is what happened. Daemon's CHAD blood would never.

>>201844927>Arbor goldso someone in this artwork is lying
Why was Gwayne being such a dick to Alicent exactly?I get that he's shellshocked from the war now but his anger was explicit at her. I don't buy that it's just him being upset Alicent is the preffered child because that would have been the case before. What's his problem with her now
What is the new excuse shills have for a season with 8 episodes where over half of the episodes are filler?
>>201845458wwa, chadfyrebros?
>>201845269the show's unwillingness to explore character dynamics is literally hurting it.>helaena and aegon have had a singular conversation with each other>rhaenyra hasn't had a single conversation with any of her half-siblings (calling for alicent to cut out aemond's eye does not count)>daemon hasn't interacted with his daughters since they got recasted post time skip>cole hasn't had a one on one convo with rhaenyra so we can get a sense of exactly what happened in between him getting spurned and present day that made him hate her to the point where he wants to murder her
>>201845509He hit it and quit it
>>201845557shut the fuck up Daemon has to go through a clip show of stuff that happened to him last season
>>201845534it's all that in addition to unfamiliarity i feel like. they're more like cousins than siblings because they were fostered in different places.
>>201845557Yet they resurrected Viserys so he could have the same conversation with Daemon as he did last season.
>>201845557>>cole hasn't had a one on one convo with rhaenyra so we can get a sense of exactly what happened in between him getting spurned and present day that made him hate her to the point where he wants to murder hernobody wants this
>>201844942>>201844976>several caraxes neck edits in circulation>0 jeyne arryn neck edits in circulationWhy are we here? Just to suffer?
>>201845610I do.
>>201845610the way they have it right now just makes him look like an incel. there's got to be more there.
>>201845557>getting spurned >hate her to the point where he wants to murder herthat's literally it
I wish I knew proper photoshop, I'd make kino Caraxes neck edits
>>201845657Well yeah you kinda have to want the other faction leader to die when you joined the other side.
>>201845534I mean she's part of why he has to fight a war and almost get burned to death by dragons.
>>201845411next episode probablygod that will be awful that troon can't act for shit
>>201845509>tfw you realize that Shiera Seastar choose bloodraven over bittersteel because after having fifteen consecutive iterations of tour de westeros ridden on her she was resorting to such weird shit to get off that generic bigstrong mandude Aegor Rivers didn't do anything for her anymore
>>201845107This is not what happens though. The war ends with Corlys opening the gates, saying 'The King is dead, long live the King' (meaning Aegon III). Aegon III inherits automatically. Then a marriage ceremony is done between Aegon III and Aegon II's daughter that brokers peace between the two factions and the war ends. Aegon III is literally an automatic heir, nobody appoints him to anything.
>>201845704How many troons do we have alreadySome of them have a lot of screentime also
>>201845748And who exactly is it the gates are being opened for?
>>201845673Same. I don't know how to do it but I have this image in my head of caraxes with a giant human neck and jeyne arryn's head on the end of it that I'd name Arrynaxes.jpgAnyway, here's a vaemond for your thoughts
>>201845746>your dick might be big Aegon but I’m sorry, brynden has magical shit that’s beyond kink haha
>name is literally Emma>surprised when someone uses the she/her pronouns
>>201845779What does that have to do with anything? If Aegon II had a son that was still alive, the war would have continued. He doesn't so his closest living relative inherits. With Rhaenyra and Aegon II dead and pretty much all the other claimants dead, there's nothing to fight for. Why are blackcels such fucking retards? You can't follow simple story conclusion.
So let me get this straight. House Targaryen self destructed because one butthurt faggot couldn't get over being teased as a kid?
>>201845881I think it was mostly Viserys' stupidity than anything. Even if Aemond didn't kill that little fag, the war would have been on regardless. Aegon II would be forced to take the crown and Rhaenyra will seethe and start a war about it.
>>201845881House Targaryen self destructed because a fucking dornish cunt was butthurt
>>201845856The gates are being opened for dudes who want to kill Aegon II and his supporters and put Aegon III on the throne because they think his mom was queen you actual autist.
>>201844924>all the queers>all the nogs>female empowermentCouldn't be more blatant. Blacks = democrats.
>>201845748>Aegon III inherits automatically.oh my fucking godthe lads were about to siege the place and kick him off the throne and put aegon iii there, they killed aegon ii and opened the gates to them to avoid that and because corlys and others were already against aegon ii
>>201845852
>>201845881He was only in a position to do bad things after the house split. The real reason they collapsed was that rhaenyra was a whore that couldn't keep it to the marital bed and that was also somehow so repulsive that her gay husband chose poverty and exile over *one* act of sex with her.
>>201845813*aegor
>>201845939truthpilled
>>201845969fuckin lmao
>>201844550she's younger than me? She looks 40
>>201845947Didn't one of the writers or actresses literally say that alicent was a 'women for trump' analogue during season 1?
>>201845925All he wanted to do was paint miniatures, but he caused his house's downfall
This greenfag is denser than a neutron star, the stupidity put on display here is mind boggling and genuinely exasperating.For that reason I'm out.
adult rhaenyra's voice is too deep and muddledshe talks like a tranny with a bunch of dicks in her mouth
Emma D'Arcy is boring. She has zero screen presence.
>>201845856You still do not fucking get this. OK imagine the greens have a bunch of adult women with dragons who could easily win the war by themselves however all the males on the green side die, meanwhile the blacks still have a couple of Rhaenyra's small kids and Daemon without Caraxes. Do you think, in this scenario, that the greens go, oh no, we have no more male claimants, that means Rhaenyra's sons or Daemon inherit, guess we'll surrender now?
HE DARES TO SUMMON MEWITH HASTE
>>201845969based Romanian
Let's be honest, if Emma D'Arcy wasn't a "troon" then she would have nothing going for her. Being "enby" is an adopt-an-identity cope for boring people.
>>201846030Yeah it's always funny when you get one who thinks both sides of a civil war are fighting out of a specific kind of legal autism instead of what actual normal people do.
>>201846115I miss them sm
>>201845881That didn't even happen in the book so really it was just a power play.
>>201846024
>>201845945The gates are being opened because there was literally no point to continue the war at that point. The only reason was because Aegon II was so bitter & pissed off at everything he wanted to annihilate anything related to Rhaenyra until she had nothing left. The war at that point was fought for his own vanity and nothing else and obviously his Council wanted nothing of that. Aegon himself, given how the book describes it, knew he was going to be assasinated. He probably wanted it given how broken and bitter he was from everything. He regretted everything he was forced to do but at that point it was too late to go back. So his only choice was to let them kill him since he's never going to be content. At least that's how I read it.>>201845959Siege it with what, you fucking retard? Their cocks? They had literally zero chance of taking KL anytime soon. Zero dragons to do anything and all the wealth and power was centered in Green hands. The reason the war ended was because Corlys and Larys said 'fuck it, this is literally retarded and pointless since Aegon III inherits anyway''.>>201846068Yes. Absolutely. Without claimants the Greens have nothing to fight for. They can't put a Hightower on the throne. Then in such a scenario Daemon (but he'd probably be passed because he has zero supporters) or Aegon III would inherit and some compromise would be reached. You have to remember that the Greens absolutely won in terms of power. Aegon's III Council was literally majority Green, his marriage was to Aegon III's daughter. In reality the Greens literally held all the power at the end. Cregan was the only powerful Black supporter left alive and he literally just fucked off North.
Do we get to see our boy Vermithor and our cute babygirl Silverwing tonight?
>>201845881no, it was because an unqualified femoid wanted to rule westeros and her retarded father said okay.
>>201845881Daemon caused the Dance by being shitty brother and not doing his duty. If he had sons with Rhea then Viserys wouldn't remarry.
>>201846199>They had literally zero chance of taking KL anytime soon.Everyone including Aegon II was scared shitless of them and Aegon II wanted to surrender, they absolutely would have taken it.>Yes. Absolutely. Without claimants the Greens have nothing to fight for. Again if they had women claimants and the ability to win they would have kept the war going instead of surrendering like morons, if you don't get this this is fucking pointless.
>>201845969HAAHAHAHHAHAHAHAThis is why semantic autism is so fucking stupid

>>201845969>>201845394Based romaniakhstani
>>201846339She somehow cared more about that than Luke's death, I just can't buy her as a character.
>>201845969Why do retarded English speakers not understand how foreign languages work? And how they translate? It’s precisely shit like this that makes me hate ‘they/them’ people. They/them can be used to refer to literally ANYTHING. He/she is a matter of conversational ease. She’s clearly a feminine figure, and she can’t avoid it.
Preston....please....Just a crumb of the video
>>201844621
>>201846243Yes, apparently they get claimed and Aemond chases a drunk Ulf on Silverwing to Dragonstone and has to retreat.
>>201845306Dornish blood is poison for your lineage
>>201846398she probably subconsciously realizes jace and luke are the result of infidelity and thus disgusting abominations not worthy of life. she has 2 new children who are actually worthy of life.
>>201845612Didn't realize they used practical effects in her other movie
>>201846457the 2 new children are also bastards because laenor was still alive when she married daemon also it was a valyrian marriage which may not count
>>201846457kek i believe it
>>201846199>least autistic greenfagin universe the war is between whores and incels and in the fanbase it's between queers and autists
>>201846398No one cares about jaehaerys. Aegon cried for a little bit. Alicent didn’t care. Helaena was heartbroken and then back to her usual self. Ratcatchers were mentioned more.
>>201846499Yes but Rhaenyra cares enough to chase away her best military asset over it.
>>201844743Remember...they too are illegitimate bastards!
>>201844924>you now remember that viserys had a miserable life trying desperately to scrounge food and shelter while being a teenage dad to his infant sister, enduring humiliation after humiliation that drove him to insanity and his cunt whore sister repaid his kindness by letting her chad boyfriend dump molten gold on his head
>>201846312>Everyone including Aegon II was scared shitless of them and Aegon II wanted to surrender, they absolutely would have taken it.Fucking kek, no. Aegon II was adamnant to fight it to the bitter end. The others in the council didn't want the city to get sacked again. Again, Aegon II could have easily escaped and continued the war from elsewhere. The problem wasn't that in itself, it was the fact that the Council was it as pointless. Even if he wins, the scenario ends the same - Aegon II is a crippled king who can produce no additional heirs and impossible to control. Aegon III is a little kid they can mould however they wish. To the Greens that was the better alternative. Again, Aegon II is said to have expected his death. >Again if they had women claimants and the ability to win they would have kept the war going instead of surrendering like moronsJaehaera doesn't inherit over Aegon III though. In fact if they went that way that'd be a reverse uno on the Aegon/Rhaenyra situation which wouldn't paint them very well. The Hightowers and their allies also had zero reason to continue the war. With Aegon II dead and Jaehaera marriage to Aegon III, they were set. They also kept the entire power in KL's and Aegon III was nothing more than their puppet. Generally speaking they won. Why would they continue a pointless war?
>>201846534But at least they aren't niggers.
Why are blackfags seething about something simple as thatw? I don't see what's wrong with Aegon and Aemond fans who ship them with Baela.
>>201846520I mean it was dumb anyways. Bad optics done behind her back.
>>201846534>rhaenyra's strong boys are illegitimate and she knows it, yet she still wants to put them on the throne>daemon's sons with rhaenyra are illegitimate because laenor is still alive and he knows it, yet he still wants to put them on the throne>both daemon and rhaenyra are knowingly committing high treasonhow the fuck can anyone root for these people?
>>201846534condal's biggest mistake>we can't kill the gay bcuz trope!!!>*destroys lore to avoid it*pathetic
>>201846499
>>201846612why are you searching for twitter posts that are most likely made by literal children and posting them here? get a hobby nigga.
>>201846612why are they shipping anyone with that ugly big nosed bitch though? i try and pretend she doesn't exist
>>201846612How can they ship that ugly bitch with greenchads
>>201846597Read the book.>King Aegon II would soon stand naked before his enemies, all of the king’s men knew. Bloody Ben Blackwood, Kermit Tully, Sabitha Frey, and their brothers-in-victory were preparing to resume their advance upon the city, and only a few days behind them came Lord Cregan Stark and his northmen. The Braavosi fleet carrying the Arryn host had departed Gulltown and was sailing toward the Gullet, where only young Alyn Velaryon stood in its way…and the loyalty of Driftmark could not be relied upon.>“Your Grace,” the Sea Snake said, when the rump of the once proud green council had assembled, “you must surrender. The city cannot endure another sack. Save your people and save yourself. If you abdicate in favor of Prince Aegon, he will allow you to take the black and live out your life with honor on the Wall.”>“Will he?” King Aegon said. Munkun tells us he sounded hopeful.>His mother entertained no such hope. “You fed his mother to your dragon,” she reminded her son. “The boy saw it all.”>The king turned to her desperately. “What would you have me do?”>“You have hostages,” the Queen Dowager replied. “Cut off one of the boy’s ears and send it to Lord Tully. Warn them he will lose another part for every mile they advance.”>“Yes,” Aegon II said. “Good. It shall be done.” He summoned Ser Alfred Broome, who had served him so well on Dragonstone. “Go and see to it, ser.” As the knight took his leave, the king turned to Corlys Velaryon. “Tell your bastard to fight bravely, my lord. If he fails me, if any of these Braavosi pass the Gullet, your precious Lady Baela shall lose some parts as well.”>Jaehaera doesn't inherit over Aegon III though.Cregan at one point thought greens might do this and keep fighting. It was definitely not seen as out of the question and getting Aegon II's supporters to stand down took some time and threats, negotiations etc.
>>201846635Aegon I had 2 wives. Rhaenyra is allowed to have 2 husbands. Simple as.
>>201846612Team Green fans on twitter are embarrassing and too woke and gay for my liking, nothing compared to those who post here. She's so fucking ugly too.
>>201846635Greens know they're usurping the throne and lying about Viserys' last wish so how can you root for them?

>>201846612Why are you greenfags obsessed with twitter screenshots?
>>201846635>>201846638
>>201846732Fucking based.
>>201846753It was not just a wish but a command. A king can choose his heir and he did it, no one has the right to object, unless they are usurping.
>>201846753your image is literally the opposute
>>201845969Blacksissies, what's the gameplan here? Should we accuse GreenCHUDs of being reddit filth like ourselves again?

>>201846534and driftmark goes to corlys' bastards, whom he falsely has legitimized (by Rhaenyra) as Laenor's sons!
>>201844743>we're pretending this make believe story is real, stop making fun of the real life weirdos No
>>201846725>Read the book.Munkun would have zero idea what Aegon's behavior would be. He wasn't even there. And aside from Mushroom his stories are said to have been the most inaccurate by far.

Viserion is the superior dragon
Reminder that Emma mogs Tom Reminder that Rhaenyra mogs Aegon
>>201846989that would be Grey Ghost.
>>201846993
>>201845881>Being this retardedIt's 100% Viserys fault. He should've done more to unite his family. He didn't. He shouldn't of taken on so many people in his small council that were clearly against Rhaenyra. He probably should've forced Rhaenyra to marry a Lannister and he wed the Sea Snake's daughter himself. He should've been a better father to his sons. He probably should've been a better father to Rhaenyra by steering her away from being a whore. He could've fixed everything by simply saying Rhaenyra is my heir......till a son is born to me. Rhaenyra wouldn't have any support for herself without Viserys. Everyone on her side basically only fights for her because the love and respect they bore for her father not for her, she's done absolutely nothing to earn it.
>>201846030Good, fuck off faggot
I hope the E8 preview spoils if there's a battle or not, all the contradictory leaks are annoying.
>>201846030every single black post is pure projection its absolutely wild to witness. whether it be calling greens reddit, calling greens faggots, calling greens usurpers. literally just a complete inversion of reality. I cannot imagine what its like to view the world through your eyes.
>>201846199Judging from the replies, i don't know why you use logic or reasoning with these """people""". Blacksissies are incapable of critical thinking and care not for the books.
>>201847074They used all the budget in episode 7 and the biggest scene that will happen on episode 8 will be Rhaena claiming her dragon, they said he's the most beautiful dragon, you will see him on episode 7 too.
>>201847141But Sheepstealer isn't supposed to be pretty
Maybe this is a dumb question but why do the greens and blacks care about Harrenhall? It's not well maintained or well stocked. If the Tullys are the actual unifying force of the Riverlands, and none of them live in Harrenhall, what's the point of this bombed out castle that's falling apart?

>>201846635Team Blackjeets only root for them because they/them see themselves in Team Black.
>>201847208the parallels!
>>201846968Yes, explain to me how he would know Aegon's 'hopeful' answer when he wasn't even there? On whose authority is he speaking here? Furthermore that doesn't really mesh with Eustace (WHO WAS ACTUALLY THERE) narrates that Aegon II sensed his death coming and embraced it willingly. It really doesn't even make sense. If Aegon II wanted, he'd have just escaped KL and set up his base anywhere else and just kill the Vale/Northern army via attrition. The most likely scenario is that Aegon II was just tired of fighting and wanted to die.
>>201847213because most people in the realm think harrenhal is the most important position but the riverlords know better because they actually live there BUT in the book it was quite important as Daemon used it as staging ground for the blacks and he baited the greens to their doom, he basically won the war by taking harrenhal for the blacks.

>>201847328I want to rape her
>>201845852>>201845969>Emma D'Arcy is 32At what age do people generally grow out of this pronoun shit?
>>201847259I mean the obvious reason he would have sensed his death is that his enemies were closing in and he had just had spelled out for him that surrendering wouldn't save him, and the hostage plan was a silly hail mary. Also Eustace even had a much higher estimate for the size of the Black armies approaching so lol.
>>201847351Aegon.....
>>201847208>Viserys was dumb to not trust Daemon
>>201847351to be fair.......
>>201847213Nobody in the writing team has any idea of how war is waged so they just don't explain it to Aegon, who's dumb and needs telling along with the audience.Harrenhal is in a strategic position south of the Trident, any army from the Riverlands, North, Westerlands (if they want to go to the Riverlands first) or the Vale of Arryn that wants to march to KL has to go through Harrenhal.By taking Harrenhal, Daemon opened up the path to KL and it's a castle large enough where you can gather a massive army, with plenty of surrounding farmlands to feed such an army.It's probably the best positioned castle in the Seven Kingdoms, when talking about control over a region.
>>201847273Sure but like...shouldn't these be the most informed people in the realm? Shouldn't they know this?
>>201844550Mad how im meant to believe this is a bloke
>>201847356The english language is the problem
>>201847473I mean is hard to know the state of a castle when you're miles and miles away, the greens should have a better insight for sure because of Larys but still, in the end it was incredible important but for different reasons.
>>201847259There's a theory that Aegon II virtually poisoned himselfhttps://www.reddit.com/r/asoiaf/comments/ymbdsf/spoilers_extended_theory_on_aegon_ii/And I think it's a viable one. Either way at that point Aegon II just wanted to die, whether by someone else's hand or his own.>>201847213Harrenhal is actually vital and I don't know why the show treated Aegon as stupid for taking it back. It literally can cut off the entire half of the realm and is a great choking point for the Kingsroad. The Blacks basically won the war by controlling Harrenhal. It is also the largest castle capable of amassing huge armies.>>201847389The problem with this idea is that if Aegon II wanted to fight, he could have easily done so. He could have just escaped KL again, KL would have been sacked and nothing would change. The Greens would literally be stuck starving and dying far away from home. In terms of simple resources, the castle was worthless at that point, it was simply a legitimacy issue. And Aegon's supporters bases were in the South were the richest castles and most prosperous lands were. The fact that he didn't leads to me to believe he was just sick of it. Everything else suggests as such - he was depressed, bitter, had no hope in life and was in constant pain. There was no life of him even if he emerged victoriuos.
>>201847328she needs to die
>>201847399>>201847440Who's the actress anyway?
>>201847516>He could have just escaped KL again,He could barely move and the place was soon to be sieged, he would have been caught and that's if one of his people didn't immediately betray him. >The fact that he didn't leads to me to believe he was just sick of it. Pure headcanon as again it would have been extremely unlikely for someone in his condition to escape safely and not be betrayed while doing so, and also all sources generally agree on the armies closing in and the Black armies did arrive there in force, the surrender convo is the most obvious thing that would have broken his last hopes if he was in fact depressed or expecting death.
>>201847458The show keeps trying to make Aegon look incompetent by virtually having him suggest all the right moves while everyone ignores and laughs at him. Make it make sense, writers.

i just can't believe they casted two black dykes as baela and rhaena. like 2/2. they had to be looking specifically for that.
JonSnowCHADs.......The battle is over....we have won!

>>201847655>>201847702>>201847760Previous thread was about Tom vs Emma. This thread is going to be Ewan vs Matt. What's next?
>>201847458>>201847516Okay I get that it's a great staging ground and well positioned geographically for a standing army.But this is the dance of dragons. Isn't the whole legacy of this place that it stood no chance defending against dragons?Wouldn't marshaling the Riverlands and its large population and fertile lands through a strategic alliance with the Tullys be a more worthwhile endeavor? Especially if food is an issue
>>201847815i had hope for this to be good during season one of hotd, but i absolutely don't now. im just so demoralized.
>>201847818Is Ewan a faggot? He really seems like one. The absolute state.
>>201847760the smith pic is clearly from a play, the ewan pic is him willingly dressing like that so i think second one is objectively more cringe
>>201847815no? it was cancelled
>>201847600>He could barely move and the place was soon to be sieged, he would have been caught and that's if one of his people didn't immediately betray him.He was being carried anyway. He didn't have to move. Armies don't run anyway.>Pure headcanon as again it would have been extremely unlikely for someone in his condition to escape safely and not be betrayed while doing so,Betrayed by who? He controlled everyone in KL. The reason why he was assassinated and not captured (whether by his own hand or Corlys or Larys or whoever) is that it was done under the table with no widespread support.>>201847686>That's completely pointless when you have no soldiers,Based on what? Casterly Rock, Oldtown and Storm's End are virtually impregnable. And they could raise more armies since they are literally the most populous regions in ASOIAF. The North wouldn't have the supplies for an extended campaign, let alone siege these massive castles. The Greens also have money out their ass for Essosi mercenaries. Generally speaking if GRRM didn't just want the war to end a certain way (because he already had the Dance major events set in stone prior to writing F&B), the Greens could have easily prolonged the war and won a complete victory.
>>201847654From Harrenhal you have control over the Kingsroad, River road and High road. Any army marching through those roads is in Harrenhal's zone of control.Add to that that it is a massive and defensible castle, it's biggest weakness being how big it is, which makes it expensieve to mantain and to get enough soldiers to defend it.>>201847686Technically the Velaryon fleet was with Aegon at this point, but the Stormlands really underperformed.
>>201847852no he's an actor. easy mistake to make, really
>>201847815It got cancelled.
>>201847803They were at the trans parade yesterday.
>>201847852He does seem rather zesty in interviews.
>>201847875>Any army marching through those roads is in Harrenhal's zone of control.but that's Darrys zone of control anon, it's the closest to the area
>>201847875Why are the twins considered important anyway? The big road is right over there
>>201847896you're faggier for knowing that
>>201847914Someone here was spamming the threads with their pictures on the trans parade.
>>201847844>But this is the dance of dragons. Isn't the whole legacy of this place that it stood no chance defending against dragons?But now both sides have dragons and both sides don't want to risk their dragons against each other, so armies matter.>Wouldn't marshaling the Riverlands and its large population and fertile lands through a strategic alliance with the Tullys be a more worthwhile endeavor? Especially if food is an issueBetter a Tyrell alliance, more knights, more footsoldiers, more food, more everything
>>201847867Anon, seriously? Who would even have done that without immediately selling him out or one of the people who hated him selling them both out the moment they were out of KL? His position was extremely dodgy and everyone knew there was no hope, if he tried to get someone to cart him out of there he was done for.
>>201847909>Why are the twins considered important anyway?Robb wanted to split his army to surprise Tywin, it's not that important in the Dance, although you could argue having access to the twins means you avoid the Ruby ford becoming a natural choke point
>>201847867>And they could raise more armies since they are literally the most populous regions in ASOIAFThey already raised their armies and failed.>The North wouldn't have the supplies for an extended campaignThey can plunder the reach.
>>201847957>Better a Tyrell alliance, more knights, more footsoldiers, more food, more everythingI dont think one precludes you from the other
>>201847906Not as defensible though, easier to siege or storm Darry than to take Harrenhal. Assuming it's well defended, since most times the Harrenhal garrison is 50 guys squatting in one of the towers.
>>201844623Bro i swear there are beautiful black/mulatto girls out there, why pick those two to play daemons daughters?Furthermore, why scrap nettles so we are forced to get more screentime with the ugliest of the two
>>201848041Aren't they too black as well?Of their four grandparents only one is black.
>>201847957>But now both sides have dragons and both sides don't want to risk their dragons against each other, so armies matter.The sense I've gotten from the show is that's only true for one side
>>201848037Well lots of castles are easier to take than Darry, none of them are next door to the biggest choke point in Westeros though so they don't matter as much
>>201844954Kek
>>201848096I thought it was implied daemon isn’t the father? Didn’t he have trouble getting it up in the first episode?
>>201847967>Who would even have done that without immediately selling him out or one of the people who hated him selling them both out the moment they were out of KL?We're talking about Aegon II's thoughts here, not what who would have done. He had loyal supporters. Only Corlys and Larys were shakeable, but they wouldn't raise their hand unless they could take out Aegon's supporters. That's why he was assassinated.>>201848013>They already raised their armies and failed.This is such stupidity. It's like saying Robb would have won the war because he defeated the Lannister armies. They can always raise more just as Tywin did numerous times.>They can plunder the reach.How? Which what? Do you even have any idea what supply and logistics are? They'd be dead meat in the Reach. Again, the reason why the war ended in a stalemate is because George wanted to arrange it so it matched what he wrote prehistorically. Not because it made any sense.
>>201848106Doesn't Gregor take Darry twice with just his guys?>>201848103And funnily enough the side risking them is the one with the least amount of dragons.
>>201848142Fortune favors the bold I suppose
>>201848123>This is such stupidity. It's like saying Robb would have won the war because he defeated the Lannister armies. They can always raise more just as Tywin did numerous times.Not really, he defeated 3 different small armies during that war on the other hand the lannister, green reach and baratheons lost all their hosts during the conflict.
>>201847328i can fix her
Gwayne is my husband
>>201847516>> He could have just escaped KL again, KL would have been sacked and nothing would change. The Greens would literally be stuck starving and dying far away from homeAnd go where Oldtown? The Reach Lords mostly sat out of the conflict. At that point all Aegon II had left was the Hightowers. The Tyrells would eventually jump into the conflict and raise its banners against the Hightowers to take their valuable lands for themselves. Aegon had no moves left after Boros died and he knew it
>>201844621>>201846415>>201844636It just dawned on me that this guy looks just like AJ, I can't unsee it now
>>201848258Gwayne singlehandedly makes all of the Cole scenes worth watching. Amazing what adding someone with actual charisma to the cast does for certain plotlines
>>201845534He actually was kind of nice when you consider the shellshock, alicent asks about daeron and realizes he is her only functional child, she says its cause he is the only one she did not raise, but her brother comforts her, telling her its kings landing what fucked her kids up
>>201848271>The Tyrells would eventually jump into the conflict and raise its banners against the Hightowers to take their valuable lands for themselvesI would worry more about the Redwynes, they had the power and a grudge.
>>201847516>Coping this hard
>>201848325Seethe blacktranny your whore will not get justice
>>201848142I meant to say easier to take than Harrenhal, the point isn't so much that Darry is a strong castle, just that it can be used as a staging port to control the crossing with a large army
>>201848281Even the fucking names match, kek>AJ=Anthony Jr=Aegon JrWe need some mashup memes of the two, stat
Rhaenyra >>>>>>≥>>>><<< USURPER manlet Aegon If you disagree you just prove that you are a homosexual and you want to fuck Aegon.
>>201845534He starts their convo angry because he's shellshocked, it's her war and sibling jealousy. Imo you can see him change his tone when she asks about Daeron. It's a similar change like last week where Alicent reprimands Criston until he brings up "Their armor melted"
>>201848142Gregor can just step over castle walls as easily as Remus stepping over the Murus Romuli
>>201848120That makes no sense nigga
>>201847867Armies have vanguards, scouts, and light cavarly.All of which move faster than a cripple being carried around in a palanquin or wheeled around in a wheelhouse.
>>201848120He has trouble getting it up with his bronze bitch ex wife, but she has no problem with dragon riders
>>201848373>used as a staging port to control the crossing with a large armyHarrenhal beats it there though, more people fit inside of it than inside of Darry, it very likely has much larger storages and warehouse to keep the army's food as well.Darry probably was the most important defensible castle before Harren came along though.Looking at the map it's right by Saltpans and Lord Harroway's Town and not that far from Maidenpool, and thinking of the sigil of house Darry, they probably fed and protected the three towns and reaped the benefits of that.
>>201848096I agree, laenor and laena were pretty well casted, they look like a fair mix between the velaryons and targs, but daemons daughters should be a bit lighter methinks
>>201848120He's a notorious pussyhound.
>>201848463>the little shit on the bottom right neglects his children to rule the Kingdom and triggers his son into ruining the realm even worse than Rhaenyra

>>201848808Well, yes. He's a killer and raper, not some sort of wall acrobat who leaps over walls while there's still unkilled and unraped people within their confines-
Isn't it crazy Romulus murdered his brother for a joke?
