Chapters: 7/7 Fandom: House of the Dragon (TV) Relationships: Alicent Hightower/Rhaenyra Targaryen, Alicent Hightower & Helaena Targaryen Summary:

Drip, drip, drip.

The sound of rain hitting the windows of the Great Sept comforts her. Three candles are lit: her mother, her late husband, Lucerys. The candles are burning and burning and burning, but the heat of the fire does not reach her. She has not felt warm since Aemond’s return from Storm’s End.

Or: Following Alicent through her journey of disillusionment and her exploration of sexuality, gender and motherhood. Canon compliant for season 2 (chapter 1), after which the story continues as a speculative work for seasons 3 and 4 based on Fire & Blood.

aka: Alicent has a bad few weeks (read: years), but she gets to kiss a girl (Rhaenyra), so her life gets better. Or does it?

IT’S COMPLETE! I actually did it, I’m so happy <3

For those that have followed along and left kudos or comments, thank you so much it means the world to me. I hope you enjoy chapter 7 and please let me know your thoughts! The alternate happier ending will (probably) be posted next week.

It's funny how a silly fictional character can come into your life and then take over your entire brain chemistry

vampire Rhaenyra this, vampire Rhaenyra that, WHAT ABOUT VAMPIRE ALICENT GUYS !?

[I.D The image depicts Vampire Alicent and human Rhaenyra in a sort of embrace. Alicent, behind Rhaenyra, is drinking blood from her shoulder, with blood dripping down to Rhaenyra's collarbone. Alicent's left hand, adorned with a red jewelled ring on her pinkie, rests on Rhaenyra's opposite shoulder. Both are dressed in medieval-style gowns. Rhaenyra's dress is red with silver embroidery details on her collar and sleeve. Whereas Alicents dress is blue with what we can see small golden embroidery on her sleeve. Rhaenyra leans forward slightly, her white hair flowing to the side as she rests one hand on a table, where a matching green jewelled ring is visible on her pinkie. Their right hands are intertwined on Rhaenyra's waist, showcasing matching gold bands on their ring finger, while Rhaenyra wears a silver ring on her index finger, engraved with the letter "T." The scene is set against a dark, moody background, with soft lighting illuminating the figures from the bottom left. END I.D.]

Fire and blood is just not good enough for me to care about tiny inaccuracies

i’ll be a book purist for the main series i’m a real feastriot because it’s a 10/10 to me. but I just don’t have it in me to be a shooter for fire and blood. It barely clears a 4/10 outside of certain moments and it’s just so shallow. grrm at his least creative and most misogynistic

do you have any thoughts on what westeros would have looked like if rhaegar had been married to cersei?

no this is such an interesting question. all credit to oomfie @dwellordream and the sexy genius braintrust at iatc for discussing this earlier but like in summary. cersei and jaime initially fall out because she does genuinely like rhaegar, but that doesn’t last forever because she eventually still gets disillusioned because of rhaegar’s whole disaffection prophecy thing. i don’t think rhaegar runs off with anyone if he has no problem having kids in his first marriage. rebellion is probably between paranoid Aerys and Rhaegar-Tywin front, but they probably also fall out once tywin realizes rhaegar is not as easy of a puppet as his crazy dad. I think Cersei still eventually tries to have him killed, but because he is not an alcoholic manchild it’s significantly more difficult and she maybe fails at that maybe succeeds but looks incredibly suspicious. so they have a second smaller war about which of those kids are going to be the heir.

most importantly visenya ii targaryen is born bright golden blonde with a quick sword arm a quicker smile and a seething hatred of crossbowmen and everyone in the riverlands feels a shiver run down their spine for reasons they cannot explain but will come to understand years later.
