tbh, it seems to me that people started talking too early about the fact that aegon allegedly does not love his children, when he didn't have a single scene with them. helaena had only one, and even then she just sat next to them, but everyone agrees that she is a good mother.
considering the book canon, aegon from the show reminds me of my dad: a man who never initiates a pastime with me, but whose love I do not doubt (paradoxically? yes. but child-parent relationships can be ambiguous). he shows his love in a different way. this is one of the reasons why I can't be angry at aegon's failure as a parent, apart from the imposed marriage and fatherhood.
#aegon ii targaryen#house of the dragon#my post#[ even now the older generation has the opinion that only women should be engaged in raising children#there is nothing to say about the Middle Ages#Aegon in the show can still be both a disgusting man and a loving father#And when I say “loving” it doesn't mean “great” ]#bad english#[ perhaps he is just as generous cheerful and condescending reminding the father of the weekend lmao ]
