#‘Smell Like Targaeryen Spirit’ I wanna DIE

[chrkrose]

Reddit is a cesspool but sometimes there are gems hidden among thousands of comments and I’m bringing one of those here.

The OP post was the question: “What is your opinion of Rhaegar Targaryen?”

My favorite comment:

A moody teenager that never grew, for better or worse. Or, to be more specific, that ONE GUY from High School.

Chilling amid the ruins of Summerhall playing Smell Like Targaeryen Spirit on his lute, always sad, head only partially risen - you might thing he is myopic at first, because he only ever look at mid distance, "longing for something he doesn't know, yet", surrounded by his possy, pretending to not know everyone was in love with him, they all super hyper mega certain they could solve all the injustices in the world, "if only the older generation got out of the picture, man!"

He is a white guy with a guitar.

His horniness is probably part of his "super innovative, nobody ever thought about this before" REVELATION that "marriage is a prison, maaaan."

Probably part of the Student Body at his Liberal Arts course at the Citadel. A huge leftist that thinks "women should have sex whenever to show they are not part of the system, maaaan". Going by the typical history of dude like him irl, he would have grown up to be so very boring and bureaucratic... but alas, he died at 27 of overdose after a show. I mean...

Yeah, he is a huuuge stereotype, but applied to Fantasy.
