in episode six when larys and alicent are having their dinner, talking about rhaenyra’s boys being bastards and viserys’ willful blind eye, larys says, “do you expect the king to doom his dear daughter to exile or even— it’s a willful blindness, the king. i mean you’d surly suffer the same affliction if it came to it.” alicent interjects, “i would not.”

i know this show has been very purposeful so far but even then surely this is not aegon/helaena/aemond bastard children, married the wrong brother, aegon iv/naerys/aemon foreshadowing right. like surely not. surely we shouldn’t be perceiving this right.

The 💖💖"where is duty where is sacrifice"💖💖 line being tossed around as the ultimate motto/inspiration of green stans is genuinely the most pathetic thing that happened to this fandom and an undeniable proof of most people's Americans's functional illiteracy.

You are literally preaching for institutionalising internalised misogyny, and sounding like that disgusting woman from the Handmaid's tale I don't even remember her name cause I don't watch the show that held the female protagonist so that her own husband can rape her.

Of course you're gonna tell me oh you're a hypocrite shipping incestous couples and promoting feudal ideology, everything is permitted in the context of the story, right. Everything is permitted. The difference is that it's according to the context of the story that Alicent and her clan are the antagonists, something that many people have forgotten and I don't entirely blame you for that because the shitshow is very confusing. Still, according to the context of the story Alicent is a spiteful, vengeful and treasonous conservative freak, who slut-shames, slanders and undermines the heir which directly led to her horrible death, and all of this because she's a woman. So yeah, according to the context of the story, using her ridiculous line as words to live by is really problematic and that's code for fucking disgusting.

I even saw a person saying that they don't blame Alicent for wanting to usurp Rhaenyra because Rhaenyra made it so easy for them. And why is that ? Because she had sex and kids with another man, because of that she made it easy for them so she deserves being eaten by a dragon on the orders of her brother. Because she had sex. This is the level of clownery we're at.

Green stans literally don't realise that the Hightowers' aim was power all along, that their main quality is greed and they used whatever they could to slander and undermine the rightful heir weaponising her gender against her. It was never about her supposed immoral lifestyle, it was always about her fucking vagina and Hightowers' greed and misogyny and that's literally supposed to be the reason why they are the bad guys but people are literally using the very reason they are the bad guys as a means to defend them? Like??????

Honestly I can't block fast enough.

Ok but the parallel between Cersei absolutely terrorising the shit out of Littlefinger in the "Power is Power" scene and Alicent being sexually abused by Larys in order to get him to do what she wants is just.marvellous.

They are both Queen regents. That literally means they are like one of the 5 most powerful people in all seven kingdoms, not to say the most powerful people in all seven kingdoms after the king himself. They both happen to have a faithful servant/counselor that also happens to be a psychotic murderous piece of shit, no disagreement on that. Both these counselors try to exert power over the Queens but the Queens' reactions are totally not the same. Littlefinger tries to scare Cersei by saying that he knows everything that happens, implying that he can take her down at any moment. Larys terrorises Alicent by executing murder that she didn't order, but in her name, thus blackmailing her. Cersei kindly reminds Littlefinger that he can be the most powerful and unhinged Lord in all Seven Kingdoms but she is still the Queen, on top of that she is fucking insane and she will cut his throat on the spot if he defies her again. Alicent on the other hand has Larys masturbate to her feet so that hopefully he will do as she wishes. Alicent, the Queen regent. That could literally order his execution on the spot. He is a simple disabled Lord and she is the Queen and she needs to give him sexual favours so that he obeys her? What she could have done is negotiate, and blackmail back, in a power move that is worthy of real Queen regents in history who had political wit and ruthlessness and ambition. A power move that is worthy or book!Alicent herself. Imagine the dialogue and the character development that scene could have given us. But nope, wasn't meant to be. What we got instead is a disabled person being creepy and abusive and Alicent being a victim yet again.

And you are still wondering why this isn't an engaging character? You are still wondering why the general audience doesn't give a fuck about her?

My two cents on episode 7 because I just watched it.

It was an amazing episode. I will even argue that it was the best episode so far. So many things happening, nothing felt rushed. The funeral after party was GOLD. So many dynamics being explored between all the characters, so many feelings expressed just by angry stares, longing glances and half spoken innuendos. Like a pot slowly boiling and ready to explode. The fight between the children was perfect, the fight between Alicent Rhaenyra and Viserys later on was easily the best scene in HotD until now. I am team Black until the very end and I love Rhaenyra with all my heart but I FELT Alicent in this episode and THIS is great writing. I absolutely loved that Alicent regretted her actions afterwards, I also loved how she expected her father to be pissed and judgemental, and he was judgemental but at the same time appreciative, like? That's some great, multilayered dialogue there, people. The way Daemyra schemed and plotted their wedding and Laenor's escape was GoT season 1 material. Epic plot-twist.

Let's talk about Daemyra. I went over many posts here about the couple, and I admit that I am genuinely confused. I will address some of the complaints I saw: Matt and Emma don't have chemistry. Emma wasn't into it. Daemon wasn't into it, he was blank and passive and indifferent. The sex scene was short and we didn't see oral sex and different positions, orgasms, eye contact, whatever. The dialogue before was also lukewarm because Daemon didn't confess his undying love for his niece on one knee. We still don't know Daemon's motives because he doesn't speak. He didn't show enthousiasm after the mariage proposal. Etc etc etc.

Part of the reason for this reaction IS the incredibly high expectations. Another part is the ridiculous nature of a lot of these expectations. With all due respect for Daemyra's shippers out there (because I am one of them) I think you are confusing this show with Pride and Prejudice. This is not a romance show. This is not a show about the epic love story between Daemon and Rhaenyra. This is also not a romcom. It's a Game of Thrones show. The love story is a part of it, not even the main thing. Yes the dialogue wasn't exactly lovey dovey, yes Daemon didn't start crying when Rhaenyra proposed, he didn't swear eternal love and devotion like Romeo. No, he didn't go down on Rhaenyra in a feminist power move.

I'm sorry, but who fucking cares.

I've said what their dynamic in this episode definitely wasn't, let's see what it actually was. Let's talk specifics.

What I saw with my own eyes, was two broken depressed people coming together again under the least ideal circonstances (hmm the funeral of Daemon's wife hello). I saw a very bitter and hurt Rhaenyra that still longed for Daemon. I saw a depressed Daemon that felt everything is lost to him until Rhaenyra confessed her feelings. I saw a very strong female character pursuing what she wants. I saw tenderness, love, devotion. I don't need romantic words for it, I saw it. It was fucking there. Daemon finally let slip the real reason why he chickened out in the brothel and in the mariage ceremony: wasn't for the throne, wasn't for his own ambitions, but for HER. "I spared you, you were only a child = you didn't understand what you were doing and how much it would cost you, your reputation, your claim to the throne, everything, so I let you be because I cared so much for you". "You have a place in my court if this is what you need" "I need NOTHING", said Daemon the ambitious bastard who only wanted Rhaenyra for the throne. Yeah. That's why he was so hesitant in Rhaenyra's affections, that would CLEARLY benefit him, that's why he was so considerate, and cautious, and afraid and hopeful and tender. Yep, the throne. That was the WHOLE fucking point of Rhaenyra pursuing HIM instead of him pursuing her. To show that he wants HER and not the throne, he wants what's best for her and he wants to make sure that's what SHE wants. He's not trying to seduce her because it would come across as yet another plan to get the throne. His feelings are already clear, Rhaenyra knows it, we know it, we saw how depressed he was and we saw the longing in his glances and the tenderness in his words, we didn't need big rom-com déclarations. So, Daemon's motives aren't clear people? Really? WTF.

The dialogue before the sex scene was impeccable. The most romantic scene in the whole GoT universe. Let's talk about the actual sex scene. Yes it was short. Yes I don't care. Again, this is not a romance movie. The sex scene was extremely cute, appropriate for the CIRCOMSTANCES (FUNERAL HELLO) and the characters position in this particular chapter of the story, Rhaenyra is not a cheerful teen anymore and she gives the deadly victorious possessive look in the end that I personally loved. Yes it was short, but again, it's not an epic romance movie, it's Game of thrones and there are other, more important things to show than oral sex, sorry. Go watch porn.

The only complaint that is valid is the lighting. That was shitty.

My #1 post of 2022

The "Daemon groomed Rhaenyra" claims are really getting on my nerves. No he didn't.

No he didn't.

The first time they kissed they were adults by MODERN standards and the first time they interacted with a romantic undertone she was of age by medieval standards. The rest of the time he wasn't even in court.

The only reason you losers can't stop bitching about Daemon gRoOmINg Rhaenyra is because Rhaenyra actually wanted to fuck Daemon since forever. If it was a bunch of candidates for her hand in marriage at 13 years old, which was the fucking NORM in the middle ages, you wouldn't give two shits, but because Rhaenyra actually liked Daemon and they actually had a connection, suddenly he's somehow gRoOmINg her and we are romanticising pedophilia-

Shut the fuck up. Seriously just shut up, enough.

having both daemon and rhaenyra’s significant others/parents of their children die by fire is just screaming doubles. like even their partners are looking in the mirror. they’re already married to very similar looking siblings (daemon even commenting on laenor being pretty). they now both have two children of the opposite gender with a third of the way. they’re both trapped, rhaenyra in the life she’s always had, clutching to it so tightly scared to let in slip though her fingers. and daemon having already let it slip is now trapped in the freedom he is granted, freedom to go and live anywhere and anyhow he pleases. anywhere except the one place he truly wants to be.

this and episode three are probably the only two episodes we will get without them together and yet they are both still intrinsically tied. episode three with them violently taking a life. verses now with a potential birth and then ultimately with a life being taken from them. the life that helped them bare new life. insane.

11 and 13, about Flatlands? (For the ask game 😊)

Hello! So sorry for the long wait, but hopefully the response will make up for it!

So, questions 11 and 13:

11: What do you like best about this fic?

I think what I like best about flatlands is that it is this space where I can write down some of the wonderful scenes that play out in my head about these two characters that I absolutely love, and in writing them I experience them in a way that I really like. Truly, it really is a pleasure to write this story, and I think that is what I like best about it (but getting to interact with you guys is a close second!!)

13: What music did you listen to, if any, to get in the mood for writing this story? Or if you didn’t listen to anything, what do you think readers should listen to to accompany us while reading?

So I personally don't rlly listen to anything while writing because it usually deconcentrates me, but I have a playlist that kind of translates the feeling of the story (to me) in musical form to listen to when I want to indulge in that. I also tried to somehow encapsulate the progression of the story, or the feeling of it perhaps, through the choice and the order of the songs. The lyrics were also relevant in my choosing (i'd recomend searching up the translations for those that aren't in English, both for understanding's sake and just because I, as a hopeless romantic, think they are simply beautiful). So here's a link to that:

(Also just to add an interesting piece of info: the second song on the playlist, called Flatlands by Chelsea Wolfe, was actually the inspiration for the fic's name lol)

Hope you like it! Tell me your thoughts! (And a thousand thank you's and kisses to the ever wonderful @ladygreene13 for the ask!!!)

Three ships: well first is McWexler, (Jimmy McGill and Kim Wexler from Better Call Saul) because in my strictly personal opinion their bond is the most special, real and heartbreaking I've ever seen in any TV show. Watch it, seriously just watch it. Second is Delena from TVD merely for the trauma I've experienced because of it. If any of my mutuals/followers used to be a Delena shipper I would like you to come forward so we can bond over the trauma. For the others, do not watch that show, don't recommend. Third ship is Britin (Brian and Justin from the original Queer as Folk), my ultimate m/m, extremely problematic epic spectacular heartbreaking soul-crushing ship. You should definitely watch that flawless show but it has a LOT of sex.

First ever ship: first ever book ship was Scarlett and Rhett from Gone with the wind. I shipped this SO hard when I read the book at like 9-10 years old. That book was totally NOT appropriate for my age, but I read it, loved it, all the racist and misogynistic implications flied right above my head, I didn't understand shit. All I cared about was my extremely problematic ship. Then I immediately watched the movie and was obsessed with it. Of course now I'm older and I'm able to contextualise this story much better, but that ship holds a special place in my heart. Sorry for being such a boomer, my friends made fun of me for liking this 🤣

Last song : I actually listen to Rachmaninoff for studying, mainly the Piano Concerto No. 2 in C minor, Op. 18, with Stanislav Richter on the piano. It's not technically a song but that's the last musical piece I listened to.

Last movie : actually, rewatched Gentlemen Prefer Blondes an old musical starring Marilyn Monroe. I'm sorry for being such a boomer, again, but I watched the movie Blonde, was SO pissed, then I saw the ridiculous interview of the ridiculous director where he said that he didn't watch any MM movie and that he's surprised people actually watch that shit and that Gentlement Prefer Blondes is a movie about prostitutes. That made my blood boil so I rewatched it. Funnily enough, that movie was immensely more feminist than the misogynistic crap he created. But oh well, it's trendy now to disguise torture porn as feminism.

Currently reading : Cyrano de Bergerac by Rostand, love it.

Currently watching : Dark! Love it so far. I'm in the beginning.

Currently consuming : hot chocolate. I chose a flavoured cappuccino but the machine decided I'd rather have chocolate, which is something that only happens to me apparently.

Currently craving : sleep. So much sleep. I'm exhausted and my sleep schedule is fucked up beyond salvation.
