#oh and alaric poor kid… he truly is like ‘yay 😐 future king in the house ☹️’

Do you think king queen fmo would consider trying for another baby for the "heir and a spare" thing?

Honestly I love this idea simply bc of drama that would ensue afterwards 💀💀, and for several reasons:

- Aemond tipping his hand to basically saying alaric will be his heir

- what this mean for reader and his relationship since there will have to be an added layer of intimacy that they haven’t shared since probably trying for alaric.

- what this means for daella in all of this. Like she was never officially named and she does understand the way the realm works. But she’d probably feel some type of way bc she could do it. She could be a great queen

- also what kind of new found pressure reader would now be under when it comes to conceiving children. Like yeah regardless of status, there were/are strict “duties” a woman had to tend to. Child bearing being one. But now the idea that she needs to have a boy and if not…. They are trying all over again. I think as someone who had a mom who struggled with fertility issues, that would fuck with her. Also someone who still grew up being told that was her job. And if she doesn’t get that done, she has essentially failed. Ugh I can just imagine her and daella having a similar convo that nyra and aemma do. “Everyone is worried about the babe, who is worried about you.”
