daemon targaryen is a lot of very very bad things and absolutely deserves the hate he gets
but in the spirit of fairness and honesty, if I had been telling anyone who would listen for years that the hightowers were up to shady shit, only for my niece-wife’s throne to be usurped and for my nephew/step-son to be brutally murdered I too would be ordering assassinations and setting shit on fire because I FUCKING TOLD YOU

I know you're keeping Clear Sky as an antagonist (and he's very compelling as one in your rewrite), but I'm curious: if you absolutely had to give him a redemption arc, how would you go about it? (Besides not fridging his sister and wives, of course.)
If I was forced to give Clear Sky a redemption arc I'd slip a femur right out of my legmeat and beat someone to death with it
I'd never write a redemption arc for him, ever. It would be a completely different character.
Clear Sky's redemption arc is not even an idea worth considering; This an extremely consistent abusive family member who drives the entire plot, a predator who will leverage the love people have for him, whose defining characteristic is that he dresses up his megalomania as "Just Trying to Protect Everyone"
And I'd give that up?! for what?
I'd rewrite the whole plot, JUST like how the writers did with TWO born evil foreigner villains so their story wouldn't get boring, so I could prove the he could be a good boy if he wanted to? WHY?
It's doing the same thing the Erins do, totally uninterested in the story of his victims to write yet another plot centered around the pain of an abusive man.
Elder Bones is disappointed in you if you even think about it, actually. I am holding the femurbone in my hand as we speak. I'm gonna GETCHA

created another reparative experience for the pile today. these are getting so mundane now, in the best of ways.
i'm on vacation in the one place my family would ever take me to when i was a kid. it's a cozy beach town, and a vacation spot that i've reclaimed as my own. i don't know if i've actually been here more times as an adult than as a kid, but certainly more times as an adult that i actually remember.
and the thing is: this is a pretty chilly place.
i totally thought i came prepared. checked the forecast, packed a hoodie... but 65 on a sunny still day is different than 65 on a windy, misty beach.
as a kid, i would've been told to suck it up. or worse, would've had to lie that i wasn't uncomfortable so that my mother wouldn't force her jacket on me and then make it my problem that she was the cold one now... (and then incite my father's wrath at both of us for being... needy)
so. i bought myself a jacket.
yanno, like tourists do.
it's got an octopus on it and everything.
which is something my parents would have found absolutely unthinkable. you should've been more prepared, you should've worn your mother's jacket, you shouldn't waste your money, you shouldn't be so fucking weak
but here i am. with a cool jacket. that i bought because i committed the sin of not being fully prepared

nightmares nightmares nightmares every goddamn night. im tired.
even crueler was this one I was about to get away from the family, i was packing my bag, i was going to be free after a terrible terrible dinner with them where they'd been so angry at me like usual because I'd spoken things that didnt match their opinions (flew directly in the face of their opinions, but only out of genuine worry for them because I cannot help but care about them, they're family, they've had good moments towards me, I've grown up with them, it is nigh impossible to let all that go and not care about them) and I decided to leave, it wasn't safe anymore, I'd spoken too out of turn, but i was going to be free of them. but i woke up just as I was walking out the door, my nightmares and dreams can't even let me have a taste of that freedom, it's too painful and close to hope i guess. incredibly cruel!
