#the dance was a freakin tragedy for all involved and especially for the small folk

Do aemond and Saerah anddd their children survive the Dance of dragons?

Oooohhh...in my head, I'd love them too. I'd love for the Greens and Blacks to be yanked to the table by their ears and sat down to settle on a decent truce. (but ngl, a little Daemon and Jace knocking down a few pegs? I wouldn't mind)

Like if the child of Team Green wed the child of Team Black (Jace/Baela's child + Saerah/Aemond? Jaehaera + Joffrey?)?

Or if Rhaenyra relinquished naming Jace her heir, named Aegon II her heir (everyone knows he'll never be king), but betrothed in blood and vow that one of her children would marry one of Alicent's grandchildren, and their children would be heir, that way everyone gets a piece of the pie. Jace might be thwarted, but it's much less pressure (I don't know about anyone else, but I think that Jace was as ill suited for rule as Aegon II for the fact that he has anger issues and would likely rule with a bloody iron fist).

In my imagination, all this stupid succession shit could have been done away with if the Greens and Blacks had a moderator to negotiate a peaceful resolution that they could all agree with. And obviously without that freak Daemon in at the table so Rhaenyra could make up her own mind.

If none of that happened, and the war continued on, I think it would be more realistic that either Aemond or Saerah end up alone raising what remains of their children in exile, or for them all to perish. One thing's for sure, I don't think if the Dance went on that Saerah and Aemond would be able to live out the years together, and neither would all their children live to see adulthood. Everyone suffered in the Dance in one way or another, and they're no exception.
