#witcherS3

[psychofairyart]

I don't know if anyone already came up with this but wouldn't it be funny if it went a little like this in Witcher S3:

Yennefer and the Witchers are teaching Citi how to fight and use her powers but she can't quiet get the hang of it, especially not about the screaming/voice thing. Jaskier relucrantly sticks around at Kaer Morhen for the rest of winter but everyone is pretty much indifferent to him (he's just a prissy bard to most) and vice versa (cause, yes he's still kinda pissed at Geralt).

Then one day during traing:

Jaskier, finally fed up, from the side, in a snippy tone: You know, I could be wrong since I'm just a silly bard... but maybe somebody should teach the princess how to properly controll her voice first.

Everybody: *looking at him in confusion*...

Everybidy: *slowly realising Jaskier might be right and damn, why didn't they think of that themselves and sooner*

Jaskier *casually leaning against a wall, strumming his lute, not looking at anyone*: But oh, if only you knew somebody who could teach such a skill. Shame, really...

Black vs Green? Rhaenyra vs Alicent? aemond vs daemon? You know what HotD team I’m on?

I’m Team Rewrite, Team Turn-Back-Time-and-Reconsider, Team One-of-the-wishes-from-my-magic-lamp, Team I-Dont-Care-Bust-Them-Heads, Team Develop-Your-Characters-and-Conflicts-Or-Im-Going-Back-to-WitcherS3.

And what Fire and Blood Team? (nonwithstanding the actual ending) 

Team Black, because despite the anticipated problems of having a female heir/ruler:

Nonconformist women winning rules

Elizabeth I of England successfully won and stayed winning (& killed Mary Queen of Scots after directly challenged)

Jaehaerys and Alysanne (incest marriage being allowed and the incest marriages b/t Aegon the Uncrowned and Rhaena Targaryen before Maegor)

the fact that the ruler/king’s final word is law (how that matters as well as how the subjects take that king-is-supreme) and Viserys placed Rhaenyra as his heir

the oaths those lords took (oath breaking is severely taboo, )

and the tactics rulers consistently used to solidify their reign

I personally love Dany and foam at the mouth for the chance for the first female sovereign/queen regnant

Would the chaos that did happen even compare to those things that could have happened if Rhaenyra was just allowed to ascend and rule? Maybe, if we refer to how  King Edward V and his younger brother Richard, the Duke of York ended up.

The uncertainty surely killed Alicent, though, at least, and others supporting the greens beyond her.

At the same time, Mary, Queen of Scots, was a sovereign in her own right with an entire country at her disposal before she contested Elizabeth I, while Aegon (II)/Aemond/Daeron were all non-heir princes. Also, Aegon/Aemond/Daeron share the same country as Rhaenyra, and Westeros [as a nation] did not face the same problem of competing “nations” as did Elizabeth I against Spain)
