I wish you a happy new year 2024!!!
Yeah so Remember when Ryan Condal said Aegon and Sunfyre's bond was "Green propaganda" and everyone got understandably mad at him??
Take a look at what he said regarding b&c:

Bro...what the actual fuck did you just say?
Apparently blood and cheese was all green propaganda that Alicent spread to make saint Rhaenyra look bad. It was all a misunderstanding, there was no choice between Jaehaerys and Maelor, it was all made up.
Alicent just invented the most evil lie she could muster up to villainize the amazing blacks. What was shown onscreen is the real representation of what transpired.
Jesus Christ Condal i get that you hate book! Alicent (and Alicent in general) for some reason but can you stop blaming that poor woman, who had to watch her grandchild get beheaded, and not say she was lying out of her ass? Is that so hard?
"You were supposed to be rooting for blood and cheese and hope they didn't get caught!"
For the love of the Seven, if you don't want all the money you spent marketing this show to go down the drain Hbo please keep this man away from any interviews, I can't listen to him anymore without wanting to turn my phone off.
I genuinely can't fault many greens for deciding to stop watching because of this bs.
It's so embarrassing that a writer who is supposed to portray a civil war and keep both sides on equal ground pulls this type of shit. For me the next episode is coming out tomorrow and honestly I have no motivation to watch, absolutely no excitement.
I tried to deny it in the past, but now the writer's bias has become so blatant that my love for the show has taken a hit. Hotd truly is a high budget team black fanfic.
And here I thought without D&D in the picture we would be fine.

I am so done with Team Black's fake sympathy for Helaena and her children.
fr! it reeks of victim blaming. acting as if ‘oh i’m so sorry for her, she should’ve done better and marry jace/advocate for rhaenyra/go to dragonstone’. none of these people put themselves in helaena’s place and see how for her, rhaenyra isn’t kin, alicent and her brothers are. why would she ever betray them? that’s her mother, her brothers, her husband and father of her children. rhaenyra means nothing to helaena because helaena means nothing to rhaenyra. she knows that daemon hates hightower, that he hates her and her brothers. she’s not safe with them. all of helaena’s suffering is due to rhaenyra and daemon, so she’s right to hate them all she wants.
Screaming crying throwing up this is the best thing I've seen all day
"when you called me normal... that made me so happy."
"because you're the girl that saved me that day. the worst girl in the world."
Poor kids really, 0 thought was put in their feelings towards their parents remarrying so soon, they deserved better :-/
I will never be over the kids' reactions at Daemon and Rhaenyra's gross Valyrian wedding. Jace looked so hurt. Luke was crying and had to be comforted by the maester. Rhaena and Baela were so lost and confused. Those kids deserved so much better.
Blackstans- it is so cruel to ask for an eye! How dare Alicent be such a cruel petty b****
Blackstans- A son for a son is only fair.
Looool. It’s only fair when it’s their side getting revenge, obviously.
But it’s very telling about how team black actually view these two “comparable” scenarios.
On one hand, you have a mother whose son was just maimed and lost an eye, and whose abusive husband is completely uncaring at the loss and chastises her for her anger. And her screaming and crying, begging for justice falls upon a room of deaf ears. So, she lashes out and decides to deliver justice herself on the actual perpetrator who stabbed her child. And this moment of pain is seen by the fandom as quintessential proof that Alicent is evil, vicious, and malicious. And she can never and will never be forgiven for this lapse in judgement. Even though she vocally regrets it and denies the opportunity for the eye when she’s calm and her mind is clear.
Meanwhile, we have a mother and step-father who lost the life of a child, which is terrible. And their solution is to kill another child as revenge. However this is a child that is unrelated to the death of their son. It’s the nephew of the murderer. A little boy that was completely uninvolved (and this isn’t including the rape threats and emotional torture done to Helaena who is ALSO uninvolved). And yet team black sees this as a morally justifiable solution and seem to revel in the murder. Even though the victim isn’t at fault.
It’s just hard to wrap your head around. Alicent wanting to hurt the boy who maimed her son is evil and unforgivable, even when she is sorry for her actions. But Rhaenyra and Daemon killing an innocent boy is ok because their son was killed by someone who is on the side of the father of that boy??
Neither situation is justifiable or ok. But team green doesn’t support an eye for an eye, while team black does support and even revels in a son for a son. And either way, they aren’t comparable because one is wanting justice against the perpetrator and the other is…wanting to kill an innocent kid for violent revenge.
they are hanging ....... posters ......... in king's landing .......... asking the illiterate smallfolk .......... to come to dragonstone to claim dragons
Rhea Royce only had one scene but she completely and utterly ended her worthless manchild of a husband with her words and for that we Stan her even in death
God the Hotd fandom really got one crumb of its favourite divorced couple and rose from its tomb.
Mainly a Hotd blog but I also enjoy talking about Asoiaf and Aot. Book!Alicent and Criston slander is not permitted here. 19
