you didnt even like the hot lesbian lovin? and the starving poor people?
youve changed
I liked the idea that the Targaryens have been wrong this whole time and dragons choose, but I'm not sure that is what they are doing. They could just being pulling an Anakin/Acolyte with Jon Snow... but I have not read the books this is based on.
anakin has nothing whatsoever at all to do with the acolyte series. ignore that nonsense as thats all it is.
which targaryens are wrong though? its two sides of the same immediate family. The dragons do indeed choose. man theyve wasted a lot of time with Daemons acid trips, but thats cos its a slim enough book, and they need to get multiple seasons out of this, is all really.
drag it all out.
Extremely mild GoT TV series spoilers:
- Spoiler: show
- The rider seasmoke chose is not a blood relative of a Targaryen though, at least so far as the story has revealed. He's a bastard, like Jon Snow. Who is able to ride a dragon, like Jon Snow. So either he's a secret Targaryen, like Jon Snow, or they have been wrong about the bloodline requirement.
It isn’t a requirement to be Targaryen, just of Valyrian descent, which houses Velaryon and Celtigar are as well
are the latter two fams wiped out by GoT?
no, they just don’t really come up in the show

So why did it not occur to Rhaenyra to use Velaryons, the family of her hand, instead of some Monty Python looking distant relative?

There’s really no one else left in the family besides Corlys, who is an old fart who likes boats. It hadn’t occurred to her to look for bastards, but she’ll obviously have that eureka moment soon.

really was...theyre doing some really amazing work in this season, i think theyre amplified by it being far more low key in the rest of it. Builds the tension and expectation up.

He had McBain’s partner energy, but to be fair, so do most knights and lords on these shows who pledge their lives and undying loyalty to their regents.

I couldn’t tell which one got torn to shreds, but the lack of identifying any non-Targ characters is a problem in this show
