Experience Tumblr Like Never Before
Ah yes. I forgot. Two short conversations, one of which was obviously the unclear ravings of a sick, dying man, take precedence over years of clear support for Rhaenyra’s claim. My bad.
What’s astonishing to me is how the things said to any character on team black is taken as “omg there’s so much meaning in what they’re being told, like this is so important to remember because it’ll definitely effect the future” but when a character on team green is told things y’all basically think “it’s not that deep, I don’t see why they’d be affected by it and why it would influence their future decisions and actions”
For example: when Viserys was saying TO ALICENT that he thought he made a mistake naming Rhaenyra heir, then years later just straight up mumbled an out of context prophecy before he died… I don’t understand how y’all act like those scenes have no impact on Alicent…especially after she’s manipulated by her father to think her children are in danger because Rhaenyra is heir.
I suggest at the very least, take a social sciences class, maybe then you’ll learn that when things are said to a person, that person remembers those words and takes those words into consideration whenever anything hinting at their validity happens.
