A man in dark armor and a pale pink cloak spotted with blood stepped up to Robb. “Jaime Lannister sends his regards.” He thrust his longsword through her son’s heart, and twisted. (Catelyn VII, ASOS)
Jaime, clueless in the riverlands:
Jaime when he learns that Lady Stoneheart is looking for him for that particular reason:
ANYWAY, i'm glad Baelor loves Maekar so much. I'm glad Maekar was the last thing on Baelor's mind before he died. I'm glad that Baelor sent his own maester to Maekar before he even thought of sending his maester to Dunk or even himself. I'm glad that he turned a blind eyes to his brother's son and even joked about it with at the expense of their other brothers, it adds a lot more depth and complexity to him outside of being a plain toast goody-two shoes that people love to project when talking about him. It makes him multifaceted.
I'm glad Baelor would die for Maekar and vice versa, I'm glad that the two are canonically close and that he loves and cherishes Maekar and Maekar loves and cherishes him. I'm glad that Maekar gets to be a decent king that Baelor never got to be, adding to the guilt he feels, and fashions his crown to remind him of baelor, I'm glad that Maekar dies in a similar way to the brother who loved him unconditionally, almost symbolizing that it is Baelor calling him home, even metaphorically giving him the final blow so they can be together for eternity. I'm glad they are more tethered and paralleled to one another despite one being living and the other being dead for years, and that Baelor haunts Maekar. People can be as angry as they want but Baelor will love Maekar.

Then Queen Alicent removed her own crown and placed it upon the head of her daughter, Helaena, the wife and sister of King Aegon II.
“My Queen,” Alicent said, and kissed her cheeks. Then she knelt before her daughter.
“Your Grace.”

"Elia should like Lyanna! In fact, she should love her!! Cause Dornish-Northern Sisterhood and/or Lesbian romance!!!!" - morons who infest the internet with their bile
Where was the Dornish-Northern love when Elia was near death post Aegon's birth, and willful Lyanna Stark, supposed defender of the weak and womenfolk chose that moment to run off with Elia's husband?
At best, in defense of the selfish chit you can say she didn't hate Elia, she just didn't give Elia a single thought, like that's supposed to make it better?
Knowingly having repeated sex with a married man who has two kids and not giving his post partum half dead wife any thought?
Where was sisterhood and lesbian love when Lyanna was safely hidden away in Elia's homeland, while Elia was held hostage with her children by a madman who wanted Elia to answer for Lyanna and Rhaegar's whoring?
Why does no one bring up sisterhood and lesbian love when many Lyanna stans celebrate the selfish dumbass for naming her son the same name as Elia's murdered baby, whose blood and brains were on Elia's r*pist when he r*ped her?
Here's what honorable Eddard Stark's most Stark/Northern child thinks of Dorne in actual canon:
"The squire seemed nice enough to Arya; maybe a little shy, but good-natured. She had always heard that Dornishmen were small and swarthy, with black hair and small black eyes, but Ned had big blue eyes, so dark that they looked almost purple. And his hair was a pale blond, more ash than honey."
A stereotype about all those tiny brown folks looking the same, that Arya finds out is untrue.
Eddard Stark will of course wax poetic about his sister to his daughter, but no way would Lord Honourable ever tell his children that Dornishmen are regular people like them too, not stereotypes, because to do that might lead to having to admit to his children how his best buddy's rebellion was built on the bodies of a r*pe and murder victim and her butchered children.
And that would mean acknowledging to himself that his beloved sister directly contributed to Elia and her children's gruesome fate by being a grossly self centered bimbo.
And their bodies were never ever returned to the victimized family.
F your sisterhood and fake love. It is built on ignoring r*pe and murder and racism.
I can't stop thinking about this
queen never cry
A reminder that darker fiction has a right to exist and explore themes that people are uncomfortable with. Yes, even if it's romanticized. Yes, even if you personally don't like it.
Authors have always written about things that they don't agree with morally, and I hope to god they always will, despite how shitty people treat them for doing that now.

A KNIGHT OF THE SEVEN KINGDOMS 1.01 — The Hedge Knight
Targaryens And Incest: An Evaluation
Introduction
I’ve seen it be argued that the Targaryens weren’t as incestuous as is made out. This does not seem right to me, so I’m going to evaluate how incestuous they actually were. I’ve devised my own way of doing this, based on how many grandparents, great-grandparents and great-great-grandparents each generation has.
A normal, not inbred person has four grandparents, eight great-grandparents and sixteen great-great-grandparents, for a total of 28 people. I’m going to determine how many each generation of Targaryens have and give them a score out of 28, then put that score against the scale I have devised which is:
28 – Not inbred at all. Yay for you!
20-27 – Slightly inbred.
10-19 – Fairly inbred.
0-9 – Incredibly inbred. How are you a functioning person?
From the scores of each generation we will determine the overall level of incestuousness of the Targaryens as a whole. Let’s begin!
Visenya, Aegon I and Rhaenys
It’s a bit difficult to evaluate this generation fully as we don’t know much about their grandparents, great-grandparents and great-great-grandparents. Their parents were Aerion Targaryen and Valaena Velaryon, who weren’t siblings but were related in some way as Valaena’s mother was a Targaryen. The problem is that we don’t know how exactly Valaena’s mother and Aerion are related.
There’s also no information on Aerion’s mother and grandmother. I think it’s pretty reasonable to assume that they were likely the sisters of Aerion’s father and grandfather respectively, as that is pretty standard for Targaryens. Aerion’s great-grandparents were siblings, as were his great-great-grandparents.
Visenya, Aegon I and Rhaenys have four grandparents, as far as I can tell. Daemion Targaryen and (most likely) his unnamed sister were the parents of their father Aerion and an unnamed Velaryon and an unnamed Targaryen were the parents of their mother Valaena.
Valaena’s mother was either the sister of Aerion’s father Daemion or his cousin through his uncle Maegon, as there’s no other Targaryens for her to be the child of. Most likely she was Daemion’s sister as it’s not noted that Maegon had any children. So most likely Visenya, Aegon I and Rhaenys have only four great-grandparents, as their grandfather and both grandmothers are likely siblings with the same parents. Aerys Targaryen and (most likely) his unnamed sister are the parents of Daemion Targaryen and (most likely) his sisters, one of whom he married and the other who married a Velaryon. Their other great-grandparents are an unnamed Velaryon and an unnamed wife of unknown House.
Their great-great-grandparents are Aegon and Elaena Targaryen, an unnamed Velaryon and three unnamed people of unknown Houses. Six people in total.
Visenya, Aegon I and Rhaenys: 14/28. Fairly Inbred.
Aenys I and Maegor I
Aenys and Maegor are half siblings but as both of their mothers were their father’s sisters, it doesn’t actually matter in discussion of their ancestors.
Their grandparents were Aerion Targaryen and Valaena Velaryon, their great-grandparents were Daemion Targaryen, (most likely) his two sisters and an unnamed Velaryon and their great-great-grandparents were Aerys Targaryen, (most likely) his sister, an unnamed Velaryon and his unnamed wife of unknown House.
Aenys and Maegor: 10/28. Fairly Inbred.
Rhaena, Aegon, Viserys, Jaehaerys I and Alysanne
As Aenys didn’t have a sister, he married Alyssa Velaryon. You would think this would be incest free. You would be wrong, although the incest is distant in this case. At least, as I speculate.
It’s my speculation that Valaena Velaryon, Aenys’ grandmother, and Daemon Velaryon, Alyssa’s grandfather, were siblings, making them second cousins. It’s never been stated, and it’s entirely possible they were cousins rather than siblings, but it makes sense to me.
Aenys’ children have the normal four grandparents, Aegon I, Rhaenys, Aethan Velaryon and Alarra Massey. But they only have six great-grandparents: Aerion, Valaena, Daemon, his unnamed wife, a Massey and his unnamed wife. Their great-great-grandparents are a tad speculative but I believe there are ten of them- Aerion’s parents, Valaena and Daemon’s parents, Daemon’s wife’s parents, the Massey’s parents and the Massey’s wife’s parents.
Rhaena, Aegon, Viserys, Jaehaerys and Alysanne: 20/28. Slightly Inbred.
Aemon, Baelon, Alyssa and Daella
(For brevity’s sake I’ve only listed those of Jaehaerys’ children who contributed to future generations of Targaryens.)
Jaehaerys I married his sister Alysanne, so we’re back to incestuous marriages.
Their children have two grandparents, Aenys I and Alyssa, four great-grandparents, Aegon I, Rhaenys, Aethan Velaryon and Alarra Massey, and six great-great-grandparents, Aerion, Valaena, Daemon Velaryon, his unnamed wife, a Massey and his unnamed wife.
Aemon, Baelon, Alyssa and Daella: 12/28. Fairly inbred.
Viserys I and Daemon
Viserys I and Daemon are the sons of siblings Baelon and Alyssa Targaryen.
They have only two grandparents, Jaehaerys I and Alyssa, only two great-grandparents, Aenys I and Alyssa, and four great-great-grandparents, Aegon I, Rhaenys, Aethan and Alarra.
Viserys I and Daemon: 8/28. Incredibly Inbred.
Aegon II, Helaena, Aemond and Daeron
A much less incestuous generation as Viserys I married out of his own family the second time.
Their four grandparents are Baelon, Alyssa, Otto Hightower and Alyrie Florent (possibly? Named only in the show). They have six great-grandparents, Jaehaerys I, Alysanne, an unnamed Hightower, his unnamed wife, an unnamed Florent and his wife. They have the most great-great-grandparents so far with twelve, Aenys I, Alyssa, the unnamed Hightower’s parents, his unnamed wife’s parents, the unnamed Florent’s parents and his unnamed wife’s parents.
Aegon II, Helaena, Aemond and Daeron: 22/28. Slightly Inbred. Our highest score so far!
Aegon III and Viserys II
And we head straight back into incest here.
Aegon III and Viserys II’s grandparents are Viserys I, Aemma, Baelon and Alyssa. Their great-grandparents present an unique issue: their maternal great-grandparents are also their paternal grandparents, as their mother and father (Rhaenyra and Daemon) were niece and uncle. I’m only going to include Baelon and Alyssa once in the score, so the only great-grandparents who count are Jaehaerys I, Alysanne, Rodrik and Daella.
The same issue repeats with great-great-grandparents, so again I’m only counting those who have not already appeared in this inbred family tree. That means only Aenys I, Alyssa, Rodrik's father and Rodrik's mother count as great-great-grandparents.
Aegon III and Viserys II: Should be 10/28, but I'm docking two points for the amount of times each generation is related to each other, ie their four great-grandparents are Jaehaerys, Alysanne, their daughter and their son-in-law, so 8/28, Incredibly Inbred.
Daeron I, Baelor I, Daena, Elaena and Rhaena
Thankfully this generation is far less inbred. Aegon III married Daenaera Velaryon, to whom he is not related at all, unless you go back many generations.
Aegon III’s children have four grandparents, Daemon, Rhaenyra, Daeron Velaryon and Hazel Harte. Their eight great-grandparents are Baelon, Alyssa, Viserys I, Aemma, Vaemond, his unnamed wife, an unnamed Harte and his unnamed wife. Due to previously discussed issues around repeating family members, the great-great-grandparents we’re counting are Jaehaerys I, Alysanne, Rodrik, Daella, an unnamed Velaryon, his unnamed wife, the unnamed Harte’s parents and his unnamed wife’s parents for a total of eight.
Daeron I, Baelor I, Daena, Elaena and Rhaena: 22/28. Slightly Inbred.
Aegon IV, Naerys and Aemon
Another not very inbred generation! Viserys II married Larra Rogare, who wasn’t even Westerosi, let alone related to him. Well done Viserys II.
Aegon IV, Naerys and Aemon have four grandparents, Daemon, Rhaenyra, Lysandro Rogare and his unnamed wife. Their eight great-grandparents are Baelon, Alyssa, Viserys I, Aemma, an unnamed Rogare, his unnamed wife, an unnamed Lyseni and his unnamed wife. Due to previously discussed issues around repeating family members, the great-great-grandparents we’re counting are Jaehaerys I, Alysanne, Rodrik, Daella, an unnamed Rogare, his unnamed wife, the unnamed Lyseni’s parents and his unnamed wife’s parents for a total of ten.
Aegon IV, Naerys and Aemon: 22/28. Slightly inbred.
Daeron II and Daenerys
…and we’re back to incest. Great. Aegon IV married his sister Naerys (poor woman…).
Daeron II and Daenerys have two grandparents, Aegon III and Daenaera. They have four great-grandparents, Daemon, Rhaenyra, Daeron Velaryon and Hazel Harte, and eight great-great-grandparents, Baelon, Alyssa, Viserys I, Aemma, Vaemond, his unnamed wife, an unnamed Harte and his unnamed wife.
Daeron II and Daenerys: 14/28. Fairly Inbred.
Baelor, Aerys I, Rhaegel and Maekar I
Daeron II married Myriah Martell, completely unrelated to him. Good for him.
Daeron II’s children have four grandparents, Aegon IV, Naerys, an unnamed Martell and his unnamed wife. They have six great-grandparents, Viserys II, Larra Rogare, the unnamed Martell’s parents and his unnamed wife’s parents, and twelve great-great-grandparents, Daemon, Rhaenyra, Lysandro, his unnamed wife, an unnamed Martell, his unnamed wife, the unnamed parents of the previous Martell’s unnamed wife, and the unnamed parents of Myriah’s mother’s parents.
Baelor, Aerys I, Rhaegel and Maekar I: 22/28. Slightly Inbred.
Daeron, Aerion, Aemon, Daella, Aegon V and Rhae
Maekar I’s wife was Dyanna Dayne.
Their children have four grandparents, Daeron II, Myriah Martell, an unnamed Dayne and his unnamed wife. There are eight great-grandparents, Aegon IV, Naerys, an unnamed Martell, his unnamed wife, an unnamed Dayne, his unnamed wife and the unnamed parents of the previous Dayne’s unnamed wife. They have fourteen great-great-grandparents, Viserys II, Larra Rogare, the unnamed Martell’s parents, his unnamed wife’s parents, the unnamed Dayne’s parents, his unnamed wife’s parents, and the parents of Dyanna’s mother’s parents.
Daerion, Aerion, Aemon, Daella, Aegon V and Rhae: 26/28. Slightly Inbred. Our highest score so far, and only 2 great-great-grandparents away from not being inbred at all!
Duncan, Jaehaerys II, Shiera, Daeron and Rhaelle
Continuing the lack of incest, Aegon V married Betha Blackwood.
Their children have four grandparents, Maekar I, Dyanna Dayne, an unnamed Blackwood and his unnamed wife. They have eight great-grandparents, Daeron II, Myriah Martell, the unnamed Blackwood’s parents and his unnamed wife’s parents. They have sixteen great-great-grandparents, Aegon IV, Naerys, Myriah’s parents, Dyanna’s father’s parents and Dyanna’s mother’s parents.
Duncan, Jaehaerys II, Shiera, Daeron and Rhaelle: 28/28. Not Inbred! Wowzas!
Aerys II and Rhaella
A nosedive back into incest with siblings Jaehaerys II and Shiera marrying. We were doing so well.
Aerys II and Rhaella have two grandparents, Aegon V and Betha Blackwood, four great-grandparents, Maekar I, Dyanna Dayne, an unnamed Blackwood and his unnamed wife, and eight great-great-grandparents, Daeron II, Myriah Martell, an unnamed Dayne, his unnamed wife, the unnamed Blackwood’s parents and his unnamed wife’s parents.
Aerys II and Rhaella: 12/28. Fairly Inbred.
Rhaegar, Viserys and Daenerys
Again, siblings Aerys II and Rhaella married.
Rhaegar, Viserys and Daenerys have two grandparents, Jaehaerys II and Shiera, two great-grandparents, Aegon V and Betha Blackwood, and four great-great-grandparents, Maekar I, Dyanna Dayne, an unnamed Blackwood and his unnamed wife.
Rhaegar, Viserys and Daenerys: 8/28. Incredibly Inbred.
Conclusion
Two generations of Targaryens were Incredibly Inbred, five were Fairly Inbred, six were Slightly Inbred and only one was Not Inbred, with a general pattern of getting less inbred the further from Aegon I we got, until Aegon V’s kids weren’t inbred at all but then sharply returning to inbreeding with Jaehaerys II and Shiera and Aerys and Rhaella’s marriages.
So, actually, I was wrong. The Targaryens, whilst vastly more prone to inbreeding than the rest of the Houses, aren’t as inbred as they are made out to be.
(For fun, by the way, Daenerys and Jon’s children would earn a score of 14/28, Fairly Inbred. Sansa and Jon’s would be 20/28, Slightly Inbred.)
Have you guys noticed how much the internet/technology just does not listen to you anymore? I click “don’t show this artist” on Spotify and I get recommended a music video by them on the front page. I click “skip this update” on a pop up every time I open a file organization app and it’s right back there every time. I click unsubscribe on a newsletter and it keeps showing up in my inbox!! I click “delete my account” and the next time I open the website they suggest I “reactivate”.
