rhaenyra and laenor truly created such a beautiful queer family that grew to understand and love one another. rhaenyra came into that marriage out of painful relationships with criston, alicent, viserys and daemon, holding the same harsh judgements towards laenor as the rest of society. only for laenor to open his arms towards her, to respect her relationship with harwin, to love their children. he stood by her side and never once made her face the world alone. laenor looked at her and said "i will be your partner in all the ways that i can be and never ask more of you than i myself can give." he did that. he did.

it took years but rhaenyra placed a child in his arms, named for the man whose memory laenor carried, and said "i will give back what the world has taken from you." she honored him. she honored his heart. they loved each other. it was always love.

Completed in 2012, Serpent d’océan is a giant aluminum sea serpent skeleton by artist Huang Yong Ping, situated off the shore of the Loire River where it empties into the Bay of Biscay just outside of Nantes, France.

Measuring nearly 425 feet (130 meters) in length the curving skeleton mirrors the curves of the nearby Saint-Nazaire bridge and was created as a permanent work for the final Estuaire contemporary art exhibition in 2012.

House of the Dragon Lore!

According to Fire & Blood, every single member of the court is intensely horny for Harwin Strong. Regardless of sexuality, relationship status, or political faction, any person to go within a hundred yards of the Red Keep or otherwise encounter Harwin Strong’s beautiful, beautiful eyes is described as invariably head-over-heels in love with Ser Harwin. Here’s a couple of quotes from the text and surrounding sources:

“Like, I’m straight,” the King is reported to have said, “but I get it, dude. I definitely get it… I wish he carried me like that.”

- King Viserys I Targaryen, after the wedding of Laenor and Rhaenyra, as described by Septon Eustace, Fire & Blood Chapter XIIS: The Heirs of the Dragon Addendum - On How Hot Harwin Strong Was

“We actually had the budget for twelve episodes, but we just kept shooting shots of Ryan [Corr] over and over again. Altogether, spent ten million dollars on that. Directors, crew, writers, even - just letting the camera shoot, wasting film, standing around just staring - all of that. Three separate people proposed to Ryan on set. I’m still hoping he reconsiders and accepts mine.”

- Clare Kilner, director, House of the Dragon (2022) episodes 4 and 5

“I think it’s known that the first scene I ever wrote or imagined for A Song of Ice and Fire was when the Starks find the direwolves in book one, but what people don’t know is that the first character I ever conceived was Harwin Strong - well, back then he was Hot Harwin Strong, but eventually realized that the attractiveness was already implied enough in the name. When I first gave my publishers the book, in fact, they told me they couldn’t publish it - it was four hundred pages of an intricate, dark fantasy story and another thirteen hundred pages describing how hot Harwin Strong was and how everyone was attracted to him. So I had to cut out the parts about Harwin and that’s how we got A Game of Thrones. Luckily, however, that got popular enough that I can finally publish Harwin Strong: Hottest Knight in Westeros on its own. Winds may get delayed, but I think that’s a price we can all accept.”

- George R.R. Martin, author of the A Song of Ice and Fire series and the Harwin Strong Diaries: Firsthand Accounts of the Most Attractive Man Ever
