who cares if you don't fully "get" the weird postmodernist novel on your first read, or if the experimental arthouse film is opaque to you on your first viewing? you are not being graded. you are not being scored. there is value in the attempt. every time i've read House of Leaves or watched Blue Velvet, I've gotten something new from it. the idea that you might not "get" something and therefore shouldn't bother with it is so silly to me

Most beautiful scene I've ever seen in my life
"As the power shifts, and Rhaenyra starts to gain more power, it starts to ebb with Alicent. There's always this like, you know, invisible umbilical cord holding them together." - Olivia Cooke for The Hollywood Reporter

VHAGAR and MELEYS 2.04 "The Red Dragon and the Gold"
Dreams didn't make us kings. DRAGONS did.
Aemond Targaryen – House of the Dragon – 2.02–2.03 (insp) The Fallen Angel by Alexandre Cabanel produced in 1847
“But from those ashes, only Vhagar rose unharmed.”
alicent criticism often strikes me as having the same vibes as the people watching a horror movie and going "i would have never done that, the characters died because they made stupid choices, i would have easily survived". alicent had her life stolen from her when she was a teenager forced to marry an old man and have his children. it's something so horrible that i feel like a large amount of people (and some characters, like rhaenyra) simply can't fit it into their worldview that something like that can just happen to you and instead go "well if that was me then it wouldn't have fundamentally destroyed me as a person. in her situation i would've turned out fine and my poison wouldn't be dripping through. i would easily be a good mother". i saw some people found it a stupid writing choice that rhaenyra thought alicent could stop the war because it is "obvious" that alicent has no control over what is going on, but i think that failure to see the real horror of alicent's situation is what destroyed their friendship and drove them apart. from the beginning rhaenyra thought alicent was choosing to marry her father. in return alicent failed to see the way rhaenyra was being targeted for grooming by daemon. i think they both engaged in victim blaming because "my friend is acting hurtful towards me, so i'm mad" is actually easier to deal with emotionally than "my friend had her entire life and personhood stolen from her and so have i"
The whole "Alicent doesn't love her children" is not even true. She's unable to manifest her emotions because no one taught her how to, her father never treated with love, not even respect. She probably resents them for being the result of a loveless marriage. She views them as her having done her duty.
And yet she stood in front of a fucking dragon who was about to burn her alive to protect Aegon, she looked at it straight in the eyes with her body shielding her son. Even Rhaenys started respecting her after that, and Rhaenys doesn't give away her respect for free, ask Daemon about it.
