both aegon and rhaenyra are surrounded by rats to the point where you'd think, "oh, this must be their nest. finally, the home their father built" except it's literally the most hostile place imaginable for a rat to build a nest. and it makes you wonder, because rats are actually very good at building nests when they're given decent materials, a safe enclosure, and the right environment. but these rats are trapped in a hostile place. they can't build one, not because they don't know how, but because they have no power to. everything around them works against them. no nest for you. keep wandering in search of food instead. put yourself in danger. let yourself be seen scavenging. be chased off. be told to go away. you're not welcome here

In the other [1979] profile, in Vogue, [Toni] Morrison spoke of a white American reader who had "told her how difficult it was to understand black culture in her books—it was so removed from his experience." She had responded: "Boy, you must have had a hell of a time with Beowulf!" The Vogue interviewer, missing the wit in this retort, went on to comment: "Morrison has no patience with people who plead ignorance; but then, she does not pride herself on being a patient woman. 'I find myself being more and more difficult,' she says. 'It's something I really relish.'" Even Morrison's literary difficulty and the pleasure she took in it was translated here into personal difficulty, a moral failing: How dare she be impatient! Well, wouldn't you be?
