The only thing I hate about Edward the Black Prince was his support for Pedro the Cruel, a man who wrongfully imprisoned his 14 year old bride Blanche of Bourbon for a decade before murdering her in an act of femicide.

Not only did fighting that evil maniac’s battles cause Edward to fall ill & die, which was traumatic for poor young Richard who wasn’t ready for the responsibility of King, leading to the destruction of his own bloodline… he helped that disgusting abomination Pedro’s bloodline thrive because of his bastard daughters’ marriages to Edward’s brothers.

Horrifying though but what if Hippodamia was punished in Tartarus by being forced to re-live the Chariot races…

May Welland (at least the movie version) did nothing wrong and I’ll die on that hill.

She gave Newland the chance to get out of their engagement, he didn’t take it & married her anyway. She had the right to care about her own reputation & status from there on after & protect her marriage by any means necessary. (And she did not baby-trap him! How can a woman baby-trap her own husband who had unprotected sex with her by his own free will)

[gaelthebard]

Rhaegar Targaryen is such a bitch that he makes Newland Archer look like a saint

[gaelthebard]

Catelyn Stark is a Hippodamia varient

[gaelthebard]

Depending on who died first would Aeacus even allow Hippodamia to have a decent afterlife considering his own tragedy of losing his illegitimate son mirroring Pelops & Chrysippus so closely?

Would he see too much of Endeïs in her?

You can tell if a Team Green fan is misogynistic and or not based on their opinion but of Queen Visenya Targaryen.

[gaelthebard]

The way the people talk about Rika, an 11 year old girl, is so misogynistic & dehumanizing (I’m not even exaggerating)

[gaelthebard]

Delusional bisexual prettyboy depressed slave owner Roque au Fabii would absolutely love Richard II of England & 14th President of the US Franklin Pierce.

[gaelthebard]

As a fictional tragedy enjoyer, I am not desensitized to real life tragedy at all ...but I almost wish I was (because it hurts so bad to grieve about events you had no connection to while other people can focus on themselves and their own goals and their own happiness)

spoilers for dark age and lb i think, just yapping

thinking about atlas x anastasia again

in my head they went to the insititute at the same time and they were teaming up on people even though they were at different houses. i think anastasia would be on mars while atlas would be on minerva or pluto...

i feel like they had the most tragic and long situationship since they were young. atlas probably tried making her a part of his plan, in fact, she was his first option.

he always blamed himself for her death. and every time he looked at lysander he saw anastasia through him.

i really think that a part of him died with her...

Getting into WMMAP and I can’t take anyone who ships Jennette with Ijekiel or Lucas seriously because she deserves better than them, she deserves to be someone’s first choice.

Not to mention Ijekiel is her cousin and Lucas is an old ass man whose relationship with Athy is only appropriate because Athy is a grown woman transmigrator.

Imagine if you got kidnapped at 16, had your ear cut off, and were so traumatized you became an addict to cope, subsequently leading to a stroke at 25 that leaves you a partially blind, unable to speak, and a quadriplegic,

and then less than a decade after you die, Hollywood commercializes your suffering by making a movie and TV show out it, only for people to write 23 fanfics on AO3 all shipping you with your kidnappers (not that shipping him with his groomer ex-wife who got knocked up at 25 while he was 17 is much better)

[gaelthebard]

Eleanor of Brittany & Blanche of Bourbon didn’t have their lives stolen from them by getting unfairly imprisoned until their deaths just for people to defend John Lackland & Pedro the Cruel

[gaelthebard]

The Remarried Empress could have been peak if Rashta was the main character and portrayed as a tragic heroine since Slavier and Heinazi Ketchup are as enjoyable as cornbread batter

(a sequel following Glorym/Motte could've been neat too)

[gaelthebard]

If I had a nickel for every time I saw a pink-haired lesbian character have her homosexuality denied by a significant portion of the fandom so they can ship her with a man,

I'd have 3 nickels. Which isn't a lot, but its weird that I've seen it happened 3 times.

[gaelthebard]

Daemon Targaryen fanboys are some of the most uneducated people in this fandom because why do so many of them insist on comparing him to Edward the Black Prince when John of Gaunt is right there?!

He’s not the celebrated war hero golden boy heir.

He’s the ambitious younger son with a shitty reputation who is in favor of misogynistic laws regularly yet becomes a feminist when it’s to his advantage by warring to put one of his wives on a royal throne so he could be consort while simultaneously cheating on that same wife with a lowborn girl.
