Half the time I donāt think Jon even has a Valyrian name because 1.) Rhaegar did not want another son, he wanted his Visenya, and there was already his little brother having the male form of Visenya as his name. 2.) why the fuck would Lyanna be able to pull a male targ name out of her ass while she was dying?
However, with that said. Jon being an Aemon or Jaehaerys? Lame. Surface level. I must hold the line of Jon being a Daemon truther.
The callbacks to Catelynās fear of Daemon Blackfyre vs Daeron the good happening with Robb and Jon. The Themes TM with how Robb, Jon, and Sansa all seem obsessed with Aemon, Naerys, Daeron II, and Daemon. Jonās entire:
āHe wanted it, Jon knew then. He wanted it as much as he had ever wanted anything. I have always wanted it, he thought, guiltily. May the gods forgive me. It was a hunger inside him, sharp as a dragonglass blade.ā
āWhen Jon had been very young, too young to understand what it meant to be a bastard, he used to dream that one day Winterfell might be his. Later, when he was older, he had been ashamed of those dreams. Winterfell would go to Robb and then his sons, or to Bran or Rickon should Robb die childless. And after them came Sansa and Arya. Even to dream otherwise seemed disloyal, as if he were betraying them in his heart, wishing for their deaths. I never wanted this, he thought as he stood before the blue-eyed king and the red woman. I loved Robb, loved all of them ⦠I never wanted any harm to come to any of them, but it did. And now thereās only me. All he had to do was say the word, and he would be Jon Stark, and nevermore a Snow. All he had to do was pledge this king his fealty, and Winterfell was his.ā
āThat morning he called it first. āIām Lord of Winterfell!ā he cried, as he had a hundred times before. Only this time, this time, Robb had answered, āYou canāt be Lord of Winterfell, youāre bastard-born. My lady mother says you canāt ever be the Lord of Winterfell.ā
āWinterfell, he thought. Theon left it burned and broken, but I could restore it. Surely his father would have wanted that, and Robb as well. They would never have wanted the castle left in ruins.ā
Jon wants as Daemon Blackfyre wanted, as Daemon Targaryen wanted. There is a hungry wolf inside the boy that twists in bone deep jealousy.
