No, but Alicent and Rhaenyra in 3x03 fuck me up because suddenly they're in the roles they were always supposed to have. They were supposed to live in the Red Keep together, Rhaenyra was supposed to be queen of the Seven Kingdoms and Alicent was supposed to be her closet confidant and advisor instead of Viserys'. This is the ideal future their pilot selves would've been too cautious to hope for. But so much has happened in between then and now, so much that can't be undone, years of resentment, distrust, betrayal, hate, death and carnage, with more to come, and it's ruined this victory for them. Things have never been more right but it's still all wrong and it's too late to fix it. It is odd to be here with you, indeed.
