some of you are weird asf abt acknowledging the layers to this scene. yes i agree Viserys is a POS, but that does not negate the fact that she loved her dad, ntm 2/3 days prior to this he dragged his dying self to stand up & protect her & her kids, who she loves most

yes, she’s hurt at Alicent’s betrayal, but she’s receiving blow after blow in this scene, while her body sends itself into early labor.

i see ppl do this all the time w her character and how ppl act like bc they don’t like certain characters that are around her means she doesn’t care or love them? bffr, you have to acknowledge her feelings towards the characters you don’t like

@promisedtarg daemon’s groomed rhaenyra so much that whatever he does to her now, she will still cling onto him. abandoned her twice, was absent when she gave birth to visenya, strangled her, yet softly took her hand in the last scene and she said nothing.
