I am cursed. Everyday I think about the shot where Aegon slides in at 0:04. For whatever reason I think it's hilarious. I love this edit, but these few seconds are branded into my brain
I was asking that and I remember he was more mysoginistic than power hungry. Alicent marrying viserys give him an open door to immediatly and directly having the throne if there was any futur problem he planned to do what he did since there
probably bc Gwayne has nothing. no army no lands he is not a heir of Oldtown. Alicent is a woman and her value is her body [ chilbirth ] For marriage Viserys is the best match for Alicent but Gwayne is not good enough for Rhaenyra. Viserys has no problem to marry a babygirl with big doe eyes [ except moment he stolen his daughter's friend lol ] but Rhaenyra would never agree to marry... poor man...like Harwin was a heir of Harrenhall, the largest caslte in the whole westeros, that's good enough, I think
this was sooo much fun! the idea of these two has been stuck in my head ever since I read one (and only that exist so far) fic with them as pair. you did an absolutely brilliant job with the editing and most especially with creating all the beautiful manips
There are more fics with them on AO3. "The blood that binds" and "The princess and her knight (an act of love out of duty)" but these aren't finished. And there is "A common kind of grief" that is finished but it's not focused on romance, and Rhaenyra in there is kind of an OC. But is a great read.
@@aceinthecase yeah that started post s2 after gweyne had official casting and proper screentime. The one I referred to was the first ever written (which happened during s1 when gweyne was referenced for 2 seconds during the first episode) but I'm glad they're getting more fics. Crackships are fun
Ikr! Young Rhaenyra seems to own the Rhaegon edit community and it makes me sorta mad, like I swear we built this ship from the Luke court scene?? People let's not forget our roots! Emma D'Arcy and Tom Glynn Carney are our parents! THEY were the ones to put the work in (unintentionally but come on) to make this go from crack!ship to everyones guilty pleasure
hmm what about; after Leanord 'died' Alicent caught Rhae sneaking up with kids from the palace, and King to shut up any suspicious about Rhae being one behind Leanor death decided that marrying Rhae and Aegon is the best decision? (ideas for scenes; aegon sitting on a throne and adult Rhae standing next to him. Vaemond calling Rhae's sons bastard and Aegon command taking his head off bc hes spilling lies. )
OMG THE MANIPS WERE SO STUNNING??! 🥺 what I can't find in fics you delivered. bless you 🙌 the editing is truly wonderful. I'm so glad that you like these characters and this trio and we get so many amazing edits from you 💕
