So I’m not part of Dracula Daily but I do get context from mutuals who do- what are your thoughts on the Queen dying not long after Van Helsing was introduced?
Friend, I want to thank you for this ask. It rendered me speechless.

thinking about how Aegon will constantly suffer from pain due to burns and broken legs, but he will always take Jaehaera on his lap and hold her as long as she wants, and he will ignore the agony in his body, because he will intend to compensate for all the time that he was an absent father with his only remaining child before he goes to his sons, brothers and wife-sister.

Time Travel Question : Murder and Disappearance Edition I
Given that Judge Crater, Roanoke, and the Dyatlov Pass Incident are credibly solved, though not 100% provable, I'm leaving them out in favor of things ,ore mysterious. I almost left out Amelia Earhart, but the evidence there is sketchier.
Some people were a little confused. Edward V and Richard of Shrewsbury are the Princes in the Tower.

Okay, but if one of the Targtower children gets sick, Alicent will be the one who tries to find the best, most proven medicine, because she's from Oldtown. And Criston is more familiar with traditional medicine because of his background, so he's like, "Need to breathe on potatoes."

there is something so heartbreaking in the way vessel sings, “there is always something in the way, i want to have you to myself for once” in vore.
the cadence is so forlorn, exhausted of the barriers that have made it impossible to connect with this other person, and the melody dramatically adds to it. the way the track falls away from the screaming vocals, breaking into staccatos of piano and guitar, and gives way to the song’s thesis— frustration in not having enough of a person and the all-consuming nature of being isolated in love. it’s absolutely phenomenal and heartbreaking.
the song feels like submitting to the grief of being lonely in love and all of the anger, heartache, and anguish that goes with it.
it’s a fantastic portrayal of what it feels like to love someone who is unable to receive and/or reciprocate the love that you have for them and i believe that the line, “i want to have you to myself for once” encapsulates it perfectly. wanting someone you love to yourself— untethered from what encumbers them in this life— so that you may finally connect with them is a sorrow many are severely familiar with. it is aching and rage-inducing enough to make someone scream from the frustration and pain they feel.
the song makes it a point to highlight that pain in a single, cutting question: are you in pain like i am?

It's nice to see Aegon's willingness to accept the war and his promise to pay it back the enemies a hundred times over. but what's even nicer is knowing that he will actually do it.

aegon: aemonddddd i bet you can't make a sentence without the letter "a"
aemond: you thought you were doing something here, didn't you? well, i'm sorry to burst your bubble, but it's quite simple to construct multiple sentences without using the letter you mentioned.
aegon: oh damn-
aemond: don't interrupt me. i'm not going to stop. how long will i pull this off for? weeks? months? who knows. not you.
