I cannot fucking get over how mean Walter is to Jesse. Not even in a funny way, he says the most intentionally hurtful things that have made me gasp in pure shock. Jesse could say, "I think the moon is pretty" and Walter will scoff in disbelief at the idea of Jesse liking something for being pretty as if he's this subhuman freak incapable of enjoying something aesthetically. And he'll say something like, "Just because it's white doesn't mean it's cocain, you druggie. You can't snort it." And then I fucking hate him and forget that Bryan Cranston is a lowkey dilf.
Aegon's and Alicent's relationship makes me insane actually. He's her destiny. The reason she wakes up everyday and the reason she struggles to get up in the morning. The source of her greatest pain; the fact that she was locked in a castle and made out to squeeze heirs. But her greatest comfort too; that it may all be worth it, that maybe all her pain and misery weren't for nothing, if he actually ascends to the throne. He's an utter disappointment because he doesn't want it. He doesn't want what he was made for and that infuriates her to no end. Because how dare he? How dare he deny his own destiny? How dare he deny the thing that he was made to do? She didn't! She fulfilled her duty and took pride in doing so and so would he! Else it was all for nothing. All her suffering was for nothing. She brought him into this world with clear instructions, and yet he denies her teachings, driving her up the wall and pushing all her buttons by ignoring her all the time in favor of doing anything else but the thing he was made to do.
But she loves him. She loves this fucked up little creature that was born out of pain. The little boy that looked his mother in the face and thought himself a product of pain and suffering (because he is). The thing that has turned itself into a beast because he thought himself unlovable and yet she loves that which is unlovable anyways. Because he's her son. He's hers. Her first son and her last. And she would do anything for him. She will NOT tell him she loves him in his face because she can't bring herself to do so but she WILL stand in front of a dragon for him. Because vile as he is, she loves him.
