#It'd even be fun to give them a potential romance only for them to realize they just don't vibe like that

Me last year: Sure, I'd like some Dipcifica in Triangulum
Me now: Hmm. Well, I'd still like SOME but I actually don't know what'll happen with them by the end of the fic.

What are your favorite Dany ships?
I dont really ship Dany with anyone. She's a romantic character and she longs for a partner that will love her regardless of her past but I've always interpreted this as her wishing for a family as well. She equates marriage and romantic love with family bc she doesn't believe she can have children and all of her family has died. Her last chance at family is through marriage but "who could ever love a dragon." I think it'd be pretty beautiful for her to find a family (like her literal nephews) and have that found family love. She's never experienced pure familial love and, imo, Dany finding that would be much more poignant then finding romantic love. I'm always gonna choose a found family trope over anything else lol.
I like Dany and Daario, I think it's massively overhated and Daario is villainized by the fandom even though he's no more violent than any other male character. Of course I'd like Dany/Daario is they were closer in age but I like that Daario is clearly her mistress and is just a fun time. It's a very lust-fueled and youthful romance. It's not great but it's overhated and I like the version of it that exists in my head a lot. There's also some potential exploration of Dany's trauma here with how she compared Daario to Drogo in one of their first encounters. It's like she's trying to recreat her first traumatic sexual experiences except this time she is in control, she initiates the sex, she is the one with power. Can't ignore that all of this was started when Jorah molested her and she suddenly began to have sexual urges, like the molestation triggered her into seeking out what she experienced with Drogo again. I feel like grrm could've done more with their relationship in that regard but Dany actively avoids looking too closely at her wounds. At some point though, she's gonna have to get over that. If grrm had my vision then Dany would have pegged Daario the first time they fucked.
Dany/Tyrion is also a good ship imo but, again, I wish they were closer in age lol. That's just my personal preference but it is what it is. I'm happy with them being platonic as well esp considering they can be the loving siblings they never had. I love found family dynamics, I love healing from generational pain, I love the heartache and relief of realizing 'this is how family is supposed to love.'
I'm not into Jonerys or Dany/FAegon. I dont, like, hate those ships but I'm pretty ambivalent about them. *Could* be interesting but we'll see. grrm is a very good writer (when he wants to be) and all that so whatever he decides, it'll probable be good. For me, personally, Dany and Jon being a family and accepting each other as their family is way more interesting than some soulmate driven romance. Dany and Young Griff have so much potential as a platonic pairing to me too.
I dont really think about any other Dany ships that much honestly. Dany/[insert any woman character here] is obviously perfect. Seriously wish grrm would explore Dany's sexuality more but I doubt he will at this point.
Dany/Jhogo is the superior ship but there's very little to go on bc grrm refuses to give any of the bloodriders interiority or personality. It is the ship that had the most potential tho, if only grrm could try to care about the nonwhite characters that have been by Dany's side since day 1.
edit: wrote some more thoughts about different Dany ships here if you're interested

The Jerry’s inaction be that he couldn’t perfectly recreate his and Teresa’s meeting and that could have wild potentially cataclysmic effects through the butterfly effect
So I don't think it'd be about recreating I think it'd be like.
More like the sideplot they started to have with Theresa for about five minutes but expand on it instead?
So like.
This version of Jerry never fell in love(at least long-term love), and has had his Full Magic for about 20 years, spending all that time as a cool bachelor having fun with his powers.
When some kids come up to him and tell him about another Timeline where he gave up his powers for some girl and is now a father of three who spends his time running a subway shop, he's.... not going to really like that.
Like the kids' story makes plenty of sense to him, and he can see a theoretical family resemblance, and they know things that would only make sense if they knew him.
But he goes in denial because he likes the life he has and he can't imagine giving that up for something so mundane as being a normal Human with a wife and kids.
However
While the kids go on the adventure for the Stone of Dreams, he runs into Theresa. And the two of them hit it off really well and are basically starting a little bit of a romance.
It doesn't click until one of the kids shows up again and accidentally calls Theresa 'mom'. Even though they recover and play it off, he realizes that Theresa is the woman that, in the kids' reality, he had fallen in love with.
And the thing is that he can see it now.
Like. To him, this is currently just a beginning sparks of a romance. But with that added in, he could see himself potentially falling more and more in love with Theresa to the point that he'd give up his Magic to be with her and to have kids and run a sub shop. It makes more sense to him now.
And that's the point where he decides to help the kids figure shit out
