#can you tell my excitement is fading as i clock back into reality damnnn

[eye twitching] yeah it's fine that i've spent the last year and a half trying to convince people that house of the dragon should not be reduced down to "teams" or medieval euphoria because in reality it's supposed to be a complex, borderline shakespearean, poetic tragedy about the downfall of dragons and their royal line, highlighting how war corrupts and destroys even the strongest of us; representing a critique on monarchy, patriarchy, familial violence and trauma. [eye twitches extra hard] and then hbo just went ahead and released "team green" & "team black" trailers. yeah no it's totally fine im calm about it [eye continues twitching]

#i like that we got more footage that way but damn. truly the LOWEST hanging fruit and fuels how absolutely stupid people are gonna be #house of the dragon #hotd #rhaenyra targaryen #alicent hightower #i can see the 'teams' in people's bios now. nothing will save us from the narrative reduction i fear #what absolute stupidity #can you tell my excitement is fading as i clock back into reality damnnn
