Thoughts on the Alysanne is Maegor's daughter AU? I feel like it has some interesting potential, and it vastly recontextualizes different parts of Jaehaehae (I do not like him sjsjsjs) and Alysanne's relationship (such as Jaehaehae's treatment of their daughters) but I wanna hear what you think about it!

I’ve touched on this a bit before but since you actually want to hear my thoughts, allow me to present to you my Jaehaerys Is The Goddamn Worst, And Alysanne Annoys Me Too: An Essay lmao but my answer is basically “yeah all of what you just said.”

I think it makes Alysanne much more palatable (to me) as a character because as she stands, she just fixates on forcing her daughters through these fucked up marriages at too young an age bc it traumatized her to be married and pregnant at 15 too but she’d never admit that being a willing participant in her own kidnapping by her brother-husband was the single worst thing that ever happened to her, and because Alysanne doesn’t want to admit it (and Jaehaerys would never see it as wrong or a mistake) F&B really shies away from delving into the fact that Alysanne is as deranged of a mother as Cersei is. So as she stands, she’s very flat to me because she’s presented very flatly and inconsistently. She’s so in love with Jaehaerys, she’s maritally raped by Jaehaerys, she’s a loving and doting mother, she forces her daughters into marriages when they’re the same too young age she was, she accuses her teenage girls of being scheming whores then gets angry when her husband accuses their teenage girls of being scheming whores, and worst of all we are just told “Maegelle tells them to make up so they do” so we don’t know why Alysanne gets over all of this. What is the point of riding a dragon when you never use that dragon to protect your daughters from unwanted teen marriages? We’re just not given a good enough justification for why her behavior is so weird and frustrating towards her daughters.

Make her Maegor’s daughter though…most of her behavior as an adult makes more sense. Like a worse version of Rhaenyra’s childhood almost - a father desperate for a son, but lowkey obsessed with his daughter, who makes all his hang ups about his parents the problems of every woman around him, except Maegor is out here blood sacrificing and torturing and starting wars and forcing babies on wives he discards quickly and brutally. Then here comes Jaehaerys on a white horse green dragon to save her from the horror her life has become, and he loves her so much he runs away with her even though Alyssa says they shouldn’t marry because people won’t like it. And they have beautiful children, and a beautiful marriage, and build a beautiful kingdom.

Then her pregnancies start getting dangerous. Gaemon, then Valerion, die. Alysanne thinks of the shriveled up mutants she called brothers, if Maegor’s taint has passed to her. Her perfect husband ignores her no, and forces Gael on her. Alysanne remembers that he said nothing to Rogar when Alyssa died, merely wept. Then her daughters start to die. Daella, Alyssa, Viserra, all within a few years. Then Jaehaerys makes Saera watch as he murders her boyfriend, calls her a whore, and says Alysanne cannot follow Saera to Lys. Alysanne thinks of Maegor torturing the Harroways over Alys’ presumed infidelity. Jaehaerys says he’s sorry, and her daughter badgers her into forgiving him, and she remembers how she helped Jaehaerys badger Alyssa into forgiving Rogar. Not two years later, Jaehaerys passes over Rhaenys. Alysanne thinks of how she was never enough for her father, how she felt so superior to Rhaena banished to Dragonstone and resented by Aerea, yet there she is dragging Gael away from court because she can’t stand to be with Jaehaerys. How her father was surrounded by dead women and dead babies and how Jaehaerys is surrounded by his own dead daughters, but surely she did the right thing, surely Maegor was worse, surely the realm is better off? Is he right to pass over Rhaenys? Is she enabling a man just as monstrous as her father? She will never decide, because Maegelle will guilt her about keeping Gael isolated at Dragonstone, and Alysanne will do as she’s told, just like Rhaena, and Alyssa, and Jeyne, Elinor, Ceryse, Alys, and Tyanna, just like every one of her daughters.

I do get why Alysanne is Alyssa & Aenys’ and not Maegor’s. The weird Targ babies, the line not descending from Visenya, Jaehaerys and Alysanne being held up as the perfect Targaryen couple specifically because they are brother and sister and dragon riders. I do even think canon Alysanne is likely traumatized by her time as a hostage on Dragonstone, and the ensuing war, and the trauma bond that caused with Jaehaerys, and it makes her idolize Jaehaerys, and then he isolates her at Dragonstone so he can swiftly and safely marry, groom, and knock her up. It’s not like,,,, a fun time, and it’s enough to make anyone crazy and weird about their daughters, but I think having her father be Maegor makes Alysanne herself much deeper because it gives her, as the most beloved Targaryen queen, a blood tie to the most hated Targaryen king, and a marriage to the most beloved Targaryen king. It fits better with a lot of the themes of the main series (again, imo) - forcing the spotlight on the outsiders to see how the affect the story from behind the scenes. The fall of Aegon’s sons, and The Long Reign, not told from the PoV or to serve the PoV of any of the kings or princes, but of the queen that tied them all together.

#anti jaehaerys i targaryen #f&b critical #fire and blood critical #asks #thesadboy #like he kind of does this with aenys & maegor by focusing on alyssa and rhaena and the wives and visenya. #but the Moment jaehaerys enters the scene he completely dominates it. the same way daemon and aemond do actually. #but this is not. it should not!! be their story. that’s not how the main series is told anyway!! #if f&b isn’t told by a dornish maester than it should have been written by a septa!!! #nuns wrote books!!!!! #rich noblewomen wrote novels and poetry!!!!!!! #GEORGE DO YOU READ WOMEN. I AM NO LONGER ASKING POLITELY. #i went to look for her mother and apparently this was just a mistake elio made and i’m even more depressed. i can’t believe i’m saying this #but elio damn your mind. #i bet he saw that and went ‘wait which one is her fucjing mother’ and george was like what in the goddamn hell are you talking about. #idk who would be her mother in this au. if we want to keep her within 3 ish years of jaehaerys it Has to be alys or ceryse. ceryse hightowe #is the hilarious and obvious choice. but don’t count out alys harroway second wife here either. #then there’s rhaena as her mother which with the canon timeline makes him 12 years older and isn’t THAT horrible let’s stop here actually.

Smiling on him, she beareth him to highest heaven

With yearning heart

June was the only woman older than Katara and Suki to show up and help the Gaang in the finale and I think that’s ridiculous. We could have seen Yagoda and the Herbalist in the White Lotus (and Miyuki!! She has a cute miniature lotus collar). Perhaps even Haru’s mom showing up somewhere??  IDK the lack of older ladies as respected guides and teachers is irksome and until further notice I’m headcanoning out of spite that they were there we just didn’t see their scenes but they were there dammit

#atla meta #look I love the old men #they are such blorbos #but Yagoda and Hama as teachers? #they really got the short end of the stick #Yagoda gets forgotten even when Katara becomes a successful healer bc Katara didn't want to go to her class therefore the class sucked #which is ass #and then Hama was a victim of the Fire Nation who began harming citizens and forced Katara to learn a perverse sub-bending ability #don't get me wrong I love the ideas for bloodbending especially the thought of it as a medical aid but the way it was introduced #and forcing Katara to learn it the way she did was traumatic to her #We get barely any lady teachers older than the girls in the Gaang and that's really sad #and this sort of ties into Ursa's lack of complete character and the lack of guiding maternal figures #and how there's hardly any mention of the wives and mothers in the FN royal family and their characters #whoops I'm starting to ramble

I am thinking abt goomens and gender stuff again bc quite honestly when am I not but I realized most of my very long thoughts could be boiled down into the sentence "Crowley is kind of a clocky broad and everyone hates her for it" so. Crowley is kind of a clocky broad and everyone hates her for it

#i May elaborate but also you should understand this inherently. i say this with absolutely nothing but love in my heart for her of Course #but in general goomer is very very good at revealing a lot of people's like. deeply rooted casual transphobia honestly LMAO #like i don't consider any nonhuman gomens characters to Be Trans in-universe but obviously out-of-universe there's an element #of transness. and the way people treat characters like crowley or beelzebub or muriel reaaaally reveals a Lot. and uh it sucks #people hate nonbinary people and especially hate nonbinary people who heavy quotes 'look male' or whatever. crazy! #open mick night #good omens #gomens #crowley #nanny ashtoreth #ineffable wives #i love clout i love clout. give me attention now

i am soooo soft for the 2017 little women’s jo/bhaer romance, ahhhh! 🥹

#couldn’t find a gifset to express my love so my paltry words will have to do #i really enjoy how this adaptation portrays the good wives-era stuff #nothing beats 94 for the little women stuff #but i really think this adaptation is under-appreciated #and all the casting is perfect! and it’s so pretty to look at! #dollsome's deep thoughts #little women 2017 #i also really like that this adaptation never really flirts with jo/laurie in the way the others do #i recognize that that makes me a weirdo and i accept that!

there’s not a single thought in my head but that scene where Rose hides behind Dorothy all sad because Blanche is staring daggers through her for snacking on her diet food by accident

#the golden girls #I cannot deal it’s my biggest weakness #the way Dorothy takes a moment to make sure she’s actually alright with one (1) look oh #SHE WAS SO UPSET SHE FELT SO BAD #rose you are so special to me and I love you #rose may be my favourite #she’s literally adorable how could anyone ever be upset with her #golden wives

also, my daddy issues take form in disliking masculine/fatherlike figures on sight so i think that's why i get physically ill when i hear about daddy kink

#sophie speaks #its NOT FOR ME!! #i still have a breeding kink but like #very specifically not in a daddy kink way #like i love my dad but... sometimes not very much #idk maybe its just me but i think men should love and treat their wives with respect and be considerate of their feelings and emotions #but maybe thats just the sapphic in me idk #dont look at my recent modern warfare obsession #the entirety of taskforce 141 are all girl dads who worship their wives like she hung the moon in the sky #see the reason i could never like a man is because they'd have to be obsessed with me for me to be even the slightest bit interested #why am i psychologically assessing myself on tumblr #wait i forgot its because i am clinically insane #i love my tumblr diary its great #i should show my tumblr to my psychiatrist (crazy) #what was any of this even about in the first place #right daddy kink hating i forgot #the dissociative disorder is dissociating

when you have a character that intrinsically has to choose his boy best friend over everything else because of the source text… it’s gonna look gay

#i mean Wilson is just John Watson #who in source text puts Sherlock above everything #so when you have to have a character choose his friend over his wife basically every time #it’s not going to make him look straight #Cant beat the gay allegations when it’s a central part to your character #doesn’t matter how many love interests or wives they give him #they even make him gayer than Watson tbh #extra homosexual behavior #the way he grooms his overprotectiveness the looks his behavior #hilson #hate crimes md
