Everything with Em

A little of this, a little of that, a lot of sass

House of the Dragon S1E9 Thoughts

  1. Alicent understands nothing.
  2. The king is dead. Long live the Queen…we all know that won’t happen.
  3. Who is this child?
  4. Who found him first, I wonder. The child?
  5. HE DIDN’T SAY THAT ALICENT.
  6. I SWEAR.
  7. How convenient for you. No witnesses.
  8. Oh, Tayla is sending a message with the candles that the king is dead.
  9. Viserys the Peaceful. More like Viserys the Stand Back and Watcher.
  10. HE DIDN’T
  11. AHHHHHH
  12. And no one finds is suspicious that the king, who was adamant that Rhaenyra take the throne, would change his mind at the last second.
  13. This lord is the only one with a brain at this table.
  14. WHAT THE….
  15. Criston really just killed the only person there with any integrity.
  16. Criston is a murdering fiend at this point. He’s even willing to fight his commander.
  17. Oh, lovely. Let’s just sit with this dead body at the table as his blood slowly seeps across it.
  18. I mean, Criston just killed someone and none of you really batted an eye.
  19. SEND HIM TO THE WALL ANYWAY
  20. Go Lord Commander! Someone else has a brain there.
  21. And they let him leave? Even though he knows everything?
  22. Aegon is probably out at a brothel.
  23. Also, Helaena is the one with a brain too.
  24. What beast beneath the boards?
  25. WHAT BEAST?
  26. Why do the knights listen to Otto over the Queen?
  27. They really locked Rhaenys in?
  28. And all the servants who know about the king’s death are locked up too. And yet no one finds that suspicious?
  29. Criston literally killed someone earlier. And yet you still trust him?
  30. Aegon is a prick.
  31. And Aemond is in his imposter cloak, like Daemon’s.
  32. So, where is Aegon hiding out?
  33. And if you don’t pledge, then you get locked up.
  34. And again, none of the other lords find that concerning?
  35. Does that girl work for Mysaria?
  36. I’m sorry. Is this a child fighting pit?
  37. Aegon’s kid is there, watching the damn fighting pits. And they want him as king?
  38. Oh, I sense some animosity amongst the multiple sets of brothers.
  39. Oh, lots of trouble here.
  40. Yep, she works for Mysaria.
  41. Ruling through fear. Doing great, Otto.
  42. What does Larys really want?
  43. So, Alicent really did care for Viserys.
  44. Alicent really thinks Rhaenys will switch sides. After she was not allowed to take the throne she was in line for.
  45. DOWN WITH THE PATRIARCHY
  46. Oh, Otto came out of the castle.
  47. Mysaria knows all.
  48. YES MYSARIA
  49. End the child fighting.
  50. Otto, looking is not doing.
  51. Honestly, the women in this show actually run things. The men just make a mess.
  52. Aegon really doesn’t want to be king. Forcing him on the throne won’t make things better for anyone.
  53. Look at the King’s Guard already fighting each other. And it’s not even at Rhaenyra’s request.
  54. At least Aegon knows he isn’t suited for the throne.
  55. Aemond thought about it.
  56. Can’t Aegon just say he doesn’t want the throne? He has to accept being king but he can just, not.
  57. Finally, Alicent is trying to act like a queen.
  58. And Aegon is trying to run away, again, probably.
  59. I would not expect Otto to listen to Alicent. I’m sure he has other plots going on.
  60. Why did Alicent take off her shoes?
  61. Larys is staring at her feet and I’m very distrubed.
  62. Larys wants to get rid of Mysaria so he can be the leader of the spies.
  63. JESUS
  64. Is this their deal? I hate it.
  65. Yeah, Aegon looks thrilled to be king.
  66. I wonder how Rhaenys gets out of King’s Landing.
  67. Oh, Sir Erryk is getting her out. Good for him.
  68. And there’s Lord Caswell, who was trying to honor his oath.
  69. What about her dragon?
  70. Shouldn’t he take off his white cloak? He stands out.
  71. Yeah, Aegon doesn’t believe a word of this.
  72. You imbecile. A term of endearment.
  73. The people of King’s Landing won’t like all this pushing by the knights.
  74. There is no way all the people can hear Otto talking.
  75. Imagine if Aegon was taller. He could have been hit by those swords.
  76. Is Rhaenys going to the dragonpit? Because this is the perfect time to do so.
  77. Damn, Helaena was not ready to bend the knee to Aegon. And we kow Aemond doesn’t want to.
  78. The people would cheer for anyone to be crowned, I feel like.
  79. Crap. Now Aegon likes having power. This won’t go well.
  80. YES RHAENYS
  81. That is how you make a dramatic exit.
  82. Wait. They crowned him at the dragonpit and didn’t expect issues with dragons. Geniuses.
  83. Rhaenys really said mic drop.
  84. Alicent, I’m pretty sure anything you say to Rhaenys won’t make a diffference.
  85. You know, Helaena was right. There was a beast beneath the boards.
  86. Did Alicent really think Rhaenys was going to dracarys them? I mean, she should have. It would save a lot of trouble later.
