House of the Dragon 1x10 | "The Black Queen" Reaction

[@itsthatgirl98_]

19:37 The war begins with the death of Lucerys Velaryon. Daemon writes to Rhaenyra saying "An eye for an eye, a son for a son, Lucerys shall be avenged"

[@BeautyandtheBeard1]

This war is going to be wild!!

[@VanArchon]

Rhaenyra's daughter was stillborn because of cord strangulation, so there was nothing that could have been done. Ser Erryk didn't just steal any crown, he specifically stole her father's crown, which was also worn by his grandsire, Jaehaerys I. The true tragedy of Lucerys' death is that it was an occasion where being a dragonrider actually worked against both him and Aemond. Since rider and dragon share an empathic bond. Arrax being a young and small dragon, was probably feeling anxious and scared which was then amped by feeling Luke's own fear and anxiety so fight or flight kicked in and it turned out to be fight, hence attacking Vhagar. In turn, Vhagar was amped by Aemond's anger and cruelty compounded by this little shit dragon attacking her?! how dare he! *chomp*

[@daniellylima5568]

The daemon put his hand on Rhaenyra was it because of the prophecy because viserys didn't tell him (this doesn't exist in the books the Writers vented in the series) I understand the fight we both have because they don't talk like that on the same page, make the daemon put his hand on Rhaenyra, I think that was over the top, it wasn't necessary and the moment the daemon lets go of rhaenyra, you can see in the eyes of the daemon and Rhaenyra that they are both suffering and Rhaenyra says she never told you that and she smirks because she's realizing that the viserys chose her as heir to the throne because viserys didn't tell the daemon and Rhaenyra thought viserys had told him because the daemon had 10 years as heir and Viserys and after those 10 years, viserys never told him so he keeps imagining in the daemon's head how my brother who i loved so much never trusted me right now the daemon must be very hurt because daemon always wanted to show his worth to viserys and he loves his brother the daemon and a person who he has a hot head, he is proud, but he also has feelings, but sometimes he ends up expressing it wrong, then the daemon loses another child because he already lost one, then he discovers that his brother died Then later he discovers that his brother never trusted him and that it hurts his heart and daemon is feeling all of this but he ends up putting everyone else these feelings in rhaenyra who is not to blame it's the moment he lets go she sees his eyes of sadness and before he leaves if you notice he looks down he looks at her belly Then he remembers the daughter they lost, Daemon didn't stay with Rhaenyra because he didn't want to make the same choice he made with Laena the daemon has truama in fact the daemon always had for those who don't know the daemon's mother died in childbirth so the daemon already has a trauma because he never wanted to have children, so the daemon didn't want to be with Rhaenyra so he wouldn't make the same choice there when Rhaenyra loses the child Rhaenyra Stays with the daughter since the daemon goes to the beach to suffer there that reminded me in the first episode of the throne scene there is a daemon and viserys is the daemon tells viserys that each person suffers in a different way, and it reminds me of the scene the two are suffering each alone but rhaenyra and daemon are grieving for their daughter unfortunately we didn't see much of the other side of the daemon this season because the writers and HBO preferred not to show in my opinion the most wronged is Matt Smith Mano he made several scenes of the daemon showing the sentimental side of the daemon him hugging his daughters is him on the beach grieving for the death of his daughter with Rhaenyra and he spends hours and hours on the floor grieving for visenya's death and we simply received in this episode just a quick scene of him grieving for his daughter in the book it says a lot that the daemon is a great father and that he loved his two Wives Laena and Rhaenyra unlike the series which showed very little and I think it's really sad because they're not showing the real daemon Of course he's hot headed and he's crazy but man he loves his family he would never hurt his family until the actor himself says that the daemon would give his life for Viserys is Rhaenyra and very sad what they are doing to this character. The scene at the end was matt's idea he had an idea that who should break the news of luke's death should be the daemon there the writers and emma give up the idea there they did, if you notice it at the time of the scene when daemon enters in the room rhaenyra's attention goes all to the daemon because she knows that something has happened and on the way the daemon is approaching rhaenyra you notice that he puts a hand on his face indicating that he cried there when he got closer to rhaenyra he didn 't even be able to look us in her eyes 2:19 Daemon thinks that viserys was murdered because the greens made Aegon king right away and saved all the people in prison, not to mention that viserys is dead and this is all suspect, so of course Daemon or anyone else will think that viserys was murdered because the greens hid the death of viserys and they quickly put Aegon on the throne and when that nobody says Nothing to Rhaenyra so it's very suspicious so I understand Daemon's side of he's upset and angry is that now he wants revenge is we can't forget that Daemon and Rhaenyra are in Mourning but I also understand Rhaenyra's side of not wanting to go to war, what She was doing is right, a king has to keep the peace and Rhaenyra was trying everything not to go to the war and not having blood But now it's too late now it's war Rhaenyra has lost many things and now she has to fight for her Throne and for the lives of her children 2:58 what Rhaenyra said in that scene to me doesn't make sense she said that Daemon is crazy and that he's fighting his own war if you remember right in episode 7 Rhaenyra tells Daemon that she needs him and that she couldn't do this to herself , so she's asking him for help, here comes this scene where Rhaenyra says Daemon is waging his own war for me It doesn't make sense, Daemon is protecting his family, he's doing what she asked him to do in episode 7, I think it was a Script Hole because it doesn't make sense in my opinion 5:58 This scene with Rhaenyra was very beautiful, you can see that it was very different from Aegon, the two scenes are different, the music in both scenes is very good, no one can deny that, in the scene with Aegon, no one gets on their knees for him, in the scene with Rhaenyra everyone they get on their knees because she is the true heir to the Iron Throne, and I also noticed the reference in episode 8 when the crown of viserys fell and it was Daemon who placed the crown on viserys and now it is Daemon putting the crown on his wife his Queen 8:06 Refers to Episode 2 the difference is that in episode 2 Rhaenyra was on Otto's side but now in this scene Rhaenyra is on Daemon's side 9:03 Refers to Episode 1 When Rhaenyra rips a piece out of the Book and gives it to Alicent My favorite characters I have several more my favorite characters in first place and second place is Daemon and Rhaenyra, what are your favorite characters? I hope you can here on your channel your reaction From the second season of House of the Dragon

[@tieonariley22]

Omg yes you made it to the finally! now the dance of the dragon will begin , the fact that rhaenrya couldn’t even process everything that had happened all at once while trying to still think rational , she lost everything in a snap of a short time , her father , the throne ,the friendship that was just about to be rekindled ,her still born daughter , and her sweet boy luke smh 💔 i teared up during that birth scene it was so hard to watch omg my shattered for rhae 😢😭💔 Aemond thought he had the upper hand on thinking it was fun and games to chase a baby dragon with an old war dragon that was not playing around and just to show what viserys said in episode 1 “ the idea that we control dragons is an illusion” now he is a kinslayer and alicent will be pissed/scared and rhae is coming for that ass now no more being civil it’s war time!😭💀💔😤😡 this was a fun ride watching you guys react to this I’ll see ya in the next season for the time being I’m going to read the whole book collection of asoiaf that I just got for my bday ☺️ you guys are amazing stay blessed and keep doing what you love!❤️😉🫶🏾✨💕

[@kellifranklin4432]

This was such a good finale. I know a lot of people were upset when Daemon grabbed Rhaenyra but I think I understood his frustration. He already knew there was going to be a war with no peaceful solution and she was echoing her father's outlook on things. While she wasn't ready for war then she's ready now. The losing control over both dragons threw me for a loop. I absolutely cannot wait for season two but I'm going to watch it with y'all! Great reaction guys.

You have to understand that the main part of the story REALLY begins with the actual start of the war(dance of the dragons). Everything that we’ve seen leading up to the 2nd to last scene in the final episode, is so that when we get to the 2nd season, you really feel ALL of the tragedy and betrayals. They could’ve started the series with just 1 episode to explain how we got to this point, then right into the war…..but that would be just more of the GOT last 2 seasons rushed bs. Who wants to go through that again? Not me! I love the slow play of this season and how the writers knew from the get go, a rushed season would not be forgiven by the fans. They were/are determined NOT to make that same mistake this time around.

[@BeautyandtheBeard1]

Definitely don't want them to rush through this show. We haven't read the books so we go in blind each time. All we know, it's about to pop off!! Thanks for tuning in Dizz!

This show is about the dance of the dragons. S1 was a build to get to that. A lot of time was already jumped through episodes to get to the point of war. You just can't jump into something in the first season.

[@BeautyandtheBeard1]

True. We were just eager to see more 🤭Thanks for tuning in!! Appreciate you!

[@Tooba-K123]

“With Lucaerys’s death the war of ravens and envoys officially ended and the dance of the dragon officially started” fellas this was just the beginning, dance of the dragon is pure tragedy and they already skipped through many things to end this such as Daemon and Rhaenyra’s marriage which caused a big uproar in court and they were banished from coming to king’s landing cause Viserys was really angry with them. Rhaenyra’s daughter was still born, her body was like a lizard with scales and tail and a hole in her chest. She wasn’t gonna make it either way. Sad thing is it was Rhaenyra’s first daughter. All I can say about next season is that Lucaerys’s death is beginning of further tragedy that is Blood and Cheese. I don’t think I can even watch what’s gonna happen in Blood and Cheese. Also remember that Viserys said that ‘the idea that we control the dragons is an illusion’ Lucaerys and Aemond really took them for granted and payed the price.

[@BeautyandtheBeard1]

The translation has been confirmed thanks to the language's creator, David J. Peterson (via Archive Of Our Own). In it, it is revealed that the name of the song Daemon sings to Vermithor is "With Three Heads". Check the English translation: Fire breathes, winged leader but two heads For a third to sing From my voice: The fires spoke And the price has been paid with blood magic With words of fire with clear eyes To tie the three for you i sing As one we come together And with three heads We'll fly like we were meant to beautifully, freely In the book Aemond he kills Luke and because he wanted not to and as he is showing in the series that he is sorry, the name of Rhaenyra's baby would be a girl and her name would be visenya In the book Aemond he kills Luke because he wants to and when he gets home he celebrates and Aegon and alicent they celebrate luke's death different from the series they put it as an accident that the Two lost control of the dragons in the book there is no such thing as losing control of the dragons they spoiled everything in the series but anyway Aemond killed Luke he could have prevented it It was just him not following Luke but that asshole Aemond went after the kid now he's going to bear all the consequences now I' m wondering how they are they going to do this in the series because in the book the greens are all happy with luke's death for alicent, aegon and even aemond so i'm wondering how they are going to do it in the series because the writers put it as if it was an accident and that aemond didn't wanted to kill Luke unlike the book where he kills Luke because he wants to, I didn't like that much they did it just to make people feel sorry for the greens in my opinion Rhaenyra wasn't dreaming of a dragon giving birth. Her own dragon, Syrax, was screaming in pain at her because they are so bonded. If you notice during the Battle of the Stepstones, Caraxes screams when Daemon is hit by an arrow. this shows how Rhaenyra and Daemon have a great connection with their dragons. Rhaenyra's anger burns the whole transition was so well done, her anger is completely justified compared to how they made Daenarys Daemon as crazy as it gets, he loved his brother. From the scene where he stopped Corlis talking shit about Viserys in ep 1, helping on the throne to mourning on the beach. I don't think Daemon wanted to show weakness because Rhaenyra was at her most vulnerable and it wasn't easy.. (His last wife died in childbirth, and I believe it is also said that his mother died in childbirth and the wife of Viserys died in childbirth.) So the only thing he could do was prepare for the war he knew was coming. The scene on the beach was much longer of him on the beach Matt the actor he shot a scene on the beach the daemon suffering from the death of his baby who was a girl and her name was the series visenya but HBO preferred to remove this scene the daemon he is not no saint anymore he loves his family he loves his children and really rhaenyra just unfortunately the writers prefer not to show that side of him much, i think the reason daemon didnt go to rhaenyra when she was giving birth is because he feared having to make an impossible choice. The last woman he had complications with died. He didn't want to have to make that choice for Rhaenyra. He couldn't lose her that way. When he dropped to his knees, he was relieved that she was okay and had survived. Rhaenyra didn't want help during the birth because of her mother's death. She wanted to get that baby out so she wouldn't suffer the same fate. This series/book is awesome... Matt Smith said that Daemon would give his life for Viserys and Rhaenyra. I fully believe he was heartbroken to see his brother in that condition. we books Alicent she hates Rhaenyra she was always jealous of Rhaenyra so much that I wish rhaenyra's death no and as in the series it shows that alicent is like that and because we books she does things because she because she is a bad person Let's see the losses Rhaenyra lost mother and father and daughter and son and Daemon lost father and mother in childbirth and also lost his wife who is Laena and son and now he lost brother and daughter and two other children They are suffering, but each one of their own ways, the daemon starts preparing for war because he knows Otto very well and he is afraid of losing his family One thing I say is that the two really love each other rhaenyra she can't survive without the daemon They are the best couple like it or not they are everyone's popular Daemyra forever Emma Darcy who plays Rhaenyra she says that the daemon never laid a hand on Rhaenyra that this was the first time that Rhaenyra her character didn't care much because she knows that the daemon did that and Because he's angry and he's letting his emotion out and she also says which character of hers cares the most about what she just found out that the daemon doesn't know about prophecy because Rhaenyra I thought the daemon knew because he was heir to viserys for 10 years that's why she put a smile on the side of her mouth because she just found out that her father always chose her and Rhaenyra had her doubts if her father wanted her as heir remembers episode 2 when Rhaenyra talks to Alicent poise now after years he got her answer The daemon must be sad because it's his brother and he just found out that he was never chosen and that brother never trusted him enough to tell him and that's more heartbreaking A script for the first season came out that HBO thought of putting in the story a scene that the viserys was thinking of telling the daemon then he starts talking to the daemon but then gives up only that they They didn't put this scene unfortunately I think the biggest reason people didn't like the scene of Daemon smothering Rhaenyra is because he's supposed to be a bad guy to the greens, but the protector of his family. Daemon isn't a saint, but he's definitely not a villain. He does a lot of bad things, but he's a gray character, and loving his family and protecting them is one of his redeeming qualities and some writers are trying to take that away from him. There are two teams, the Green Team that belongs to Alicent and the Black Team that belongs to Rhaenyra, I hope to see Rhaenyra with fire in her eyes in the second season, The Greens will pay for everything they did

[@BeautyandtheBeard1]

Appreciate you taking the time to share Danielly! We didn't read the books so thank you for giving us insight on the different aspects that strayed from the text. Daemon does seem to have a caring heart in the show but it is disguised by his constant violent acts. Can't wait to see what comes of all this pain shared between Rhaenyra, himself and their combined offspring.

New sub here. Loving the reactions guys. They are starting filming in a few months for season two. Now i see why the original series caused so much drama. I started watching that one after a few seasons were already out. This one i had to watch to get the bad taste out of my mouth from the main shows final. Kinda wished i waited. Game of thrones does cliffhangers. I hate it but they do it quite a bit. Also every character you love gets killed off as well. Eventually. I spent so much of this season trying not to like anyone.🤣 they wont catch me twice.

Aemond was messing with his nephew and wasn’t really trying to hurt Lucerys. Now it is on! The war takes place next; this season is the prologue of the book. Unfortunately, this season just was the build up and there are many things skipped already in order to get to the war but I’m certain once it starts you will enjoy it. I feel your pain about the cliffhanger but knowing how it goes in the books this was a great ending. No spoilers but just know next season we will have Blood and Cheese! That’s all I can say. I definitely enjoyed your reaction and look forward to the next.
