I think that is one of the reasons why I will always be team rhaenyra... she really understood that being a mother meant more than just birthing children. alicent thought that her main responsibility was being queen and raising a king, but forgot about being a mother and raising a good man

[@LMCorvinus]

that would break any mother

[@LoneWulf278]

@@elliemrpIn all fairness, Alicent didn’t grow up with a mother herself. 😢

[@elliemrp]

@LoneWulf278 I mean, it's not like she didn't know her mother at all. Alicent used to read to King Jaeherys, so she had been in the capital at least since Rhaenyra was around 5, maybe? And they had her mother dresses at hand when she met with Viserys, so we can assume that she was actually with them in the capital for some time, and remember Alicent is older than Rhaenyra, so it's not like her mother didn't help raise her.

[@LoneWulf278]

@@elliemrp Most noble blood mothers never raised their own kids. People are measuring Alicent with modern standards. For a queen back then, being a mother really *was* just about birthing heirs. They wouldn’t have been raised by her or with her influence regardless of her maternal skills, this is especially true for the male children. Rhaenyra is the exception. Alicent’s parenting style (or lack thereof) was the norm.

He's a phenomenal actor, but I got so used to him as the 11th Doctor that I just couldn't picture him doing justice to this great warrior, but bloodthirsty lunatic of a Targaryen, both in physique and attitude. *Yet, BOY, did he blow my expectations out of the water!* 🤩 Now I know they couldn't have picked anyone better!

[@trandall1142]

He truly didn’t mean for that child to die. Daemon isn’t a psycho like so many say-he feels remorse.

[@user-us3jy2mb5r]

He is very much a psycho. He was smirking when he heard of the child's death. He didn't care because he still got a son. He just felt guilty after a while because Rhaenyra said he put her in a bad situation.

[@barrydalton4743]

I always liked Daemon prior, but this scene really made me like him more because it shows something we rarely see from him; remorse. Before he treated the death of the child as accident, but seemed as if it didn’t really affect him. Here though, we see he does feel bad, he feels guilty about the whole thing, but he will never openly admit it, but at the very least we see that even someone like him as a conscious, that even he can feel guilty. Makes him more human in that regard.

[@Dobviews]

FFR: He was "conscious/aware" of the effects his actions had, but his "conscience" left him bewildered and remorseful of his actions.

[@haleybergeron8276]

He really did seal her fate when he took her around doing things he knew she shouldn't partake in, he was actively tempting her

​@@vivianfurch8754they are Targaryen, legally, they can be both lol

[@biscuitkeyboard]

I never really saw it as him corrupting innocence but more that he never had a very big perspective on the pain he causes others and the impact his decisions have on other people. He was always too concerned about the slights he percieved as intentional, feeling alone when in reality he was the one who abandoned Viscerys and his family. I feel he is realizing that alot of things he blamed others for is his own fault and it's hard to admit these things to yourself because doing so hurts the most important things to Daemon, his pride and how he percieves himself. I know people don't really like all the vision stuff but if a person is truly as prideful as Daemon they won't just see a hallucination and automatically admit to themselves what they have done. The shell Daemon has created around himself is as strong as dragonscales

Its interesting how trigger points of this war are unintentional. Its very much like in real life. No matter how honourable you think your war's cause is, once its set in motion, stuff gets out of their hands because human leaders are humans not Gods who can control the actions of everyone involved. No matter was Deamon feels for that child, the ones welding the sword at that time didn't share the same and then the child became cannon fodder. Art imitates life, this very stuff is happening right now, right before us. Defenseless innocent children dying for grown men's egos and greed.

I believe that he truly loves Rhaenyra. He’s not used to loving someone like that and let his old habits of thinking only of himself get in the way. The ghosts and visions set him straight. I loved when he told her that he could never leave her because he couldn’t although he tried. ❤

[@faibelle99]

God Matt Smith and all of the other actors in this series are amazing

[@blackspark5218]

Do you people know what visual story telling is? In this scene (the full scene from the show), the camera cuts away from Daemon's face and then zooms in on little Jaehaerys, briefly cuts back to Daemon's expression turning horrorfied, then back to a close-up of Jaehaerys, then back to Daemon when he starts to cry and drops his sword. His tears are not about Rhaenyra, although he feels guilt for putting her in this messy position. The reason he crys, is that he feels remorse for Jaehaerys's death. Not that he would ever admit to this anywere outside his own head, at least not yet. (Maybe at a later point, depending on what the show is going for with Daemon's charackter arc. They might be setting him up for a redemption arc ala Jamie Lannister here.)

[@AT-bw6gx]

Daemon doesn't get redemption though, not in the book at least. He dies in a battle over the God's Eye and his body is never found.

[@autumnhomer9786]

My thoughts exactly. He feels guilt for killing a child.

[@orfamayQ]

He looks at the child, his great-nephew, who he has never met due to the conflict, and realizes that if things where as they should be, he should have helped to raise, nurture and protect that innocent little boy, not cause his death. Family is especially close for Targaryens and the boy looks like everyone in his family, it probably hits much closer than it would in other (non-incest-ridden) families.

[@blackspark5218]

@@AT-bw6gx I'm aware thats how his story ends, I read the book. I was thinking more in line of him facing the demons inside his own mind, wich is pretty much whats been happening this entire season, and eventually emerging from this inner battle as a better, stronger and wiser man.

[@graciep.6984]

Then the actor is doing an excellent job! :) That’s the nature of Daemon Targaryen - he’s both loved and hated by the people in the books, seen as either a hero or a villain, but it’s almost always one extreme or the other. Never indifference. And the truth is that he has been both. I saw a really interesting short on this character as GRRM wrote him - his characters are never fully good or bad, but Daemon is apparently meant to have this extreme duality. He's also extremely charismatic. He can be charming or terrifying, depending on his mood and/or intentions. So your reaction sounds about right.

[@blackeyedsusan727]

Good comment. Thank you. ​@@graciep.6984
