“At Aemon’s suspense” I think you mean: “At Aemon’s expense”

[@JellyJugz]

Yes I probably did lol

[@isac7937]

Lucerys was an idiot for walking into storms end when he saw vhagar was there, he should've just flown home

It isn't really black and white. None of them are really EVIL, but a product of their environment and the people who raised them. I don't think it was the childish pranks that made him so hateful towards Lucerys, but how Alicent reacted. From his young age, Alicent has continuously taught him that Aegon is to be king simply because he is a man, that Rhaenyra will kill him and everyone he cares about if she becomes Queen (which Rhaenyra would NOT do, before the war she even says that she doesn't think needless bloodshed is worth her sitting on the Iron Throne). Lucerys took his eye, and Alicent taught him "violence is answered with violence". That is what he has been taught, that is now how he thinks the world and "justice" work, and that is what leads to him accidentally killing Lucerys. I believe it was ALSO incredibly wrong for Lucerys to not face any punishment, because then they believe they must "take it into their own hands". Viserys should've imposed a punishment on Lucerys (not taking his eye or something violent, but at least show that there are consequences to ease the mind of Alicent, and in turn, Aemond. The answering "violence with violence" has only led to more pain and death. Similar to Daemon and how his whole "a son for a son" pretty much stopped all possibilities of finding peace/a common ground. Both scenarios end with a child being killed, simply because a "debt needed to be paid". That is just my take on it. No one is necessarily good or bad, they are kids who are mirroring what the adults around them are doing and finding out that the outcome is not a good one.

There's no way of saying what rhaenyra could or could not do, but everything points to the fact that she eventually would all it needed was a little push from daemon and her allies, rahenyra was aways a oportunist, just like otto both in the show and the books and alicent in the books (at the eyes of the maesters)

[@sydnitheromantictaylor112]

Aemond was cruel to rhaena right after her mother died, I get being mean to his nephews because they used to pick at him but he had no reason to be cruel to rhaena and bhaela, but Aemond I believe is hateful because of being up under his mother and criston Cole who both hate rhaenyra so he was raised to hate, and aemond was too ready at the dinner to fight even before lucerys laughed at the pig and yeah I believe Aemond is evil eventually but mainly due to being raised to hate for many years

[@aishahamma334]

First. He wasn't cruel to anyone. Te just told her the truth him insulting rhyena was expected. She accused him of stealing was prepared to fight him and was on the same team whit those bastards who bullied him for years. Why wouldn't aemond hate rhaenyra. Her son cut out his eye but rhaenyra is asking for him to be tortured. Aemond was minding his own business when that bastard started laughing at him after he cut out his eye years ago. Lucerys wasn't even guilty but he proceeds to laugh at him and you expect him to what sit down and ignore it .Aemond isn't evil. Lucerys was considering that he planned on harming or killing aemond even before the fight started. He pulled out the knife when aemond called them bastards. Slashed the knife at aemond like 5 or 6 times and aemond kept dodging it before he finally cut out his eye

[@AliSherrr]

Dragons don't belong to any family and are not family heirloom that can be stolen by someone. A dragon chooses its rider as much as a rider chooses a dragon. So the whole confrontation was not Aemond's fault.

[@sydnitheromantictaylor112]

I do get aemond hating lucerys, and lucery got 0 consequences, which I say viserys should've had him whipped at least. Lucerys was dumb at the dinner to laugh at the uncle whose eye he cut put and also never Apologized.

[@joshuaadams6565]

If he goes down his books path then yes. He killed entire bloodlines for one of the family members actions. He burned entire villages of innocent people. Compared to the blacks then he’s a monster when it comes to the war. Even daemon manages to take places without bloodshed.

[@JellyJugz]

Yes I guess I was talking about currently lol but ya if he does all that it would pretty hard to argue for him lol

[@Krackonis]

Are they rich? Then they are evil.

[@milicadjordjevic4498]

You need therapy and a financial counseling asap, it seems.

@@milicadjordjevic4498 I don't mean I own four cars and invest in the stockmarket.... I mean the people who James Bond fought.
