What if Hugh wasn't petting the dog as a nice gesture but contemplating how hungry him and his family really were before the miracle food appeared 😅🤢🤯

[ShubertReads]

I like how Seasmoke got bored and decided to claim a human

[BacklogReviewer]

Enjoying the idea of Rhaenyra flying out all fury and fire to merk Adam, finding him flying round on Seasmoke, and him being like “CAN YOU HELP ME GET DOWN PLEASE” “I AM STUCK”

[tfgbvfgyh]

Sea smoke was like “that guys looks like Laenor, fuck it” 😂

[sentientmustache]

Aemond feinting the fuck out of Larys was the funniest thing in this entire show i swear

[Nasipecel_pedes_pol]

Daemon "my wife is kissing my ex while i'm going insane in my room" Targaryen

[luftschloss]

Simon Strong shushing Daemon like a baby was pure gold - and it worked LOL

[Karlswebb]

3 crickets = 3 unclaimed dragons, singing = unclaimed (seasmoke would vocalize while unclaimed in prior episodes. One has stopped = one has been claimed.

[taytayqueen]

Alicents face when Gwyane said Daeron was kind..broke my heart.

[mikemonty]

That one tear down larys's face while talking with aegon was amazing, it was subtle and felt real. That whole scene between those two was excellent, this show has some top notch acting

[Fabo]

I felt Larys talk to Aegon at his bedside was one of the best moments of the episode and Matthew Needham is such a brilliant actor!

[karlsodvinas]

Seasmoke has claimed a rider. Seasmoke is a cat!

[skillz]

S2E02 - "There's definitely some Royal Blood around here somewhere"
S2E06 - "There you are. What, you don't want this Smoke?"

[honestinsincerity]

Having his brother push that stone into his burnt chest must have been Aegon-y

[KingsandGenerals]

Just realized that the Beesbury seat is Honeyholt, which is across the river from Oldtown. They most likely have a smaller force than their liege lord, but being able to keep a crossing might be crucial and maybe that is what slowing down the Hightower army. Very interesting from the military history pov.

[jmaitland]

I love how Daemon remembers Viserys's heir for a day lecture differently. In episode 1 Viserys was furious and wrothful, but in Daemon's memory Viserys is just sad, distraught, almost weeping.

Maybe a combination of his guilt at knowing just how much he hurt his brother but maybe also a bit of convenient memory melding, choosing to forget about Viserys's more stern and wrathful side since Daemon is *supposed* to be the strong one while Viserys was supposed to be the weak one in his mind.

[Chaosoftheunicorns]

"You smell like Laenor" Seasmoke

[thaddraper]

I'm surprised no one commented on Aemond wearing Blackfyre while going to see the now awake Aegon. A power play by Aemond for sure.

[thomaswillard]

I like how Seasmoke really said "I will be rode by a Bastard before I'm rode by an Andal"

[cl]

Daemon: "Wtf are you doing to me you crazy old man?!"

Ser Simon: "👁👄👁 So that's a no to the peas, then?"
