tysm for answering my stupidly long q!! i appreciate you taking the time :)
i think i wasn’t clear or you’re referring to smth im not aware of/haven’t seen re: spoilers- but i don’t think aegon will abuse helaena/alicent, certainly not physically or anything like that. if anything , with the way they set up their relationship, i’d imagine his most tension would be with aemond, who has already made it clear he thinks he’s the better option for the throne (and forgotten the existence of his toddler nephew when he said so 😂) and standing up to otto, who has been pulling the strings since the day aegon was born, so that’ll be a cool inversion for their relationship. and for sure i think he’ll have a different and darker relationship with alicent (she’s given him this position he never wanted and yet now (potentially) relishes) but imo that would be more of a power trip than anything else? ifs hard to know about his dynamic with helaena bc again we are given nothing except he ignores her lol, but in terms of that i don’t think much would change tbh.
i hope that makes my rambling more clear hahaha. thanks again ❤️ have a wonderful day
Oh, yeah, I don't really know what direction they're going into, because having power trips with his family can mean literally anything. :)) From sassy quips to outward humiliation and physical threats. And I definitely don't want to see the last two. :)) So I'm mostly rambling based on vibes. But I think Alicent/Helaena have suffered/will suffer enough already and I'm not keen on Aegon piling onto that.
Aegon duking it out with Aemond could be very intense, why not! But I would like them to ultimately preserve that bond that keeps Aemond as Prince Regent, not king, and makes Aegon want a huge-ass statue of Aemond after he dies.
Anyway, you're welcome & thanks for dropping by! 💟
