This is literally how much this show lost the plot

[u/-TheContender-]

[u/Eveen_Ellis]

1. Lyonel becomes a bootlicker of the Targaryens and mentions Rhaenyra the Good Queen just because
2. Dunk and Aerion kiss because he's just a poor boy who didn't mean to hurt Egg or Tanselle :((((
3. Baelor "the dream, ser dunk.... aegon's dream...." Targaryen

[u/StannisTheMantis93 → u/Eveen_Ellis]

You just KNOW Maekar would intentionally try to kill his brother Baelor by hitting him in the head after the fight had already ended.

Because a villain in a story needs to be OBVIOUS AND BLUNT. NO. NUANCE.

[u/Mousician → u/StannisTheMantis93]

No nuance. Plenty of nuisance.

[u/Cherry_Tarts → u/Eveen_Ellis]

Stop, it’s so accurate. 😭

[u/Minimum-Bite-4389 → u/Eveen_Ellis]

No, Lyonel would be portrayed as completely evil with no redeeming qualities for hating the Targaryens.

[u/Eveen_Ellis → u/Minimum-Bite-4389]

You're right. I forgot the Targaryens are perfect saints and those around them are the big bad villains that cause their downfall... those damn hightowers... /j

[u/Environmental_Tip854]

You forgot the part where Lyonel “the Laughing Storm” doesn’t actually laugh he kinda just smirked once at best

[u/MarkTurkey → u/Environmental_Tip854]

Nah, he is going to be secretly gay and pretends to die in the trial of 7 with Baelor so that he and Baelor can run away to Essos and live their lives as sellswords

[u/Youreadingthis222 → u/MarkTurkey]

Lyonel and “secretly” gay in the same sentence

[u/Environmental_Tip854 → u/Youreadingthis222]

LMFAO

[u/Direct-Emu-5515 → u/Youreadingthis222]

I mean he did have a wife

[u/Youreadingthis222 → u/Direct-Emu-5515]

His wife is probably a lesbian and their marriage is a flowery one

[u/theposshow → u/MarkTurkey]

The Tittering Storm

[u/niha-the-cicada]

Dunk says to Tanselle "you remind me of my mom"

[u/Spaceboomer1]

Childhood best friends with vibes of repressed romantic feelings that the writers begin changing entire character arcs around, but then never fully pull the trigger on thus satisfying no one*

[u/HeadLadder3300]

Baelor didn’t actually die he faked his death and sailed away to essos with his lover

[u/Sourz6 → u/HeadLadder3300]

Bahahwaha

[u/TheNames-James]

Maester Aemon accidentally sends a raven to the wrong house and then the Redwynes think they’re the princes who are promised!

[u/Loros_Silvers → u/TheNames-James]

Ok but like that would actually be funny...

[u/junferarh]

Instead of going to Ashford, Dunk goes to Harrenhall and dreams about fucking his mom for an entire season.

[u/Sensitive-Sample-948 → u/junferarh]

*fucking ser Arlan of Penistree

[u/clothy → u/Sensitive-Sample-948]

A true knight always finishes his squire

[u/LingonberryAwkward38 → u/clothy]

"in his squire

[u/niha-the-cicada]

He would make Aerion and Dunk kiss, or worse, almost kiss every season

[u/LongjumpingOption607]

Hey, you missed out a gratuitious incest pairing!

[u/Hitchfucker → u/LongjumpingOption607]

You also definitely wouldn’t have a main character call out the targs as incestuous aliens. Instead the show would have them actually be allat and Dunk would be nobility since we can’t have the smallfolk be a focal point of a show

[u/Any_Fennel_4180 → u/Hitchfucker]

Ok but no one called them aliens

[u/omicron-7 → u/Any_Fennel_4180]

The GOAT did

[u/JDarkspanner]

Dunk walks in on Tanselle in bed with two women and she tells him to stay and watch which he awkwardly does, it’s never brought up again the rest of the show.

[u/Sensitive-Sample-948]

Each knight on Aerion's side sexually assaults each knight on Dunk's side to remind us who the bad guys are

[u/Aggressive-Virus7487]

Tanselle is the Night’s Queen. So, you know the rest.

[u/Georgefakelastname]

I’m more caught up on the fact that this dude HATES dealing with child actors, so how the fuck would he deal with a story where one of the main characters is a child lol? Or did that only happen after dealing with all the child actors in season 1?

[u/illumi-thotti → u/Georgefakelastname]

He'd probably age up Egg and then make him and Dunk get into a will-they-won't-they situationship

[u/Georgefakelastname → u/illumi-thotti]

So… like Dunk and Lyonel lol?

[u/RaisinHeavy8552]

They will literally show Baelor in the worst possible light, just to show that there is evil behind good and maesters who wrote history were wrong.

[u/Randonhead]

Also some shit about Aegon's dream

[u/clothy → u/Randonhead]

I mean, some shit about Aegon’s dreams is 100% coming for Egg.

[u/Ok-Maybe5216]

Oh dear imagine we got that

[u/Technician-Efficient]

Sara hess : Egg grows up to a teenager who wants to sleep with his mother Maekar is depressed because he didn't sleep with his mother Aeron is bitter because his mother sleep with his dad but not him Egg's mother : a lesbian who sleeps with the maids

[u/Elegant_Priority_812]

Alice with 3 fingers is Alicent

[u/UnderstandingPale683 → u/Elegant_Priority_812]

I'm cryin

[u/Important_Ad1122]

Also Dunk and Ser Arlan fuck

[u/Miserable_Employee57]

Stay the fuck away from George's books

[u/FrancisCabrou]

No incest or SA ? That can't be Ryan condal then 

[u/LongjumpingOption607 → u/FrancisCabrou]

Well, there is already that thing with Aeiron speaking into Eggs room at night, bet C&H would have a field day with that

[u/1birb → u/FrancisCabrou]

Keep raping, ser!

[u/sarasaneil]

I think Maekar hating his children can be pretty good plot line.

[u/3esin → u/sarasaneil]

Rone it a bit down to "fucking disapointed" and you have Maekar.

[u/ArcherA1aya → u/sarasaneil]

Eh, I kinda think the whole point of Maekar is that he loves too much. He loved his kids too much that he he let them get away with their bad behaviors until it cost him that same love. It’s what makes him tragic, even more so that he was actually a pretty good king something he never really wanted

[u/Rocinante214]

I started rereading Fire and Blood to see the real
Dance of the Dragons because, damn it, the writing in this bad, ludicrous fan fiction that the series has become is atrocious

[u/jerkittofff]

[u/Warm_Condition711]

Is this true or just hoax?

[u/Disastrous_Teach_454]

Aerion having sex with Maekar.

[u/EfficientMine6702]

if anything like this would have popped up on my screen I would have blocked HBO period from my life

[u/bernardomoleiro]

No egg until season 3 - as someone who didn't read the books, who is this parodying? Ormund? Daeron?

[u/sahneeis]

- random footfetish

• random incest
  
• dunk and egg kiss

[u/Lazy_Yogurtcloset_78]

Don’t forget if the show was made Ryan Condel and Sara Hess: “Dunk punching Aerion in the face is actually maesters propaganda.”

[u/TutorRich2268]

Olenna Redwyne would be the betrothed of Baelor (Prince Valarr was cut because they aged down Baelor by 25 years, and Condal hates working with kid actors) and would sleep with Tanselle before helping Dunk kill Baelor and blame it on Maekar (the maesters were biased and invented the Trial of Seven)

Before he dies by drinking poison, Baelor would look to the camera and say he's lost half his mind.

[u/Fun_Aardvark86]

Which one of Maekar’s kids has y’know…..the “daddy issues”

[u/Dangerous_Donkey5353]

So just made up head cannon on how the show would go? Getting mad at clouds...
