Fool Stands On Giant’s Toe

They killed Joffrey literally two episodes ago.

-Interior dungeon. A Troll pumps the bellows. Heat and flames rise from the furnace.

:Troll: “Was Joffrey gay? Or just gay for pay?! Just another, two-faced,gold digging, man whore, that Hollywood attempts to sell as a real gay-life story in order to exploit homosexuality?! Enough with this fantasy! Where’s the realism!”

Daemon giggling was stupid and unnecessary

May have been different from  a giggle. First glance it seemed to be a reaction towards the eulogy of pure blood lines. 
or  he’s just no Debbie-Downer-Deamon and he sees the funny in fun-eral. Wokka wokka.

The scene on Dragonstone where he wasn't prepared for Daemon just to flat out murder him

Daemon: “This egg? You want this egg? Ok. Just take it. Come on it’s right here. Just cross the line.

Daemon quickly stands in front of sign that reads -Trespasser’s will be violated.-Poacher’s lose a hand-

Just for giggles.

Anyone else hoping Aegon the second starts behaving like a Royal macaron? Just completely foppish and obsessively polishing his “scepter”, at, above, or beside, unsuspecting people?  like maybe the coin toss on this king got flipped, fumbled, and landed in something sticky. 
 

Aegon the Mad Masturbator

What if every time teenage Aegon starts Masturbating Alicent storms in slapping him and screaming,

“Usurp your half-sister and kill your nephews! :slap:”

”You will marry your sister! and Momma’s  gonna watch. :slap:”

“A king gets to finish! :slap:” 

Aegon the II. The Mad Masturbator.

So Aegon just gets completely nude, brazenly stands in a window,  and jerks off over the threshold to the sight of pigeons and the sound of bells?
What about any poor peasants passing underneath his window?  
His mom is totally cool with him throwing seed to pigeons like this? Like this is just a regular thing he does?   
It happens so often she doesn’t even comment on it. Kinda hard not to comment when he’s naked. 
ha!

Flying pig and no Suggs reference? bah!
 

I know who it is.

Who?

The handsome paramour.

Ser Criston Cole. 
Her sworn protector?

Look at him. 
The man is fully cunt struck

I believe ser Criston has bloodied that white cloak of his with your brides maidenhead

Keep your voice down.

This is a good thing. She knows your secret and now you know hers.

Hey!  
Hey!   
Hey!

It would be powerful to reveal a more complete version of events, and the off screen actions we haven’t seen of some of the characters, latter in the show. The dramatic effect of Deamon’s fall into the Gods Eye and a montage of his life from,
Playing with his brother as a child,  The toast to an heir for a day,   
Rhea’s life and death.

To see a full picture of a life. From another perspective. Maybe more abominable, or less, or just different. 
…would be cheating by editing without establishing cinematography pov’s

The whole silent menacing thing was calculated to keep her intrigued

Ah ok. I was like, what are they showing us here. A silent Daemon, wearing a ridiculously over the top manhood cloak, appears in a pass, apparently walked to the vale, and just happened to encounters his wife wile she was hunting…deer.

     I just have to breathe and let it go. Inhale the calm, and exhale the, the, the, nope I can’t do it!

Suspicious!

I shall withdraw to my mothers basement and endeavor to concoct a most convoluted conspiracy theory that contains a rubber chicken and no less than 3 Klaatu Barada Niktu’s!*.  Royal dog or worm head? 
 

*For our younger audience, Thats an old movie quote.

a reason to call their faction the Blacks

Oh yea that would be upsetting to depict. Very uncomfortable. I just like the idea of history twisting  the focus towards the dresses and maybe not another reason. 
I really wanted to see a closer view on the city miniature at High Tide. Do you know what city that was? And was that a Sphinx statue above? 
Final question  What rings are some of the characters wearing? Deamon’s looks like a Blackwood sigil? 
Final, final question. The crab feeder was carried by Daemon to the sea cheaply ?

change to the worldbuilding

Was Corlys skin tone ever mentioned in the books? I couldn’t recall if it was. I had just assumed. I love the casting choice of Corlys. The color of the dresses seemed a far-fetched reason to name a war Greens vs. Blacks. I thought it was blood but skin makes it even more despicable and real

…if that’s what ya talking about?

Where does he come from? How did he get there? Where is his dragon? How did he find her? Why exactly does he want to kill her?

Exactly!
There is only one motive I can think of for Daemon to murder Rhea. If I recall correctly in a previous episode Daemon said of his Broze Bitch that the sheep are prettier? That would mean she has information coming to her from someone who was present. Maybe she’s cooperating with someone who opposes Daemon’s or the king’s plans.

Her death brings up the rules of inheritance. This may set a precedent for future rulings and votes in the vale. A husband would be past up in line if he was married into the house. So Laenor would not inherit in the case of his wife’s death. Could be a defensive move to protect his niece or one of self interest.

why people say Daemon is silent - he had a lot to speak at the wedding

I find it curious that the behavior of Deamon, and other characters, appear    to have personality’s that are dependent upon the location and costumes they wear. Viserys in his solar wearing robes. Viserys in black at throne room. Night, day, dawn, dusk etc. with or without dagger. Deamon not speaking to Rhea and wearing his manhood.

I think it reared because she went for her bow.

You’d think a bow would be a bad choice to defend yourself with. Draw bow, draw arrow, nock, draw, lose. Maybe that was the only weapon at hand. Something to do with Visearys saying Mayhaps we turn to happier things?

Rhea rode a white horse.

Daemon puts his hand out.

Horse flips head to tails?

Rhea Royce 

She rides out.

She encounters her cousin randomly.

She says she’s hunting deer.

She’s riding back from her hunt. No deer. Randomly encounters a hooded  Daemon.

Daemon has no mount with him. He Does not speak. He raises his hand to Rhea. She falls off her ride.

Rhea is unmoving after her fall.

Deamon picks up a stone. 
-END SCENE 

Did we see Deamon kill Rhea? Did we see a body or death?

How was he traveling the vale mount less?

Does the cousin have means, motive, and opportunity? Would he stand to inherit?

Word got to Lady Rheanys fast in Drifmark. We only hear of a death.

Hey! 
:dance:

Hey! 
:dance:

Hey! 
:dance:

a Kingsguard straight up beat someone to death, but not in the middle of a wedding

"A Dothraki wedding without at least three deaths is deemed a dull affair," 

I agree with the Dothraki. As far as Westerosi weddings go this one had the falling action of a dick softener.

Better to have not forced a wedding expectation with bloodshed. Try a different shocker.
I like how the king just sat there eating  and I guess everyone decided to leave? Seven day party’s over? People just went home?
One “fight” and a body would be cleared and cleaned and everyone would move on.

Expectation: historical realism, aristocrats acting like aristocrats

Yea, I was hoping for more political maneuvering, and courtly banter with the a classic “Only the strong. Might makes everything I do alright.” Character.
I would much prefer  Jane Austin style quips and love interests than a two minute scene of Cole and Rheanys making fuck face at each other.

 The brothel scene, I get it. She has gone to a lower level of lust. But really they could have done better.

Daemon the prisoner?

Why does Daemon wear an oversized manhood?

Is it because of his new hair cut?

How come he acts differently with out it?

Is Deamon a man whore who gets pimped out by his brother? Is he forced under the guise of exile to lay seed. Even tho his brothers aware of his sexual preferences?

Is he a procurer of shameful illicit materials for the king?

that scene with Larys, sort of reminded me of the “that’s Jamie Lannister;

Fully agree. I groaned at that.
Should of been introduced another way. Her entrance halting the king was overacted, anticlimactic ? I was kinda hoping for a “girl fight” of snarky jabs in a Emily Brontë style.

Is Deamon gay?

Do unsullied clean themselves in saltwater when handling diseased corpses?

No one talks about the death of the crab feeder. Look as he exits the cave. What is held in one hand and what Is not held but floats as if bound. What lies next to the corpse when touches the sea.
Riggings, topmost, jib?

I’m not convinced that was Deamon who sneaked Rheanys out, fed her potions, and left her at the brothel. 
Nor do I think it was Deamon who killed Lady Royce. The behavior was that of a silent stranger
