Editing Junk Words

I think it's fair to give hotd shit for quite a few things, but I still think that how they chose to change Alicent's character was genius. To look at her and ask: what if she was young? What if she was scared? And then, in turn, to have this scared young girl, that was pushed into the cycle of violence and abuse that is feudalism, grow up into a scared wary woman, that doesn't stop the cycle for her children but instead pushes them into it as well, because it's the only way the world works that she knows. Because when her father pushed her into the cycle, he kissed her brow and called it duty. And now she makes her children wed each other and ursurp a throne, continuing all the abuse and violence, because she was told as a girl that if you just follow the rules enough everything will be alright.

And that's also what makes her relationship with Rhaenyra so fascinating. It's love, but it's also resentment. To Alicent Rhaenyra is free. She doesn't follow the rules, flaunts some of them openly. And still it seems like there are no consequences for her. She doesn't follow the rules and still Viserys loves her in a way he never did his children by Alicent. While Alicent breaks and reprieves herself in an attempt to do everything right, but it won't save her.

oh my god its a fictional world generator im so happy this is hte best thing i have ever found on the internet

So, let me guess– you just started a new book, right? And you’re stumped. You have no idea how much an AK47 goes for nowadays. I get ya, cousin. Tough world we live in. A writer’s gotta know, but them NSA hounds are after ya 24/7. I know, cousin, I know. If there was only a way to find out all of this rather edgy information without getting yourself in trouble…

You’re in luck, cousin. I have just the thing for ya.

It’s called Havocscope. It’s got information and prices for all sorts of edgy information. Ever wondered how much cocaine costs by the gram, or how much a kidney sells for, or (worst of all) how much it costs to hire an assassin?

I got your back, cousin. Just head over to Havocscope.

((PS: In case you’re wondering, Havocscope is a database full of information regarding the criminal underworld. The information you will find there has been taken from newspapers and police reports. It’s perfectly legal, no need to worry about the NSA hounds, cousin ;p))
