corlys should have sided with the crabfeeder but instead got his head chopped in half

Crabfeeder was a bad dude. And he ran a bunch of bad boys. And back in those days -- Corlys - to show how things have changed -- one of the things you had to use, if you controlled the Stepstones you could harass the trade routes. And so he was up on the beach and wouldn't listen to me. I said, 'Hey, Serwyn of the Mirror Shield, you! Off the beach or I'll come up and dragon you off.' Well, he came off, and he said, 'I'll meet you outside.'

what's the dragon situation now? eyepatch has the biggest, or so he says, but he's the only dragonrider on that side. as opposed to incest dragonstone crew who has 2, and possibly 3 now

eyepatch is the only one who can ride a dragon in that faction

Think about it. Use your brains, if you even have one haha. Crabfeeder knew what Daemon was planning, he didn't respond at all not because he was a one episode dumbass, but because he knew him and all his soliders dying would ultimately make Daemon's eventual epic win over Aemond or some bitch all the more ironic. Ha, dragons ruling the kingdom. Right.

Can a person with no Targaryen blood ride dragon? In the book is there rando dragonrider? Just good athlete that can hold onto the saddle?

Some teeth long for ripping, gleaming wet from black dog gums. So you keep your eyes closed at the end. You don't want to see such a mouth up close. before the bite, before its oblivion in the goring of your soft parts, the speckled lips will curl back in a whinny of excitement. You just know it.

It is believed that the answer is "no", but they also believe that if some rando tames a dragon, that proves they had Targaryen blood, so... who fuckin' knows. Maybe they're right -- there have been targs around for over a century and plenty of 'em liked to gently caress around -- or maybe they're wrong and the magic doesn't work that way, or it isn't magic at all.

This show does a good job of making dragons look utterly alien and scary as poo poo. The eyes especially communicate the idea of an intelligence unlike anything human or generally mammalian. The game of thrones ones seemed more anthropomorphized somehow. Maybe they had fewer close-ups of their faces.

There's a bit in the book where the blacks are desperate for riders because they have a fucktonne of dragons and they just round up everyone on dragonstone that has a bit of noticable targ blood (they have purple eyes in the books which makes em pretty distinctive) and gives them a crack at it. Imagine just being some random bastard and they roll up and give you a go on sheepstealer.

Caraxes acted hurt when Daemon got hurt, so there's some kind of connection between rider and dragon. And riders don't seem to be able to take more than one dragon in their lives, even though dragons can have multiple riders in their life.

Also I don't think you can steal a living person's dragon from them, but once they're dead it's fair game.

Hopefully they'll extend the lore a bit and we can have some scenes with Larys consulting with Maesters, reading scrolls, discussing with dragon wranglers, meeting some smiths while they forge away and then showing up to Alicent with a special Valyrian steel key which they just have to insert in the side of the dragon to turn off the alarms and drive it around.

I wonder who stole the dragon. The guy who had the best fight scene in the franchise over stealing a dragon, where he lost his eye, or the guy cumming prophecies?

The questions are "what does failure to ride a dragon looks like and do i want to look like that? Should i listen to the Targaryan claim that only people with Valyrien blood can ride Dragon? Let's see what happens to that other guy trying before me first! Oh-". It's the sword stuck in the stone problem but with teeth and flame thrower on the sword.

A commoner without targ blood does tame a dragon by just feeding it and being nice but then they retconned it to make them have targ blood iirc

The Westerosi seem like they name their kids after their family, and it would take a lot of time to spread new names that way.

The Velaryons also have weird Valaryian names and don't normally marry their relatives (unless they're marrying their Targ cousins). You'd think there would be some third cousin on a cadet branch of the Baratheons with a Valaryian name passed down from their family.
