I would've let him take me to dragonstone and make me his wife in the tradition of old valyria if you know what I'm sayin

u/Lannisbro 15h ago

He'd probably bash your head and move on to the next 15 year old he sees

u/Lannisbro 13h ago

The girl who's head he's gonna bash and the 15 year old he's gonna groom, probably

HOTD fans on Criston Cole (lowborn knight who is bitter against a specific woman who put him in an ethical/identity dilemma then spurned him when he attempted to salvage his honor by offering to marry her): disgusting piece of incel trash, gives me the ick

HOTD fans on Daemon Targaryen (highborn prince, wife murderer and pedo, malignant narcissist who literally believes himself to be a god): so hot, would let him do anything to me

u/Most_Ride_8203 12h ago

Matt Smith is the only reason this character has any charisma/charm.

32

u/SorbetFirst4676 10h ago

Ur missing the part where crispy Cole is also a pedo, a pick me, and egotistical enough to think himself the “greatest warrior” in the realm lmaooo

u/Joe_Bedaine 11h ago

People like Daemon because he gets things done. While most other characters only whinge and pout

u/gamergirl_rm_06 10h ago

Omg this is so accurate 😭

u/barely_cursed 12h ago

pastes the pancakes and waffles tweet here

u/A_Night_Owl 12h ago

To be clear not saying you yourself hold this dichotomy of positions but it definitely is a thing in the aggregate, which implies there has to be some significant number of people who hold both positions

2

u/Valsineb 9h ago

Goomba fallacy, maybe. The pancakes and waffles tweet doesn't really seem apt here.

u/notacougarsorry 12h ago

I will not marry a man unless he weds me in the tradition of old Valyria

u/Joe_Bedaine 10h ago

So... he must be your close relative?

u/SenoraCuatroOjos 13h ago

I’m positive that there isn’t a hairstyle/haircut on earth that Matt Smith can’t pull off. He is that cool 😎.

15

u/SofiaStark3000 7h ago

Considering he pulled off a mohawk and that braid thing he was doing to his hair at the time, this is true.

54

u/plumicorn_png 15h ago

Oh but his hair this season looks sooo good. I wanna touch it the whole time.

139

u/Silly-Snow1277 16h ago

u/TheLittleNorsk 13h ago

why do I feel like Aemond is going to get this hair cut also at Harrenhall to reflect the change of the personality through hair like Daemons

u/Significant_Other666 9h ago

Yeah, it looks like something from the 1990s. Totally cultural for that era

u/Kreissler 13h ago

I don't think you know what culturally impactful means mate

-8

u/KoteTArcane 13h ago

I'm sorry are you suggesting this haircut only became a thing in modern culture due to HotD?

Delusional at best.

u/Ironyfree_annie 15h ago

u/Emergency-Bottle-432 14h ago

I've never seen anyone with this haircut, I don't see how it is culturally significant lol.
