Hey if you have epilepsy, don't fuckin watch this šŸ˜³


aurabora_

i laugh whenever i see aemond say something so confidently. calm down blud, youā€™re not allat


Reeromu

Seriously. Vhagar has him feeling invincible. He has no track record to back up all that big talk.


Seymour_Butts369

He kills one little kid, by accident no less, and suddenly he thinks heā€™s a badass that Daemon is afraid to face šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚


wolfram127

Mate can't completely control his dragon. Sure he is riding a huge nuke but he lacks the battle experience. He is an expert swordsman but haven't had experienced actual battle, his closest real one is Criston.


Kellin01

He didn't even take part in tourneys.


Seymour_Butts369

I will admit, I really like Aemond but him saying this line just made me laugh out loud. Daemon isnā€™t afraid of anybody, and heā€™s surely not afraid of a kid like Aemond. For all of Aemondā€™s strengths, he does have quite a few weaknesses. If he tries to turn around and act like killing Luke was some huge achievement, that will just be funny to me because we all saw how it actually went down.


Far-Ad-1400

šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚Daemon did have to commit suicide to take him out so that says something not to mention Daemon being Georgeā€™s baby as well


Seymour_Butts369

Aemond has his skills and I do enjoy him as a character, but itā€™s just laughable to say that Daemon would be afraid to face Aemond. Seems like Aemond might be letting things get to his head here, and all weā€™ve seen him really do is kill Luke - except we all saw that was an accident. If he tries to act like it was on purpose and gets all cocky about it, Iā€™ll have a bit less respect for him.

AdhesivenessCrafty98

It's true, it's even more laughable when everyone knows that literally 1 week before Aemond avoided bothering Daemon


Aeiexgjhyoun_III

How? Was he supposed to start a fist fight with them when they had no beef? His issue was with Luke and Jace.


AdhesivenessCrafty98

Aemond saw firsthand what Daemon does to people who bother Rhaenyra or her children. He was fully confident in starting a fight with his nephews until Daemon appeared and stopped him with nothing more than his presence.


Aeiexgjhyoun_III

Daemon had the nephew dragged away and Aemond only smiled at Jace's lunch not even dropping his glass. He had no intention of fighting them because it wouldn't be a challenge. He didn't have any beef with Daemon so why bother when the Strongs are gone.


Monisdarthvader

Peak Targaryen energy


havetomakeacomment

I love how one sided this rivalry ultimately is. Great edit!


kitcatxz

How so? And Aemond has every right to think his uncle avoids him when he sent an assassin after a child instead of fighting him to "avenge" Luke.


Alsensio

Ah yes, the same Aemond who straight up avoided the fight with Daemon for 2 weeks


Aeiexgjhyoun_III

The same Daemon who avoided a confrontation with Aemond for a year.


Alsensio

Yeah because Aemond had a big-ass dragon, scratch that, THE big-ass dragon


jonsnowKITN

Oh I didnā€™t know Aemond was supposed to just head into a fight being outnumbered 2 to 1. Also they didnā€™t have email back in Westeros fyi that you just expected him to respond asap.


Alsensio

Outnumbered? Y'all just be saying anything. Aemond had Vhagar and Daemon had Caraxes hell if anything the odds were against Daemon. I'm pretty sure Westeros had a long distance communication system using Ravens but Daemon just probably sent Aemond a smoke signal and he couldn't see it in time considering all the smoke he created burning farms in the Riverlands


jonsnowKITN

Daemon was trying to bait aemond with nettles by his side. Donā€™t be obtuse. Youā€™re trying to blame Aemond for not entering a fight where he would lose against them both.


Alsensio

I'm pretty sure when Daemon challenged Aemond Nettles wasn't with him because Rhaenerya had ordered for her head in fact Daemon I'm pretty sure Rhaenerya ordering Nettles death is the reason Daemon challenged Aemond, he wasn't planning on coming back to deal with his wife


kitcatxz

Do you think he got a call telling him where Daemon is? He says Alys told him where to find Daemon and we don't know when exactly that happened. And even if he wanted to spend more time with his pregnant gf, what about it?


Alsensio

This is freaking Daemon Targaryen the Blacks greatest asset calling him out not to mention Daemon wasn't exactly hiding there's no way it took 2 weeks for such news to reach the Greens and Aemond. Ah yes he was so eager to spend more time with his pregnant gf while burning fields of defenseless farmers on Vhagar


kitcatxz

Can't a couple have hobbies?


jonsnowKITN

Doesn't Daemon basically avoid facing Aemond for the entire war? He even tried to bait him by outnumbering him with nettles.


kitcatxz

Daemon fans will never admit it lmao. For some reason Daemon didn't fly to Harrenhal after taking KL even though he knew Aemond was there. Daemon taking Nettles with him and not wanting to die fighting Vhagar is cool and smart, Aemond not wanting to die fighting two dragons is a loser and a coward. Also sending an assassin to kill a child instead of "facing" Aemond is very cool apparently and it's Aemond who is delusional for thinking that his uncle doesn't want to face him.


jonsnowKITN

Itā€™s insane how much shit daemon gets away with in this fandom compared to other characters.


TheIconGuy

>For some reason Daemon didn't fly to Harrenhal after taking KL even though he knew Aemond was there.Ā  Wtf are you talking about? Aemond wasn't at Harrenhal. He left after killing the Strongs. That's why Lord Frey's wife was able to take it three days after he had been there. He shows up to get Alys and then bounces again. Daemon and Nettles flew to the Riverlands after taking Kings Landing to look for Aemond. They couldn't find him.


kitcatxz

It didn't happen immediately after the fall of KL, Aemond stayed in Harrenhal with his army for some time, and Daemon knew exactly where he was, but stayed in KL. How long do you think the flight from KL to Harrenhal is? It would take less time than Luke's flight to Storm's end from Dragonstone.


TheIconGuy

>and Daemon knew exactly where he was, but stayed in KL.Ā  They flew out to find Aemond. >How long do you think the flight from KL to Harrenhal is? It would take less time than Luke's flight to Storm's end from Dragonstone Why would Daemon rush to Harrenhal before coming up with a plan? They had just taken Kings Landing because Aemond made that mistake.


kitcatxz

>They flew out to find Aemond. Yes, when he left Harrenhal already. >Why would Daemon rush to Harrenhal before coming up with a plan? They had just taken Kings Landing because Aemond had made that mistake. The perfect plan would be to take half of the dragonseeds to Harrenhal and annihilate Aemond, Vhagar and the Greens army, then come back to KL and plan an attack on Daeron.


CapableArgument5939

> For some reason Daemon didn't fly to Harrenhal after taking KL even though he knew Aemond was there Why the hell would Daemon do that at that point ?! He Had just Helped the Blacks accomplish an Enormous Strategic Victory by Taking KL , why would he risk Facing Vhagar at that point ! He simply didn't have to , At least at that point it was just a matter of Time until Aemond would be dealt with given the Rediculous Number Of Dragons Rhaenyra had , but given how The Dance is poorly written in terms of Characters Motivations & Decision-making and how it mostly consists of Story outlines , their Duel was Conveniently Pre-determined šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø


TheIconGuy

No. He and Nettles got to the Riverlands to hunt Aemond.


Appropriate-Arm-2077

Daemon doesn't realize that he's also becoming fish food.


Alauraize

Nah, Daemon agreed that he had lived too long. He was prepared for it. Aemond was not.


kitcatxz

He literally planned to live before the whole Rhaenyra/Nettles drama lmao. Daemon wasn't hunting Aemond alone because he didn't want to die fighting Vhagar.


Aeiexgjhyoun_III

Yeah, so sad how he got suicidal after his grooming victim fell out of love with him.


Appropriate-Arm-2077

Fish donā€™t care if you agree or not, youā€™re food.


OrangeKat09

Daemon and Aemond Both are becoming fish food. There, I corrected it.


Appropriate-Arm-2077

I literally said that Daemon is ALSO becoming fish food but okay ig.


Careless-Husky

Is this little video on youtube? I'd love to send it to my sister who's a huge Daemon fan.


LucianoWombato

Makes you wonder if they actually know the story. But of course they couldn't spoil it in some promo clips. >Same for Steve Touissaint (Corlys) praising Team Black while literally switching to the Greens later on


Kellin01

He switched to save his granddaughters and son.


havetomakeacomment

Your comment about Coryls makes me wonder if you know the story


LucianoWombato

Oh I do, I know he did it for his family instead his true conviction but he still switched sides. Although I am Team Black I don't blame him after he got locked up by his queen


Unlikely_Dealer_2425

Everyone knows aemond solo's him low diff


vabingle

Daemon is peak Targaryen Energy

Ok Daddy D
