I'm fine about this parallel
always alone, even in a crowd
You're impossibly fast. And strong. Your skin is… pale white, and ice cold. Your eyes change color… and sometimes you speak like - like you're from a different time. You never eat or drink anything; you don't go into the sunlight. How old are you? Seventeen. How long have you been seventeen? …a while. I know what you are. Say it… out loud. Say it. Vampire.

HOUSE OF THE DRAGON — 2.02 “Rhaenyra The Cruel”
House of the Dragon is an enjoyable show, but I think that to really appreciate it you have to have read the books, and I say this as someone who hasn't. The problem is that the first season went way too fast and it didn't develop some characters properly, and even this one just keeps introducing new stuff without giving the viewers time to adjust. I see book readers say how excited they are to see a new character, but I just can't share their feeling because we'll probably see said character for two episode before it's killed off. And this is a big problem in my opinion, because many things that should be heavy with feelings for the characters just fall flat. (ex. blood and cheese)
Where are the slow beginnings? Where are my filler episodes? GIVE. ME. TIME. TO. GET. TO. KNOW. THE. CHARACTERS.

Honestly the people who say that Aegon II is a good father because he didn't really touch his daughter under the pretext that she would be like Helaena are killing me in their bullshit.
There's no confirmation that his daughter hates being touched. She didn't have any type of startle when Aegon brought his hand closer and barely touched it. She acted like she didn't care about his presence or noticed her, just interested in her toys.
And I remind you that he just approached her to look for her son and when he saw that it wasn't him he had no interest in this kid and he is more than certain that the interest sudden decision that Aegon II bears to his son is only because he is now his heir to the throne.
Be reasonable, this guy doesn't even know that his son has lessons or even where...
