Something hilarious that the Bald Move podcast noticed:
You know how grumpy Lord Stark looks in the final scene?
It’s almost certainly not because he’s sexist and hates the idea of a Crown Princess, because it’s probably the result of coming *all the way down from the North* to hear this proclamation and make this oath when the Starks had actually supported Rhaenys’s claim to the throne years ago…
…which means they pointed at the female line with an already successful continuation into another generation, including a male heir in Rhaenys’s son, years ago at the much closer Harrenhall, got told they were wrong, accepted that decision, and then years later had to come all the way back down to Kingslanding for a decision that Viserys could expect them to accept if it weren’t the for the fact his own accession was against their advice and support.
“You idiots said we couldn’t have succession through the female line like we do on the North, the made me spend weeks on the road coming down from the North just to tell me you were doing succession through the female line anyway?”
