Hi! I’m not going to address much of this because your opinion is yours and it’s fine if you don’t like the Strong boys or the fandom. You clearly don’t want to have an actual discussion about our maybe diverging thoughts, and hey, that’s cool! You do you.
But I did want to clarify a couple things: I wrote this in close third perspective and Aegon III, his canon self, was highly depressive. He worshiped his older brothers-also canon-and at this point in canon timeline thinks Viserys is dead because he left him behind, and his wracked with guilt about it (Viserys doesn’t reappear until after the marriage to Daenaera). So when Aegon is upset at his “failings” or thinks Baela should have the crown, it’s not because I think he’s a usurper. Considering canon Aegon III was like “give the crown to Gaemon Palehair” I don’t think it is a stretch to see him as a depressed child who has a difficult relationship with kingship.
I like playing with POV, one thing GRRM does that makes me love his work. It’s okay if you’re not into it, but I did want to point that out. I have different opinions than the characters in the fic.
If you hate the fic, that’s fine, but maybe it’s not for you. If you wanna hate read it, that’s fine too. I’m probably not going to reply again because I do this for fun, not to be insulted. Love constructive criticism or real discussion, not so much being insulted for my takes on things in my own fic.
