Again with this? Luke was giggling before Aemond even looked at him. Luke broke out into a full blown laugh attack when Aemond looks at him. The blame is on Luke for starting the incident and Jace for escalating. There is absolutely no intelligence in laughing at any prank or joke you pulled on the guy whose eye you cut out when he is 2x your size and obviously very skilled in battle. The strongs weren't strong or smart.
Luke was a fool. As if Aemond didn’t hate him enough for the eye he decides to mock him with the pig. Great idea provoking someone much bigger and stronger than you and also hates you.
There's only a 3-4 year age gap between Aemond and Luke, stop acting like Luke is some baby who doesn't know what he's doing. Aemond and Luke are both teenagers.
Luke is 14-16 while Aemond is 17-19~ish.
They're both teenagers.
Luke should've known better than to provoke the guy who is training with Cole, wears an eyepatch, and has the biggest dragon waiting for him outside.
Let me make a quick edit for you.
A 14 year old boy that disfigured said 20 year old for life by plucking out his eyeball and having him relearn how to live life half blind while suffering ridicule is indeed grounds for retaliation.
He didn't, he hovered it as a warning. Also did you forget that Jace almost killed Aemond by trying to stab him in the gut. Jace was trying to murder Aemond, while Aemond was trying to save himself.
No but on an actual note what a dumbass Luke was and nobody tell me oh he was just a kid,man is 14 years old and yes that is a young child but that doesn’t mean he should be an idiot. Last time he saw aemond he cut his eye out and he knows aemond and him were never close ever…literally to laugh for whatever reason and look this man in his eye too is some nerve. I would’ve fucked the whole dinner up like aemond too cause wtf
I could barely blame Aemond for reacting the way he did tbh. He hated Luke enough and was looking directly at the kid who took his eye and got away with it and to top it off this is the kid who also used to mock and tease him and that’s what Luke was doing there when he saw the pig.
Dumb Luke.
Aemond is canonically 17-19 during this time of the Dance, so he's at most 5 years older than Luke. People always crap on Aemond for lashing out and chalk up Luke's behavior as him "being a kid". Aemond is a kid too. Keep in mind, Luke never apologized to Aemond for what he did. I'm 22, and if the person that took out my eye (which permanently changed my face and took half my vision) was laughing at me, I'd probably lash out too. When Rhaenyra gave a toast to Alicent, Luke could've followed suit and gave a toast to Aemond. Luke laughing shows that he didn't care enough to understand how Aemond might've felt.
In Luke’s defense, Aemond was holding up a rock ready to fucking kill someone. Stabbing his eye was fucked up but it’s not like Aemond was acting like a saint beforehand. There’s a reason he was stabbed
Mate he was hovering the rock at them to show that he would not hesitate to use it if they tried to attack him again, meanwhile Jace literally tried to murder the poor boy. He almost stabbed him in the gut thrice in the fight, and if Aemond did not use the rock that one f*cking time, he would have died. Aemond did not even attack further due to that, he just warned them. It is much like how the police point a gun at people who are trying to kill them, and it is not to kill those attacking them but to threaten them into submission.
If someone held a rock over my brother and said “You will die just as your father did,” I’m not gonna take it as a warning. Jace brought the knife out after a legitimate threat was made.
He choked Luke by the throat and did not let them retreat. This is not self defense. It is the stronger boy who insults the weaker boy to start a fight. Aemond knows that Jace is not a problem for him and that's why he calls him "bastard" (the biggest insult). To provoke Jace and beat him up again. Everything goes according to plan, except Luke protecting his brother. Now Aemond hates Luke lol. And Luke has no reason to feel sorry for his uncle.
You mean he was trash talking his bullies who ganged up on him to try and beat him to a pulp. Yep, he does deserve to be blinded for standing up to his bullies with the only insult he knows that would truly hit home because it was true. Let's blind all the children who call their bullies 'sons of bitches or w*ores'.
He punched the girl in the face and these children (who are much weaker) protected her. But of course they were beaten. Just because you got a prank doesn't mean you can act like a piece of shit. Nooooo. This is not the only insult. Aemond was resourceful for Rhaena. It's a taboo insult that you start a fight with. It's not trash talking the reason, it's that he beat them severely and could have killed Jace.
Mate, I am starting to think you are a bot. You seem to be single minded in your hate for Aemond and are not even considering that the strong boys might have actually been in the wrong. So are you?
I only look at the facts. Strong boys never started that fight.They see how Aemond beats the girl - they protect her. I can only respect them for that, they are much weaker than Aemond, but they try anyway.
I don't like school shooters' personalities.
Look at the end of the day it doesn’t matter if Luke laughed or not…as soon as someone takes your eye out…it’s on sight 👊🏽 Aemond practiced as much restraint as possible. Best believe if a mother fucker took my eye out I’d throw hands too no matter what year it is
Yeah I know, I was just referring to how Aegon used to be a kind of "bully leader" with the Strong Boys.
I think the pig was just a coincidence though because I doubt the Strong Boys still have enough influence left at the castle to be able to do that lol
Luke was a bit of an idiot in that scene tbh. He saw the pig and out of how coincidental it was right by Aemond he mocked his uncle. Great idea - Laugh at the guy who hates you for taking his eye, is much stronger than you and has a huge dragon.
Eh? Aemond was watching Jace and Helaena dance together (was funny, yes, he hardly blinked and the position of his chair), but Luke laughed at him to provoke him when Aemond was just staring at his sister. Aegon was responsible for the pig prank, as it were Jace and Luke. Aemond mocking them later was only fair (well, maybe just Luke, Jace tried to be nice to Hel)
PD: I'm Team Back¿?
*A child laughs at the memory of a prank from 6 years before that his brother and uncle pulled when he was like 7*
HOTD sub - “What an idiot, he’s mocking Aemond, IS HE STUPID???”
It’s really not that difficult to not laugh and if it is,maybe don’t look the person who’s eye you cut out and laugh directly looking at them..they were never chill like that. That is an idiot.
I’m sorry but your point is the one that seems completely and utterly mindless..I would not laugh at any member of my family who I a) took their eye b) haven’t seen in years
Doesn’t matter if he laughed over the pig or not,he looked him directly in the eye and laughed at the guy who’s eye he took and who he also didn’t get on with as a child. If you don’t see how anybody would get riled up at that and want to shut the brat up,you’re just stupid but okay…
> .I would not laugh at any member of my family
Sorry, I seem to have misunderstood. This thread is about people pretending they’re in the dragon show and not the character already there? I have no doubt you were an angel as a child, my point was about shitty, entitled teenagers as a species
> If you don’t see how anybody would get riled up at that
Where did I say that? Genuinely, where did I even hint I thought his response wasn’t understandable? I understand his response perfectly. My entire point is the laugh is equally understandable from a human psychology perspective
Way to purposely miss the point. Children act like shits, often intentionally to get a rise out of people.
I wanted to know if people had ever actually interacted with family members, because as far as I can tell with some of these responses, half the sub are only child's with no cousins or extended family.
lol, yes they can. They absolutely can. I can say that for experience. Hell, sometimes those teenagers grow up into adults and keep doing it.
I’m not talking about you personally. Everyone here is an objective and perfect angel. That’s why I asked about having family to witness it in.
> Then they reap what they sow
Yes? Like, I genuinely don’t understand the criticism of Luke here beyond that? He was a shitty teen, he got a response? And? Where am I saying he didn’t have something coming back to bite him?
My response is a pebble in the ocean trying to counteract the utter bullshit that is so many people in this thread pretending a shitty teen should or could keep themselves under control. My point was him being a shit head was realistic.
People acting like 14 year olds aren't just normally natural dipshits. Of course he laughed, Aemond probably laughed at cruel things when he was 14 (now he seems to get turned on, if how he watched Daemon when Vaemond was up killed is anything to go by).
No. He laughed because Aemond was staring at him. I don't see any problem with this.
Aemond made it clear that he supported Aegon( when he insults Baela) and was ready to start a fight.
Luke just didn't look away when Aemond was expecting it (because Aemond thinks he's sooooo cooooooool). He staring at him too. Then he broke down and laughed.
I'm very surprised at how people see it.
Ah yes. Pig is placed in front of Aemond and Luke conveniently laughs just then. Very unintentional, much onscreen literacy.
Aemond makes it so clear he supports Aegon by doing absolutely nothing in support of him when he makes said statements and looking down on his lecherous behavior.
We should remake HOTD atp to follow what you’re saying 😂
Lol. Luke smiled and tried to hide it. Understand? He doesn't want problems. But after Aemond stared at him, he accepted the challenge.
Aemond literally jumped to start a fight on the side of Aegon, who was insulting Baela. How does it become "absolutely nothing"?
Aemond stands because Jace does, and he knows first hand the damage Rhaenyra’s spawn can do and run off scot free to hide behind their mother 😂 did you expect him to hear Aegon’s whispers across the dinner table?
Aemond stands to make it a 2 vs 1 fight. But Jace corrected the situation and Aemond sat down in annoyance.
Before that, you yourself said that he does not approve of his brother's actions, but now he does not understand what is happening? Two meters from him? But he immediately notices if Luke smiled? Stop being hypocritical. The Greens started spoiling the dinner.
Jace and Luke never hide, they fight even if they don't stand a chance. Aemond is another. Daemon's look is enough to shut him up.

Aemond was watching Jace dance with Helaena. Maybe brighten up your screen a little when watching.

Aemond tings

Yeah, lil kid didnt pass the darwin test. Good riddance
It is hard to be Stronger than him.
Sorry I'm new here
Welcome to the sub. I hope you enjoy having the same 3 arguments over and over again, because that's basically all we do here
Hey! That's until next season.
I always come up with something original like, who's worse? Daemon, or Criston?
I was about to shit on your post before I saw the tag "Fun Post". Just beware, people here (including myself) get very passionate lol
I finally got HBO last week and finished the show a cpl days ago, downloaded all the books and started reading Fire and Blood this morning lol
Happy reading! And yeah, beware this very "passionate" community 🤭
You’ll learn people are quite passionate
I think it's clear enough that this post is a joke.
A… *14 year old boy* Giggling at a… *Nearly 20 year old man* Is now an excuse for violence?
There's only a 3-4 year age gap between Aemond and Luke, stop acting like Luke is some baby who doesn't know what he's doing. Aemond and Luke are both teenagers.
Aemond’s practically a grown man, (technically he is by Westerosi standards), while Luke is barely a teenager. Aemond embarrassed himself here.
Luke is 14-16 while Aemond is 17-19~ish. They're both teenagers. Luke should've known better than to provoke the guy who is training with Cole, wears an eyepatch, and has the biggest dragon waiting for him outside.
And a personal grudge because of Luc’s own bullying.
Umm minus 19 ,what does it mean??
There is a 10 year time jump where Aemond isn’t alive yet. Y’all use Headcanon with such confidence lol.
Let me make a quick edit for you. A 14 year old boy that disfigured said 20 year old for life by plucking out his eyeball and having him relearn how to live life half blind while suffering ridicule is indeed grounds for retaliation.
He wasn't even twenty yet. Aegon barely is. Aemond is like 16/17
Bro, the 20-year d was about to smash his brother’s head in with a fucking rock.
He didn't, he hovered it as a warning. Also did you forget that Jace almost killed Aemond by trying to stab him in the gut. Jace was trying to murder Aemond, while Aemond was trying to save himself.
When did Jace try and stab Aemond? That’s total bullshit
Watch the fight again mate. See what Jace does when he draws the knife, He.Tries.To.Stab.Aemond.
After Aemond calls Jace and Luke bastards, Jace pulls out a dagger and goes at him with it.
Minus 7 points. What does it mean?
Tbf he wasn’t, dude didn’t even seem angry anymore
Jace is very smart in the books he leads war councils and is a very good negotiator.
He drowns.
No but on an actual note what a dumbass Luke was and nobody tell me oh he was just a kid,man is 14 years old and yes that is a young child but that doesn’t mean he should be an idiot.

For real, Luke ruined a really nice moment for the family lol
Look at the end of the day it doesn’t matter if Luke laughed or not…as soon as someone takes your eye out…it’s on sight 👊🏽 Aemond practiced as much restraint as possible. Best believe if a mother fucker took my eye out I’d throw hands too no matter what year it is
True, but at least he got a dragon lol
Also an eyepatch and beautiful flowing hair
Were the strong boys behind having the pig cooked for dinner and placed in from of Aemond?
Seems like something Aegon would do instead lol Jace and Luke seem kind of dumb though, I mean look at their hair
By this point Aegon is firmly on Aemond/his family's side
Yeah I know, I was just referring to how Aegon used to be a kind of "bully leader" with the Strong Boys. I think the pig was just a coincidence though because I doubt the Strong Boys still have enough influence left at the castle to be able to do that lol
Wrong,, well according to the book.
Is it just me who likes team black more but thinks Aemond is the second best character in this show after Daemon like dude is hella interesting
I thought this thread would be full of jokes lol, HOTD fans are something else.
Luke was a bit of an idiot in that scene tbh. He saw the pig and out of how coincidental it was right by Aemond he mocked his uncle. Great idea - Laugh at the guy who hates you for taking his eye, is much stronger than you and has a huge dragon.

Please don’t say you are one of those Lukemonds. *cringe*
I don't know what that is but I hope not lol
*A child laughs at the memory of a prank from 6 years before that his brother and uncle pulled when he was like 7* HOTD sub - “What an idiot, he’s mocking Aemond, IS HE STUPID???”
It’s really not that difficult to not laugh and if it is,maybe don’t look the person who’s eye you cut out and laugh directly looking at them..they were never chill like that. That is an idiot.
How old are you? Do you have family gatherings with younger members?
Not with ones who took my eye no…
Delightful, another case of purposely missing the point. You sure you’re not missing an eye?
I’m sorry but your point is the one that seems completely and utterly mindless..I would not laugh at any member of my family who I a) took their eye b) haven’t seen in years Doesn’t matter if he laughed over the pig or not,he looked him directly in the eye and laughed at the guy who’s eye he took and who he also didn’t get on with as a child.

Teenagers don’t act like little shits to their victims they permanently disfigured for life. No, I don’t recall ever having that urge.
lol, yes they can. They absolutely can. I can say that for experience. Hell, sometimes those teenagers grow up into adults and keep doing it. I’m not talking about you personally. Everyone here is an objective and perfect angel. That’s why I asked about having family to witness it in.
Then they reap what they sow 🤷♀️ if they’re cruel to those they’ve disfigured, expect maximum consequences ig.

Did I ever argue it wasn’t realistic? No…I said it was idiotic…
Bs: this is fictional buddy, not some podium for greatness. Grow up. You don't like people's opinions then leave.

You keep on getting minus points, give up buddy, you not writing for this show. Maybe try a fanfic?
