ULF THE WHITE and SILVERWING House of the Dragon (2024) 2.07 «The Red Sowing»
this but during the dance of dragons
i know that when a book describes dragons picking up their riders they probably mean scruffing them by the neck in their mouths like a kitten, but i always imagine something like this
THIS, Ngl I hope Jace dies with some sort of honor because, everyone else on Rhaenyra's team is starting to give me the ick. JACE RUN BRO,RUN WHILE YOU CAN!!!
Rhaenyra reminds me of those white moms who have kids with a different race father and then refuses to acknowledge that they don’t have the same privileges as her. like she’s had so much privilege and power her whole life she can’t even see the corner she’s just backed her child, her heir into. She’s so dense that it hurts. Jace is right. ALICENT was right. Having three fucking kids with a man whose genes had proved to curb stomp yours IS an insult! Not bc bastards are evil or anything, but it’s a fucking insult to Jace, to Luke, to Joffery to drag them in a situation where they’re constantly demonized for YOUR actions and then REFUSE to own up to it even when your child is begging you with literal tears in their eyes to not take the one thing that saves him from the bullying and harassment YOU brought onto them. At this point, I’m extremely grateful the story ends with the targs in disarray bc none of those white haired fuckers deserve the throne (except for Baela and Jace, with brown hair
And to make it even worse, Jace is RIGHT. When the war is over and your brown haired, pug nosed child who looks exactly like someone NOT his legal father is named heir and you’ve taken his ONLY symbol of legitimacy away what will you do then?? Hmm?? I swear…
haven’t watched the finale and i likely won’t, but it’s so interesting to see how rhaenyra, baela and jacaerys interact with the dragonseeds, specifically ulf.
ulf is starving. he is a starving man who survived a slaughter orchestrated by the woman he claimed a dragon to fight for. he is a starving man because rhaenyra and her allies placed a blockade. they genuinely cannot seem to comprehend why he is acting like this, why he’s as starving as a hungry dog, and it’s literally their fault. why would he focus on having manner’s at the queen’s table when this is likely the best, most filling meal he has had since the dance began? likely even before that!
there is such a large disconnect between the nobility and the smallfolk. they look at this man with contempt and disgust, because… why? he’s excited he, a nobody in their eyes, claimed one of the largest dragons? because he can finally eat a good meal?
i’ve seen people bash him because he didn’t treat rhaenyra with respect. does every character have to kiss and kneel before her feet? he’s not being rude when he says she should make him a knight, he’s just holding her accountable. jace’s internalized bastardphobia has quite literally nothing to do with ulf, it’s not this man’s fault that boy is pouting and angry! is threatening a man who just, quite literally, risked his life, survived a slaughter, and claimed a dragon for rhaenyra truly a good idea? if he was killed during the red sowing, no one would mourn him. no one would remember him. someone else would claim silverwing and he’d never be mentioned by the blacks again.
this man is an innocent they inadvertently starved with their blockade, who they look down upon just for existing. but, apparently, since he doesn’t bow to rhaenyra and jace’s feet, he’s an annoying, arrogant man. i will not be surprised whatsoever when he inevitably betrays them.
Dragon Headcanons for my fic Part 3.
Syrax
Her eating habits and lack of hunting instincts have earned her a reputation of being spoiled
She is friendly with humans and is very perceptive of their feelings/ emotions
Alicent once referred to her as "the prettiest dragon" when she was younger
She , aside from Dreamfyre, lays the most eggs
Unlike other dragons, she seems to not have a preferred flight partner and tolerates them but does not have a bond with any dragon
Vermithor
Very vocal and roars during flights (for no apparent reason)
He only likes to fly next to Silverwing, who is the only creature he shows affection to
Has mismatched eyes one brown, one white steeming either from his time fighting in war or his time in the dark Dragonpit
He has a short temper which is displayed when he attacks ruthlessly
Given his many years in the Dragonpit, he hates dark and small spaces
Silverwing
Usually friendly with humans
Doesn't like the cold despite having experience flying in cold climates
She likes to sleep curled up next to Vermithor
The favorite of the dragonkeepers due to her gentle demeanor
She refuses to fly toward the North and even less so to the Wall (the reason why is unknown)
Bruh I just searched up Ulf the White's actor and I can't bro, he looks like someone's fun uncle 😭
(not complaining I was just caught off guard)
