- asking became desperate begging. She won't let this go until she gets what she wants, I fear.

She is very much like Daemon. Too much, in fact. She is Daemon in miniature, if you ask me. She has wanted this since she was old enough to be taught about the dragons. I know that both Daemon and Princess Rhaenys introduced her to Caraxes and Meleys when she little. As soon as they did that, her -

What is it with my niece and burning things?!

*Viserys is lost in thought about his niece wanting a dragon. She may be able to handle that particular......responsibility. He wonders of @ofoldvalyria.bsky.social would have any advice on the matter*

- she was told to go. I will be there shortly to speak with the two of you on this.....incident.

- to be more stern with her. She seems to only respect you and that is discomforting. I want to know why she insists on not heeding my many warnings to her on this. She is too much like you. It is maddening! You need to control her, Daemon. She looks to you as an example. See to it she went where -

- declare them political headaches. He loves them both bit they are trying his patience. He looks to Alicent* Get your father and meet me in the Small Council chamber. I need to speak with you both on this matter. *he then looks to Daemon* Seven Hells, Daemon! Alyssa has shown no respect. You need -

*Viserys hears the arguments against his orders and then fixes Alyssa with a stern glare as she spits the High Valyrian insult at Alicent. He is appalled at her vulgar language and knows full well where she learned it. As Daemon speaks to Alyssa in High Valyrian, he makes a point to mentally -

- You and I will be having a chat later. I will also have words with Alicent and Otto. This ends now. There will be a change in attitude from both of you girls.

Perhaps if Alyssa stopped taking the bait as it were, things would not escalate. She should know by now not to react to such things. *Viserys sighs* I simply want the matter finished. Alyssa, give the dagger over. What in Seven Hells do I have to do to get this to end?! Go to your chambers, Alyssa.-

- As far as Alicent is concerned, I am sure Otto @cunninglordhand.bsky.social does his best. He is caring for her on his own. You know that struggle, Daemon.

*Viserys raises his voice as the fight continues* ENOUGH! Clearly none of you understand the concept of ending this incessant fighting! Alyssa, I may be your uncle but I am also your King! And you know how I feel about this behavior and language. Daemon, you need to reign your daughter in as well. -

- your father or myself. Now!

*Viserys reaches the girls a second after Daemon. His expression just radiates ezasperation* I do not care who instigated it, this feud needs to cease. Immediately! Alyssa should know better. *he fixes his gaze on Alyssa* Have I not warned you many times not to touch this dagger, child? Give it to -

Do I look like your father? I am at my wit's end with this. It ends now. Do I make myself clear, Alyssa? I will be having words with Daemon about this. He lets you run wild.

*Viserys sighs in frustration. This child is about to go on his list of political headaches* Language, Alyssa! I know how very like your father you are and this is pushing your luck. Your dragon is not to bite anyone. And you are to show my Hand and his daughter the proper respect. Understood?

I heard you, my dear niece. You were going to smuggle your dragon to bite Otto and Alicent. I won't have it. Do you understand me, child? If your dragon bites anyone, there will be consequences.

*Viserys is standing behind her and clears his his throat* And what do we think we're doing?

//Nope. It's all ok.

//The test worked. You replied successfully.

//Will be getting this account going soon.

-He sends word that they are to meet him in the Small Council chamber as soon as they receive his message. He sends the Cargyll twins to deliver the messages*

- unpredictable. He cannot quell anger from them both at the same time. He can barely handle them one on one. He hopes they will take the news well. –

Starter for @princessofdragons.bsky.social and @riderofsunfyre.bsky.social

*Viserys sends for both Aegon and Rhaenyra. He has important news to share with them. He is, however, unsure how they will take it. Both his son and his daughter have been known to be –

He was the last rider of @ofoldvalyria.bsky.social

He never wavers in his determination that Rhaenyra is to succeed him on the Iron Throne. Otto hatches a secret plot to install Viserys's oldest son Aegon on the throne upon Viserys's death. Viserys is blind to the plotting of his Hand. Even at the end, he holds fast to Rhaenyra as his heir.

He does have children by Alicent but chooses to continue to dote on Rhaenyra and her children. This leaves him blind to infighting within the family for some time. He eventually has enough of it and declares that it must cease. He fails to stop the infighting, and by extension the resulting war.

Viserys becomes annoyed with Daemon's fixation on Rhaenyra. He ends up wedding her to Corlys's son Laenor, repairing the rift between them. When Rhaenyra has children, they are declared her heirs by Laenor and Viserys will hear nothing to the contrary. Nor will Alyssa, apparently. She defends them.

This draws annoyance from Viserys, who refuses to step in and offer aid for quite some time. When he does finally offer aid, Daemon rejects it and deals with the situation himself with only the Velaryons on his side. They prevail and he returns home victorious, welcomed by Viserys.

He does eventually take a second wife, choosing Otto's daughter Alicent over Lord Corlys and Princess Rhaenys's daughter Laena, thus snubbing Corlys. This causes a rift between them. It leads to Corlys helping Daemon deal with the conflict in the Stepstones behind Viserys's back.
