[ the last thing he wants is to run into anyone else related to either woman. and he thought having one reptilian stepsister was bad.
the days following alicent's death feel empty in a new way, as if with every passing hour he believes less and less that she's coming back despite what everyone says. it's a terrible, shitty thing to say aloud. alicent's dead. you're fucking delusional. he doesn't say it to anyone except himself. after all, he's alive after danny johnson took a knife to his throat, so isn't his beating heart all the proof he needs? (isn't it the proof he needs that he shouldn't be alive, and so alicent shouldn't come back anyway?)
he knocks on rhaenyra's door, thinking about all the times it was alicent's door instead, to coax her out to do absolutely nothing in the maze or the gardens or the library where he'd read hamlet aloud in a dozen different voices. he puts on a face that doesn't look as morbid as he feels. he's here to be comforting, and he can do that as embry moore the politician even if he can't as embry moore the person. ]
