The Heir of the Dragon: A Rhaenyra Targaryen Quest

On the other hand, Harwin or Frey or somebody has the potential to turn into a proper polycule where everyone's together instead of just being Rhaenyra's harem. That can't happen with Gwayne unless since that'd be a bit too... targaryen for them, and Laenor is Laenor. So yeah, it has some level of added risk of drama, but it also has the potential to evolve to a more inclusive relationship than the safer Gwayne or Laenor ships do.

Eh, if we're gonna be a knight may as well go the distance with it.

If Alicent is gay (rather than bi) that'd nix a polycule from the get-go, so that's something to discuss with her.
Personally, I that there's merit in keeping things as simple as a chain of official relationship / affair. E.g. Alicent is dating us who's married to Husband who's dating Mistress or male companion. I don't think it's wise for Alicent (or us) to be in a heterosexual relationship outside of marriage - that just keeps rumors down & ensures there's no doubt about the kids.
It also reduces the potential for people to leak, because any of husband's mistresses or lovers shouldn't be told about Alicent. And it eliminates relationship issues that we don't have influence over.

Honestly I'm not that worried about Alicent's marriage? It'll probably happen, but honestly it's possible it could be averted, depending on how clear Otto was on the fact that he's effectively getting to be the father of the wife of the Queen On The Iron Throne.

Now I genuinely really want to marry Gwayne, even though I'm unsure it would be the optimal decision

I'm hoping at some point when he figures it out, Alicent gets some fatherly pride in securing for herself such an advantageous relationship.
I'm really hoping Otto doesn't freak and try to send her back to Oldtown or the Sept & force us to run away with her to dragonstone or something drastic.

Full bore: no she wasn't.
Rhaena was a lesbian who refused to fuck a dude, and also refused to promote him to positions for which he had no qualifications. In response to this terrible cruelty he murdered several people, including a child.
It is absolutely insane that people keep legitimising his rat bastard complaints. They have no standing. None.
If Alicent feels uncomfortable being named Queen of Love and Beauty, the solution is clear: Rhaenyra crowns herself with the flower garland! (Jk)

I was under the impression she and her companions bullied him somewhat, but perhaps I'm misremembering. I agree that bullying does not justify murder.
