12-year-olds, dude.
OK, Daemon is consistently terrible, but there’s no reason to let the rest of this crew off the hook. I find Viserys to be a sympathetic character overall, a guy who gets forced into bad acts to avoid even more disastrous consequences, but I do think that his love for his brother blinds him to the danger that Daemon represents. Does it ever really work to try to sideline an ambitious hothead? Someone truly ruthless, like Cersei Lannister, would have eliminated Daemon long ago.
He blanches at the idea of marrying Corlys’ 12-year-old daughter, but it’s open season on 15-year-olds? I doubt Westeros even has an age of consent, but that seems, as my teen would say, a little sus.: Are Corlys and Rhaenys the Worst for offering up their tween daughter, the Lady [sic] Laena? Corlys lays out a strong political argument, in that it would join the oldest and most powerful houses in the realm and silence stirrings about the stability of Viserys’ succession. But still … ick.
