DAENERYS TARGARYEN (GAME OF THRONES)

How I feel about this character: Oh, my khaleesi. I completely and utterly love Dany, and I am totally rooting for her to succeed and to rise to the top in the end.

My unpopular opinion about this character: While I love Dany with all my heart, I acknowledge that she isn't perfect. She has made decisions that in hindsight weren't for the best and she has fucked up and made plenty of mistakes along the way, the major one being her entire storyline in Meereen. But it's because of her faults and being flawed that makes me love her as much as I do, and it makes me root for her even harder. She has, like all characters in this series, taken missteps and has fallen down a bit from her path. My only wish for Dany is that she doesn't discard these mistakes because of her fears ("if I look back I am lost"), and instead learns and grows from them so she can rise back up, prioritize and get back to her original main objective of heading to Westeros.

The reason I feel like this is unpopular is because, through much observation, I feel like many seem to oversimplify her character a lot, either underestimating or overestimating her capabilities, without really truly understanding the nature of her arc. People either place her on a pedestal (mostly because of her dragons) or they demonize her and her decisions, and I think it's rather unfair and it misses the point of what her character is going through at points in the story.

One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon: In book canon, I want her to get to Westeros, or at least at the Wall so she can see what is happening in regards to the Others and the danger that is escalating for everyone and how she can help. I also want to see her meeting Jon because I truly believe they are connected, in more ways than one. In show canon, I wished that the House of the Undying was done properly, all the creepy visions and prophecies and all.

My het ship: Dany/Drogo, Dany/Jorah, Dany/Jon Snow

My fem/slash ship: Dany/Margaery, Dany/Irri, Dany/Doreah

My OTP: Dany/Drogo, and future Dany/Jon Snow

My OT3: Dany/Irri/Doreah

My non-romantic OTP: Dany/Grey Worm

My anti-ship: Dany/Daario. Ugh. -_-

A headcanon fact: Dany dreams of Drogo a lot. Sometimes she can't tell whether these are prophetic or normal dreams, but in them she is happy, and at peace. Sometimes they are surrounded by her dragons either amongst his khalasar or around the Iron Throne, other times they are with their unborn son and at the house with the red door. Other times she dreams of her family, the family she'd never known; a mother and a father, a brother who wasn't abusive and horrible to her. It is these dreams that she clings and falls into when she cannot deal with the tragedies and hardships that await her in reality, or the nightmarish dreams of prophecies yet to reveal themselves.

A scene/moment that sums up this character: I mean, obviously (http://youtu.be/afzEd-fCWq0). ;)

An idea I have for the character that I haven't written: I can just imagine Dany meeting Sansa and, at first being hesitant of her, her mothering nature will overcome her senses and want to take Sansa under her wing and protect her. I don't know why, but the very idea of them interacting and not being opposed to each other is everything I want.
