This is my prediction for how the dance of dragons is going to go
RHAENICENT APPRECIATION WEEK 2024 [6/7] au: romcoms (and more!) - part one
rhaenyra embodies love is the death of duty
alicent embodies duty is the death of love
and this is why they are the ultimate yin/yang tragedy. they complete each other and oppose each other beautifully.
Rhaenyra and Alicent deserve to have weird, nasty, unsafe sex in their 40s that freaks out their kids and ruins their backs. And with your support, I will make them.

And even if getting Rhaenyra in as a soloist was a staggering show of nepotism, she was still the best concert pianist on the planet. It was like when Dmitri Junior recorded Shostakovich’s second. You could get mad about it for a bit, but it was ultimately fair game. Alicent had already reached all these conclusions because Viserys had spoken to her weeks ago about programming the Concerto, which only had the unwanted effect of giving her time to turn it over in her brain like a particularly nauseating Rubix cube. Each solution of the puzzle led her to the same conclusion: she would be seeing Rhaenyra imminently, and there wasn’t a damn thing she could do about it.
After ten years apart, Rhaenyra Targaryen re-enters Alicent’s life for a set of solo engagements with her orchestra. Things go about as well as expected (not very).
