Young Aemond with courage was able to tame Vhagar yet adult Steffon with fear and trembling couldn't tame Seasmoke after all. Lesson of the day: Be bold and shake off all fear when facing fearful situations.
“Shake off all fear” that’s easy to say when you’re not the one staring into the eyes of a fire-breathing dragon. His Targaryen blood wasn’t strong enough to be a dragon-rider, plain & simple
If How To Train Your Dragon has taught me one thing, it'd be this: Don't go for the neck. Go for the eyes. Below it is the teeth. Bond and Trust is the essence between a dragon and its rider. Not Claim and Tame.
He made a mistake by being arrogant and on guard. When you claim a dragon dont show him that you are on guard by touching your sword and being arrogant just after. Its with bond, mutual respect and trust.
I think it was more when he showed calm after thinking he had claimed the dragon, dragons in this show are not just animals, they demand respect from their partners, and this guy only showed fear from the beast, and then felt he had won it, no respect to the dragon itself, Seasmoke felt has if it had been just a prize/object @@WSB1469
It almost worked. If Steffon hadn't wasted time and just gone on Seasmokes back it would've worked. But Seasmoke, also, probably already had Addam in mind.
Seasmoke took one look at that guy, remembered his last rider as well as Laenors Mother/Sisters/Wife (and Daemon if he ever met him) and then politely thanked everyone for getting him Take-out in his time of grief.
Well, the part that he has blood of the dragon was true it seems, the dragon acknowledged him, when he saw it, same expressions as Drogon with Jon, but Seasmoke was already interested in Addam Of Hull
NO, the dragon didn't like Steffon's fear and arrogance (''I did it''). Steffon didn't try to bond, he tried to dominate without being actually ''fearless'' or enough. So hubris killed him.
@@SorceressWitch The dragon bonding is random, but every single dragon who sees a Targaryen/Velaryon/Baratheon is fond of the person with Valyrian blood, will tolerate their presence, as Vermithor tolerates Daemon and Rhaenyra, Drogon tolerates Jon. When you are not a Valyrian the dragon will roast you as soon as he sees you
I saw this shit coming a mile away. His timid Valyrian and Seasmoke being agitated to begin with. Then his long ass walk up, like man hurry up.. whatevs, seasmoke figured I’ll go get my own rider.
This takes me back to when Aemond was claiming Vhagar. Dude was closed to being a luncheon meat but Vhagar sensed his courage and was liek 'aight let's go night flying and see if you go back to KL alive'. Fast forward and both are now key players in the dance🐉
Remember when after the Green's Coup, Daemon threatened Ser Steffon (and Ser Lorent) that if he betrayed Rhaenyra, he "will die screaming" in dragon fire instead of a "clean and honourable death". Welp, I guess many paths lead to the same destination
Him being scared annoyed Seasmoke but he was like "I'll give it a shot, let's discuss terms of the partnership" and dude was like "oh sweet you're my dog now" I think even among Targs and their off-branches, a deciding factor is being raised with respect for the dragon as a sentient being, not just a very large & dangerous beast.
I agree, to me the vibe Darklyn gave off was that of a brusque kennel master, everything seemed salvageable until the done it comment enraged the dragon, and the way he said it felt that he was handling hounds or horses, which was probably his life experience anyway as an aristocrat.
I think it was a mix of fear and what elenee1471 said. They told him to show no fear but it was all over him, and then he didnt treat it like forming a bond but rather like taming him.

Well, according to the Wiki (of the books) Dreamfyre is Seasmokes mother. And it is very likely that she is the mother of Drogon, Rheagal and Viserion as well. So that would make them siblings.
the 3 eggs that danny had were of Seasmoke. Drogon, Viseryion and Rhagael are technically Seasmoke children. Thanks showmakers made Seasmoke of similar features to three of them. Edit: eggs are of Dreamfyre and not Seasmoke
@@connormcmurphy4276 Yeah but he only roasted ONE keeper as collateral damage :P He's smart enough to take a little bit of care with the people who feed him.
You've done it!!! YOU'VE DONE IT!!!! Is what i imagine seasmoke saying 😭, he probably sensed fear and the lack of confidence then he said this shit ain't for me 😂
Why did you cut the burning expert cut his own throat, it was chilling and such a great way to see those dragon tenders are prepared to die for their craft.
That only applies to daenerys tho ,she's the prince that was promised, she's a special case ,she literally brought back dragons and magic with them too ( magic gets stronger with the presence of dragons in the world )
Man, I usually don't tense up from anticipation while watching movies/TV shows, but the build up to this scene really got me. I knew how he died from the book and wasn't looking forward to it. There's not much said about him in the lore but the series made him quite a likable, sympathetic side character. I'm glad his death wasn't worse than it was. I was expecting Oberyn death levels of brutality..
he did descend from House Targaryen, that was made clear when Rhaenyra outright stated his greatgrandmother was a Targ. its just unknown how recent the Targ ancestry needs to be for you to be able to claim a dragon... considering Addam claims one and we dunno how far back you need to trace Corlys ancestry till theres a targ its up for debate.
@@JuanRodriguez-im6ulit has to be a targ. Only 40 families were bonding with blood magic and Targaryens are the last one. Velaryons were like a middle income noble house back then who couldn't bond with dragons.
When I first saw this episode, I was expecting Vermithor to come out. Seasmoke chasing Addam down was cute and funny. He’s one of my favorite dragons now.
Seasmoke was not impressed at all and literally stormed off to claim a rider of his choosing. 😂
He went full thanos: fine, Ill just do it myself

I dont think Seasmoke appreciated his presumption lol
Seasmoke was like, “good morning, good morning, NOT YOU, Darklyn. 🔥”
I like how the guards had long twigs to defend themselves against the fire breathing dragon
those are dragonkeepers charged to take care of the dragons.
Yeah go kill a Targareyens dragon with a real weapon….. see how happy they are… there’s a reason they have non lethal weapons and not Ballistas…..
his point still fkn stands, if Seasmoke decided it was bbq time for multiple people, there's not a thing anyone there could have done about it
@@lukadzidic8211 his point doesnt stand at all, he was trying to say they should've had more lethal weapons instead of sticks. They aren't supposed to cause the dragons any harm....
@@appathegoat his point stands. they are fucking sticks. you have already LOST the argument. do not argue. do not reply. you have lost
As our cat's spare human, I can sympathise. 😢
if only he was confident enough and stop questioning if he's really done it or not and directly climb up the moment that fire breathing reptile offered him his back, I think ser Steffon is still alive now 😢😢
seasmoke is just like my cat when he rolls around on his back for belly rubs and immediately attacks my hand
Looks like drogon
a small version!!!! and different colour
Come to think of it, Meleys, Dreamfyre and Seasmoke do resemble Drogon. Definitely the same dragon species.
Well, according to the Wiki (of the books) Dreamfyre is Seasmokes mother. And it is very likely that she is the mother of Drogon, Rheagal and Viserion as well. So that would make them siblings.
I can’t inagine the health care plan for the dudes working the dragons ……
Asclepius
Good thing dragon trainers have those sticks
😂
😂😂😂😂😂
Seammoke was clearly waiting for some head pats and maybe a scratch behind the ear.
seasmoke is like the drogon of this series (looks wise)
the 3 eggs that danny had were of Seasmoke.
Drogon, Viseryion and Rhagael are technically Seasmoke children. Thanks showmakers made Seasmoke of similar features to three of them.
Edit: eggs are of Dreamfyre and not Seasmoke
Seasmoke is a male dragon , the eggs are dreamfyre's ,and seasmoke is probably dragon's sibling @@pareshkalekar5823
@@pareshkalekar5823 I think you are confusing Seasmoke with Dreamfyre
yes it's Dreamfyre ✋🏼😭
@@stitchedfreedom is it?
my bad
Walking towards sea smoke like you’ve crapped your pants is not recommended
seasmoke let him get closer so he wont hurt the dragon keeper
Lmao he burnt one of the keepers alive wtf do u mean
@@connormcmurphy4276 Yeah but he only roasted ONE keeper as collateral damage :P He's smart enough to take a little bit of care with the people who feed him.
I feel bad for that poor dragonkeeper, that burned with sir Darklin :c
steffon: ive done it
seasmoke: nah just kidding, your too old bro
"No, now you're close enough that I can specifically roast YOU without definitely hitting the keepers as well."
Beautiful creature. They are so peaceful. 😌
"Bro, you really thought you ate with that comment, huh? I've done it? Lemme cook u real quick" - Seasmoke
You've done it!!! YOU'VE DONE IT!!!! Is what i imagine seasmoke saying 😭, he probably sensed fear and the lack of confidence then he said this shit ain't for me 😂
Why did you cut the burning expert cut his own throat, it was chilling and such a great way to see those dragon tenders are prepared to die for their craft.
more like they knew that it was faster and less painful death, Darklyn suffered longer
He wanted to end it fast, burning to death is horrific and painful
He didn't show any love towards seasmoke ,& just said I have done it ,where seasmoke understood that's an arrogance
Or he was slow too 😂
Is a Dragón not a Uber car
He said “sike 🐉🔥”
It feels like this moment made Seasmoke feel like he was given permission to claim a new rider. So he chose one himself
Seasmoke to Ser Steffon: SIIKEEE
Darklyn : I've done it
Seasmoke : Dracarys? You got it boss
‘’He was no dragon, fire cannot kill a dragon’’
Lah? Aegon? 😂
That only applies to daenerys tho ,she's the prince that was promised, she's a special case ,she literally brought back dragons and magic with them too ( magic gets stronger with the presence of dragons in the world )
@@niraxlevi9930 None of what you just said was ever confirmed in the books or in the show. Daenerys only survived due to magic.
@@FemboyPrinceи даже так драконов молодых можно поджарить.
@@vincentiusricky9281Aegon isn’t dead lol
Man, I usually don't tense up from anticipation while watching movies/TV shows, but the build up to this scene really got me. I knew how he died from the book and wasn't looking forward to it. There's not much said about him in the lore but the series made him quite a likable, sympathetic side character. I'm glad his death wasn't worse than it was. I was expecting Oberyn death levels of brutality..
Lol you ok now ?
This episode was just amazing. This show is truly solidifying itself as the greatest. Rhaenrya is the best actress I’ve seen in quite some time
I was on edge when he was saying "Obey me."
Fucking what? That rarely works for Targaryens!
Lmfaoooooo this a petty ass dragon!!
Pretty good acting
They all displayed great emotion
Darklyn didn’t descend from House Targaryen. It was simply impossible for him to become a dragon rider
He was born inferior, simple as
he did descend from House Targaryen, that was made clear when Rhaenyra outright stated his greatgrandmother was a Targ. its just unknown how recent the Targ ancestry needs to be for you to be able to claim a dragon... considering Addam claims one and we dunno how far back you need to trace Corlys ancestry till theres a targ its up for debate.
@@qqq4200 Not necessarily targ. Any Valyrian ancestry will do.
@@JuanRodriguez-im6ulNo. It has to be a targaryen, Corlys has targaryen ancestry that's why his son can bond a dragon
@@JuanRodriguez-im6ulit has to be a targ. Only 40 families were bonding with blood magic and Targaryens are the last one. Velaryons were like a middle income noble house back then who couldn't bond with dragons.
When I first saw this episode, I was expecting Vermithor to come out. Seasmoke chasing Addam down was cute and funny. He’s one of my favorite dragons now.
i was like he did it! then he said ive done it. then i knew he was done
Yeah he messed up but Darklyn was pretty chill, felt bad about his death.
Why did seasmoke kill him?😮
He tried to tame seasmoke! And dragons will usually kill those who fail to tame them.
@@HAKIRAHH Thank you! Watching spoilers because I still have to wait here in UK 😭
Because dragon choose you
Smoked
He showed fear
Ser Darklyn: Well, that was easy.
Seasmoke: Yes, TOO EASY.
Seasmoke, "Well....we're waiting..."
