Summary
Alicent and Rhaenyra had met as they had ended, because of their fathers, in a room that felt stiff and impersonal, wearing high-end dresses that somehow clawed at their skin, with revised and respectful words on their tongues—she held a polite smile while Rhaenyra held a true Targaryen scowl.
OR
This wouldn't end another way, not even in a modern world.

Summary
“All you do is upset me! You possess this power over me to draw me absolutely mad!” Alicent yells, and she isn’t even sure why she’s yelling. She covers her face in her hands. Her eyes are stinging. She feels foolish and stupid and young all of a sudden, like she’s afraid of getting in trouble with the Septa.
“If it helps, you drive me mad as well,”
OR:
After Rhaenyra imprisons Alicent in the Red Keep, thinking the Dowager Queen betrayed her, Alicent wrestles with her mental health, her new circumstances, and what she now wants.
Maybe her time as Rhaenyra's captive will somehow teach Alicent how to truly be free.
Follows Season Three theories and speculation / inspired by the books

Summary
"Alicent Hightower will be my lady-in-waiting, as well as my Sworn Protector," Rhaenyra declared, her voice resolute, chin held high as if daring the gods themselves to challenge her. "And when I take the Iron Throne, she will be my Hand."
The room fell into a tense silence, each second stretching unbearably long. Then, like thunder breaking, a chorus of overlapping voices erupted—arguments, yells, protests. Amidst the tumult, Rhaenyra's eyes found Alicent's, and she grinned that mischievous Rhaenyra grin.
