--> '''Alicent''': You aren't worried about your position?\\
'''Rhaenyra''': ''(With her head planted in [[LapPillow Alicent's lap]])'' I like this position. It's quite comfortable.
* One scene has Alicent put her head on Rhaenyra's shoulder, while holding Rhaenyra from behind and they gaze into a mirror.
* Even Episode 3 still shows Alicent trying to mend her bridge with Rhaenyra--with their interactions inadvertently coming off as a mutual case of WomanScorned--likelier to give their coming conflict at the Dance a very tragic edge.
* To their credit, Creator/MillyAlcock and Creator/EmilyCarey discuss having [[InvokedTrope consciously invoked it]] [[https://www.gaytimes.co.uk/culture/house-of-the-dragon-stars-address-queer-subtext-it-was-purposeful/ as they performed]].
* Episode 4 has Alicent becoming furious and upset to learn that Rhaenyra might have slept with her uncle Daemon. It comes off like Alicent is a ClingyJealousGirl with a crush, rather than being simply worried about Rhaenyra's position and reputation.
* Episode 7 has Alicent saying "(Duty and sacrifice) has been trampled under your pretty foot again." They seem to be developing FoeRomanceSubtext.
* Episode 8 has Alicent and Rhaenyra appear to forgive each other and bury the hatchet, after making sincere toasts to one another. Alicent gently touches Rhaenyra's arm, the one she cut in the previous episode, and Rhaenyra gives her a gentle smile in return, while promising to return to King's Landing on dragonback.
* Episode 9 has Alicent defying her father when the latter wants to elliminate Rhaenyra because she's the primary threat to Aegon's claim to rule, claiming that the [[spoiler:late King Viserys I wouldn't want his beloved daughter dead]]. Otto counters that Alicent herself also most likely didn't want her old childhood friend (and possibly OnlyFriend) dead because of their close bond together despite past grievances.
