The current image doesn't really give the idea of the trope, simply showing a guy sitting on a throne and another guy standing in front of him, with the caption being the only thing giving some context (and not being very good at it either).

I am not a fan of it, but this has been discussed so much. Keep until a better one is suggested

Maybe I have a suggestion. https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/plantkon_and_karen.png Caption could be something like "Whenever Plankton tries to steal the Krabby Patty's secret formula, he always fails. When his assistant computer wife tries to steal it, on the other hand..."

[up][up]That suggestion isn’t much better than the current, being long-winded in explanation, and also without context you would not know Plankton and Karen work together.

The current seems to get across the trope that the old man is the superior simply by being older. I say no pic for now for the page.

If we're keeping Tywin, I think we should at least use an image with a better view of him.

[tup] 8.1

If no better suggestions come up I will give [tup] to 8.2, it gives a sort of idea of Dragon-in-Chief with the black clothes guy walking forward while the guy on the throne is in the background.

Sorry for the double post but I just found an image that could actually work really well. https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/img_4629_6.jpeg

MoringMark has a creator page and social media accounts. He's no random fan artist, so we can ask him for permission if worst comes to worst.

[up] I mean, you could just ask him directly. You don't have to wait for others to do it. And you might as well because that's the entire work rather than half of a page.

Maybe someone could try contacting him on Instagram and Twitter (I can't contact him on either because I don't have accounts there).
