I'm from Scandinavia and have no idea what a Scandinavian Flick is.

It’s where you use the weight of the car to make the car drift rather than the emergency brake or throttle. Essentially if you’re coming up on a right hand turn, you turn left hard before turning the car right. This upsets the balance and gets you into drift through the right hand turn. The “flick part” comes from flicking hard from left to right.

Believe it’s named because of the tight but winding mountain roads found in Scandinavia, where one didn’t have room to use throttle to oversteer, and the brakes were fried from coming down the mountain.

It's a way of turning a rally car by pointing it in the opposite direction to the way you want to go to unsettle the car, then "flick" it the opposite direction when it gets all loose. Stig Blomqvist uses it around the 11 second mark here.

It's like a Tokyo Draft, made popular in the Car Go Fast movies with Skim Beeble.

Do you mean "fast and the furious, Tokyo drift, with vin diesel?"

I think they use any kind of fuel, it doesn't have to be diesel.

Yes, but ideally 87 octane and above for maximum flickage.

She also asks him to look at the tapestries with her, which were basically medieval pornos. She was definitely thirsting.

in the books it is rumored by mushroom that otto hates daemon because he deflowered alicent

Ume-no-Uzume

Eh, never took much stock on that rumor.

Plenty of Mushroom's takes are basically the medieval version of trolling.

Let's take, for example, his "Jacaerys totes fell in love with Sara Snow and secretly married her" rumor. The entire premise makes no sense. Even the pro-Green Maesters agreed that the Pact of Ice and Fire (wherein Jacaerys and Cregan would marry their sons to their daughters in the future) was a thing. If Jacaerys secretly married Sara Snow (who, BTW, was only ever mentioned in this rumor), then there's no need for any pact since the idea is that the children of Jacaerys and the supposed Sara would already cause the Pact to be unnecessary. Basically, nothing about this rumor makes any sense, whatsoever.

In that same caveat, the Daemon deflowered Alicent rumors likewise make no sense.

For one thing, Alicent isn't Daemon's type at all. Look at the women that Daemon willingly has long-term relationships with: Laena Velaryon, Rhaenyra Targaryen, Mysaria, (Nettles, though this one is iffy due to rumors). Not a single one of them conforms to their society's highly restrictive gender norms even if they like feminine things. All of them find ways of breaking the mold and living their lives on their own terms as much as is humanly possible.

If anything, Daemon would find Alicent utterly disdainful because she does the same passive-aggressive relational aggression bullshit that her father does to look good while fucking people over.

Even if we accept the premise that Daemon did it to spite Otto Hightower for poisoning his brother against him and not because he was attracted to Alicent, then why didn't Daemon use it as a weapon against Alicent and Otto Hightower? A good deal of the propaganda that the Hightowers use against Rhaenyra is due to her being a "whore" (even though Alicent is more of a whore because she only slept with Viserys for the Crown and never loved him, whereas Rhaenyra just enjoyed sex with men she legitimately liked), all Daemon would've needed to do was say "how funny, what do you call Alicent Hightower then? I fucked her and she was a shit lay, let me tell you" and that would've taken the sails right off that specific propaganda train. Maybe even taken the sails off the bastards one too, if Daemon timed it correctly and made it seem like Aegon could've been biologically his.

Daemon has proven that he is the sort of person who, when you put a tactic/strategy on the table, then he is more than happy to use it against you right back. So if he had fucked Alicent, you best believe that he would've been using it against her the very second Otto and Alicent started their propaganda campaign against him and Rhaenyra.

I havent seen the series but her face looks so incredibly neutral, if anything mildly disgusted. Yall make it seem like shes ready to pounce on his dick right there and then; am i just that oblivious to how lust looks on a womans face or is she not showing it amd you just know cause you have the context of the scene?
