I have a store near me with over 50 <| sep |> idk if you remember but in the books she has many moments od doubt , like when she leaves Meereen with Drogon . Exactly , show is missing key beats with some characters like Jon or Dany . Jon is a just a footsoldier to them simple guy . Unlike in the books where he shows prowness for millitary tactics , actually quite smart in Northern politics , planned with Stannis his campaign where to go , who to talked to and how he prepared for the Long Night that is coming fot them . With Dany they ' re missing this self doubt If I look back , I ' m lost or house with the red door is what she really wants and not the Iron Throne . She does this pursuit of IT for her family and not because she wants like on the show . On the show she seems too regal , stone cold badass Queen , who rarely shows emotions . When she ' s just a scared child in a cruel world . Emilia is perfect in emotional scenes but for some reason they didn ' t gave her that much of material to work with . As for the rest . Any ruler who was on the IT seemed arrogant one way or the other . It ' s a not a criticism for her but just an observation . She wants to rule but also helping people . I think DD said she ' s a successful conqueror but not a ruler . Any ruler needs advisors and listen to them . Which is where Dany got an advantage over Jon . Whether she ' ll be only a conqueror or as Tyrion put in the books Dany is above all else a rescuer .
