It's supposed to be about a long-term character, though. Aegon doesn't fit that.

fake, since there is no-one else to fulfil the 'murmers dragon' prophecy. Also, one targaeryen prince reveal is enough, thank you. Also GOT axing him is indication enough that he won't be important for the story (if he was real then Dany cannot claim the Iron Throne).

I just hope that new wrinkle that GRRM had decided to go with this is that fAegon is now Aegon. The change adds up to me. The showrunners discard him because he's a fake and GRRM wants to throw us a wrinkle. He's not going to change something else last minute like Jon's parents. Is it Aegon? www.ew.com/article/2015/04/03/george-rr-martin-winds-dateIt says "long term character" so I don't think fAegon fits the bill. I'm not really sure who he's talking about, tbh. I thought maybe something with Jaime or Brienne.

The first topic of ASOIAF that 94% of the fandom can agree on.

I think he's a pretender but I also think he doesn't know it. Which, if you think about it, is even more brilliant. Dramatic irony is always great and Mr. Martin is particularly good at it and has done it a lot with various POV other than the character in focus so it works so well and Aegon not realizing he's not the real deal would keep everyone on edge wondering how or when someone will invariably spill the beans on him (Which is something we've been waiting forever to happen with the fake Baratheon kids too). I'd highfive so hard if I could! I thought it was brilliant the way fAegon convinced Tyrion by his own reaction of who he supposedly is, which wouldn't have happened if the boy himself hadn't believed it in my opinion. Tyrion is astute and if the young kid would have hesitated everything in that plot would have gone to pieces. I'm extremely curious however if JonCon knows... Or Lady Ashara Dayne. Excuse me, I meant: Septa Lemore. I think they are in the dark as well.

I don't think it matters if fAegon is real or not because after all his campaign is based on his belief on being the real son of Rhaegar. That's how everyone else will see it and record it and I think that matters more than his actual lineage. Tbh I don't think we'll ever find out if he's fake or real.
