Jamie: I was his uncle... I was also his dad. Ned: Me too bro.

[@obsolete5949]

Underrated comment😂😂😂

[@cs4155]

Pretty good.

[@mariavi33]

Mahir Faisal I would say that Ned was his adoptive father more than anything. He was much more a father to Jon than Jaime was to his children. Not that Jaimie really had a choice in that though...

[@mariavi33]

aman altaf What do you mean?

[@mariavi33]

aman altaf Yes obviously. But adoptive father is a common term used to describe a father that isnt biologicaly related to their child.

[@ruth80809]

You know I think both brothers and Stannis should start a band called "The Slayers". Both Nikolaj and Peter sing great. Someone even sent me the mp3 version of the song and listen to it sometimes. You know on second thought, I think Jaime and Tyrion should be a singing duo "The Kingslayer Brothers".

He's really a great character, way more complex than he seems in the beginning. I'm glad the show finally has him splitting from Cersei. He makes a turnaround to good guy earlier in the books.
