Jamie and Blackfish || Audiobook

[@abednegokurio9244]

"The Blackfish was looking at him the way Ned Stark looked at him", Jaime acts like he doesn't care but he just has so much damn pride. I love this character.

[@Violesada]

a great line

[@MrBell-iq3sm]

But it's also contradictory to his previous actions. He explained to Catelyn that the Starks were nothing to him, and yet he seems bothered when Ned Starks looked at him in judgement. He laments that people condemn him for taking out the Mad King, which saved the city, and yet he never told anyone but Brianne over a decade later what really transpired. So what is it? I feel like the author used too many aspects of the original Jaime when he crafted the final version, but some elements don't mix very well.

[@remembertotakeshowerspleas355]

@@MrBell-iq3sm "He explained to Catelyn that the Starks were nothing to him" He was lying to Catelyn and himself. Well he probably doesn't care that much about the Starks in general but Ned was one of the most respected men in Westeros. Having a guy like that constantly disparage you for your honor has gotta sting, especially if you're part of an institution that's supposed to be super honorable. Basically any time someone like Ned or the Blackfish shit on him he's not just being attacked on a personal level but being reminded of the fact that he's failed to live up to the ideals of the Kingsguard and will never have the respect of the honorable knights and lords which he once aspired to be. "He laments that people condemn him for taking out the Mad King, which saved the city, and yet he never told anyone but Brianne over a decade later what really transpired." Because he was too proud to explain himself or seek forgiveness. Hence the constant use of the lion motif.

[@MrBell-iq3sm]

@@remembertotakeshowerspleas355 And what made Ned so respectable? He was a side character during Robert's rebellion and didn't fight the most important battles. We're not talking about constant disparagements, but rather a look, because this is what Jaime remembers and brings up. A look from a stranger. You say Jaime was too proud to simply explain, a rather understandable situation. Everyone knew how crazy the King was, that he was obsessed with Wild Fire and that the pyromancers had a great deal of sway over him in his last weeks? This explanation would have made his life easier and also improved the standing of his family. I believe bits and pieces from the original Jaime, who was a rather evil character, remained, creating strange situations, which seem either illogical or require mental gymnastics to rationalize.

There's a theory that since Jon is heir the Blackfish and the other northern lords still loyal to the cause do their best to hide it even going as far as speaking down upon him to completely hide it from the Lannisters and anyone else they'd consider an enemy so that no one could figure it out and they could wait for the right moment to unite under again under Jon's leadership though it's only a theory but it does make sense in a way

[@PedroLucas-mg5je]

[@yadisdis4207]

Dude Lady Stoneheart is one of the most evil forces in the series. Catelyn was basically nothing but hatred, and Stoneheart is that unshackled. Catelyn loved Ned but hated Jon for Ned's crime, she would give the North to Vale "lordlings", not even the most supreme houses, When Robb tells her Jon is his natural heir should he not produce a child, she compares Jon Snow to Theon Greyjoy who she thinks killed two of her sons. She hates Jon so much she'd let House Stark be destroyed.

In one of her last acts she tries to convince Robb to give some Vale random her beloved Husbands lands, but definitely not one of his sons. For what othe reason than hatred? Her feelings of anger and revenge, Stoneheart is likely incapable of mercy. Is Catelyn nothing but hate? No. Why did I say that? Because sometimes people exaggerate on the internet to get their point across.

this eleven minute segment alone has so many iconic, badass, funny, and thoughtful lines in it alone. George RR Martin is a genius.

[@comrade_marshal]

[@CommanderLongJohn]

Travesty how the show depicted all three characters, particularly Manderly who basically doesn't even exist. Oberyn was reduced to comedic relief half the scenes he had, all of his juicy dialogue completely cut out, and the fact virtually all of this dialogue wasn't used is an absolute sin against humanity.

[@thanosalaarson8290]

One of my favorite moments. He gets to understand bluntly how much of a piece of crap he is and can’t pretend otherwise(even though he does). From “I’ll swear any oath you require” to the fact that he would have broken a peace banner tells you all you need to know about the character Jaime Lannister. And That’s without the attempts to murder children or breaking his vow of not siring children and his usurpation of the throne

@@MrBell-iq3sm Totally agree, it is very weird to refuse thrice your older brother. Look at what Stannis went through for that same reason. But that's why he's the Blackfish, the outcast.

It would be interesting to hear Brynden's real thoughts on Robb Stark and Jon Snow. My guess is that Brynden was aware of Robb's plan to legitimize Jon and name him heir. Robb must have told Brynden more about Jon than "I'm doing this to keep the North away from the Lannisters."

[@didncozosksma4466]

If I remember right, Edmure allows Brynden to escape from Riverrun, his whereabouts are unknown at this point. My guess would be he’s with Howland Reed as a ringleader in Robb’s will.

[@blooper6543]

@@didncozosksma4466 I agree. After taking Riverrun, Jamie lifts some sieges in the Riverlands, including at the seat of the Blackwoods, and asks about Brynden. I think it's safe to say that Brynden is not in the Riverlands, so it's probably right that he is trying to rejoin the Stark forces that went to Howland Reed.

Robb named Jon his heir in the books. The Stark Banner on Riverrun means probably Brynden has acknowledged Jon as King in the North, but he will hardly tell Jaime about it, especially as Jon himself has no idea at this point.

[@CommanderLongJohn]

​@@kingofdragons7She really didn't, and especially not as viciously as she did in the books, the first and only time she ever called him by his name (when he's leaving Bran's bed for the Wall) only to say it should've been him that fell instead of Bran . . . . She even recognizes how *semi* common bastards are, how Robert had multiple acknowledged bastards including a girl he was going to bring to court until Cersei put an end to the notion. There's an understandable level of hatred/disgust, but she went past that line.

In these times children born out of wedlock were considered evil or cruel. Blackfyre rebellions that haunted the Targaryens for 3 generations were because of Bastard children and Ned never revealing who the woman he slept with to sire Jon Snow didn’t make matters easier. Of course Ned wouldn’t falsely accuse a woman because of his honour so he kept it a secret. Ramsay Snow, Joffrey Baratheon were both bastards and were despicable human beings, Jon Snow is the exception not the default.

Blackfish was in the Vale at the time while Catelyn was in the North. You can't impregnate a woman from 1000 miles away. The Tully words are "Family, Duty, Honor." Blackfish left the Vale to serve in an impending war in which his family was going to war. This war saw Blackfish's homeland turned into a ravaged frontline with his childhood home, Riverrun, immediately being put under siege. This whole crisis was started due to the murder of Jon Arryn, who Blackfish had served under during Robert's Rebellion. Not everything is about adultery and sex.
