the fair maidens won't cease looking upon me and mine squire sparring as they mutter "which might mean naught"

ik the circumstances themselves cannot be removed from the equation but brienne being the one person whose approbation jaime craved badly enough to actually confess is so good to me. not ned, not barristan, not anyone else. she is the one person he actually could not stand viewing him as irredeemable to the point that he finally cracked despite all of the baggage impeding it

he sees her as unequivocally true. jaime obviously actually is bothered by people’s judgement, but brienne’s just has a different weight because of what he sees and identifies in her. how sincere and genuine she feels to him. it is so heavy that it crashes his walls down.

dont respect anyone who's answer to 'who's ur favorite asoiaf character' is some rando mentioned in f&b. how do u have an entire series full of interesting and varied characters with deep personal lives and ur fav is still glup of house shitto
