“In the ’80s we were called black, at least politically black. In the ’90s we were ‘Pakis.’ But after 9/11, suddenly we were Muslims. What you start getting is this rising conservatism of the Muslim community in Britain. People’s parents used to watch Zee TV, now they’re watching Islam Channel. I saw so many people who used to be D.J.s, rude boys. They chopped up their vinyl, grew beards. So you had the retreat of British Muslims from culture post-9/11. Because people all have to pick a side.”

Brienne: and you have… no preference, of the three?

Jaime: I mean, I wouldn’t call it “no preference”

Brienne: ok can I have a hint then?

Jaime: no I wanna see what you come up with

Brienne: uhhhhh ok you’re a liar?

Jaime: rude

Brienne: uh ok… how about… may your hair go grey sooner than it would have?

Jaime: kind of a weak ass curse, but still rude

Brienne: ok so you didn’t want me to call you a liar—

Jaime: of course I didn’t

Brienne: and you didn’t want me to curse you—

Jaime: duh

Brienne: but you said you had a preference, and there were only three options, and I just did two, and you were pretty offended by both…

Jaime: like don’t read too much into it? What do I know? I’m delirious. This bath? Is so warm

Brienne: Jaime, do you want me to kiss you?

Jaime: what would give you that idea? I mean, honestly just wow, where would you come up with such a crazy—

Brienne: ok so I won’t then

Jaime: haha yeah good I’m so glad we won’t be kissing in this warm relaxing intimate bath

Brienne: …

Jaime: so…glad

Brienne: wait so do you want—

Jaime: yes! Please kiss me! How much clearer could I be?

D: Hello, it’s Daniel Portman. I play Podrick Payne.

N: And I’m Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, I play Jaime Lannister and I’m here in Belfast.

G: We are in London, in our underwear.

P: in our underwear!

G: Nikolaj said earlier that he’s wearing briefs.

“In a different world, Jaime would’ve stayed with Brienne. What he has with Brienne is something different, it’s a very pure, innocent love.”
