A bit about Jaime and Cersei, plus new-ish pictures of Nikolaj Coster-Waldau.

I am successfully re-reading through "A Feast for Crows", only 150 pages left! I will finish the book by Tuesday, it seems. One of the in-your-face things that I noticed is how much Jaime loved and still loves Cersei. This feeling seems to be so sad and so one-sided, as there is nothing in Cersei's chapters to indicate that she ever loved him in any way other than as her own mirror and as a convenient sex-buddy. But he is still so much in love with her, I am really interested to find out what is going to happen to them next.

I am so saaaaaaaaaad! And a little bit shipping them together, may be one day she will learn what she had and let go of (I mean Jaime's love)?

There is a handful of new Nikolaj Coster-Waldau pictures:

I think on my first reading I for some reason concluded that Jaime is much more in love with Brienne than I notice it now. I ship them so much (so it must have been my wishful thinking), it is sad for me to read all those passages where everything he could think of is Cersei.

And yes, Brienne is so much better, it seems that Cersei can not care less for Jaime. I AM SAD! What if Jaime does not love Brienne and what he feels is just friendship/respest/whatever?

I am not too worried about the vow, I think Brienne will not keep it if she makes it.

It would be nice to have cersei realize what she's lost when its too late :)

It would. I don't think this is likely to happen, though. She does not seem to care.

i actually don't think jaime loves brienne yet. i think it is coming. although you make a good point about jaime maybe never wanting her. idk. i think of how he jumped into the pit with the bear. and how he now says her name...and how brienne calls out for jaime when she is in trouble.

it looks like it could happen. it feels right to me because when we first meet jaime, there is no way he would give this woman a second thought. now he's dreaming of her and coming to her rescue.

i almost wish it would just so cersei can lose it all over again. she would think he'd gone mad. but i think you're right - she does not seem to care.

Yes, i agree with you. I think this is possibly the early-middle stages of falling in love and it can go either way. I do think Martin will continue the way his started, but at the same time - Martin? I would not try to second guess him. He is a mystery.

I think Brienne is fully in love with him, though. She does remember Renly, but more in a vague, "I can not remember his face" way.

but all in all, I do not think those two will be ever .. cough couhg .. doing it. As much as I want them to, I do not think theirs is this type of love. I think we are in for years and years of UST.
