All Jamie&Brienne fans after episode 4
Not to scream but Nikolaj has liked a tonne of Braime things AND liked the post with the petition for him and Gwen to work together again.
I love these two so much
Characters Season 8 Fucked Over
Jaime: had a literal whole ass character change in the space of like 20 minutes of screen time, literally went right back to the man he was in s1 ep1 for no reason other than d&d have some fucked up incest kink and the man who had been through so much from losing his hand to killing his king to charging at a dragon was killed by a brick for absolutely no reason when it made no sense for his arc and if he moved five damn meters away he would have been right as rain
Cersei: was reduced to and I quote ‘just a girl and she’s just scared and he’s there to comfort her’ like she’s not been the biggest most badass villain for the past 8 seasons, they are seriously telling me she didn’t have a plan and was just going to go out via ceiling when she was ready to kill herself AND TOMMEN in 2x09 just to stop anyone else from hurting them smh and she was killed by a fucking pebble, I guess ‘fuck prophecy’ was absolutely right because it meant nothing, they couldn’t even be consistent with how many children she has because d&d gave cersei the random extra baby in s1 but then maggy said she’s have three children, bullshit its all bullshit
Tyrion: got everything he ever wanted despite being a murderous kinslayer, who sold out his best friend, one of the two people who had shown him any kind of affection (he ended up killing the other one too) in order to try and get back in Dany’s good books, and who was complicit in genocide and the deaths of his brother and sister (and their unborn child) now he’s lording it over Westeros even though he’s a literal rat
Brienne: got to be a glorified bodyguard, perpetuating the stereotype that if you aren’t stereotypically beautiful, you can’t be loved and have a family. She didn’t even get to be a bodyguard for the person she swore to protect and we have no explanation for this nor did we get to see her reaction to the news that the love of her life has been killed because I guess fuck Brienne rights
Jon: is literally irrelevant to the plot and all he says is ‘my queen’, was brought back for no reason, sent to the NIght’s Watch for killing a genocidal pyromaniac (???) because Grey Worm, someone with absolutely no authority whatsoever demands he be punished, while he is happy with Tyrion having complete power in KL, and then fucks off to Naarth anyway so the whole thing is completely fucking stupid, oh and him being a literal Targaryen was not relevant at all
Sansa: gets to be QiTN but is completely alone with not ONE named character at her coronation when all she had ever really wanted was her family
Arya: ‘I’m Arya Stark of Winterfell and I’m going home……….but after I have threatened to murder my sister for a bit and then killed an ice man I will leave to go west of Westeros (????) leaving my family completely alone’
Bran: ………he doesn’t want to be Lord of Winterfell…….he let everything happen, the deaths of thousands of men women and children, just so he could be king????
Daenerys: had the potential to have an AMAZING dark plot twist but it was rushed so the actual significant development happened in like 3 episodes and was killed in the shittest, most underwhelming scene that was clearly written for two entirely different characters (Jaime and Cersei) so it made the scene seem completely ooc and disjointed
Theon: was killed for absolutely no reason because Bran obviously fucking knew Arya would save him and Bran let Theon die anyway…. for the lols????and especially with Jaime’s death, proving there is no such thing as redemption without dying
Missandei: was introduced to the show in chains and died in chains
Euron: was meant to be an amazing villain but instead we got……a comedy value squid pirate I mean
Bronn: why the fuck did he want to be master of coin with actual responsibility, thats the literal opposite to everything we’ve ever been told that Bronn wants
Sam: is grand maester even though he has forged ZERO links on his chain and there are actually fully qualified maesters at the citadel
Edmure Tully: the man was there when his whole family was slaughtered, held prisoner and was tortured for years, was tricked into betraying his uncle which therefore resulted in the blackfish’s death, and he was brought back for some half arsed attempt at comedy
The Night King: was literally defeated in about an hour despite having 8 years of build up about how he was the real threat
Davos: not had anything to do since s6 and probably wishes he died with Stannis
Melisandre: was essential brought back just to tell Arya to shut some ‘BLUE EYES, green eyes and brown eyes’ even though Arya never actually shut any significant green eyes and spent seven seasons banging on about azor ahai for it to be irrelevant
Ghost: didn’t even get a goodbye from Jon in 8x04 for no fucking reason
Nymeria: who?
Rhaegal: was killed by fucking EURON with impeccable aim, despite GRRM saying dragons are nearly impossible to kill, and then immediately after Euron’s aim goes to shit so he should never have been able to kill Rhaegal
Drogon: apparently has a fucking PhD in political science, yet doesn’t kill the man who murdered his mother??
Unnamed Prince of Dorne: is fucking unnamed
Yara Greyjoy: Theon who? she only knows dany, the genocidal pyromaniac who murdered thousands, her queen
Grey Worm: Literally slaughtered innocents and prisoners of war for no fucking reason
Varys: was sold out by his best friend because he was trying to protect the kingdom, and has no cock did you know?
Podrick: has a magic cock did you know?
Robb, Catelyn and Rickon’s ghosts: they didn’t even get a fucking mention
Ned Stark’s ghost: ‘the lone wolf dies but the pack survives’ well obviously fucking not since that pack is completely alone
Rhaegar Targaryen’s ghost: literally caused a fucking war, abandoned his wife and made his children bastards and married A LITERAL CHILD because he was so convinced their child would be the prince that was promised………well he’s just Jon Snow apparently and is completely irrelevant
Rickard and Brandon Stark’s ghosts: everyone keeps saying ‘Roberts rebellion was built on a lie’ when they still were brutally fucking murdered by the mad king and that was no fucking lie
Tywin Lannister’s ghost: Tyrion is his legacy, fucking Tyrion
Margaery, Loras, Mace and Olenna’s ghosts: Bronn, fucking Bronn.
Honestly I have never laughed so hard at anything GoT related until this.
Glad I can bring some joy, I started off semi serious and but by the end I was like FUCK IT ALL FUCK EVERYTHING
Guess I’m just gonna stare out windows with a single tear rolling down my cheek for the rest of my life.
we’re alive…

Okay, I saw a post going around about filming locations and what it means for Braime. But. I didn’t see where it cited sources! So I went down a rabbit hole:
In May 2018, Gwen posted an Instagram in Seville. Seville is Kings Landing.
June 5, 2018 is when Gwen posted the tiptoes picture of her and Nik in the unicorn shirts. When Nik posted his own version, the location was tagged as Belfast in Ireland.
June 7th one of the camera crew posted a picture in Ballycastle, Ireland about the commute to work.
Some time between June 5th and 8th, Nik posted and insta story of either a sunrise or sunset in Ballycastle, Ireland.
In an interview in March 2019 Nik did an interview where he said his final scene was in a beautiful location and he must have had allergies (joking about crying).
In the April 2019 Esquire Singapore, Nik got way more specific and said: “It was the perfect ending. I shot in this beautiful location. Obviously, I have to be careful here — it was the most beautiful place in northern Ireland. We had this amazing scene we’d been shooting for a couple days. It ended. The sun was setting. It was really spectacular.” This is important because he got WAY more specific with the Northern Ireland bit.
To the best of my knowledge, Ireland has never been used for King’s Landing, that’s always been in Spain (more specifically, Seville). Ireland has been used for a bunch of places. But Ballycastle specifically was mostly used as the Free Cities. The nearby Ballintoy Bay has been used for the Iron Islands.
Anyway. All of this is significant becauseeeeee. Episode 5 is in King’s Landing, aka Seville, aka filmed in May. So you would have to suppose that episode 6 is at least partly filmed in Ireland (not King’s Landing) in June. And since Jaime is now headed for King’s Landing, and it’s quite cold in the North, and they haven’t been ANYWHERE that looks like Ballycastle with Jaime or Brienne yet. Well. It would be quite strange for them to stop somewhere lush and green in the middle of winter in June 2018 when filming was completed in July 2018.
So either it’s a dream sequence, they filmed MASSIVELY out of order and in a nonsensical sequence for Nik and Gwen, or. Well. Make up your own minds. If anyone wants links, I got them. I’m just on mobile right now and lazy.
gendry: im cold
arya: here take my jacket *winks*
brienne: jaime, im cold too
jaime: what? *taking off cape* i told you to bring more layers but of course you didnt listen and now *piling furs on her* now look, ive got to make sure you dont FREEZE to death and *taking somebody else's hat* how long have you been cold you should've said something sooner
- A Storm of Swords
Just wanted to talk about this for a second:
Losing my mind currently because, in just a single glance, he manages to honetly and ruefully admit for the very first time that he harbors romantic intentions toward brienne (pls give nikolaj every single award bc it’s a real feat). He wants her, in all the ways no one had realized, as if to say, “sorry, tormund, I know it wasn’t obvious, I know you had no idea (even I barely knew until now), but with me and brienne….it’s like THAT.”
Part declaration, “back off, I’M with her” but also part realization, “holy shit, I want to be with her,” it makes for such a loaded glance, is incredibly revealing of jaime’s state of mind in the moment, and just UGH…That’s romance babey!!
