Season 1 Ep 4 basically….
“On the morning of my eighteenth nameday, my father came to me. ‘You’re almost a man now,’ he said, ‘but you’re not worthy of my land and title. Tomorrow, you’re going to take the black, forsake all claim to your inheritance and start north. If you do not,’ he said, ‘then we’ll have a hunt, and somewhere in these woods your horse will stumble, and you’ll be thrown from your saddle to die. Or so I’ll tell your mother. Nothing would please me more.”
RANDYLL TARLY FUCK YOU
I’ve seen some videos of humans with ravens they’ve trained giving them kisses and obviously I could not imagine Jon doing this with Mormont’s raven bc a) Bloodraven is in there b) Jon’s lizard brain can tell that this bird is evil and will eat his face one day and c) the only animal he’s giving kisses to is his best boy Ghost 😤 but on the OTHER hand I absolutely CAN imagine that if Sam became friendly enough with a particular raven to not be afraid of it he would be giving his raven friends little beak kisses ALL the time while Jon looks on, dubious yet deeply fond, so you’re all welcome for that image ❤️

asos spoilers
just have to say that sam i in asos is written so well. sam’s thoughts jumbled together as his mind slows from the cold, the weariness, and the trauma. memories coming back in bits and pieces with so many gaps in between. grenn and small paul risking their lives because they won’t leave sam behind. sam giggling while calling himself a craven, so sure he’s going to die, as he kills the other. and finally, grenn pushing them forward to catch up with the group, and sam promising that he’ll try as he takes one step at a time.
CHILLS
They just mean a lot to me.
“She has more courage than she knows.” “So do you, Sam. Have a swift, safe voyage, and take care of her and Aemon and the child.” Jon smiled a strange, sad smile. “And pull your hood up. The snowflakes are melting in your hair.”

“So do you, Sam. Have a swift, safe voyage, and take care of her and Aemon and the child.” The cold trickles on his face reminded Jon of the day he’d bid farewell to Robb at Winterfell, never knowing that it was for the last time. “And pull your hood up. The snowflakes are melting in your hair.”
A Dance with Dragons, Jon Ⅱ

One thing I love about Jon the most is that he remembers. He loves. Hard. It’s the smallest details that tell of his heart. How many times has he recalled snow melting in Robb’s hair - I do not think it’s a new observation. But it still amazes me from time to time, that he finds so much sadness, love, and perhaps comfort in a mere glimpse. And amongst them all, maybe this one with Sam is my favorite.
He meant it for Sam, you know. Not just thinking of Robb - not the only reason. But he truly felt a pang of fondness for his friend at that very moment. It’s almost overwhelming. Sam would never know why Jon said those exact words, why he said that like a farewell and yet, at the same time - the strange, gentlest Take care, take care. It’s past love and present love all at once. And yet. It’s only one of the thousands of relived memories sweeping over him.
