Wench & Kingslayer {Brienne♥Jaime}#11: Because... oh, just read the books!
Welcome to the 11th Wench & Kingslayer Appreciation Thread  * * * Shippers
* * * Testimonials coming soon...  * * * Favourite Bookquotes "You want her? Go get her." So he did. "Her name is Brienne," Jamie said. "Brienne, the maid of Tarth. You are still maiden, I hope?" Her broad homely face turned red. "Yes." "Oh good," Jamie said. "I only rescue maidens." "Ser Jaime?..."I am grateful, but...you were well away. Why come back?" A dozen quips came to mind, each crueler than the one before, but Jamie only shrugged. "I dreamed of you", he said. The unforgettable Harrenhal Bathhouse scene; "Has my tale turned you speechles? Come, kiss me or curse me or call me a liar" ... Her arm was all gooseflesh, clammy and chilled, but she was strong, and gentler than he would have thought. Gentler than Cersei, he thought as she helped him from the tub, his legs wobbly as a limp ****. "Guards!" he heard the wench shout. "The Kingslayer!" Jamie, he thought, my name is Jamie. And when Brienne learns of the Red Wedding, Jaime thinks "she looks so miserable he found himself almost wanting to comfort her." Then there is Jaime's dream of her, where he is focused on her warm touch and "In this light, she could almost be a beauty." "Blue is a good color on you, my lady,” Jaime observed. “It goes well with your eyes." She does have astonishing eyes. “Jaime, what are you doing?” “Dying.” “No, no, you must live.” “Stop telling me what do, wench. I’ll die if it pleases me.” “Are you so craven?” “What else can I do, but die?” “Live. Live, and fight, and take revenge.” "SAPPHIRES!" "The swords kissed and sprang apart and kissed again. Jaime’s blood was singing. This was what he was meant for; he never felt so alive as when he was fighting, with death balanced on every stroke." FULL LIST of all Jaime/Brienne moments/quotes/thoughts here     * * * * Fanfiction Recommendations Ten Years After- PG - Spoilers: Book 5 Like Joan of Arc - PG-13 - Spoilers: Book 3 The Lioness Ascendant - PG-13 - Spoilers: Book 4 At the Close of a Winter Day - PG-13 - Spoilers: Book 4 Remember Spring Swaps Snow for Leaves - PG-13 - Spoilers Book 5 No Pink Dresses - R - Spoilers: Book 3 For Honor's Sake - R - Spoilers: Book 4 Waiting For The Still That Will Follow - R - Spoilers: Book 3 Blessed Be Jubilation - R - Spoilers: Book 4 Lions for Lambs - R - Spoilers: Book 3 Come into My Castle - R - Spoilers: Book 4 *R's might occasionally cross into NC-17 sorry if that traumatizes anyone. * * * Fansoundtrack  # 1 You Will Be My Ain True Love – Alison Krauss And as you walk through death's dark veil the cannon's thunder can't prevail And those who hunt thee down will fail and you will be my ain true love and you will be my ain true love.. # 2 Should I stay – Gabrielle I feel your warmth, got me wanting more, you've left the door half open I'm in two minds to explore, but then again Am I being honest, being truthful to myself, can I see my life without you Could I be with someone else It seems I've grown attached, though we're not the perfect match I just can't explain.. # 3 I Wanna Know What Love Is – Foreigner I wanna know what love is, the love that you feel inside I want you to show me, and I’m feeling so much love I wanna feel what love is, no, you just cannot hide I know you can show me, yeah.. # 4 Return to Innocence - Enigma Don't be afraid to be weak Don't be too proud to be strong Just look into your heart my friend That will be the return to yourself The return to innocence … Don't care what people say Follow just your own way Follow just your own way Don't give up, don't give up To return, to return to innocence.. # 5 Belief – Gavin Degraw Tonight, you arrested my mind When you came to my defense With a knife In the shape of your mouth In the form of your body With the wrath of a god Oh, you stood by me.. # 6 Who Am I To Say – Hope Color me blue I'm lost in you Don't know why I'm still waiting Many moons have come & gone Don't know why I'm still searching Don't know anything at all & who am I to say you love me I don't know anything at all & who am I to say you need me.. # 7 Only Girl (In the world) - Boyce Avenue feat.

Because their sword fight was the hottest sex scene. Because they have the best bath scenes. "she was strong, and gentler than he would have thought." Because he wants her to make an honest man out of him. Because he told her all his secrets. “You are speaking of a highborn lady, ser. Call her by her name. Call her Brienne.” Because they are cliff divers Because they need to know what love really is before getting mercilessly squished by GRRM Because even the screen can't resist their chemistry Because we can’t wait to see J/B KISSING with their SWORDS Because they’ve already been naked together Because they dream of each other Because he thinks "She bleats like a bloody sheep." Because really anyone who is THAT interested in your sex life has to want to be part of it. Because she can make him shut up. Because in the end, it will be Brienne still standing by Jaime Because Bear Pit. Because some men like a challenge. Because he found himself that violent woman. Because he wants to get inside big Brienne. Some of them tried; Jaime will succeed. "He’s never encountered anyone like this; she keeps surprising him at every turn" B.Cogman  * * * Previous Threads 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 Icons      *credit skje * * * __________________

EEEEEE, new thread, thanks!!!
 (pssst Bo, pls don't forget to add the link to #10 in the Previous Threads.  )I was about to suggest "He’s never encountered anyone like this; she keeps surprising him at every turn" B.Cogman which we still have on the future titles list - - I'd almost forgotten that lovely quote.  However, "read the damn books" is about as relevant as the J/B ship can be. 'cause seriously...all you have to do is read the damn books.  Still no casting news for Hoat. (and as a side-note, I HATE that they got Mackenzie Crook cast and then stuffed him into such an insignificant role. What a spectacular waste of his talent.  )__________________

Tobias Menzies as Edmure should be brilliant. And I don't know either of the actors playing the Reed kids, but they look the parts!

LOVED that show. SO excited that they are making ASOS into two seasons. MUCH more J/B time to explore AND mmmmaybe GRRM will have some catchup time to get closer to the end (I think it will be 8 books. He said something like 2 1500 pp. books, which to me is actually just 3 books.) |

Out of all those kinds of people You got a face with a view I'm just an animal looking for a home Share the same space for a minute or two And you love me till my heart stops Love me till I'm dead Eyes that light up, eyes look through you Cover up the blank spots Hit me on the head Left of center. Which is probably why I'm drawn to J/B in the first place. |

Help! all you J/B fans. Why is our lovely new thread languishing on Page 2, unloved and forgotten?
 Are we so fickle that we forget them?! __________________

 Busy weekend! My love for the ship shall never abate. If you need a fan fic fix, you can always browse the LJ community. Most stories are cross-posted to FF.net or A03, but there are some hidden gems here at jaimexbrienne. T Also, Fallingtowers has lots of great J/B stuff but she moved it all to Dreamwidth. "House of Tomorrow" and "I'm in Love with the Ugliest Girl..." are favorites of mine. Currawong, I might be able to get you an invite to AO3. From what I understand each member has a limited number of invites they can give out. That is how I got a membership, instead of waiting months to get in. When you are posting a fic, let me know and I'll look into how that works.  Quote:

What a cute bear
Sadly, I don't think he was the one that Brienne met ... I always felt really sorry that he was just left there to rot  Thanks for the fic recommendations, Bo. I've read some of them before, and the two you suggested are good. __________________
