Game of Thrones (**No Spoilers**)

[skarlorn]

Maskedmelon, Jamie is a Paladin in the most Absolute sense. However, his god is not the Seven or the Lord of Light. His god is his love for Cersei. He has lived his life in absolute devotion to her, sacrificing material pleasures, wealth, and countless beautiful pussies. This is exemplified by Jamie forsaking his claim on Castely Rock and the fact that he has only ever had sex with Cersei. In fact, the only time Jamie came close to loving another woman was with Breanne of Tarth (sp?), who is also a Paladin in the most Absolute sense.

It's not a rational choice on his end, but rather a spiritual calling and personal devotion.

seems like the calling of a malevolent spirit, or maybe retribution for his family's transgressions?

Indeed, all the Lannisters coming from Tywin are cursed. I wonder what sort of atrocities the Lannisters did before SOIAF started...

You know, I was thinking more about this and true love never is a rational choice, I get that, we don't have control of it, but it doesn't just happen either. At the most basic level, it is rooted in desire and sprouts with need. I just don't get how it started for Jaime with her :/

Some answers can't be found in yourself because you don't want or have the need to open the door to find out, so to speak.

I am with you Mask
