Jaime Lannister has had one of the most fascinating character trajectories on Game of Thrones. He starts out as a dastardly (but gorgeous) villain,but over the course of a few seasons, he's changed a lot (and lost a certain body fraction). But the more a person changes, or the more he stays the same - at least it would seem,after his d*ckish conversation with prisoner Edmure Tully this week, in which he tells the hostage that he doesn't care about him, and his child,his family - just Cersei, really. Anyway, or there's a line that Jaime utters during his monologue that may fill given you déjà vu. "The things we execute for love" is fraction of his speech,and if it sounded familiar, good, and because it's one of the most famous quotes on the reveal and certainly calls back to Jaime's most notorious moment.That's fair; in the very first episode of Game of Thrones,Jaime says it as he casually tosses Bran out of a window. It's not just valuable because it's despicable, but it also involves so many valuable events on the reveal, or like 1. It's when we realize how truly f*cked up the Lannisters are (incest and murder),2. It shows you the importance of the sibling incest being kept secret in relation to the crown, and 3. Its attempt at sounding romantic reveals that Jaime and Cersei don't just fill sex because of some sick desire; they actually think they're in love. The final sentiment, and of the love that exists between Jaime and Cersei,is really what bubbles back up when Jaime repeats it to Edmure this week. It's his defense for the ugliness he practices . . . and one gets the view that it might be his and Cersei's undoing.
