"I hear Lannisters have shit for honor."

"And gold for shit." Tyrion's bulging brow furrowed. "No, wait, that was only my lord father, and as it happened, he only shat shit. Bugger."

Hee! Tyrion would win an Emmy and a Golden Globe in your fic too. :D

"Still." Tyrion set his empty bowl on the ground and sucked the juices off each of his stunted fingers in turn. "It's quite an elegant little plan. A delicate and intricately woven web. As one would expect of the Spider. And to think, Ser Jorah," he said, sliding off the front of the log to lean back against it on his elbows, "you are the man who unraveled it."

Jorah stared hard at the darkening logs amid the glowing embers of the fire. "Or the fly who got caught in it."

Straight from the books! It's fun to watch Tyrion and Jorah interact (you know, with Jorah speaking and not just a sullen mess), because they're very different with different skill sets, and yet, they could be quite a fearsome duo with a common goal.

And Jorah, while having been a part of a master scheme to ensnare Dany, does strike me as a character that goes from one web to another, constantly getting stuck. He's not a man who makes webs.

Best comment ever! I'll treat it like my Emmy or Golden Globe.

Jorah's an interesting mix of being really clever and resourceful on his own, but there are still those he can't quite keep up with there. He just wants home and sex, and the people who want power and influence unfortunately have manipulated that. He does just find himself drifting from one bad situation to another. That said, with Tyrion's brains, I think Dany actually has a shot at the Iron throne with those two counciling her. We shall see!

Jorah and I could get along marvelously. ;)

I think she certainly would!
