Ah, ASOIAF. ONe day I will actually finish reading the books. I did like the Jon-Robb dynamic, or what I saw of it in Game of Thrones. Brothers.

Sometimes I, too, can ship incest ;).

The fourth book kinda drags out, but I liked the fifth better.

Oooh, agreed. Because I ship them like burning, but there's no way you can maintain their storylines if you have them stay together. Neither of them can really grow if they stay together, especially Jon, who needs steps out of Robb's shadow and out of Winterfell. I've seen a number of fics where Jon stays with Robb and it doesn't derail his arc and development and everyone is completely happy and it just doesn't ring true /o\

Yeah, if Jon stayed with Robb, he'd always be his bastard brother, nothing more. He'd never grow to be a leader, and Jon is a WAY better leader than Robb. Would be a way better king. Ironically, I could see them staying together and growing in an AU in which Jon is trueborn, and Robb baseborn.

This. Jon is much more suited for the role. Robb tries, but I think he's mostly trying to live up to other's expectations, while Jon is trying to live up to his own.

I've actually read that fic once, and it was amazing.

Ooooh, there's a fic? I remember discussing this idea as an AU scenario with a friend, but I didn't know someone actually wrote it :). Not that I read that much GoT ff XD.
