Jorah Mormont's wedding portrait with his second wife, Lady Lynesse Hightower
---
"To celebrate his victory (-over the Greyjoys), Robert ordained that a tourney should be held outside Lannisport. It was there I saw Lynesse, a maid half my age.
The first time I beheld her, I thought she was a goddess come to earth, the Maid herself made flesh. Her birth was far above my own. She was the youngest daughter of Lord Leyton Hightower of Oldtown.
I crowned Lynesse queen of love and beauty, and that very night went to her father and asked for her hand. I was drunk, as much on glory as on wine. By rights I should have gotten a contemptuous refusal, but Lord Leyton accepted my offer. We were married there in Lannisport, and for a fortnight I was the happiest man in the wide world."
-Jorah, ACOK

Ser Jorah Mormont, The Exile Knight, Jorah the Andal “My...Queen. My sword that was his is yours, Daenerys. My heart as well, that never belonged to your brother.” The bag of daddy issues and entitlement that is Jorah Mormont. That sword snapped off several times during painting, to the point that I honestly thought I’d lost it. In typical fashion, I found the blade in the bottom of a shotglass.

Jorah Mormont x fiancée!OC (Oneshot)
A/N: Guys, it´s time for my next story. This time it´s a Jorah one again. Next time we will see... Enjoy this please and have a nice day/night/evening.
The Story plays in Season 5! Out of normal Storyline!
Warnings: fluff, mentions of death, mentions of rise from the death
Words: 307
It was dark outside. The light of the candles gave little shadows on the floor.
She turned around in Bed. Once again, she couldn´t sleep. Once again, she saw her. Once again, she had a nightmare.
Her finacé turned around and sighed.
"Bad dreams?"
He whispered. She nodded. He stroke her with his left hand over her hair and lightly kissed her.
"Tell me."
"I can´t. You have to sleep."
"I have told you a long time before: I wanna know what happens in your head. So go on."
He pulled her onto his lap. His warm breath stroke over her hair. She could feel his beard scratch against her cheek. She heard his heartbeat. She began to tell the story.
"I was at the battlefield once again. I saw her. A knife through her stomach, and her sword dropped down as she saw me lying there on the ground. Her face was completely pale and her brown eyes were blue. She turned into a white walker. She tried to grab me, but I ran away. She followed me. She stapped a knife into my heart as she was straight behind me. Then I woke up."
In the end, she started to cry. He whipped her tears away and stroke his thumb over her cheek. He smiled a little at his next words.
"You are the most beautiful girl in this damm world. You were trained as a mercenary, and you know how to protect yourself. You will never lose like that. I will protect you till the end. I will be with you till the end. I will always love you."
She cried once again. His words were perfect. She fell in love with him years ago. Now they´re about to marry. Now they will make their memories. Now they will end up together.

It feels weird how Maege, Dacey, etc; Jeor; and Jorah are all related. It's just they have such different vibes.

As a female athlete myself, I just want to quickly appreciate how George R.R Martin writes his women who fight. It’s never, “she wanted to be a warrior so she worked harder than everyone and eventually she could beat all the boys.” He actually gives his characters strengths and weaknesses—as well as cultural ties to fighting— and he makes these traits enhance the already existing plot lines these characters follow. The mental game is also always just as important, if not more, than the physical game, which I’ve found is true in sports and probably much more true in actual life-threatening situations.
Arya is a small child. She’s nine, she’s skinny; she would probably never excel at being a knight, so instead she learns a different type of fighting. She’ll never overpower anyone, but she can be quick and sneaky and use her left hand which most people don’t know how to fight against. Also, I would argue that Syrio’s teachings about “looking with your eyes” were far more important to her than the physical part of water dancing. Most of the time she isn’t using her skills to directly fight people, but to run away, to spy on people, to catch food and survive. Syrio is her friend, Needle is Jon Snow’s smile, etc. Arya learning how to use her stature to her advantage is part of a greater connection to her identity and the people who helped her.
Brienne is stronger than most men, but she faces constant misogyny because of that (which is all too realistic). She constantly faces internal battles with her own self-image and harassment wherever she goes. She gets taught to use men’s pride and anger to her advantage:
“Old Ser Goodwin was long in his grave, yet she could hear him whispering in her ear. Men will always underestimate you, he said, and their pride will make them want to vanquish you quickly, lest it be said that a woman tried them sorely. Let them spend their strength in furious attacks, whilst you conserve your own. Wait and watch, girl, wait and watch (AFFC Brienne 7)”
Finally, “no chance, and no choice” is her most memorable line for a reason. It’s not her martial prowess that makes her a great character; it’s her bravery and honor.
Cultural ties are also so important to the reasons many women in the series fight. Asha is Balon’s last remaining child when all her brothers are dead and gone. Of course she knows how to fight and sail. Her tension with Theon is less about her showing off and more about her proving how much she actually knows her people while he doesn’t (of course that isn’t Theon’s fault but that’s a whole other post). The Mormont women learned to fight because they historically had to fight off invaders; the Sand snakes’ skills show their connection to Oberyn, etc.
Anyway I just love how George uses fighting to enhance his characters’ personalities and not define them. None of them are physically or mentally infallible, and none are exempt from misogyny. They just learned to do something that empowers and protects them despite society’s expectations. George’s writing of women is definitely not perfect, but this is something I really appreciate.
