re: Game of Thrones S4:E4 "Oathkeeper" A Meltdown for Book Maesters (SPOILERS)

I'm thinking Bronn will go off with Jaime to the Riverlands in S5.

I'm not sure how I'd feel about that. I always thought that the characters of Bronn and Jorah provided an interesting juxtaposition. They are so similar in appearance (at least on the show), skill set, etc. and they seem to be on opposite trajectories.

Bronn rises from pretty much nothing to be Tyrion's right hand man for a long time, gets rewards for part in the battle of Blackwater and in the books ends up with land and position due to his marriage to Lloys. Jorah on the other hand starts off as a Mormont, the son of a recoginzed house but tumbles due first to engaging in the slave trade to earn money to impress his wife. Then he kind of levels off as a major advisor to Danny and then his infatuation with her sends him back downward again.

Of course I guess Bronn could get land, etc. as a reward for helping Jamie with swordplay lessons and if he does something impressive in the Riverlands (if that's the way they go). So, yeah, I guess under certain circumstances that could work.
