Brienne and Jaime

Jaime   ~The night reeks of piss and ale. My eye is swollen and I truly know that this is my last night. The Karstarks want revenge for me killing that poor guard. So I strangled him with a chain. He died a good death more than I can hope for on this evening. My eye is swollen shut and my wrists are aching, but i hear my cage door and see Catelyn Stark walk in with the ugliest man or she beast I have ever seen. Catelyn and I exchange our normal pleasantries. She seems to be wanting to put me in the custody of this hulking knight. A chance for freedom, if I must kill this Brienne  I will, we sneak away into the night, me in chains following behind this maid of tarth, she should have gagged me~

Brienne    -I have yet to smell anything or anyone so fowl in all my days, his personality so far, matches his scent. As I help him onto his garran, he continues his endless insults coupled with sexual undertones, I should have gagged him. After what seemed like hours, we stop to camp. As I am lifting him from his horse, is soaked in urine, I expected nothing less from this worthless man. I quickly tie him to the nearest soldier pine. Since we are hiding from Robb Starks guards as well as the various sell swords that may find us, we go without a fire, and feast on dried meat and cheese. The King Slayer, will not stop running his mouth, he continuously asks me if my name is Brian and not Brienne and if my maidenhead is still intact, he is crude and cruel, as if I should expect anything less from a murderer. I shall be relieved when we arrive in King’s Landing. If I had not made a vow to Lady Catelyn, I would have killed him already.-

Jaime   ~Seven hells this woman is stronger than ten men and just as ugly. We have been riding for hours and dawn is quickly approaching. She lifts me off the horse and I whisper in her ear~ ”If you wanted to wrap your arms around me all you had to was ask” ~She says not a word but roughly tosses me to the ground getting a rope from the saddle bag~ ”See now were talking, I would have never taken someone of your stature to be into that sort of thing ’ ~i give her a wink and she kicks at me tying me a to a tree. We go without a fire, and I am glad at not having to see her ugly face but fire side, I am sure it would be just as hideous. The only light is the moon and the stars, I start to miss Cersei and wonder where she is. My body aches with pain, but it keeps my mind sharp, I stare at the maid and make of her name.~ ”Good Knight Brian have you not had sex with a maid yet, no surely not you are too brutish, surely you would have to pay the whores double to be with you” ~ She stares at me angrily and I know she wants nothing more to see my dead~ ”What is your tongue cut out, that would only add to your appeal, its not like you would ever have use for it, my brother Tyrion said a tongue is only good for one thing on a woman, but I am not sure you are one”

Brienne   ~I wake to his voice ringing in my ears, like a dying crow. He asks me to help him remove his britches, so that he might relieve himself, this was not part the agreement. I will have his tongue, before he reaches his dear sister.~ ”Slayer, I am no servant, you are not on a holiday, I was not called upon, to keep you in good comfort. If it please you, you may continue to berate me. With each jape, I’ll feed you less and tighten your bindings. So please do what you must.” ~leaning against an ancient soldier pine I began dreaming. What I would give to be back by my King’s side, Since the day I was born, my life has been on a curious path, why? Do the Gods enjoy these games? My reward for honesty and loyalty , the chance to travel across the seven kingdoms with a loathed murderer. Gods forgive me, -elbows Jaime in the face, knocking him unconscious- ah, now I can listen to the birds.
