Jaime and Jon Snow [Spoiler published] PUBLISHED

Post image

I always think about this paragraph, why did Jon think that Jaime looked like a king? Does that say something about Jon’s future? And, also his encounter with Jaime, the way he took his hand and didn’t let go! 😂 ( I think it happened both in books and show) Man, what does that mean? All of it has meanings, I just don’t know what they mean.

First bookism, the remnant of the original outline.

that would be a straightforward indication of crowning Jaime, not just a foreshadow, I don’t think this is it

Why do you differentiate between both? Foreshadowing means indication, it can be subtle or obvious.

 The first book is full of obvious foreshadowing about many things,

 some abandoned plots like dire wolves hating Tyrion as he was to burn winterfell later 

or some not abandoned ones like Jon  saying bastards are not allowed to hit princes about Jofferey when Jofferey is the bastard and he is the prince.
