Game of Thrones: Will Jaime Forgive Tyrion?

    In Season 5, when Jaime and Bronn were in the hull of a ship talking about Tyrion, Bronn told Jaime: "If you ever see your brother again, give the wee fucker my regards." Jaime replied darkly: "He murdered my father. If I ever see him again I'll cut him in half. Then I'll send him your regards." Ouch! Has Jaime broken ties with his little brother?

I got your back, little bro.

    From season 1, Jaime was Tyrion's only ally in their messed up family. Even when Tyrion was a baby, Jaime protected and defended him from their hateful sister and their cold, calculating father. It was one of the driving wedges between Cersei and Jaime despite their... "close" relationship. Tyrion returned the favor by giving his one-handed brother a warmer welcome than Cersei and Tywin. He even had Bronn help Jaime re-learn sword fighting but with his left hand. No matter how much Jaime knew Cersei would hate him for saving their brother, he helped Tyrion escape. However, Jaime didn't count on Tyrion murdering their father...

This family is way fucked up.

    No matter how much we disagree with our parents there's still that small part in us that loves them. Cersei disagreed with her father on so many things (mostly on who she should marry and how her children were to be raised) but she was still a daddy's girl that emulated him (the wrong parts since he knew when and where to apply ruthlessness; I feel his speeches on power and legacy confused her making her come out twisted). Jaime seemed pretty broken up about his father's murder though I thought he'd be more understanding. I guess when it came between him and Cersei, Jaime finally gave up on defending Tyrion.

Didn't think there was much that could break
Tyrion and Jaime's bond. Guess Patricide does it.

      Tywin was by far the coldest of parents in the 7 Kingdoms and Tyrion bore the brunt of most of his cruelty and resentment. But Tyrion seemed to turn out better than his siblings. He didn't let Tywin's cruelty embitter him with the world. He's actually quite compassionate but everyone has their limits. Finding your ex in your father's bed after she falsely testified against you in court would drive anyone to murder. We understand why Tyrion killed Tywin and we should assume that Jaime understood the circumstances as well; he knew better than anyone how much Tyrion suffered in childhood well into adulthood. But clearly the Lannister brothers have different levels of restraint. 

One Lannister Son the Dwarf and the other a Cripple;
What a pair they make

     Tyrion is coming back to Westeros with Daenerys at the helm of a large navy and army. Jaime and Cersei have been torn asunder following the death of their last child. Daenerys will certainly want justice for her father's death though Tyrion would be his brother's champion even if Jaime won't want it. Jaime may even blame Tyrion for tearing their family a part but will Jaime die next season? I don't think so. I feel like Jaime has a part to play in the final battle yet to come.
