So, I have a soft spot for Ser Jorah

gemfyreSure, he sometimes pushed the boundaries with Daenerys, but I believe it’s only because he truly does love her. He had a pardon in his hands. He could have just let Dany drink the stuff offered by the wineseller. But I can imagine after receiving that pardon he suddenly thinks to himself, “I’m trading the life of the woman I love so I can return to cold, desolate Bear Island.” No, he decides, it’s not worth it. He intervenes and fiercly protects his princess. I also love how at that moment she trusts him implicity and responds in her badass, no-nonsense manner, insisting that the wineseller take a mouthful first.
Then Ser Barristan comes along and tells her about the pardon and she loses all trust in him? I mean, he GAVE UP the pardon to protect you! Give the poor guy a break. He’s a good fighter and one of the few people you can probably truly trust and who you know will protect you with his life, and to him it doesn’t matter if you reciprocate his feelings or not.
