"Taking the Black is a serious business," Mormont said.

"Yes, yes, duty and loyalty unto death," Tyrion said. "The recruitment drive always makes it sound so attractive."

Jaime was glaring at the Lord Commander as if it were Mormont's fault that he -Ser Jaime the Golden, the Kingslayer, Son of Tywin - had fallen so low as to have to take refuge amongst the rapists, murderers, and bastards who made up the Night's Watch.

"You'll get no special treatment here," Mormont warned. "Your past lives mean nothing. No titles matter. None of that 'Hear Me Roar' Lannister bullshit. You'll be one of us, no more, no less."

Jaime glowered, but then gave a curt nod. Tyrion only smiled an overly bright smile.

"We're very much looking forward to it."

Mormont stared at him. "Not for long," he said at last.

The character voices are just right. Tyrion's smirk comes through perfectly, and his first line plays out as vividly in my head as if it were from the show.
