Warlocks after one assassination attempt.
"Well, we tried." -
“Beware of an old man in a profession where men usually die young"
-
The Hound was 50 feet away, had 5 kingsguard soldiers between him and Selmy and still had his hand on his hilt when Selmy raised his voice...thats how bad ass this guy is.
-
I could never accept his death. Such a braveheart and warrior character.
-
You know Selmy is the most badass because he's the only one who doesn't fall in love with Dany.
-
Ser Baristan is like an Old Jedi Master!
-
Daenerys and the characters around her, had a incredible amount of potential and value in the storyline. Just her name and what she and her past stands for, already had so much value and affection. She was like the first person you would root for. She was the only different one in the whole story with the most unique character traits and a fabulous personality. I feel like they wasted 8 years of good writing on a TRASH ending >:(.

0:43 Emelia Clarke has the most beautiful smile of anyone I’ve ever seen
-
In ser Jorah's head: "Shit! More competition!"
-
The greatest fighter in the 7 kingdoms and so far we've only seen him killing a scorpion!
-
A true Star Wars moment.
A desert world. The sci-fi critter. The ubiquitous Jedi robe. The requisite English accents. -
The reason I love Ser Barristan so much is he’s one of the only ones in the entire series who never breaks his oath; he defended a mad man, a bad king and a tyrant all out of oath, and when he was ‘released from that oath he found a new way to honour it in Daenerys. Only death would break his bond and I love it, apart form his death of course

Can we all just take a moment to admire Ser Barristan? Not only is he a great fighter but a good guy too. Once, Dany jokingly tells him her butt was numb from sitting so long during an audience and the next time she holds audience he's piled her bench with cushions for her. Really, AWWW! 'Ser Grandfather' is such an underrated character in a world full of such cruel people.

Ser Baristan Selmy: Quits like a boss, introduces like a boss.
-
"Barristan Selmy...Now that's a name I haven't heard in a long time"
-
I like Jorah's look when he understands it's barristan Selmy. If he has come on the orders of Robert, he knows there will be nothing he can do to defend Daenerys.
-
Fun fact: Oberyn coated his spear with venom from this bug on his fight against the Mountain.
-
Barristan: "I think we better get indoors. The Warlocks of Qarth are easily startled but they'll soon be back, and in greater numbers."
-
I also think Selmy could just straight up tell Daenerys... "I've been keeping an eye on your for a while to make sure you weren't crazy like your father was at the end."
-
Aah, back when every episode would offer you nothing less than goosebumps.
