Jaime Lannister/Sansa Stark, also known as Jaimsa, is the het pairing of Jaime Lannister and Sansa Stark in the A Song of Ice and Fire and Game of Thrones fandoms.
They’re both broken, they both have a tendency to pretend or put on roles/faces and lose themselves, but she’s compassionate and he’s fiercely devoted…which might be what the other needs. They have a capacity to love—not all that common in the seriesjustadram
Canon
Sansa and Jaime meet when Jaime visits Winterfell with King Robert, and again when Jaime returns to King's Landing after being a prisoner of Sansa's brother Robb. Jaime and Sansa have very little canon interaction. Although, Jaime does promise Sansa's mother, Catelyn Stark, that he will protect Sansa and see her safely returned to her mother.
