[Everything] Who would you rather see as the 1000th Lord Commander...

Would you rather see Jorah Mormont and Jaime Lannister take over the position as the 1000th Lord Commander of the Nights Watch.

Argument for Jorah Mormont: He would take the same position that was held by his late father, Jeor Mormont. He would continue the legacy the of watching the realms of men. Just as Jeor joined the Watch when he realized Jorah should use have his time to lead, Jorah could see the future of his house is in strong, capabale by hand in the young Lyanna Mormont. We also saw him admit his guilt and say that Ned Stark was right in trying to take his head after he sold the poachers into slavery. As we know, joining the Watch would grant him a pardon for those crimes.

Arguments for Jaime: All along the we have heard that the only woman Jaime loves is his Cersei, and now that he has left her this would be a reason to never lay with another woman again. Also, in the only interaction we’ve seen between Jaime and Jon Snow Jaime mocks his choice of joining the Watch. It would also be one last twist of the knife in the late Tywin Lannister who was deadset on relieving his treasured son from his Kings Guard vows so he could take over as his heir. Now that Jaime has left he could join the Nights Watch and fully remove himself from his fathers legacy. He also said he meant to keep his promise in fighting the Night King. That could possibly mean he takes the black even if they win the War for the Dawn.

I think either of these men taking over the position could be a fitting end to their story arcs. What do you think?
