His lord father’s young widow had other notions, however. Lady Samantha was the daughter of Lord Donald Tarly of Horn Hill and Lady Jeyne Rowan of Goldengrove, both houses that had taken up arms for the queen during the Dance. Fierce and fiery and beautiful, this strong-willed girl had no intention of giving up her place as the Lady of Oldtown and mistress of the Hightower.

"Sam não sabia quanto tempo passara desde que dormira pela última vez, mas restavam pouco mais de dois centímetros da gorda vela de sebo que acendera quando começara a ler o irregular monte de páginas soltas que encontrara atadas com guita. Estava brutalmente cansado, mas era difícil parar. Mais um livro, dizia a si mesmo, e depois paro. Mais uma folha, só mais uma. Mais uma página, e vou para cima descansar e comer qualquer coisa. Mas havia sempre outra página depois dessa, e outra a seguir, e outro livro à espera por baixo da pilha. Vou só dar uma espiada rápida para ver qual o assunto deste, pensava, e antes de se dar conta já tinha lido metade." - O Festim dos Corvos // Samwell I

Jon & Sam
The Winners of My Best ASOIAF Friendship poll:
From that day forth, neither Rast nor any of the others would hurt Samwell Tarly. When Ser Alliser matched them against him, they would stand their ground and swat aside his slow, clumsy strokes. If the master-at-arms screamed for an attack, they would dance in and tap Sam lightly on breastplate or helm or leg. Ser Alliser raged and threatened and called them all cravens and women and worse, yet Sam remained unhurt. A few nights later, at Jon's urging, he joined them for the evening meal, taking a place on the bench beside Halder. It was another fortnight before he found the nerve to join their talk, but in time he was laughing at Pyp's faces and teasing Grenn with the best of them.
Fat and awkward and frightened he might be, but Samwell Tarly was no fool. One night he visited Jon in his cell. "I don't know what you did," he said, "but I know you did it." He looked away shyly. "I've never had a friend before."

Ok, in a previous ask about corlys and laenor you said "you can't disinherit someone just because you don't like them or don't want to"
I want to know where the Samwell/Randyll Tarly thing falls? Randyll Tarly basically threatened Sam and coerced him into joining the Night's Watch so that Sam would be removing himself from the line of inheritance. So what Randyll did was legal, because technically Sam "chose" to disinherit himself? It does support what you're saying because Randyll wouldn't have resort to threatening Sam into taking the black if he could just pick and choose which son he wanted to be Lord of Horn Hill.
(Sorry if my rambling doesn't make sense, this clarification is more for my own sake, trying to make sure I understood what you said)
Hello, friend. Yes, exactly. Randyll Tarly forced his son to join the Night's Watch because otherwise he couldn't legally pass him over to ensure Dickon gets Horn Hill. Of course that in our modern legal system coercion is illegal and perhaps technically it would be in Westeros, as well, but it would be very hard to prove in a court of law and I doubt anyone would care enough to go to such lengths to defend Sam's rights. I suppose? he could have petitioned his liege lord, Mace Tyrell, or, failing that, King Robert, but would they really have anything to gain by angering Randyll Tarly, a seasoned military commander and useful as an ally, for this random boy? There's also the practical obstacle of the "hunting accident", so Sam has to either comply or stage some kind of escape and live as a runaway.
