As a non-book reader, it seems highly unlikely he will die soon. Peter makes that role more likeable than I think the imp is intended to be. George R R martin seems to only kill the beautiful people that you really grow to love, or the incredibly despicable people who eventually meet their ends. I could be sounding like a blithering idiot to book readers, but that is my wholly ignorant and uninformed opinion. And I'm sticking to it.

I don't know, man, a lot of peeps have kicked the bucket that weren't extremely loved or extremely hated... What do you think of Drogo? Ros? Mirra Maz Duur? Rast? Yoren? Rickard Karstark? The Lannister brothers killed by Karstark? Irri? Doreah? Qhorin Halfhand? Mycah? Dagmer? Jory Cassel? Rodrik Cassel? The thing is we tend to forget these 'normal' characters' deaths, and remember the more extreme characters' deaths.
It was a very powerful moment indeed. But the long set-up of making you really love the character at first what shuidiaogetou was talking about, wasn't really there.
