1. He didn't annoy me at all in tGS (except for about three paragraphs). He had a lot of regret, and he made some good decisions finally. I think I was so relieved by this that I couldn't be annoyed. I wasn't bothered by any of his chapters. The only time I was annoyed at all was his big rant on Rand, but he's been ranting about Rand for so long that I'm mostly numb to it.
2. We know from BS's blog that there'll be some Youngling stuff in ToM. My guess is that Gawyn will lead the Younglings again. I think Egwene will bond him, then he'll tell her that he needs to see Elayne, so he'll leave for Caemlyn (Younglings in tow). But he won't tell her that he's also hunting Rand.
The only other reason I can think for the Younglings to stay together and not just dissolve into the Tower Guard is as some sort of honor guard for Egwene.

You summed it up perfectly! Why is Gawine so confused? He main purpose in life is supposed to be to protect the daughter-heir. Why doesn't he get on with it??

I agree, but I think he'll find out just in the nick of time or maybe even during a duel/ambush. *NM*

I liked Gawyn. He's finally something more than a waste of page space.

I'll be honest - I continue to think he is a moron. I'm glad Gareth Bryne called him out on it.

I always felt he was just the convenient love interest to Egwene.

Egwene liked him because he is easy to manipulate.
