bored in class have a very hastily sketched Shallan (she has big hair in my mind so sue me)

[oversandalyzer]

My dumbass brain visualizing The Stormfather whenever he talks to Dalinar in Oathbringer

Did not expect Sanderson go: yeah humans pack bond all sorts of creatures. That will help them. But what if there was a species even more prone to packbonding? And that solved everything.

the introduction of taravangian is so so so good.

i’m reading the scene where shallan draws him and just. god. would never have guessed where his arc winds up going.

The argument that Moash was the only one in Bridge Four that didn't see Kaladin as some kind of deity or hero really falls apart once you get to the Bridge Four POV chapters in Oathbringer. They're like "yeah, Kaladin is great, but sometimes he can be an idiot, you know" and things of the sort.

Meanwhile, in Oathbringer and Rhythm of War Moash's POVs actually show that he paints Kaladin as this perfect man and soldier.

Kaladin is 20 years old. He is supposed to be at the club.

They're pure sunshine and love, pls, I love how Adolin always try to make her smile and how she teases him with silly jokes. Their dorky and adorables conversations in WoR and RoW give me life UwU

Sanderson is so evil for making alespren look like cartoon drunk bubbles which is fucking great for fanart because that means those things could exist diagetically instead of just as a stylization thing. And then going oh they’re very rare they only show up in Iri like THANKS. Dalinar does not live there

Some of my favorite scenes in the Stormlight archive are between Zahel and Kaladin. The juxtapositioning of the young tortured soldier and the old tortured soldier is so delicious.

Zahel, having followed Kaladin's path, having made the sacrifices he thought would save, and still feeling broken about it either from finding it wasn't enough or wasn't worth it and trying (poorly) to tell that to a very obtuse Kaladin is great but the fact that the only time they really communicate effectively with each other is while they are sparing is all the icing on the cake.

If they had gender reveals on roshar, instead of cutting into a cake to see if it's blue or pink, they would serve the cake to everyone. And sometimes the cake would be sweet, and sometimes the cake would be like that prank batch of sugar cookies my friend and I made in middle school (very, very spicy)

Still haven't finished sunlit man. But like. The auxiliary nomad bond. Oh my God. Oh God cried while driving and had to pull over.

Because at first? Dead spren? Broken oath. It's tragic, but there's a lot of precedent. Heralds be breaking oaths literally chapter 1 (one) of stormlight. Worlds best blorbo and honor's special boy came within a hair's breath of killing syl. If there wasn't a good reason, then I'm sure there was at least an understandable one. Weird how alive he is, but not that weird, considering Maya's progress and the recent Invention Of Therapy.

But storms, it. It wasn't that. It was an accident, outside of his control. He didn't...it wasn't the breaking oaths. He'd. He'd still rather die than kill the last piece of him. The knight/squire thing is a joke, was always a joke. predating death. There's not even a hint of bitterness, a touch of guilt tripping. Aux doesn't blame him. Aux is glad to be there with him, looking at the stars.

They still love each other so, so much.

Nothing was broken.

Okay I've finished now and:
