#nightblood: you should swap his sugar and his salt!

[sunroseofthewood]

I gotta say, Szeth, Nightblood and Lift together is possibly the funniest combo of characters to ever assemble in a cosmere book. I mean, you've got Szeth who's just a really funny character in his own right for reasons I'm not even sure I can put into words, then you mix this trauma murder boy with the sword who has very strong and usually incorrect opinions about the world and they end up playing off each other so fucking strangely. Like Nightblood will make some utterly asinine comment about someone and Szeth will take it utterly seriously.

And then you toss in chaos child Lift and suddenly everything's off the rails. Just three hilarious characters for very different reasons mixing into the weirdest combination, and the best part is that it's canon. They actually met and fought together. This happened for real. God I need it to happen again. I need Lift to lead Szeth around as though he's her chaperone but in reality she's got the reins on this disaster show, and also Nightblood's there making even more terrible suggestions.
