Oh My Gosh I Love This Random Cobbler So Much And I’ve Known Him For- Maybe Five Minutes. I Love Him

It aches my heart to see people get injured… it’s almost more painful to me than seeing people die in books. She’s paralyzed. It’s… I- it’s so heartbreaking to witness. I feel so much desire to help Rysn, but she’s not even real. Aaghck. Empathy suuucccckkkssss sometimes.

SPOOK!!!!!!

“The Lord Mistborn” makes me think Elend… but no, he and Vin didn’t have any kids, neither did Kelsier. Mmmmm…. I have no idea what the hell this could be in reference to.

Hmmm… the Fourth Ideal, something Kaladin cannot say… if we look at the themes of his story so far, it’s probably something like “I will protect only those I can”. Kaladin has always struggled with accepting that he can’t save EVERYONE, because he is just… too compassionate, but it’s gotten to the point where it’s crippling his ability to act, to save anyone. I expect Rhythm of War is gonna have a lot of Kaladin brooding

Pattern’s frustration with language being arbitrary and stupid is so real

“Why don’t you use my bridges?” Says Sadius. “Why don’t you strand yourself on a plateau with my men serving as the only means of escape?” Says Sadius. “Why don’t you hand me the knife while removing the armor from your back?” Says Sadius

This upcoming betrayal weighs on me. But it does highlight something interesting. Brandon Sanderson does an excellent job of introducing concepts, then having them pay off in the other narratives. (See: Shallan’s “lesson” on human morality followed immediately by the Kaladin flashback where he realizes bravery does not always mean fighting) This chunk of narrative - the betrayal of Dalinar - brings to mind the words of Kaladin earlier in the book when someone mentions how a betrayer amongst the Bridgemen could utterly ruin them all. He says they simply cannot worry about it, for if they did, nothing would get done… and he’s right. Dalinar’s trust is his downfall, but it causes change. Dalinar, in making the choice to trust Sadius, has allowed the world and the war to shift in a way that would not be possible otherwise.

It’s a bit fascinating

Wayne does things that would send Shallan into doom spirals. He method acts for fun and Shallan would have crumpled like a house of cards beneath his rambles about accents and personality and “stealing voices”.

He no-diffs Shallan, not because he can manipulate time, but rather because she simply couldn’t keep up with his Spastic Man Swag™️

So you know how Jesus was supposed to be like… 100% totally just human, right? And like, humans got free-will n’ stuff.

So now I’m just imagining Jesus getting into accidents and dying, then God going “Well shit.” And rewinding time so his kid can try again because he fucked up and didn’t die in the right way.

*horrified surgeon noises*

*horny guy voice* someone pls cut me open and dig around in my guts

You know when a bastard shows up in a Brandon Sanderson book he’s about to be the single coolest man in the entire series. There’s something about the concept of a man torn between two worlds that inspires Sanderson to absolutely cook.

Yes Dalinar. YES. Beat the shit out of your nephew!!!! Yes yes yes and then tell him you’re fucking his mom!!!! I love him so much you guys.
