The. The big reveal????
Stormlight Archives Spoilers
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
there’s a website where you put in two musicians/artists and it makes a playlist that slowly transitions from one musician’s style of music to the other’s
it’s really fun
Knowing who Zahel is while watching him spar Kaladin without his powers feels like bullying, actually.
Eeeeeee!!!!! She’s doing the awakened cloak thing to wrap around and strengthen herself!!! Heck yeah heck yeah so COOL!!!!
Oh that’s Vivenna.

Okay Googled her to see what she looked like again and got confirmation on accident lmfao. Hellllllll yes, so she managed to awaken a sword fully? Proud of her! Suuuuper curious what her command was!!! Aaaaa this is so exciting.
We love how Calder dies so Shera gets to say she killed the emperor twice, then he just… gets over it.
im aware this is an insane thing to say but i fucking. love characters that are just cockroaches. and i dont mean like. gross i mean they just do not fucking die. they can survive anything. they will outlive EVERYONE because they just will not die no matter what be it because they have a reason or because they literally cannot stop surviving the odds i love it i love it
Been re-reading the Way of Kings recently and… it’s a truly fascinating series of “almost”s. Shallan almost gets away with her theft. Kaladin almost saves the people be chooses to protect. On a re-read these grow even more obvious. It’s almost like reading the Odyssey with just how damn close they get to their goals over and over again.
Also I think I’m gonna start live-blogging my Stormlight re-read
It’s fantastic how much I hate young Dalinar while loving old Dalinar
Love you El!!!!
A character I did for my good friend @shoccoe, trying out a new style!
Wax just shotgun jumped. 10/10. I fear Brandon Sanderson may have peaked.
“Truth is, I like Adolin. Those two are good for each other. Maybe I can hate that.”
Ohoho~? And why now would you hate that, dear Kaladin? Do you - perhaps - want them to both be lovey-dovey with you too?
I adore the way Stormlight handles war. Everyone believes earnestly that what they do is right. Fervently correct. They would and do die for their beliefs. The Listeners were correct to kill Gavilar, but the Alethi were correct to seek retaliation as well. It captures the experience of conflict better than most media I’ve ever seen.
