*walks in slowly, "there doesn't seem to be anybody here", starts poking books laying around, sits on a chair with a buttprint that doesn't quite fit, "I guess i'll just hang out until somebody shows up..."

"...Books before friends.

17th Shard before the real world.

Release dates before birthdays.

"...and, uh, I will read that which has not been read

            I will stay silent amongst many words

            I will enjoy without being upvoted, but, you know, if you want to throw an upvote on occasion...I mean I'm not against them

*I guess thats good enough for now maybe I'll stick my head in again later."

Maggie gasps, as if suddenly waking up. "I-I . . . Am I alive? Opal, is this real? I thought we were dead."

Opal rolls her eyes. "Dead people don't talk this much. Oh, and hey. You need to get around to reading Snapshot, you slacker. If you don't, it goes against your oaths."

"But I've been busy lately!" Maggie groans.

"Busy doing what? I thought you said we were dead."

"Oh . . . Shut up."

Not that kind of thing - though that would be kinda fun.  I am going to read through every forum on the shard. And maybe go insane in the process.

Have fun doing that! (I have heard Necromancy induces awkwardness, so if you want to try that you can. .  .)

Mistrunner nervously nods, remembering the horribly cringy posts she used to make. "Exercise caution," she warns.

I will see you on the other side.  Probably.

"Heeeelloooo???" shouts, walking into the dark, dusty room, a nearby spiderweb catching in her hair.

"Anyone in here? Eh, so, here it goes:

Books before friends.

17th Shard before the real world.

Release dates before birthdays

 I will offer cookies to those who have not been spiked initiated

            I will sustain the knowledge of Hemalurgy because it is fun

            I will seek to avoid being avoided in dark alleys."

Looks around.

"So. Um. That's it, I suppose. I'll get going. Bye."

Looks around one more time and leaves, feeling uncertain. 

Has everybody here died or what?!

Speak again the hallowed oaths:

 

Books before friends.

17th Shard before the real world.

Release dates before birthdays.

 

This guild is for those of us who will pledge our allegiance to the cause of... well... being awkward. Our best friends are fictional characters. We stay up late at night, watching the comforting blue glow of our various devices as we look up obscure things on The Coppermind. We read and reread books for traces of Hoid and various awesomeness.

 

The Knights Awkward must rise again.

 

The orders are as follows (spoiler tags for length)

 

 

  Reveal hidden contents

Referencecaller

            I will read all Brandon, even if it is not Cosmere

            I will remember WoB's that have been forgotten

            I will link to all my sources, even if they are obscure

 

Theoryweavers

            I will speculate even if there is nothing to speculate upon

            I will ask the questions which have not been asked

            I will connect that which has not been connected

           

Oregonbreakers

            I will not fail to recognize the Reconerverse in spite of the Cosmere

            I will ask the Question in order to answer it

            I will attempt to kill Nighthound so long as he lives

 

Alleywatcher

            I will offer cookies to those who have not been spiked initiated

            I will sustain the knowledge of Hemalurgy because it is fun

            I will seek to avoid being avoided in dark alleys

 

Forumlurker

            I will read that which has not been read

            I will stay silent amongst many words

            I will enjoy without being upvoted

 

Spambringer

            I will B Ł Â Ç K M A G ï C love charm? marriage problems? REPORTED

 

Quipsmiths (Herald: Hoid)

I will make fun of the unmakefunnable
I shall be frustrating when people hate me for it
I will not reuse jokes on pain of being dunked in a highstorm

 

Shipwards

I will ship the unshippable

 

Theorydancers

 

I will remember WOBs that have been forgotten
I shall refuse to have a social life as long as Realmatic Theory is undiscovered
I shall go to every signing and search out evidence

 

 Convertshapers

I will convert those who are not

I will convince those without to buy two copies

I will loan my extras to anyone without

Rolesmiths

 I will bind others together with fictional narratives

I will battle on, even if my fictional characters fall around me
I shall raise my strength stat to defend those without, even at the cost of my resources

Thanks to Curiosity, Winter Cloud, and BramFinem!

 

I pledge my service!!! I am everything you just described! Jake The Awkward has arose!

Ally crawls in "Ak. Just survive a bout of final projects. Missing ... Too... Much... Reading... Time..." But more... Are coming."

Ally falls dramatically to the floor. 

A few seconds later she sits up and says " okay, it's also a Monday. That explains it better."

I will write nonsense and make it sensible-sense.

I will poke holes in your theory.

I will stay up 'till 1:59 AM to finish Sanderson novels.

 

The Knights Awkward Must Stand Again.

 

Permission to add this to my signature?

This has the last three months of my life written all over it.

Books before social life

Sanderson before the real world

Release dates before birthdays

 

I couldn't resist tweaking it a bit. :ph34r:

Mistrunner wakes up. "SnsdklsgAAAA," she says coherently, realizing how much time has passed.

@Cluny the Scourge, of course you can add it to your signature! The Knights Awkward pass up no opportunities for self-advertising. :P

Welcome, @Tesh Kholin and Cluny. Please enjoy some complimentary bookies.
