Dahak Posted April 15, 2018 Report Share Posted April 15, 2018 A mild amusement I've been involved in elsewhere is taking notable quotes and misattrributing them to other characters for the salke of generating wry grins and the occasional laugh or giggle. So I thought we could do it here with Sanderson characters. Both with quotes from other sanderson characters: "So there I was, standing in my chambers on the day before the world ended, facing my greatest adversary to date. The royal wardrobe coordinator." -- Jasnah Kholin And not. "Why are you smiling?' asked Steris. 'I'm relieved,' Wax said honestly. 'I was worried I'd given myself cadmium poisoning, or I had some mysterious disease. This is just someone trying to kill me." “Reason is intelligence taking exercise. Imagination is intelligence with an erection.” -- Hoid 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weltall Posted April 15, 2018 Report Share Posted April 15, 2018 Oh dear, that Wax 'quote' fits him so perfectly. "The wind does not respect a fool" - The Stormfather And slightly tweaked from the original: " I can't believe it! My very first Oathgate trip! We're gonna have the BEST TIME. How much money do I get to spend on sweets and stuff? Oh, oh! Do bananas count as snacks?" - Lift 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draginon Posted April 15, 2018 Report Share Posted April 15, 2018 @Dahak I love that Jasnah one. Is that supposed to be an Alcatraz joke?

Dahak Posted April 16, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2018 Another response of Lady Jasnah's, when faced with a new and unique situation, was to look through the nearest libraries to see if it had ever happened before. This was, Shallan Davar reflected, a good survival trait. It meant that in times of danger you spent the day sitting very quietly in a building with very thick walls. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
