AonEne Posted December 2, 2018 Report Share Posted December 2, 2018 When you read the name Shen in the book Eon and wonder why they didn't call him Rlain. Still undercover? When you see this Pokemon card and buy it just for the inside joke. I was laughing my head off - absolutely worth the fifty cents. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reckless Reader Posted December 4, 2018 Report Share Posted December 4, 2018 (edited) When you see the article about the HoA leatherbound on Brandon's website and immediately look on Amazon to see if there are any for other books. I found one, but it was $50 (Fifty Dollars) and my practical side had a brief but bloody wrestling match with my artistic side that went something like this: Me: IT'S RUSTING GORGEOUS Me @ myself: IT'S FIFTY DOLLARS Me: BUT IT'S SOOOO PRETTY Me @ myself: but it's what's inside that counts, right? Me @ myself: ...Right? Me @ myself: ... Me @ myself: oh wow that's beautiful I decided I couldn't get it because a ) i don't have the money and b ) I don't have an Amazon account anyway so it never mattered in the first place. Edit: @Ookla the boombox (Spent a while trying to insert a quote in an edit but the site doesn't seem to be able to do it) The stars don't show up on any camera I have; I can't get the exposure time long enough... sorry... Last thing: My school book club did a discussion of Elantris!!!!! Here were the notes: (Caution: contains spoilers) Spoiler Discuss Elantris Ms. D’s favorite quote “...there cannot be tyranny where there is love.” page 548 Some love Hrathen, some hate him, but none of us could stop reading! We want Seons He’s really good at conveying complex ideas, he can be clear and powerful at the same time World building is stealthily understandable Compared to other books this one has the best characters He makes it easy to love or hate them Everything he mentions in the book has a purpose A pronunciation key for all the names wouldn’t hurt! Ending seemed rushed, could have been more intentional How exactly did Raoden snap into being sentient? Determination, reptilian urge? The world building was accessible and made the magic work, it made sense Galladon and Raoden’s friendship was admirable Edited December 6, 2018 by Ookla the Fused 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Doomstick Posted December 6, 2018 Report Share Posted December 6, 2018 (edited) Sonic pronunciation: 1: identify the Aon (sarENE) 2: pronounce Aon as long vowels with stressing first syllable of Aon (sar-EE-nee) 3: pronounce other syllable(s) normally (Sahr-EE-nee) 4: don’t pronounce it like chaos does (never “Suh-RAY-nay”) Spoiler Investiture wants to be sentient? he had a moment of lucidity and saw a way out of the pain?

Zath, if you don't have pictures either here or in the RWBY chat soon, you'll have a mob of angry Sharders coming after you. Show us your surely adorable rapper puppy. When you're doing a lab on metals in chemistry, and you keep telling yourself don't swallow any, don't do it Ene... When in another chem class a couple of metallurgical engineering people tell you stuff the whole period, and you're blissfully answering answering questions about steel alloys and recommending Mistborn to the guy. They also gave us each a free wire that straightens itself out when you heat it up. I'd burn it, but like I just said, I've been telling myself not to eat metal lately... When you see the name 'Stephen L. Franzoi' on your psychology textbook and frown, because you thought Ivy was the psychologist, not some Franzoi aspect. Huh. When your Spanish project is writing the typical day of a famous or fictional person, and you start wondering if Hoid does anything different on weekends. (This project just doesn't get it. I haven't been taught the words for 'Spiritual DNA' yet...) When the documentary in world civ mentions Leonardo da Vinci needing to join a guild, and you think "The GBs are cool! Or the DA!" When it's cold outside and you would do ANYTHING for a brassmind. When in a book called Warcross, they have things called Memories that they capitalize. Lightweavers, I'm telling you. When you mistake the word Venus for Vedens. When you think of Sanderson Elimination while conjugating se verbs. (Not well. I'll be so glad when I don't have to take Spanish anymore.) When you use Alethi skin as a measurement of skin color. "Hmm, this person could be Alethi..." When 'kalachakra' just sounds like 'Kaladin' every time you hear it. When you discover that Tibet has God Kings who reincarnate, and you have a short panic attack about Endowment on Earth thinking about it. When your teacher asks her students for baby name ideas, and you throw out Vin and Navani.
