You Know You're a Sanderfan When...

[KnightRadiant she/her]

When you channel your "inner Lift" as you skid across your hardwood flooring (on the way to the kitchen) in your socks.

[Sunbird she/her]

When you start thinking about the blood disorder hemophilia but your brain insists on calling it hemalurgy.

When you see a book by Jane Yolen in your local library and can't stop laughing about it, because all you can think about is the planet.

Its funny because she has books about dragons

When you're reading something (like Powder Mages Trilogy - I recommend) and looking for behind the scenes stuff. Then you go online and realize that there's nothing...

Cosmere broke me so hard :<

I'm totally ruined for mediocre books because I expect inconsistencies to be deep and meaningful but they're not.

When you reach the end of the first Lightbringer book and your only thought is

Spoiler

Hemalurgic spike!!!

 

[Koldun he/him]

When instead of jumping around using your powers, if you ever get allomancy, you want to burn a part and then force it back up and see what burning does to metals.

[Curious Anamaximder he/him]

When my phone recorrects badass to badchull.

 You also are a Sanderfan when you know this is not quite a Ketek lacking five separate distinctive parts.

whoops, my bad

[Brightness Enna she/her]

When you're reading a middle-grade novel and realize a couple things... in the prequel (that was written as #5 of the series, I was reading #2), they describe the older sister as expected to have talent for magic while the younger sister, who is the story's focus, actually has the talent. In #2, it says that the second sister was older and they always knew who had the talent and who didn't.

...? My first thought was "Brandon would never make that mistake, unless it wasn't a mistake. *short intake of breath* "

Then I started to brainstorm ways that memories could have been changed between the prequel and the current book.

[A Secret Corner he/him]

You know your a sanderfan when you're doing a read of The Magician's Nephew (chronicles of Narnia) and you read about the forest... well um *spoilers* ... and your only thought is SHARDPOOLS!

Literally.... *spoilers*

Spoiler

In the living forest they use those pools to travel inbetween worlds... so they are at least perpendicularities or something...

 

[A Secret Corner he/him]

When you read The Magician's Nephew (Chronicles of Narnia) and you read about... well... *spoilers* ... and you think wait WHAT! SHARDPOOLS?

Well.. *spoilers*

Spoiler

referring to the pools in the living forest. If you've read the book you'll know what I'm talking about. They use them to travel inbetween worlds, and they never got a good explanation on what precisely these were...

When you watch the legend of Korra for the first time and you have to keep telling yourself it's not Mistborn Era 2

[A Budgie she/her]

When you have a nice conversation with your mother (who is a sewer and has read Mistborn) about making a Mistcloak.
On the subject of Mistcloaks, what should I be using fabric-wise?

[AerionBFII he/him]

I swallowed a great quantity of Metal Flakes recently. I knew it was a bad idea but i had to be sure.

Don't worry, that just means you're an Atium misting. 

[Farnsworth]

When your screensaver, Chrome background, and desktop are all maps of different Shardworlds.

[scyron he/him]

You know you are a Sanderfan when you see this wonderful article about astronauts needing to go to the bathroom while in their spacesuits and all you can think is that Adolin seriously needs to get himself one of those nifty things.

When you see this Tweet and immediately think of Lightsong playing Tarachin.

[A Budgie she/her]

I just recomended Legion to my physcology teacher.

[Darkness Ascendant he/him]

 cept metal flakes, Mistborn's favourite breakfast. Come's with a special aluminium toy each pack.

[Ironeyes]

When your first thought is, "Hey, that's the Elsecallers' glyph!"

[Sunbird she/her]

You know you're a Sanderfan when you've cumulatively spent less than an hour on the Shard today and already used up all your upvotes.

Also when your smartphone suggests "you know you're a Sanderfan when" with no prompting whatsoever. XD
