Ghanderflaffle she/her Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 @Inklingspren need another timezone? I'm in central and normally on after school, we can go back and forth on the longest thread.
Reckless Reader Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 When someone says the name "Devina" and I swear I thought he said "Vivenna" and looked around for our favorite hair-changing royal. Well, maybe second favorite. Though she did have some great development. Also, one of my friends is reading through all my Cosmere books at an insane pace (I have to give him two books at a time every couple days) (It's really great) 3

Yeah He said I'd better be ready for him to talk about it incessantly and the obvious response was that not even incessant discussion was enough to do the Cosmere justice 2

"There's always another rabbit hole to go down"- Wyndlerunner 2019. That quote came from a conversation a friend and I had about how weird Sand Mastery is. What book is your friend reading at the moment?
Rebecca she/her Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 (edited) When you accidentally say “aviars” instead of “aviators”. When you read “Spock” as “Spook”. When you have to (yes, I’m being forced to) get a petticure, and you think of getting some sort of Cosmere symbols painted on. If you guys have any cool ideas, let me know.

Stormblessed Dolphin he/him Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 (edited) Allomantic metal symbols? @Rebecca Edited January 30, 2019 by Stormblessed Dolphin 1
A Secret Corner he/him Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 @whattheHoid, @Rebecca, @Sunbird Storms, don't any of you remember? We already have, "For Preservation's Sake!!!"
Ashspren Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 You know you're a Sanderfan when you haven't checked this page in four weeks, and there's 11 new pages.
whattheHoid she/her Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 @Rebecca get a symbol.of the Cosmere, what about Threnody and Sixth of the Dusk? Any Rosharan glyphs, like on the Rosharan System map? Those would be simple enough that the details wouldn't get muddled in a small area. Any of the Allomantic symbols. Aons! I don't think you have enough toes for all that, but storms it would look cool! Bridge Four! Kholin Blue colors! So many ideas!!!!!!! 1

I gave him Elantris, then TFE, and he was really confused at first because he thought they were the same series 1

AonEne he/him Posted January 31, 2019 Posted January 31, 2019 (edited) When you hear that 16 is important in food measuring and in nature, and grin to yourself. When you read “the land of mist and snow” and automatically think Well, it’s not snowy so much as hot, so you’re half right. When you read the words cultivation and endowment in the same sentence and have to forcibly tell yourself that the book isn’t referring to what you think it is. When you’re hearing about knights in World History, and...it’s so hard not to make references. I mutter them under my breath, I mention the similarities to my teacher (who’s a Sanderfan and gets it), I mull it over in my mind. The Knights Templar, you say? With vows they have to say, and different orders? HMMM. When you’re reading a book with a group called the Legion and a character named Calamity, and it’s about superheroes, and every time… When again, in World History, you talk about guilds, and the whole time you’re thinking, so, assassins, bakers, scientists, et cetera, yes? When you misread biochemical as BioChromatic. When you misread allotment as Allomancer. When in that same World History class (it’s a gold mine, I tell you - disregard my pun), the teacher happens to say something about some guy who was so rich my coated a steak in real gold and ate it, and you decide he must be an Augur. When you read a book (Red Queen) with a main character named Mare. Good thing they don’t say her name too often. Wouldn’t want to be emotionally dead TOO often. When you learn that a student in your chemistry class is named Sami, and your brain goes “But Sami is a girl. And not American. Something’s wrong here…” When you mistype shared as Sharded, completely from autopilot. (And just then, I typoed it as Shard and just quietly smiled.) When in The Famous World History Class, excommunication comes up, and it’s all you can do not to scream Dalinar’s name. You can guess at what I’m going to say by now, I’m sure; it’s with convents and the Conventical of Seran. Edited January 31, 2019 by AonEne italics 15

Hide contents Oh my gosh, don't even get me started about doodles. A shame I threw away my old science notes. I always get the best sketches. I drew Vin as an evolving pokemon once. Quotes, spikes, familiar fantasy faces, things scrawled in Dwarvish... It's a mess. And my planner... holy Kelsenity. No. Just... no. 1

Vogelsang he/him Posted January 31, 2019 Posted January 31, 2019 When you have the perfect gift for any occasion: A Sanderson book! 4
whattheHoid she/her Posted January 31, 2019 Posted January 31, 2019 When you spend a good chunk of time using post it tabs marking off all of the illustrations in all of your Sanderson books and than get distracted and start rereading parts. 5

Rebecca she/her Posted February 1, 2019 Posted February 1, 2019 So update on the petticure. I was going to get all the era one allomantic metal symbols (minus Atium and 11th metal), but they couldn’t even do a simple heart on my friend’s toes. So it didn’t work out. I did, however get a Kholin blue. And, the lady who did my nails reads Sanderson too! So I talked to her about his books the whole time, and told her she NEEDED to read SA, since she had been putting it off. Anyway, you know you’re a Sanderfan when that happens. 6
