You Know You're a Sanderfan When...

[Truthweaver she/her]

When you hear about a hydro pole being cut down for the copper in its wires, and you think that's a perfectly reasonable action for a desperate allomancer.

[Apollyon he/him]

When your math teacher is reading Mistborn and you accidentally name drop ‘Cosmere’ and he’s clueless...

[TNTman20 he/him]

You know you're a sanderfan when your last few art projects have been cosmere related.

I tried to make an Inquisitor bobblehead. It didn´t work out very well. 

When youŕe doing Greek stuff in ELA and you talk about Scylla, and all you can think is Sycla. 

When youŕe asked to mention a hero from a book and you say Wax. (My teacher then wanted an explanation and I had no clue what to say. I ended up calling him a ´vigilante type person´ or something along those lines.) 

When you realize that Pokemon Ranger must be in the Cosmere, because Prof. Hastings is a Hasting and thereś a tree called Harmony. 

When someone says ¨I don´t think it´s honors¨ and it takes you a minute to figure out that they mean honors the class, and not Honor´s as in possessive form of Honor the Shard. 

When you see the words¨ it´s the destination, not the journey¨ in Library of Souls and get annoyed.

When you are sheets not really sword fighting your sister with foam swords, while jumping on a trampoline, and To patent you are a Windrunner.

I need to do that while wearing my mistcloak.

[AonEne he/him]

I want a mistcloak so badly. Where did you get yours? 

[+Extesian he/him]

When you get a notification at work that the latest Shardcast is Nightblood 2: Electric Boogaloo, and laugh so hard Red Bull comes out your nose.

AFAIK most people sew their own. That's what I did.

When you start comparing games and stories to Cosmere right away. I am currently playing Ni No Kuni 2. 

You have swords that you summon, elemental 'definitely not spren', "Higher spren" that can be bonded with. 

Theres more but i'd be worried about spoiling both it and cosmere stuff.

I know what you mean. I played FFXV after reading TWoK and as far as I was concerned, the weapons were shardblades.

I just cut up a length of gray cloth. That way it looked more... Misty. No sewing was required.

When you're reading a friend's story, and one of the characters said, "I am not sick," and you read it as, "I am not a stick." 

I have a quote by Sanderson that I use all the time. I didn't know who said it, but I just kept using it. (This world, it is a tempest sometimes. But remember, the sun always rises again). Then I realized who said it. Taravangian. 

I've stopped using it as much.

[Apollyon he/him]

@Tesh I literally just read “I am not sick” as “I am not a stick”. 

When you share all the tragic flaws as all of Sanderson’s characters...

That made me crack up. I don't know why that's so funny.

When you can finally say Rock's real name. 

When you go over to your cousin's house to "work" on homework, and you talk writing and Cosmere the whole time. She pointed out an error in the first paragraph that could've Ruined the story.

When whenever you have to write the name of a shard in everyday conversation, you capitalize it.

---

When today, one year ago, was the day you first touched a Sanderson book. It was a MMP copy of tWoK, and I still have it, but it's pages are filled with sticky notes. 

The only reason I know this is because I still have the receipt. The Receipt that Changed My Life. No joke. 

I'm trying to decide whether or not I need serious help...

I'm good!

I had stuff to add. And spelling errors to fix. (Stupid autocorrect)...

@Tesh

I'm interested in seeing the next step in progression for the cloaks.

We've gone from Mistcloak to Mistcoat, what would the 1980's version be? Mistsuit?

I'm going with Mistglam. Think Cinderella or Bon Jovi circa 86'. Almost all their pants have tassels, lol.

Mistsuit sounds interesting to me. 

When you're trying to think of the name of a character - Toth from Nomad of Nowhere - and your mind offers Teft and Tesh first. 

[Ink he/him]

When you go to throw away aluminum foil, and stop to think how much money it would be worth on scadrial.

when you watch The Last Jedi and keep calling the horse-things (faviers?) Ryshadium

you read about savant syndrome and immediately think of Spook

edit: my cousin found a road spike and tried to steal my Investure...

I don't have an aluminum hat. Not at all. What are you talking about?

[Sunbird she/her]

When you see the book title "Wasting" and initially misread it as "Wasing."

[Rebecca she/her]

When your brother starts singing “Cause baby I’m gonna spike you!” to the tune of Firework, and you get very afraid. He does not understand what he speaks.

[EddyJ he/him]

When you're assigned to read a novel for humanities, and part of the way through the main character starts having hallucinations, and you start wondering how Investiture is affecting her mind....

[Stormblessed Dolphin he/him]

When you're playing Scrabble, and you almost have the letters to do Leras, and no one else understands why. and they look at you, like you're crazy (which you are)

[AonEne he/him]

When you see the phrase "It's not about waiting out the storm, it's about dancing in the rain!" and your first thought is "Not in a highstorm!". 

When you realize that Shallan gave Red, Gaz, Vathah, and the rest a REDemption arc. (I spend far too much time thinking about Cosmere puns.
