The Knights Awkward

[adamlewis he/him]

The new quipsmith, Raklan, runs out the door, sensing something. In the shadows, he sees a form twisting away. Sticking his hand out as he runs, his homorspren turns into mist and condenses into a shining, silvery... chicken bone? OK, Raklan thought. They were going to talk about his weapons very soon. But no matter, a chicken bone was just as deadly. He ran after the form, Shardbone in hand, and ran down a Dark Alley...

The man in the mistcloak looked confused for a second. "A Seon?" His eyebrows furrowed. "You mean my Spren?" He glanced up at it and it shifted into the form of a bucket. Then a flapping banner. And then into a smaller blue orb with wings and that flew around his head, saying, "HEY! LISTEN!"

He grimaced as Mistrunner raised an eyebrow.

"Valinean's a little... wound up at the moment," he said. The blue orb- Valinean- shifted into the form of a young man reclining on the shoulder of the mistcloak and sighed.

"Nobody gets my jokes," he mourned.

"You said something about ship cookies?" The man asked, pointedly ignoring his spren. "I'll take the 'Vividin' ones," he said, snatching it off the plate and then he shoved it into his mouth.

"Mah nham's-" he started, swallowed, then finished with an awkward half bow, "Peorin."

"See," Valinean began, hovering for a moment in the reclined position as Peorin bowed. "We used to be apart of the Dustbringers order, but Rin here has allergies."

"That's why we came here," Peorin added. "Plus, no one in the entirety of the Cosmere hasn't heard of your delicious cookies!" He wolfed down a few more.

[Amrynn he/him]

Amrynn jerked his head up, seeing the newcomer and hearing a familiar sound.

"Navi?" He said, walking over to Peorin. "Ah, friend, I do indeed get your jokes and I think you'd find quite a few around here that do as well, we just tend to be quieter folk." Amrynn was still wearing his green tunic and chain mail that he'd neglected to change out of. Fi fluttered over with him, circling Valinean in curiosity.

"Amrynn, what's this? Do you know it?" The spren asked.

Amrynn ignored her. "This is my spren, Fi. I think you'll get along here just fine."

[CarolaDavar she/her]

"MIstrunner, did you finish the Kalavin bookies? I want one!"

[Master Elodin]

Carola, I wrote a small review of your Steamcasters ring story. I'll write more about it if you want.

[TheSurvivorOfFlames]

"So..." Peorin began. "Do we have a thread to place all of our theories in?"

He snapped his fingers out to his side a bit as a nervous tic and people suddenly gasped as his hands burst into brilliant blue flames.

"Because it seems that this really just deteriorated into a thread of peculiar tasting baked goods and falling on-" he paused as he noticed Amrynn gaping at his hands. "What? Have you guys never summoned your Spren as fire before?"

"It's kind of like singing from your hands," Lin explained, changing back to his original form.

*psst* spoke Al's trusted blade AdviceBringer, *perhaps you should say something nice to the newcomer, instead of just blathering on. It is impolite to blather without proper compliments*

"Oh. You're right AdviceBringer. You have a very nice profile pic there Dragon314!"

[July]

Hello my fellow Knights I have returned from my long journey and I have brought nothing back of any notice.

[Mistrunner]

"MIstrunner, did you finish the Kalavin bookies? I want one!"

"Yes!" Mistrunner says excitedly. "They're right here next to the Sodium bookies. They taste a bit bitter and might make you cry, but they're really, really good." Realizing that something she said may need clarification, she adds "Sodium is Sadeas/Odium. I really don't know what I was thinking. I should probably burn those."

[Nashan’Elin he/him]

"Yes!" Mistrunner says excitedly. "They're right here next to the Sodium bookies. They taste a bit bitter and might make you cry, but they're really, really good." Realizing that something she said may need clarification, she adds "Sodium is Sadeas/Odium. I really don't know what I was thinking. I should probably burn those."

"Sodium bookies?" A horrified look goes across Nashan's face. "Sadeas and Odium? I doubt burning them would be enough! We'll probably have to find or make a black hole to get rid of those."

[RippleGylf she/her]

"Sodium bookies?" A horrified look goes across Nashan's face. "Sadeas and Odium? I doubt burning them would be enough! We'll probably have to find or make a black hole to get rid of those."

Ripple, who has been way too deep in her book, suddenly looks up. "Sodium bookies? Those sure sound Na-sty. Hope they're not too salty." Her barely-contained laughter is visible on her face.

[Nashan’Elin he/him]

Nashan facepalms so hard his hand goes through his face and comes out his head. He taps some gold, and then does it again.

[Clockwork he/him]

Chasmfiend seems thoughtful for a moment, then grabs one and eats it. "I prefer straight Odium, but their not terrible."

[Pikachu she/her]

Pikachu, (Finally waking up from a forever long nap on a gigantic pillow in the southeast unexplored room of the great hall) makes a disgusted face, nose wrinkling at the peculiar bookies. "what a perfectly DREADFUL smell to wake up to."

[Jeffywan he/him]

I will convert those who are not

I will convince those without to buy at least three copies

I will provide a book to anyone without

Hoping a spren will accept my oaths (I have a hard time lending but believe the same intent is there)

[Mistrunner]

Mistrunner cautiously makes her way back into the room, holding a broom and dustpan. "Your oaths, Knight Jeffywan, are accepted. Welcome to the Stronghold of the Knights Awkward. Keep an eye out for Sodium bookie crumbs." She notices a tiny crumb (or possibly lint) and immediately sweeps it up and throws it into the dungeons."BEGONE, YE FOUL BAKED GOOD OF THE NETHER REALMS," she yells, then remembers Jeffywan's presence. "I- I'm- I swear it's usually more... ah... less... weird," she says. "Never mind, this sort of thing happens all the time. I hope you realize what you've gotten yourself into."

[Nashan’Elin he/him]

"Its feels like we're always saying it's less weird around here, but it's pretty much always the same." Nashan says as he wanders the room, also on the lookout for the horrible bookie crumbs.

[Clockwork he/him]

*Chasmfiend continues to eat the Sodium bookies... That seem to have been spiked by him...*

 

"Have any of you even tried them, or are they compatible with only my name?"

[CarolaDavar she/her]

"Yes!" Mistrunner says excitedly. "They're right here next to the Sodium bookies. They taste a bit bitter and might make you cry, but they're really, really good." Realizing that something she said may need clarification, she adds "Sodium is Sadeas/Odium. I really don't know what I was thinking. I should probably burn those."

This. . . This is just terrifying.

[Sunbird she/her]

This. . . This is just terrifying.

 

Sunbird looks up from her book long enough to interject, "I think the question is, which is worse: Sodium bookies that are Sadeas/Odium, or Sodium bookies that are made from sodium metal? A Sadeas/Odium bookie may be made of evil, but a sodium metal bookie will explode in your mouth and probably blow your head off."

[Nashan’Elin he/him]

A Sadeas/Odium bookie may be made of evil, but a sodium metal bookie will explode in your mouth and probably blow your head off."

"Well, I think it works like this: If you eat a Sodium Sadeas/Odium bookie, you'll need a sodium metal bookie to get the taste out of your mouth."

[CarolaDavar she/her]

"Well, I think it works like this: If you eat a Sodium Sadeas/Odium bookie, you'll need a sodium metal bookie to get the taste out of your mouth."

All in favor? * raises hand*

[Pikachu she/her]

*raises paw (hand??) 

[Nashan’Elin he/him]

"I don't get it. What are we in favor of?"

[TheSurvivorOfFlames]

All in favor? * raises hand*

"More like, 'All in Flavor'!" Peorin said then got the customary high five over the shoulder from Valinean.
