Sanderson "Would you Rather"

[aetherbound he/him]

Forward

WYR be a skaa or a parshendi

[Lunamor she/her]

Skaa, unless I’m a plantation skaa, in which case I’d pick parshendi instead.

WYR be a radiant with a shardblade but no spren or a radiant with a spren but no shardblade?

[Faerie Braids she/her]

Radiant with a spren but no shardblade, without question.

WYR spend your life stacking rocks or managing Tashikki spanreed chains.

[Lunamor she/her]

Tashikki spanreed chains, I don’t want to get my hands all torn up and bloody all the time.

WYR have a random possession “traded” by Wayne or your meal stolen by Lift?

[aetherbound he/him]

Lift can have my meal, I can't lose one of my books.

WYR be a feruchemist or own a suit of shardplate?

[Hmmm lies she/her]

Full Feruchemist? Definitely, I can get most of the same benefits by storing strength anyway.

WYR Have Taln's Honorblade or 10 seons

[aetherbound he/him]

Taln's Honorblade, we have seons already, they're called "phones"

WYR have brandon finish Elantris or The Rithmatist?

[Hmmm lies she/her]

Both books are already finished, but probably Elantris.

WYR have Brandon finish Elantris 2 or Rithmatist 2

[aetherbound he/him]

34 minutes ago, Hmmm lies said:

WYR have Brandon finish Elantris 2 or Rithmatist 2

(I meant finish them as serieses)

Also, I would prefer the Azlantian to Elantris 2.

WYR watch Kaladin die or never read Wind and Truth?

[Faerie Braids she/her]

Watch Kaladin die. I would cry an entire ocean, but if there is any author I trust to write a satisfying end to a main character, it is Brandon Sanderson.

WYR have Purelake fish sushi or Aviar drumsticks.

[Ookla she/her]

Purelake fish sushi. Poultry is good, but I eat chicken way more often than I eat sushi, and I assume that Aviar drumsticks would be relatively similar to chicken.

WYR (spoilers for secret projects, though I don't know how necessary that is anymore)

Spoiler

dive into the nightmare mist on Komashi or face the sun on Canticle?

 

[Hmmm lies she/her]

The second option, both would kill me, but at least this way 

Spoiler

my soul gets to go to the Beyond

WYR have the power to make anyone read Elantris and Warbreaker, but no other book, or have the power to make anyone read Mistborn book 1, but no other book.

[Lunamor she/her]

The power to make them read Mistborn book one, they’d probably be more likely to get hooked on the Cosmere that way.

WYR be able to lash things upwards or sideways?

[ThroughTheLivingSequence she/her/they/them]

Probably upwards, seems more useful! ... Although.. I could fulfill that life-long dream of grabbing the remote from foar away with sideways lashings, couldn't I?

Would you rather come into possession of a coppermind filled with all of Hoid's memories and knowledge or be an exceptionally skilled soother?

[Iron-Eyes he/him]

A Coppermine filled with all Hoid's memories and knowledge, using that I would probably be able to make myself into one of the most powerful beings in the cosmere.

Quote

you forgot to add a question...

 

[Iron-Eyes he/him]

oh, sorry

would you rather give your hands to Ulam, or your legs to Melaan?

[Lunamor she/her]

My legs to MeLaan, I’d rather have use of my hands.

WYR own an aviar or a larkin?

[Ookla she/her]

Larkin! Well, except that I don't have the Stormlight to feed it. But Larkin are cute, and I already have a bunch of chickens.  (Actually, I mean that both in a Roshar-joke sort of way and literally. I have a lot of chickens.) (Also, surprisingly, autocucumber recognizes 'Larkin' as an actual word--though not 'larkin'.)

WYR attend the Church of the Survivor every day for the rest of your life or become an ardent?

[Soulbinder she/her]

Probably an ardent, because there seems like there would be more to do. I mean, I could basically spend a lot of time reading and people would probably think I'm super devout or something.

WYR live under the Lord Ruler or Steelheart? (assume you are a skaa/average citizen)

[aetherbound he/him]

Steelheart, at least there's some modern technology.

WYR try to survive a week on the shattered plains as a radiant, or on patji as a normal person.

[Ookla she/her]

Shattered Plains, 100%. If I were on Patji, I'd be well and thoroughly screwed. At least on the Shattered Plains I'd have access to Stormlight occasionally, and/or a spren or Shardblade to help me chase chasmfiends away. 

WYR take up Odium or Autonomy?

[Through The Living Glass She/They]

Autonomy, 100%. I wouldn't be confined to the Rosharian system... *plots to take over the cosmere*

WYR have a pet larkin or a pet axehound?

[Faerie Braids she/her]

Larkin! They are different enough from any real-world animal to be really cute, whereas axehounds are close enough to dogs that I find them a little bit creepy.

WYR be a spren trapped in a gemstone, or an inquisitor controlled by Ruin?

[Hmmm lies she/her]

An Inquisitor, both would suck, but at least there is a small chance I get to be Marsh.

WYR be a vegetarian kandra, or a koloss with complete sentience (You still have the never-ending growth problem).
