What does 'surrendering' a conversation have to do with that?" “If you aren’t talking, you aren’t convincing,” Kelsier said idly, continuing to read. “You had me interested before, which was good for you. Now I’d rather read my book.”

Condensation she/her Posted April 5, 2021 Posted April 5, 2021 "What are we talking about?" Faith asked.

Pastime? Well, I guess it can be. But I think I count reading as a hobby. Maybe it's not exactly active, but it can get a little active with theorizers." He stops talking for a moment. "Not that I'm one, but still." "I guess. But with a hobby you're making something, like a scarf or a journal or sculpture. But reading you just read, and I think theorizing is a hobby separate from the pastime." 20 hours ago, Random Bystander said: She snorted. "I'm not so sure..." "Agreed." She said, turning back to her notes. "Would either of you know the chemical formula of ortho diethynylbenzene dianion by any chance? I can't for the life of me remember what it is... Bases aren't my strong suit. I tend to forget them." "I have no idea. The deepest I've gotten into this sort of thing is Theodore Brown's Molecule book. Uh... a benzene sounds like a carbon ring? Maybe?"

"I think you're right there, but that doesn't give me the formula..." She sighed. "Ortho diethynylbenzene dianion is a superbase. It's actually one of the strongest superbases there is."
Kingsdaughter613 she/her Posted April 7, 2021 Posted April 7, 2021 @Channelknight Fadran Quote I’m waiting for your response. Want to jump to wherever we’re going?

Kingsdaughter613 she/her Posted April 7, 2021 Posted April 7, 2021 1 minute ago, Channelknight Fadran said: "What?" Kelsier chuckled softly. “Weathering belonged to Dawnshot,” he explained. “Narrative causality would dictate that our mystery man be here.”
Kingsdaughter613 she/her Posted April 7, 2021 Posted April 7, 2021 36 minutes ago, Channelknight Fadran said: "Who's Dawnshot?" Kelsier raised a brow as he exited the train. “I thought you read Mistborn?”
Kingsdaughter613 she/her Posted April 7, 2021 Posted April 7, 2021 2 hours ago, Channelknight Fadran said: "Yeah, like... nine years ago." “So? Trésor’s sister hadn’t read Warbreaker in nearly a decade and still remembered what Warbreaker did to the priest’s daughter. Length of time has very little to do with remembering things you love.”
Kingsdaughter613 she/her Posted April 7, 2021 Posted April 7, 2021 Just now, Channelknight Fadran said: "Mistborn wasn't my favorite series." “And Warbreaker wasn’t her favorite book.” Quote I’m not actually making this up... Trésor is an arcanist for a reason. I do remember weird minor details from the books.
Channelknight Fadran Posted April 7, 2021 Posted April 7, 2021 Just now, Kingsdaughter613 said: “And Warbreaker wasn’t her favorite book.” "So? Some people remember weird stuff. So I repeat my question: who's Dawnshot?"
