    The duchess, who had become distracted admiring the ceiling, turned back to the Queen. "What's that? Oh, yes, the pizza party! Well, I haven't heard back from Kipper on it, but I suppose all that means is that the idea's not been shot down yet. I say we move on to preparing for the party. I'll go fetch some refreshments from the Bar..." She made as if to leave, then circled back to the queen. "I think we should invite the Knights Awkward to the party. Nothing says they'll come- too busy reading books and all- but I think it could be a nice welcome."

    With a flourish, Brightness Random entered and knelt before mistrunner. "M'lady, I ask your permission to join this guild. I am already confident in my ability to live the first oath: Books before friends. 17th Shard before the real world. Release dates before birthdays."
  3. Brightness Random
    ...I'm very glad I asked. Could I join the Knights Awkward? My Honorspren and I are already living the first oath, and I pretty certain I'm prepard to speak the second ideal: I will make Cosmere references for those who cannot make Cosmere references themselves.

    Mistrunner, have you bonded a Cryptic? Is that why the truth is coming out now?

    *sigh* Yes, that would have been wise. As effective as this would have been, I somehow managed not to this either. Let this be a lesson to all of you, Sharders. When you see the stick shirt, move quickly.

    When you're out in the cold outdoors and see your breath puffing out in front of you so lean over to your friend and say "My life to yours, my Breath become yours." before exhaling dramatically. When you're at a concert and see that someone across the room from you is wearing an "I am a stick" shirt and spend the entire rest of the concert planning to go over and say "But you could be a fire". Then pout half the evening when they manage to get leave the room before you even stand up. When the text on your birthday cake is in High Imperial. (Best part of my birthday )

    That's awesome, Lark! I love the feeling after doing well at a concert. If you're looking for something to paint, I always think doing band instruments is an interesting challenge. Getting all the little pipes on the brass instruments to line up right is always engaging. Of course, feel more than welcome to ignore this suggestion. You're the one painting it, after all.

    She's letting him off?! Brightness thought in indignation, I nearly dropped my book because of him! She took a few calming breaths. ​Don't go crazy, Brightness, she reminded herself. "It would seem the DA has a surplus of mistings to work with if they've begun experimenting on carrots." the duchess noted with dislike as her boss strode towards the door. Turning to the queen, her demeanor instantly lightened. "Those are my favorite toppings too! It's good to meet another person who isn't obsessed with pepperoni." As she spoke, Brightness filled in the survey on her clipboard, recording Elsa's response. "Would it really be okay if we hosted a pizza night here in Newcago?" she asked excitedly, "That would be fantastic! We could have root beer, pizza, music... probably extra security to keep out any attackers... and I would be able to get a pineapple pizza without worrying that no one else would eat any! I could bring some of the Bar's new mugs, some chocolates.... And extra cheese! Always extra cheese. I greatly enjoy cheese myself." the duchess said with a smile. "Er, on my pizza, that is. Not with the chocolates." Brightness looked up in realization. "Oh! Um, I should probably double check with my boss before throwing a party at the Court. I'm not necessarily in charge of the Bar anymore, now that Sno- I mean Kipper- is back..." She trailed off, then began shouting at the retreating form of Kipper. "Oi! Peacegiver! Can we throw a Newcago pizza party?"

    Brightness stared for a moment at the glimmering sliver of metal stuck through the vegetable in her hand, bewildered. What...? she wondered. Cocking her head, she thought for a moment. Then nearly dropped her book. Distracted, Brightness had left the huge novel in her other hand unbalanced. Her eyes went wide as she realized The Way of Kings was now plummeting towards the ground. With alarm, she frantically snapped her hand closed around the book's spine as it twisted downward. Fortunately, she caught it. Unfortunately, the action slammed the pages closed, resulting in an enormous thunk that echoed around the spacious room. Brightness winced at noise, squeezing her eyes shut. After a long few seconds, the embarrassed duchess cracked one eye open to survey reactions. "Sorry!" she squeaked.

    "By the Parshendi?" Brightness asked, turning to Winter in concern. Without waiting for an answer, the duchess continued, frowning in thought. "I feel like, rather than killing the last of their race, we should focus on the one manipulating them... I do understand that battle is necessary sometimes, but for the most part I just feel like Kaladin." with a sigh, she pulled out a worn looking copy of The Way of Kings and flipped to a well annotated page. "Wait!" she read, "Why is there so much war? Must we always fight?" Return of my book!

    "I've been alright, your majesty." Brightness said with a tired smile. "I'll be better after summer arrives and chases off all thoughts of homework, but I've managed to keep my head above the water so far, and that's good. How about you, Elsa? Has the Court been alright since all those attacks?" "We've been trying to get business up again at the Bar, so I'm taking inventory of people's interest." The duchess explained while flipping through the papers on her clip board. "Here it is! Okay, here's the first batch of questions: How often do you drink soda? Are you interested in hearing poetry or songs about root beer? Would you be interested in attending a pizza night? If so, what are your preferred pizza toppings?"

    I’ll be the first to admit that my specialties lie more in pun making than meme making, but I thought I’d try my hand at it. Elantris: My life as a Sanderfan:

    Cool! Roleplaying is fun, and fan fiction is great too! I dabble in fan fiction myself, and I'm actually planning to write a Mistborn/Avengers crossover once school gets out.

    @LouiseSparrow, no problem! Out of curiosity, what sort of stuff do you usually write? @LarkoftheRiver, LouiseSparrow and I were referring to my signature, where I've begun advertising the guild. Unfortunately, there's not any images. Though an image of a Guild of Arts crest could make for some nice advertising, now that I think about it.... Anybody have time to make a Guild of Arts crest?

    @ChullRider, how's this?

    From one of the side entrances, Brightness Random peeked into the throne room before sighing in relief and coming in. "Finally!" she huffed, "You wouldn't think it would be possible to get lost from the front door to the throne room, and yet here I am, twenty minutes later." Pulling out a clipboard, she looked around at the room's inhabitants. "I'm taking a survey for the Root Beer Bar, do any of you have a moment to answer a few questions?"

    Brightness watched as he rushed off, leaving a dripped trail of pink across the floor. "I didn't paint anything other than canvas!" She muttered to herself with a frown. Aaaand now the floor needs to be mopped again. Storming wonderful. she thought with exasperation. Looking back up at the wall with it's bright silhouette, she inspected the pose Kipper had made. She never would have guessed her boss was anything other than human. It seemed he played the part well. But whose bones was he wearing, and why did he seem to have exactly the same personality? He doesn't have to be on a contract to go out, she reminded herself, he could just be himself. Things have changed since you last visited Scadrial. Still, it was difficult not to be at least slightly suspicious. "I need to think about this." Brightness decided, fastening her cloak. "Away from here." Hoping her boss would think to wipe up the paint before it dried, she slipped out the door and into the sunlight.

    My name's Megumi. I think it's a pretty nice name. Interestingly, I've never really gotten a nickname that sticks, despite the trouble people tend to have figuring out my name.

    "I don't know!" Brightness said in exasperation, tossing up her arms, "Maybe you teleported in! If you hadn't exactly noticed, I wasn't awake and things around here are by no means normal. And have you always been a kandra? Or did you just announce that and blow your cover?" She sighed, brushing some dust and cobwebs off one of the once clean tables with her gloved hand before seating herself there. "I feel like true friends shouldn't keep their kandra-ship from each other." she said, pouting. After a moment of thought, she continued her rambling. "I think I'm alone here... Never know what's hiding in the back rooms, lights haven't turned on since I forgot to pay the electric bill, but I think the garnet chips work just fine out here. No one really comes by anymore. I think they're all off fighting in the War for Vengeance. The Parshendi, under direction of Rayse of course, attacked the Court on multiple occasions, and so we declared war. Everyone keeps getting possessed and attacking each other. It's weird. I just stay in here and make sure to lock the door at night."

    "Hey! Snoo- I mean Kipper! You're back!" Brightness exclaimed, appearing from what had previously appeared to be simply a giant pile of homework. Wading out from the mountain of assignments, the sleep deprived girl reached for a mug. "Here, want some root beer? I'm going to assume you want some root beer, since you came here..." After groggily pouring a mug, she held it out to her former boss. "Here you go, Kip-" she paused for a moment, staring in confusion. "Are you a fish now?"

    When you're getting ready for prom and you feel like you're preparing to go to a Luthadel ball.

    You know you're a Sanderfan when your strategy for winning at checkers is titled "The Way of Kings".

    Cthulhu, thine request has been, after careful deliberation, accepted. Welcome to the lands of root beer! So... it may be a little late to ask, what with me already having accepted you into the guild, but what's your opinion of root beer?
  24. Brightness Random
    Welcome, mistrunner! We'd love to have you! It's always nice to meet another root beer lover. EDIT: I'll see if I can get Snoopy to add you name to the member list.

    If you considered the Cosmere a single series, it might have been a few decades before you could start. Ah, an Elantris through Dragonsteel readathon sounds wonderful...
