    It's cool. Why don't you just change your signature to "FATHER NO"?

    Well, I'm a dude, and I'm pretty sure I'm not Peter Thiel. I could be wrong, but I don't think so.

    After months-long deliberation, I decided I'd want to be a Lurcher/Spinner. I love the idea of Pulling on metals, and, come on. Luck? Luck. In second place, I'd choose Electrum/Zinc. Third, probably Tin Compounder. Just for fun. (Honorary mentions go to Iron Compounding and Chromium Compounding)

    I wonder what ever happened to Slappy...

    What do you mean. The cookies here are delicious. They really speak to me. Also, @Xander Freud, if you only follow one rule here, it should be that you protect Renarin, Allik, and Steris with your life and never let any harm come to them as long as you draw Breath have fun! Have a moderate amount of well-placed fun!

    If we can talk about my same-sex high school relationship problems (which are somehow both plentiful and scarce at the same time), any problems are welcome, and we'll try and help out as much as possible.

    Your dad jokes somehow both disappoint and amuse me greatly, simultaneously. EDIT: My all-time favorite Dad joke EVER (this one's for you, @Mistrunner)

    Welcome! I just finished warbreaker, it's a worthwhile read. Have fun on the Shard! Have an up vote, and I hope to see great things from you! Stay chill.

    My thanks. I'll keep you posted.

    Yeah, that's more what I'm aiming at. I love my friends and all, but I want someone (guy or girl) not because it's some platonic thing, but because I long for something... Closer, I guess is the right word. To quote Dawes, "If I wanted someone to clean me up, I'd find myself a maid If I wanted someone to spend my money, I wouldn't need to get paid If I wanted someone to understand me, I'd have so much more to say I want you to make the days move easy."

    Same! I relate.

    I feel you

    Ah Thanks!

    They don't even know he's bisexual, another big "oh no" for me.

    I left my copy of SoS at camp this past summer, and they throw away pretty much anything left behind, so I'll have to replace it with my own money (I got it as a Christmas gift from my parents, originally) Sigh

    Found this on Coppermind: Hoid does not yet have the abilities of every planet he's visited.[42] Some of his powers predate the Shattering, but none of them are gained through Hemalurgy.[43] When asked about how many types of magic he can use, Brandon has pointed out that they are all really part of the same system so it's difficult to count, but he wouldn't say that Hoid knows 'hundreds' of varieties of magic.[44] Feruchemy - Hoid uses Feruchemy to gain limited foresight--he knows where he needs to go and when he needs to be there.[46][47] Allomancy - Hoid retrieved a bead of Lerasium from the Well of Ascension so that he could become an allomancer.[20][48] Brandon has been very careful with his wording[49], so it is unclear if he used it for that purpose, but he does appear to consume metal in Shallan's flashback the same way an Allomancer would.[50][51] Brandon also said that he did it to make people act a certain way, implying that he was burning brass or zinc.[52]

    Yeah, I never tried it, but I hear it's intense. (This article is from ten years ago but its relevant so yeah) http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/news/nation/2006-07-03-hot-ice-cream_x.htm EDIT: I found the waiver: http://www.coldsweaticecream.com/Cold_Sweat_Waiver.htm

    I have had my internal struggles with Chromium Feruchemy, and I don't know if it's that reliable Maybe we just RAFO?
  21. marsoupial
    Well, I was thinking along the lines of time travel for lerasium (as in going backwards and forwards in time), and you can just disregard the second part about the alloy, my brain goes weird places when I theorize, sorry.
  22. marsoupial
    Wait, no, not serrano. Habanero. Hence the waiver.
  23. marsoupial
    Oh, ok. Thanks. What if there was an alloy of cadmium + bendalloy, and the Feruchemical use for that was being able to slow down and speed up time in a bubble around you?
  24. marsoupial
    In the town where my mom grew up, there was an ice cream place that had an ice cream called Cold Sweat, which was vanilla with serrano peppers mixed in. You had to sign a waiver before you could eat it.

    So, it is generally established that in Well of Ascension, at, well, the Well of Ascension, Hoid steals a lerasium bead and is somehow using it (I assume Feruchemically, don't know why) and that got me thinking, what could lerasium be used for Feruchemically? Well, I have an idea. Time travel. No, no, bear with me, dear readers. I know you all think I've gone insane, in fact, most of my friends believe that to be true. But bear with me for just a moment longer. Hoid has been travelling all over the cosmere, for some reason unbeknownst to us, and he continues to pop up during the most important times. But no one can be that punctual, not even our dear King's Wit himself, so I wonder: Could lerasium be used to traverse the winds of time? Filling your lerasium-mind could enable you to go backwards as far as you please, and tapping it would enable you to go forwards. Or maybe I've just been watching too much Doctor Who. Regardless... thoughts? Ideas? Observations? Criticisms? Suggestions? Advice? Information? Free giveaways? Any input is welcome.
