  1. What I actually love is that in the end it strengthens the story. The way Design spoils at the beginning the fact that the dog never becomes a dragon actually adds to the story itself on top of being funny, like how in the Princess Bride the grandfather spoils the fact that Humperdink never gets killed, but the story still ends well.
  2. Here is a new RoW one. I posted it in the RoW version of the thread here: https://www.17thshard.com/forum/topic/93274-rhythm-of-war-song-parodies/?do=findComment&comment=1139721 The song itself isn't very spoilery but the description for where I see it fitting in the narrative is.
  3. Here is one with minimal changes sung by Shallan to the tune of "Words Fail" from Dear Evan Hansen. I picture it taking place right before the Formless part of Part 4, but it honestly fits pretty well through most of Shallan's arc.
  4. No, I think you did it perfectly. Part of the bit is that they lead to funny connections between works.
  5. The public perception of Cultivation's personality on Roshar: Cultivation's actual personality:
  6. Isn't this also the combined plots of A New Hope and Empire (if you replaced redhead with blond)? Both Yoda and Vader could be described as disabled vets who beat up Luke.
  7. Fun fact: if you get 50,000 sheep you achieve the tenth heightening and can command the robber without army cards. It never comes into play because it is basically impossible to get there without someone scoring 10 VP.
  8. A few things: 1. Lucy: I built the whole set! Ben: 2. About Mraize v. Nalan: I disagree about Nalan fighting honorably. Nalan fights legally, but once he has established that his target has committed a crime (and he has made sure that attacking him is a capital offense basically anywhere on Roshar) he will use any tactic legally available to kill them, without caring about honor or honesty. For example, he needed to kill Gavilar, so he tipped off the enemy that technically they had legal grounds to assassinate him, thereby removing the issue. Nalan is also used to fighting criminals, and he won't be caught off-guard by his opponent fighting dirty. 3. What Adolin and Maya were doing are called Katas, not Catan, though now I have this amazing image in my head of the two of them just sitting at a table playing Settlers.
  9. As far as I'm aware, there are only feruchemy medallions, not alomancy ones, so the bird coppercloud-like effect (which I bet also hides your biochromatic aura, though that is only theory) would not work. Also, medallions are difficult to make, need to be charged, and can't be stacked, and I don't think anything we have seen on Scadrial does Sak's death shadow thing, not even Atium (which they probably don't have anymore anyway).
  10. I keep wanting to make some sort of "everything he touches turns to gold" joke about Renarin due to how his powers reacted to Moash, but I can't think of the right wording.
  11. mmmm... lies Also, how is there no simple image of pattern with the words "Mmmm... lies" on top?
  12. Maybe, in the vein of Oathbringer, it's Szeth's tell-all autobiography: Killing Odium: Whoops, Taravangian.
  13. My favorite joke option is Kname of the Wind.
  14. So, how does it feel to be the old veteran who's been here forever? Darn upstarts, get off my lawn! Back in my day, we had to write song parodies to win days, and we liked it! Kids these days......
  15. I'm sorry, what is this "Christmas" you speak of. I celebrate Koloss Head-Munching Day in the Winter months.
  16. The spoiler period means you are literally not allowed to talk about the work outside of the designated thread. Technically, as this is not a Cosmere section, it should not be assumed that unspoiled spoilers are allowed and is generally considered both more polite and I think more rule-following to put major spoilers in spoiler boxes. Lots of people who have not finished all of the books frequent these parts of the Shard. Finally, having these in spoilers just makes the pages less cluttered (especially when some of the images are really big) and helps to break up what the topic of the meme is.
  17. Isn't this a bit of a spoiler?
  18. Shhhhhhhhhhhhhh, don't tell Brandon. We're all only pretending to acknowledge that WS exists.
  19. I just wanted to let you know that in WoR, Eshonai explains that they always had five leaders, but once they found nimbleform they decided to make each one represent a form because they had five forms.
  20. Wasn't that Vin?
  21. I think you underestimate the power of that vindictive toaster:
  22. Me: Wow Adolin, some of your interactions with your father are pretty passive aggressive. Adolin: Also:
