  1. Butt sent them an invitation to his grilled cheese restaurant.
  2. “I wasn’t in the Void when you found me. The last few months are kind of a blur—how I got where I was...that’s a mystery to me. I’d lost all connection to the Void in there.”
  3. Hmm... The general consensus I’ve seen is $10,000 up front, and I’d probably do the same. Helps me pay for college much more easily. I’d have to go with levitation. It’s simple, but the simplicity appeals to me for some reason. I usually say my favorite band is Of Monsters and Men. But I have quite a lot of favorite artists—Ben Rector, Andrew Belle, Axel Flóvent, The Lumineers... I just really like music. My favorite song is The Mason by Jake Scott. I play the trumpet, and above every instrument on its own, I’d much prefer listening to a full orchestra. If I had to pick one though, I’d say the cello. Such a deep, beautiful sound.
  4. Do you have any weird habits? What is/was your favorite part of quarantine? What is/was your least favorite part of quarantine? Do you like pandas? Based on the alignment of the rain clouds with the sun, on a scale of 1 to 10, how much does a unicorn hoof cost in New Zealand?
  5. "Different sides?" said Xino. "I wasn't aware there were more than two..." “It’s hard to comprehend.” Jaywalk scratched his head. “You start dealing with infinity, you go a little crazy. I’ve been to a lot of places—some different sides of the same places. Universes, galaxies, planets, nations.” He looked at Xino. “Do you know much about the Void?”
  6. “I was,” Jaywalk said, “but I’ve found myself on many different sides. It was the will of the Void that I made it here, I guess.” He frowned. “Though I can’t imagine why.”
  7. More light would disturb the balance in their alley.
  8. But the others disapproved of such an extreme suggestion.
  9. Cloned from the single survivor of the famine.
  10. Thanks you two for your support, it really means a lot.
  11. For a long time, I’ve had a really good relationship with my dad. But lately, tension’s been building between us (a problem stemming partly from the struggles of quarantine, I think), and today it came to a head. Suddenly I feel as if he’s lost confidence in me, having less in me than I do in myself, which is saying something, because I’m not a naturally confident person. Half of me says he’s completely justified, and the other half wants to listen to my loving mother, who tells me I should be confident in myself. I’m torn between the two, lost as to how I feel. I love both my parents, I know they both love me, but the best way I can put my state right now... is lost. I just feel very, very lost.
  12. 1. My favorite thread has to be The Longest Thread. Easily. Sure, the idea of it sounds like it’s setting up for spamming, but some great humor, creativity, and a wonderful micro-community have made it one of my favorite things to participate in. Going back 600 pages or so to read stuff is a great time. 2. Hmm, I’m not sure I have anything that made me die of laughter, but if anyone’s gonna give me a good laugh whenever he’s around, it’s @Archer. Great man. 3. I’m gonna echo what @Wyndlerunner said. @AonEne was one of the first friends I had on the Shard, and she’s probably the reason I’m still here today. Her kindness—along with that of the very welcoming Alleyverse community—really made me feel like I belonged here. Thank you for that, Ene, and like Wyn said, you really are a force for good. 4. Again, I don’t really have a specific answer, but a lot of well-crafted theories and RP posts have really impressed me with both the quality and dedication. 5. I wasn’t the only one—not by a long shot—but I’m very proud of what we’ve created with the Longest Thread, plot, randomness and all. 6. The early days of the Longest Thread would be such a party to relive. Finally, thank you to all the admins, mods, and members that make the Shard such a great place. This fandom is really something special.
  13. I joined the Shard on a whim after lurking for a while, and it’s been such a wonderful experience the entire time. Thank you to the staff for making it such a great place!
  14. The highstorm tossed the merchant into a chasm.
  15. I’m not sure I have a preference on where the story goes—I don’t doubt I’ll love whatever Brandon gives us—but the more I think about it the more I like the idea of Navani bonding the Nightwatcher. I think that presents potential for an interesting dynamic/conflict between the two, as I would say Navani’s relationship with Dalinar is something she owes to the Nightwatcher, who laid the groundwork for it by taking away his memory of Evi. I’d also be curious to see how the Nightwatcher would take to the trapping of spren in fabrials, perhaps developing a fear or dislike of the artifabrians. I like that possibility, but I also like the idea of Navani not being a Radiant and using her skills as an artifabrian to help in the war instead. Both would be very cool, I think.
