  1. Funny conversation overheard:

    "OH MY GOSH IT'S SO COLD!!"

    "SUCKS TO BE YOU YOU DON'T HAVE A JACKET!"

    "I DO IT'S IN MY ARMS RIGHT HERE!"

    "THEN WHY AREN'T YOU WEARING IT?"

    "BECAUSE I'M STUPIIIIID!!"

    Ah, finally, I've gotten to part two.

      Yeah, not for free, though! Sorry if that was confusing.

  3. Thoughts:
    Cross country is the best sport, camaraderie-wise at least. Have I done many/any other sports? Nooo... but XC is amazing.
    Funny out-of-context sentences:
    "I accidentally waterboarded myself with my hair."
    "I looked at a horse and said, 'That cow looks like ice cream!'"

    If I get a tiny, cute(male), puppy with black, curly/shaggy fur, I will name him Johnny. You can't stop me.

  9. All y'all artist people. Any tips for shading? I'm seriously struggling to figure it out. I can't do anything that actually works and adds depth.

      I’ll record a little something for you, Stormy :) what exactly are you trying to shade? Just anything?

    3. Lament on the Wind

      Lament on the Wind

      Hi! An art human here!Here are some things that I hope will help:I suggest looking up references and art websites (here are two of my favs:https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/asaro-head-9d26548182f8465a8e97371a9170561e,https://line-of-action.com/practice-tools) and if you're using graphite pencils then maybe use different lead mines or pencils,because those are the usual culprits in shading gone wrong.The softer the lead,the more volume can be added to the drawing <3.

      My best tip for shading that really got me out of trouble is to keep it as simple as possible.The darker the shade,the more depth that section has,and the opposite with lighter spots and highlights.

      I really hope this helps,and I'm sorry if it doesn't <3.

      Byeee!

      Faces, mostly. Sorry for the late response, I didn't really get around to it. But I wanted to!

  10. Time for Episode 7 of "Shallan Stormblessed Misuses Status Updates" aka "She Just Doesn't Think The Topic She's Posting About Is Worth A New Thread"!

    So, I swear I saw an official design for Kaladin somewhere, like this one for Dalinar,

    Spoiler

    Art brief "one-sheet" for Dalinar Kholin, including front and back images of his uniform, portrait sketches of his face, and other reference images for his pose

     but for the life of me I can't find it! Does anyone know where it went?

      Huh. I could have sworn there was one as detailed as the one for Dalinar.

      It's possible I missed some. The kickstarter page is a labyrinth of posts and they might not all be on the kickstarter.

      I've... sort of combed through it... just a little... with a fine tooth comb.

  11. My new member title named after a guy who cheered me in a Cross Country race by saying my member title while holding a stuffed elephant. It was really amazing. All the other XC people, are there any other random cheers you've gotten?

    Also. 

    That hill.

    Was.

    BRUTAL.

    It was weirdly terraced? So it had flat and then really steep parts. Was painful.

      (please note that this was a random stranger, as was the elephant guy) Also someone else random cheered me on by saying "You are a 10."

      It's the random unexpected ones that help.

  12. Can we pleeeeease revive Cosmere! The Musical? It's not quite dead yet, but it doesn't deserve to die ever. I remember happy hours before I even had an account on the Shard browsing the songs. Don't leave me, thread. I love you.

    HELP ME, ONE AND ALL! PRESERVE THE BEAUTY!

    (the Scarlet Pimpernel)

      Yes, and it is one of my all time favorites. Respect+++ for the profile picture.

      Whoo thank you! You have good taste, my friend.

  14. Vibrato slowed down is hilarious. Try the main theme for Phantom of the Opera as a reference.

    Oh, and it also sounds awesome on 1.5 speed.

    Hello, I'd like to introduce my friend @I♥Kaladin4eva! Don't be mean to her(I don't think you would, but I said that anyway), and DON'T YOU DARE SPOIL ANYTHING!!!

  16. Ooh, I like your new profile picture! It needs a darker silhouette though, in my opinion.

  17. I

    Hate

    Systems

    Of

    Three

    Equations

     

    MATH IS SUCKING AWAY MY TIME

  18. I HACKED THE PIANO!!

    Okay, so actually not hacked. It's an electric piano(but it sounds pretty real), so you can transpose the key it's in! So I can play the lame All I Ask Of You sheet music in a boring different key, but it sounds like the original key! It's so cool!!! 

    Also, if you hold down the sustain pedal while you turn my piano on, all the notes are permanently sustained and stop being sustained if you press the pedal. It's fun.

    1. Kajsa

      Kajsa

      mine does that with the sustain :P 

      THAT'S COOL THOUGH

    2. S. Stormy

      S. Stormy

      I know!! I was so sad that the sheet music was in the lame key, but it sounds SO gorgeous now!

      brooo i love transposing things, my favorite thing

  19. Random question:

    Why doth thouest call me kid?

    To be clear, I'm not offended, I'm just wondering.

    Is it my dazzling immaturity? 

    Is it the truly wonderful childlike energy I give off?

    Is it the ageless quality of my profile picture?

    :P

    1. Channelknight Fadran
    2. S. Stormy

      S. Stormy

      Really? I hadn't seen anyone else get called it, which is why I asked. Truly, I didn't see that!

    3. S. Stormy

      S. Stormy

      But my profile picture does have a very ageless quality, you have to admit.

  20. So I finished Warbreaker, skipping all de sketchy parts.

    AAAAAAAAAHHHH that was a good book.

    I NEED TO REREAD ALL THE AZURE PARTS IN OATHBRINGER

    WHAT THE HECK HAPPENED THERE?

    1. The Paradoxical Phenomenon

      The Paradoxical Phenomenon

      I think that Breaths, like Hemalurgy, have huge Cosmere implications, what with the fact that anyone can have them. Well as long as you can get someone to give them to you

      I gotta say Lightsong. He's so fun!

      He... was... so fun. So interesting as well.

       

  21. The epilogue of Bands of Mourning had some intense Marvel-post-credit-scene vibes.

      Indeed, quite so.

  22. OHHH my gosh, I just looked up profile pictures then on a whim, wanting to find a random Shallan picture that would make a good profile picture...

     

    ...and MY PROFILE PICTURE CAME UP!!

    That was kind of amazing. And very unexpected.

      saaaaaaaame

      They were all awesome. 

      I found out on Wednesday that a girl from my company is in my stake.

  25. Is your Ookla Title by chance referring to the warm-up song/round that goes like

    "Black socks, they never get dirty

    The longer you wear them

    The blacker they get

    Sometimes I think I might wash them 

    But something keeps telling me

    'Don't wash them yet

    Not yet

    Not yet

    Not yet

    Not yet

    Not yet'"?

    1. Thaidakar the Ghostblood

      Thaidakar the Ghostblood

      that would've been a smart reference, but no.

      It's a reference to a gag in an rp with one of my ocs and one of @Ookla the Yellow Sock's ocs. They were trying to insult each other and Panda's called mine a black sock and then mine called hers a yellowed sock.

      It was so funny that we kept on referencing it again and again and again.

      Of course Mr. Black Sock
