Calling back to earlier in the conversation (I didn’t read the entire thing, so if I say something that has already been said, I apologize), VirtuousTraveler said all the Cosmere connections felt heavy handed. I respect your opinion, but in the Words of Brandon he said the he had decided to put them in all the time. He said that he used to feel worried about how some people would react when he put in all those connections, but now he doesn’t worry about that. I personally feel like he did really well. As to how you feel about Wayne, yeah, he is a little bit much sometimes, and some of the jokes are juvenile, but I feel like that might have been intentional. He’s going through a lot, and I think this is part of how that character might deal with it.
