  1. THE DECENTLY TALL HILL!!!!
  2. Near the same spot where his son died (Near the same spot where my son died)
  3. YES TPBM prefers running shoes to sneakers
  4. Hello, hello, hello! It is wonderful to meet you, and I would love to hear more about your story. Also, what have been some of your favourite moments in Stormlight, so far?
  5. Why, thank you, both for the rating and the welcome! ♾ (The symbolic depth of the Turtle)/1 (The symbolic shallowness of the flat, physical world)
  6. Granted. The cookie is not spiked, but the mouse is. Hemallurgically. Possessing superhuman strength and a terrible temper, the mouse wolfs (mouses?) down the cookie, then turns to face its next meal. You. I wish for a cozy mug of tea and a good book on a cold, winter evening.
  7. You captured my exact thoughts more eloquently than I could ever have managed! I would also like to point out, regarding representation, that Brandon Sanderson has stated that he is holding off on making trans characters more involved and developed in his books until he feels more confident in his ability to respectfully portray them (I would cite the WoB if I had more time), and Masaka is very good practice for this ability, as she deals with similar emotions/thought patterns without the more 'sensitive' trans context, while, at the same time, avoiding queerbaiting. (Sorry if this is a little disjointed; some IRL stuff is making me feel a bit more scattered than usual)
  8. I would love to be shardbuddies! I have not gotten around to making my signature yet, but I certainly will now!
  9. Hello, and welcome to the shard! What has been your favourite Cosmere book so far?
  10. Well hello! I am indeed a nerd, with my specialties including theatre, books, creative writing, math, chemistry, biology, languages, Excel spreadsheets, and any form of tabletop strategy and roleplaying games. I have minimal social skills, but I learned how to pretend otherwise through a little class called "Acting". Aside from that, every aspect of the above definition applies to me, and I wouldn't have it any other way. Nerds are great! That is all. (Also, one of the nerdiest things I ever did was graph the first 100 Hailstone sequences to 100 places. For fun. They made some very pretty slope distributions! )
  11. Kiss Luthadel, marry Urithiru, kill Elendel Whimsy, Valour, Mercy
  12. Fisher, Catherine
  13. "Fly, you goats!" -Gandalf "Life, liberty, and the pursuit of goats" -The American Constitution (I think...it was one of those important American documents, anyway) "Sometimes a goat is just a man who is in the process of changing" -Dalinar "I should have known the goat was wide enough for Hamilton and me" -Aaron Burr, "Hamilton" "Mmmm...goats" -Pattern
  14. Dark vests over white shirts with the sleeves rolled up? YES. 100%/Is this aspect of the early 1900's really worth bringing back?
  15. smiting depression, enemy cheeses, and
  16. Proof: While there are officially 10 types of pancakes in Yeddaw, one of them is imaginary, meaning that there are actually nine of them...just like the Unmade. Furthermore, when Lift eats a pancake and converts it into Lifelight, she is essentially Unmaking it, as she is changing it into Investiture that will serve her...just like Raboniel tries to do to the Sibling. Now, given that Lift is the only person in the entire Cosmere who can create Pancake Unmade, she must be the most Connected to the Intent of "Pancake", meaning that, when Odium inevitably splinters the Shard of Pancakes, it is pretty much guaranteed that Lift will Ascend to take this position. Theory: The character "16", from Lasting Integrity, is Adonalsium in disguise.
  17. Granted. However, you must also hold the responsibility of the sun in the palm of your hand. Essentially, you are always blamed for anything sun-related, including sunburns, poor seasonal weather, and, worst of all, daylight savings. I wish for a musical theatre adaptation of every major Cosmere story.
  18. "Sandwiches only grow better as they age," buzz several hundred flies in singsong unison as they land on the sandwich. "And biohazards just make life yummier for the Seventeenth Swarm!"
