Quitecontrary

They were meant to be made. Pouty-faced waffles with no reason for existence than to remind the consumer of his/her guilt. Warning: May have Bambi Eyes baked in. If you see tears, stop eating right away. Some naughty soul put Wafflerasium in it before popping it in the oven. Admission of guilt is not enough, Master Leftinch. One must bend itself towards reform. And it appears, with that campaign slogan (paid for by yada yada yada), reform is the farthest from your mind.

I'm afraid I'm totally guilty. I will now retreat to my kitchen and make some Shamefaced Waffles.

Your Majesty, the Wafflesworn try to work with sticks as little as possible. They are stubborn things with an aversion to fire. However, we will attempt to make a Waffle on a stick for you if this is what you wish. Instead of covering it in chocolate, we will give you the pleasure of doing that by giving you a chocolate fondue with a batch of waffle sticks.

I hereby accept your application to the Wafflesworn. We dare not let such a Dark Lord as yourself slip from our grasp. It would be as if Vin never joined Kelsier's gang. Or Kaladin never joined Dalinar's. Utterly unthinkable.

A legitimate Son, I hope? Because thy actions speak otherwise. Like thou hath forgotten the face of thy father (Dark Tower reference).

Influence? The only influence I wield in here is inside the kitchens, which you aren't privy to. I will stop calling you boy when you stop acting like it. And since you have stopped crying, then I acknowledge your maturity now. Mistress of the Wafflesworn Kitchens means one thing - an honorary member of the Women's Circle. You know what that means.

How about a waffle bubble to protect us during our travels in the Syrup Pool? Our sleeves must not get soiled! Our aprons must stay pristine. But yeah, that pales in comparison to the flying spaceship waffles. (Now I'm in the mood to cook some!)

What a mockery thou hath made of loyalty, Sir Quiver, when thou still call thyself Knave. Knave of the highest order, unscrupulous to the core. The Wafflesworn are loyal to Chaos and Mayhem, by virtue of the Syrup Storm, but we never attempt to sway one who hath pledged to another clan, to join our ranks. That thou hath done so now, that thou dareth to persuade our true Scadrian Waffle Cook, who brings sexy to all things waffle, is an affront indeed. Our services are open to Newcago Court, but not to thou, Sir Quiver, Sower of Discord. Our kitchens are closed to thy Machiavellian scheming, and will stay closed till thou hath vowed to reform. *said with one hand on hip, and much spatula waving* -- EDIT: Aaand, my rambling was for naught. Awesome has moved to the rank of Returned. The decision now lies with him if he will stay with The Wafflesworn even at such an esteemed stature.

Aaand looks like he did! Because of this, my decision has tipped in your favor Awesome! Oh and can you make a symbol for Wafflerasium? Pleeeaaase!!! There surely are. We are fortunate to have so much talent to choose from.

Trust your instinct. It won't lead you astray. Remember your life goal - Scadrian Waffle Cook - Achieved, Passed, Missed. The Wafflesworn will let you beat at your batter with all the hate in your heart, and our punished Accepted will make sure that no batch will ever ever deviate from your recipe. I'm afraid, Master Leftinch, that not all Wafflesworn recipes are catalogued. Our cooks always hold something back, so if you try to replicate our amazing waffle dishes, it will never taste the same. It's the Wafflesworn's prerogative - to keep the secret ingredient to the Secret Ingredient Waffle a well-guarded secret.

Ooooooh, choices! I love choices. Maple syrup or honey? Cinnamon or confectioner's sugar? All purpose or wheat flour? Awesomeness or Panda? Both talented, and captured the waffle essence in a beautiful emblem. We have Panda and his logo which brought about the treaty of peace, waffle irons and all. We have Awesomeness, the true Scadrian Waffle Cook, bringing the sexy to the waffle. Which to choose???

With most 17th sharders finding their way here through the Wheel of Time, it's refreshing to find one who's yet to read the series. The Eye of the World normally don't hold a lot of fascination for most readers, but being of an older generation, I truly enjoyed it the first time I read it. There was nothing like WoT in its time. So you got it right on some points, and on some, you're waaaay off. But congratulations on completing the first book of such an influential series.

The Wafflesworn kitchen (full of punished Accepted and Novices) are at your service, Princess Delightful. We are ready when you are. Wasing the telling of marching of the when.

There, there...you can bloody stop crying now. See? I made you honeycakes in the shape of foxhead medallions. Wipe those tears, wash your hands, and get yourself on the table with the Princess, like the good boy you are.

Good point. It looks to me that you are preparing for it now. Newcago Court is teeming with choco ice cones and a large delivery of chocolates is on its way.

Alas, the decision to march to Roshar does not lie on my shoulders, but to Ashiok, Highprince of Sugar, and Kobold King, Highprince of Cutlery. I am with you on this idea, though. So many wars fought, and all because they lack that one magical thing that can iron out all differences. Oh, wait...but won't we be bringing peace then, in the form of chocolate??? Won't that affect the sequels??? *gasp*

Yes, I believe he said it a long time ago in a Q&A here. See Question #9.

Wow, you are oh-so-suddenly sought after, Master Aether. With this, we would like to offer: The Fifth Wafflement The one-of-a-kind waffle to be enjoyed in any plane - astral, aetheric, or physical. Made of the highest grade batter from the dark side, and whipped to perfection with focused hate, it gives an aroma of power like no other waffle can. One whiff of this fresh, off-the-griddle waffle will make your mouth water, with its dark chocolate chip topping, and sugary crust. Side effects: Makes one want to nibble someone's toes. Not available in Roshar as there is no chocolate there. (WOB)

Only an oath in response to this: DO YOU SWEAR TO CREATE CHAOS IN THE NAME OF THE WAFFLE? -- Your expertise in crafting the dark side of the batter with consistency will be useful to have. In any case, batter is neither created nor destroyed, only transformed into delectable waffle. This vial of Wafflerasium is for you.

No PM group, but you can find the Wafflesworn here.

A pleasant accord indeed. I will derail this thread a bit by extending an invitation for you to join The Wafflesworn then - a clan dedicated to good food and mayhem! As Master of Lists, you will find joy in listing the various waffle recipes we've made for a select clientele - Queen Elsa, Princess Delightful, Brightlady Feather - among others. -- On another note, skaa did send me the PM exactly as he said he would. How can one resist?

That is exactly what they are made for. It can get tedious at times since it's all syrupy nonsense. Of course, because of Crystal's challenge, we are now infusing our waffleborns with an infiltration formula at birth, and converting them into Trojan Waffles. (Price on Request)

Red-orange or burnt sienna shades will be fantastic. Thanks!

Mine is pretty obvious, since my name is Mary. I used to be called Iron Maiden at work. No, I'm not that scary, but a moniker that was from a nursery rhyme based on Queen Bloody Mary seemed appropriate. Been using it for more than a decade.

We don't eat the sentient waffleborn, if that's what you're asking. We only keep them for their entertaining wit, and companion in our lonely travels. We only frown upon squeamishness in eating representations of one's own kind. After all, you wouldn't object to eating a plateful of snowflake-shaped waffles, would you? -- Lightsworn Panda, we do not frown upon you, for you have gifted us with an emblem, and we have an uneasy peace.
