oh, the horrors...

here to go even more insane tbh /// don't kill the part of you that's cringe, kill the part that cringes

Artfight is actually pretty fun, turns out, if you don't like drawing digitally you can...just not? Do a little traditional painting! Throw in a zesty little mixed-media while you're at it!

Still fighting my way through Mistborn: The Final Empire, but now with the fun addition that every time something painfully heteronormative or a very basic fantasy trope appears, I add a new queer headcannon about the lord ruler in my mind

Haven't seen the guy (gender neutral) on page yet, so all's free game to me, maybe he is a he/him lesbian, maybe he used to be in a big polycule, maybe he had a gay situationship, who knows

[clawinthenight]

I can excuse weird pacing in Mistborn: The Final Empire, I can excuse some basic tropes, but I draw the line at French names

What is Elend if not Y/N, going to parties just to read, wearing a messy bun- I mean slightly messy clothes, and while I don't know much about his father yet he does have the vibes as if he would sell his son to One Direction

Stormlight AU where Aesudan survives the Siege of Kholinar, is no longer possessed (but still has some body horror side-effects, but that's neither here nor there) and makes it to Urithiru with Gavinor, and while she doesn't like her girlfailure (late?) husband, she will still bully Wit for abandoning Elhokar over Jasnah like the mean lesbian she is

[clawinthenight]

Just started reading Mistborn and I can't wait to see more of *looks at smudged writing* Vin Diesel and her love interest -Misery Adventure?

[clawinthenight]

Love Island but it's actually just the Heralds on their therapy retreat post WaT, so we still have the exact same dramaaa, but instead of trying to become influencers they find their will to live again

(and then they all fall at least a little in love with Kaladin, but bc he canonically does not date patients, it becomes another motivation to feel better and win the race for Kaladin's affections)

[clawinthenight]

Yes, "The Bride!" has some heavy themes of identity, consent, etc,,,, but also leading female characters make sapphic brain go brrr

[clawinthenight]

Shallan/Adolin/Kaladin became so powerful they had to be contained in three different realms or the power of polyamory would have clashed with Odium so strongly they would've created another Ashyn

[clawinthenight]

What is "The Bride!" (2026, dir. Maggie Gyllenhall) if not the the continuation with more mature themes of "Lisa Frankenstein" (2024, dir. Zelda Williams), the Frankenstein weird girls are eating well lately

[clawinthenight]

about to start reading Dawnshard soon, and those bug piles and dawning shards better be cool and interesting enough to even slightly make up for Rysn's chapter in WaT basically being "hey I will make sure that the technologies I am selling not only go towards the war effort but also help develop some sick ass mobility aids and because such things often get overlooked by people in positions of power i will personally-" just to have Wit crash her meeting with a quick "heyyy, you actually need to leave the planet or you might literally explode <3"

[clawinthenight]

what is Kaladin if not depressed sonic

[clawinthenight]

something I fear the stormlight adaptation probably won't deliver on but what I'd love to see is the insane lighting in Roshar

wdym most of the light sources (especially in places like palaces etc.) are colorful gemstones? (and they often aren't even divided by color per room? you have like red, green and blue light sources in a single room??)

wdym the moons each have a funky color?

wherever Adolin walks there is bisexual lighting but I fear they'll be too cowardly to actually commit to the bit

[clawinthenight]

still salty we didn't get to see the Kaladin and Shallan roadtrip to Thaylen City in Oathbringer

[clawinthenight]

was anyone going to tell me that the traditional Alethi takama is not just a funky skirt but also

💫✨ tits out ✨💫

or was I just supposed to find that out myself when Gavilar describes Dalinar's chest hair in WaT's prologue???

Noooo, Kaladin, don't say goodbye to all your friends and family in a heart-felt manner and say how content you are right before embarking on an epic quest in a far-away land, noooo, Kaladin, don't pull the dead wife trope, don't pull the side character about to die so bad trope, nooo, you're too sexy, haha
