OOC Blog Info

Hello! Here's some OOC blog housekeeping stuff-

The Dalinar content I post is just for fun, and not canon or meant to be taken as serious life advice

Sometimes I fuck up and post something without thinking how it could be interpreted. If so- please let me know so I can take it down!

You're more than welcome to send in asks! I love getting them. (I may not reply to all of them

My personal headcanons definitely impact how I write Dalinar. He's not going to be perfectly in character in this blog. It's a meme blog. It's meant to be kinda silly <3

Most posts are from Oathbringer-era Dalinar, but sometimes I just write what comes to mind. The timeline is very flexible. I can't write much post-WaT content for Dalinar for uh, reasons, so I post a little from everywhere.

Everyone always talks about "You Cannot Have My Pain," and with good reason, but I think this is my favourite Dalinar moment

[image ID: A Screenshot of The Way of Kings by Brandon Sanderson. The text reads:

“What is a man’s life worth?” Dalinar asked softly.

“The slavemasters say one is worth about two emerald broams,” Kaladin said, frowning.

“And what do you say?”

“A life is priceless,” he said immediately, quoting his father.

Dalinar smiled, wrinkle lines extending from the corners of his eyes. “Coincidentally, that is the exact value of a Shardblade. So today, you and your men sacrificed to buy me twenty-six hundred priceless lives. And all I had to repay you with was a single priceless sword. I call that a bargain.”

I'm not sure why people drink yellow wine when purple is a much better option

Update: the ardents and Jasnah Kholin are furious with me

It is impressive you managed to get both. On the bright side you probably have Dalinar's approval.

Every day is a battle to better yourself, and your inner demons are often your worst enemy

I'm still trying to figure out where on Roshar Elhokar found such a strange Wit

He's... unsettling, at times.

Why don't people listen to me anymore?

It's not that big of a deal to completely change the way we run our armies

Stormlight responses to "If you kill a murderer..."

Lirin: If you kill a murderer, the number of murderers in the world remains unchanged.

Nale: Incorrect. "Murder" refers to an unlawful killing, and I AM the Law. Therefore I am incapable of being a murderer.

Szeth: No, the surgeon is right. Killing stains the soul. Even killing a murderer. Even killing in defense of your own life. You are irrevocably broken by the act, so you might as well just keep killing, and killing, and killing, and killing...

Kaladin: I... I can't quite articulate why, but I don't think that's right. Any of you.

Dalinar: Why would I kill a murderer? A murderer is just a man who has yet to take the next step on his journey. *watching Taravangian ascend to evil godhood* Any minute now...

Adolin, a Chad and a King: Alright, fine. If I kill a murderer, the number of murderers remains unchanged. But you know what does drop precipitously? The number of future victims! If that makes me a murderer, then so be it.

Jasnah: A noble sentiment, but you misunderstand the problem. It is not a question of ethics, but of mathematics. I killed four murderers on my way here, thus dropping the total number of murderers by three.

Moash: Oh sure, it's cool and badass when she, a royal, does it. But when I kill a murderer who the law was never going to touch...

Shallan: *looks up from counting on her fingers* Jasnah, how do you account for the new alter you create to cope with the guilt? Wouldn't that still put you at an unchanged number of murderers?

Renarin: ... Why are all of your alters murderers?!
