The Cosmere

[stars-and-ashen-feathers]

Imagine being a knight radiant on the battlefield and the lightweaver next to you just mutters "I'm into piss" and their lightweaving gets visibly better

being as it is the domain of women, it is plausible that alethi lighteyes society has its own open secret lesbian culture which operates primarily through academia, particularly tutor/ward dynamics. being as she is way too ace for this shit, the real reason that jasnah kholin kept rejecting young women who wanted to become her ward is that she was fed up with them developing crushes on her. she gave shallan davar a chance, due to her persistence and obvious intelligence, however the poor girl is yet another in a long line of young women with hopeless crushes on the princess of alethkar. time to fob her off onto adolin before things get out of hand.

Therapists on Roshar in 50 years: oh yeah I'm trained in KBT (kaladin behavioral therapy)

[worldsingers]

your fav is problematic: kelsier

literally did everything wrong

so many people dead because of his self-righteous ass

destroyed the entirety of the pits of hathsin

probably would draw a penis on dockson while he was asleep

If Brandon wanted max mental trauma on the max number of characters, killing Adolin Kholin next book would be a real bang for his buck

hey I’m sorry but your boyfriend was killed by another god. yeah he’s dead now. he left a bunch of cryptic visions for some Alethi guy tho. yeah he lives on in the hearts of men now. sorry.

I kinda feel like the Fjordell would look at the Alethi and be like. Hey guys, how about you cool it a bit with all this war stuff?

I mean, how about that infrastructure? Maybe tighten up your whole governmental structure to something beyond a loose confederacy of dunces? Have you considered a totalitarian theocrac--ohh, ok, you have.

Imagine Hrathen having to navigate this society. He's read the Svordish sagas! He'd be trying to court the highprinces, sell them on his MLM, only to start talking about books and junk and all the Alethi would gasp in unison. Oh, what if he decided to learn how to read Alethi and become all well-read, oblivious to how scandalous he's being (well, he is some kind of foreign ardent, so maybe it's OK?), then try to engage an Alethi Fancylad in book-talk?

Hrathen would break Alethi society.

so listen, dalinar in his blackthorn era was a terrible human being in almost every conceivable way but there is a certain je ne sais quoi about him getting shot twice by an assassin at 400 yards and his first reaction is “holy shit, that rules! do you wanna be my friend?” like WOW what a guy. almost made me forget The Atrocities for a second

[fiollaigean]

NOT TO MENTION smoothly intercepting an assassination attempt at dinner, killing the guy in the blink of an eye, and taking the dagger meant for his brother’s back to cut his steak with right after. “good pork.” the swag of it all.

Okay okay now a for real important one: Most iconic line from Stormlight Archive

You cannot have my pain!

Honor is dead. But I’ll see what I can do.

We! CHOSE!

I don’t want to study. I want to be dead.

But there will be sunshine again, and that is a very different thing to say.

Journey before destination, you bastard.

I am… mostly unchained.

I am a stick.

Something else (tell me in the notes)

Vanilla extract (I haven’t read these but I want to be included)

underrated adolin moment: when he steps out in shadesmar wearing a tailored jacket he made himself and hes kinda nervous cause he didnt have much to work with and he really doesnt want kal or shallan to think hes shallow for this or anything but as soon as he steps out onto the deck everyone (mostly shallan) gives him like a standing ovation like !!!!! ur so clever!!!! ur so talented!!!! make me a skirt please!!!!

Kaladin: Truth.

Renarin: How many hours of sleep have you gotten this week?

Kaladin: Dare.

Renarin: Go to sleep.

Kaladin: I don’t like this game.

[oddly-compelled]

I had to draw this.

I love these three so much.

[kandradiction]

This is my take on the chasms of the Shattered Plains. I had an idea to paint from Kaladin’s rotated viewpoint, and I included the ‘normal’ view as well

[starling-illu]

My coloured version of @irithyllians Navani and Raboniel art! You can find the original version here 💜

This was so much fun to paint, I’d definitely be open to doing more collaborative stuff like this
