i just realized you can compare Kaladin’s lucidity after surviving the Highstorm and being on the brink of death to the bit in Fellowship of the Ring after Frodo is stabbed at Weathertop. two bros surviving what they shouldn’t have? being healed on the brink of death? hell yeah.
(except Kaladin’s bit is better i say that with no shame. do you remember how well written that scene was? goddamn okay im. Kaladin imagining himself going home to his father who’s shaking his head and saying “How did this happen? You said you wanted to become a surgeon. A surgeon . . . “ “Bridgemen weren’t supposed to survive” “How dare they? How dare they? How dare they survive by killing me!” Syl fighting off the Deathspren . . . mwah.)
