Cosmere Characters as People You Might See on the Bus
If you saw Cosmere characters on the bus, I think this is what the experience might be like.
Steris: The person who has her bus pass or exact change ready to go, and then spends the rest of the trip side-eyeing people who wait until they get to the driver before digging around in their bags.
Moash: Is polite to the bus driver and 100% ready to throw down with anyone who tries to be rude to them.
Vasher: The scruffy guy in the back of the bus who is potentially homeless and probably drunk.
Jasnah: Leaves her purse on the seat next to her so long as their are open seats anywhere else on the bus.
Tress: Slides as far sideways she can to leave as much room as possible for whoever might sit next next to her.
Adolin: Cheerfully man-spreads, it's true, but will also be the first to offer his seat to the elderly.
Kaladin: Guy who always stands even when there are open seats available. You've privately dubbed him "handsome standing bus guy."
Elhokar: Person who seems nervous to be on a public bus and is fuguratively clutching his pearls at anyone who seems unwell or (gasp!) poor.
Wayne: Has made 19 new best friends by chatting to whoever sits next to him.
Lopen: Has made 17 new best friends and 2 forever enemies by chatting to whoever sits next to him.
Dilaf: The person who won't stop talking loudly about religion. People are pretending not to see or hear him.
Vin: The person who brings her much-too-large dog onto the bus with her.
Shallan: A magnet for men who want to find a magic pixie dream girl, since she is wearing headphones and sketching. This dream lasts until they see what Shallan is drawing.
Nikaro: The person who stares morosely out the window for the whole ride. Works best when it's raining.
Elend: What is a bus trip other than time to read?
Navani: What is a bus trip other than time to work on research notes?
Lightsong: What is a bus trip other than time to nap? Yes, he misses his stop a lot.
Hoid: The bus driver.
