"You're... you're as surprising as a... dancing donkey, Mister Cravat"

"I killed her again"
Wax and Lassie in the end of the second book of Mistborn Era 2, damn this scene really got my heart, and the image that came into my head was the saddest thing, that reminded me of the piece “Ivan the Teribble and His Son”, and so I used it as reference.
The last part of the epilogue of Wax and Steris is a scene that is also very touching and I want to do a piece from that part...
Everything my younger brother knows about the Cosmere from my yapping about it
(and also from me including hemalurgy in our ttrpg campaign)
All of this is in his words; I handed him my phone and told him to write whatever he knew about the cosmere. He's read Brandon's Alcatraz series but that's it. Now behold:
spook hates electrons
kelsier the kiwi knight has negative aura
vin is stoopid
spook hates light
kelsier the kiwi man plays fortnite
yumi paints nightmares
hemmalurgy should be banned and is the process of stabbing a guy, then stabbing yourselfwith the same spike to gain some randos unnaturally good health
burning aluminum takes away all ur metals
tress is an emerald sea
ferrochemmy exists
mr sands is really good at writing and one of the fastest authors alive
saizid is sus
vin is weak as hell and uses fragile, cowardly stupid brittle, utterly useless, overpriced, dumb ahh obsidian daggos (didnt deserve the r or the e)-2
mist borns are little timmys born in mist
waxillium melts
wax and wauiyné are stoopid
christosphere is a normal civillian
ppl love metals like titanium
stormlight archive is a stormy stack of goofy ahh books amout metalurrgy
So I’m in the process of rereading mistborn era 2. I have memories of this being some of the best cosmere writing yet.
In retrospect, it’s kind of disturbing. The fights, magic system, everything is so excellent. The overtly pro-establishment main character doesn’t age as well.
Wax literally breaks a strike protest in the second book saying “they have a right to their grievances but they aren’t allowed to block roadways.” Brandon my buddy my pal my oldest friend how do you think protests work?
Mistborn characters <3 the green haired one w horns is MeLaan (and ofc the short man is Wayne <3) not all of them worked out that well but i think the second one really looks like Steris, and the 4th one is SO Marasi :D 5th one is pretty nice Wax too ig
I knew his sister was full of shit. I immediately did not like her ass.
Also I had to stop reading last night because my bf needed to go to bed and it was right after Wax died! Now I am 99% sure Wax is in fact not actually dead or will be brought back by the Bands of Mourning because he's the main fucking character and there is a whole another book left in this series but also this is Brandon Sanderson and I can't help but have some Kelsier PTSD.
I got a few things to do today before I continue reading but I should have this one finished and on to The Lost Metal by the end of the day.
Also I really like Allik but I'm trying not to get attached because I will be surprised if he makes it out of this book alive.
