Characters bonded with spren will have you shouting at them to hurry up with their character development so they can reach level thirty and unlock their spren's tragic backstory and adjacent lore like they're some kind of trainer-pokémon pair meets otome game character

Sadeas was an evil wife guy.

Let me explain. For the longest time, I never understood why Sadeas reacted so strongly to Wit joking about him sleeping around. He's clearly very securely monogamous. His wife is an excellent court politician with the most extensive spy network and a deft manipulator. They're both geniuses united in ruthless ambition. The only person one trusts completely is the other.

But that's the thing. All the things that make Ialai so beautiful to him aren't readily apparent to the public. He himself admits she's not conventionally attractive. She's not very highly placed and comes from a family that's tacky enough to give her a perfectly symmetrical name. A lot of people probably think he had to marry low because he was considered a backwater warlord when they got together. He's probably heard a million jokes about it.

He probably heard a joke about him sleeping around as Wit calling her ugly and "HOW DARE YOU YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT A WONDERFUL MASTERMIND SHE IS DO YOU KNOW HOW LUCKY I AM????!!!"

The true meaning of friendship is sharing meals together.

In hindsight "oh btw I'm fucking your mom" was an insane way to end Way of Kings.

I am obsessed with the IDIC symbol. I'm well aware that it was introduced as a cash grab, but in-universe it is such a giant FU from our petty bitch king Spock. Think ab how Surak theorized an "infinite diversity infinite combinations" state of mind. But then Vulcans are xenophobic as fuck. Spock wearing the IDIC symbol as a necklace, a constant reminder to Vulcans that he embodies Surak's teachings more than they do, is the most "fuck you" behavior I can conceive.

Also, Spock using the IDIC symbol as a giant glittery mural in his Enterprise quarters is the most gay thing you will ever see in your life.

One trope that will always get me is when people give Shallan a Mom figure. Sometimes it’s Navani (sometimes it’s even Jasnah) but like, really, imagine the bond growing between Shallan and Navani. And Shallan realizing all the things that moms are supposed to do or say.

Getting a hug from Navani, who met Shallan as the teenager who brought her daughter’s death while betrothed to her nephew. Healing the guilt of their first interaction through emotional scholarly bonding the way Navani always wanted from Jasnah. Veil gossiping to Navani while Radiant helps her plan lab schedules, while Shallan sits and lets the realization wash over her that she is loved, truly and unconditionally, by a parent. idk maybe it’s just me but that shit squeezes my heart to bits
