I’ve been wanting to draw Kvothe since I began to read The Name of the Wind, so once I began I couldn’t stop, he’s too pretty *-*

Kvothe (The Kingkiller Chronicle)

I was allowed to redesign his appearance but I hope I didn’t stray too far away from his original description in the books. To everyone who visited my test livestream of this few days ago, thank you so much for stopping by, but I’m so sorry I changed a lot of things after that. And I’ll show something more interesting in the future (maybe like painting a portrait or naked people….. -_-)

Kvothe: omg one time i tried to learn a language and i took me almost a WEEK i was so embarrassed

Kvothe: wow i can't believe I'm only Re'lar i mean I'm 15 and I've been at the university ALMOST. A WHOLE. YEAR how have i only managed to get two ranks into this highly-selective arcane order this is just not good enough

Kvothe: oh god i can't believe it has actually taken me SEVERAL DAYS to conceive of and complete this insanely complex invention of great value to humanity I'm feeling so humiliated right now

everyone else:

everyone else: yeah no sorry what was that

everyone else: because all I heard was 'my name is Kvothe and I am a ridiculously proud, perfectionistic, overachieving sack of shit please punch me'

OKAY SO THIS THEORY IS PRETTY RIDICULOUS. BUT. What if the Chandrian are somehow essential to this world? They may or may not be malfeasant, but without them, the world would collapse. Kvothe, of course, wouldn't know this. What if he, by killing one or more of the Chandrian, inadvertently caused the shitstorm that's been happening over Temerant?

TO KKC FANDOM

As a person who studies latin I just want to inform you all about the meaning of Temerant  (previously known as the “Four Corners”).

Temerant in latin is the third person plural of the present indicative of temero. Temero means dishonor, disgrace, violate… So Temerant means ‘they dishonor/disgrace/violate” 

Some theories about this?

I handed her a violet, its color dark as her eyes. She smiled at me and ate it.

Auri by Beth Sobel

[not-a-clever-lettuce-blog]

“Auri hopped down from the chimney and skipped over to where I stood, her hair streaming behind her. “Hello Kvothe.” She took a half-step back. “You reek.” I smiled my best smile of the day. “Hello Auri,” I said. “You smell like a pretty young girl.” "I do," she agreed happily. She stepped sideways a little, then forward again, moving lightly on the balls of her bare feet. “What did you bring me?” she asked. "What did you bring me?" I countered. She grinned. “I have an apple that thinks it is a pear,” she said, holding it up. “And a bun that thinks it is a cat. And a lettuce that thinks it is a lettuce.” "It’s a clever lettuce then." "Hardly," she said with a delicate snort. "Why would anything clever think it was a lettuce?" "Even if it is a lettuce?" I asked. "Especially then," she said. "Bad enough to be a lettuce. How awful to think you are a lettuce too." She shook her head sadly, her hair following the motion as if she were underwater. I unwrapped my bundle. “I brought you some potatoes, half a squash, and a bottle of beer that thinks it is a loaf of bread.” "What does the squash think it is?" she asked curiously, looking down at it. She held her hands clasped behind her back "It knows it’s a squash," I said. "But it’s pretending to be the setting sun." "And the potatoes?" she asked. "They’re sleeping," I said. "And cold, I’m afraid." She looked up at me, her eyes gentle. “Don’t be afraid,” she said, and reached out and rested her fingers on my cheek for the space of a heartbeat, her touch lighter than the stroke of a feather. “I’m here. You’re safe.”  ― Patrick Rothfuss, The Wise Man’s Fear

We understand how dangerous a mask can be. We all become what we pretend to be.

Patrick Rothfuss, The Name of the Wind (via quoted-books)

    "Women are better fighters?" I asked carefully, not wanting to contradict her.      “Generally speaking,” she said matter-of-factly. “There are exceptions, of course, but on the whole women are better.”      “But men are stronger,” I said. “Taller. They have better reach.”      She turned to look at me, slightly amused. “Are you stronger and taller than me then?”      I smiled. “Obviously not. But as a whole, you have to admit, men are bigger and stronger.”      Vashet shrugged. “And that would matter if fighting were the same as splitting wood or hauling hay. That is like saying a sword is better the longer and heavier it is. Foolishness. Perhaps for thugs this is true. But after taking the red, the key is knowing when to fight. Men are full of anger, so they have trouble with this. Women less so.”      I opened my mouth, then thought of Dedan and closed it.
