so if a kandra inhabits a body, to what degree is that body alive? would a kandra be able to use a human body to have human children (like if they were impersonating someone who was known to want a family over a long period of time)? tbf maybe they would just avoid that entirely, they are pretty crafty

my stormlight oc, lore, and her mistspren, khiteas, in his lance form

being a mistborn fan has changed the way I look at metals and rocks. just saw a magical rock from a comic I like and my first thought was "I wonder what powers you could get if ate and burned part of that rock"

Did... did Tanavast choose his ship name as his new identity when he Ascended? Because Rayse kept calling him Tanner and like Tanner + Koravellium Avast = Tanavast

Was this man that down bad that he Renesmeed himself??

PSA, Kaladin and Adolin both have HUNDREDS of times bigger kill count than Shallan.

Brandon Sanderson: Fantasy vs. Sci-Fi

Almost all of BrandoSando's books straddle the line between the two genres, and after seeing @approximateknowledge's post here, I wondered how they would lay out on that chart. I was also inspired by this fascinating WOB about Skyward's genre. These are just my opinions, so let me know if you agree or what you think you'd change!

Can you explain the vin and kaladin thing? Cause I’m intrigued.

I can just do it

[miss-madithe-baddie]

I am OBSESSED with the parallel story arcs of Venli and Dalinar. Mildly jealous sibling who is heavily influenced by Odium and will do anything to satisfy their own desires? And then is traumatized by their own actions? And will do anything to make things better?? Even if they don’t know what those things ARE????? That’s the SHIT my dude

[idlyx]

okay so we know that Stormfather told both Gavilar and Dalinar to Unite them, but we never figured out what exactly they were supposed to unite. What if 'Unite them' is just his Intent?

So does Patterns dick also turns, morfs and vibrates?

I’m reading Sunlit Man, and I have many questions that make me think I should have read Wind and Truth first

(I really want to read it, but I’m waiting for the mass market paperback so all of my stormlight books match)

My opinion on the matter in as few words as possible and why I want Moash to persist as a character through the second half of the series.

[libralita]

So, since Roshar is experiencing some wibbly wobbly timey wimey bullshit does that mean that when Era 2 wraps up, only like a year has passed? Has anyone figured out the math on this? This timeline reveal is so wild, Brandon's so sneaky.

This is not at all what should be going through my mind in this moment but... does Marsh blink too? Or are his spikes more "out there"?

I miss him and I love him

Scene from Stormlight AU Number 8

Sigzil: Hm. Fascinating.

Kaladin: What? Does something look wrong?

Sigzil: No, nothing it's just...when shardplate is regrown, the lost pieces from it crumble to dust.

Kaladin: I — wait, you mean my cut off leg? You were watching my leg to see if it — Sigzil, I'm not shardplate.

Skar: Prince Adolin said that you could regrow a whole suit from one gauntlet, if you had to. We didn't want to leave stormlight near the, uh cut off bit. Just in case it affected your healing, you know?

Kaladin: what?

Lopen: Ooh! We should try now and see if it works! Think about it — two Captain Kaladins!

Kaladin: Again, and I can't believe I have to say this, I'm not made of shardplate. My leg won't regrow another me.

Lopen: Are you sure?

Kaladin: I—

Sigzil: It is not as though we've tested your healing abilities in such extreme conditions.

Kaladin:

Lopen: I'll get some more spheres!

Kaladin: We're not testing it!

Sigzil: Captain, please, I agree it's unlikely to work but think of the implications—

Kaladin: Give me — give me storming leg!

Adolin: Bridgeboy! You've made it back then, my Father and I — I what's... going on here?

Skar: Science, sir!

Kaladin: Princeling, I need a moment to discipline my men — Sigzil! Get back here! that's an order!

Sigzil: You ordered me to assist in testing your capabilities! If you wish to modify your prior order I will need a written —

Kaladin: Sigzil!

Lopen: Got the spheres! Teft says if it works then you better each start taking less shifts!

Adolin: Is that a leg? Ash's eyes, is that your leg, I had heard that one of the crews found...but —

Kaladin: I said hold on I— Lopen don't you dare!

Adolin: That is...some healing. Wow. You know shardplate, the missing piece crumbles to dust when—

Skar: That's what I said, sir!

Adolin: ...Do you think if you gave stormlight to the —

Sigzil: Lopen! Over here!

Kaladin: I AM NOT A SUIT OF SHARDPLATE AND WE ARE NOT TESTING IT!
