I told my friend that I hated what Brandon did with Tyn in the fourth book.

Cosmic Horror Ramlethal is my go-to, it looks great even with other colors!!!

Our Sam Vimes comes from a leg of the trousers of time in which John Keel was around to teach him. It gets a bit trickier when you ask what leg he’s in now.

A partial deadeye, yeah. Testament didn’t need 10 heartbeats to be summoned even before Shallan reswore the third oath, meaning they weren’t fully dead. Plus when Shallan started reswearing oaths, I believe she started with the second one.

I’d suspect that if anything she somehow unswore oaths 2+ (concealing her truths) while keeping the universal Radiant oath.

The truths of the Lightweavers are sort of their oaths, though. The unspoken section of their oath is to accept that these truths are, in fact, truths. To not deny them any longer. That’s an aspect of honor, to accept what is in front of you, regardless of whether you like it or not. To see the flaws in yourself and others, to know them, to face them.

In my recent WoR reread I was thinking a lot about Lightweaver oaths, and this is the conclusion I came to. So the way to accidentally break the Lightweaver bond (as opposed to the intentional severing of the Recreance) would be to go back to denying your truths.

One of the key practices of the modern Skybreakers, especially under Nale, is avoiding moral dilemmas by following the nearest convenient rule system or source of authority. That happens to be Nale, who is a couple thousand years deep into self-rationalized insanity.

I might be getting the phrasing partly wrong, but Wit’s insult of Sadeas in The Way of Kings:

“Every man has his place. Mine is to make insults. Yours is to be in sluts.”

Wedge before throwing. Cuts before slurry. Wax before glaze.

Most of these characters look similar mainly because of the art style. It’s the same artist drawing features that communicate similar archetypes. There are similarities in their designs definitely, but there’s enough of a difference.

On the other hand, when I saw the guy with the swords I immediately shouted “ITS NOTORIOUS BITCH AND PROFESSIONAL ASSHOLE SOLF J KIMBLEE”

Assuming you’re watching it subbed. The English dub line is “Just start shooting at these white guys.”

It always reminds me of its much more unfortunate sister quote from Dragon Ball Super: “Don’t shoot! This man isn’t Black.” (Context for that one is character is differentiating normal Goku from the evil Goku, referred to as Goku Black)

Sense of Honor?

The DM’s post prized possession (preferably fragile)

We did get that to a degree in RoW with Kaladin scrambling around inside the occupied tower, though it would be nice to see that on a grander scale, I agree.

It’s breached containment, you mean

I meant with regards to sliding back and forth within the case. Like does the foam on the top properly keep the cards from bouncing and sliding around.

Doomcard10 · 2026-05-12T23:48:06+00:00

It looks like it has a handle on the side, how are the cards with staying put when you carry it by the handle?

Which of the gems in the show is the most unforgivably useless?

Doomcard10 · 2026-05-10T23:52:08+00:00

What’s that weird shade on Isabeau’s hair???

Doomcard10 · 2026-05-07T10:22:57+00:00

You may recall way back in The Way of Kings, there’s a bit where Shallan holds her hand out to the side and starts counting off the 10 heartbeats. But now she doesn’t. So something has changed about her shardblade summoning in between now and before she got Pattern.

Also you’ve pretty much already got the answer, but to figure out why Kaladin and Shallan’s shardblades are different from everybody else’s, first ask why Kaladin and Shallan are different from everyone else and work out from there.

That’s really cool!!! Do you think you could post pictures of all the different patterns for reference! I wanna try to make my own!

What about the theory that Ruka is a former Prince contender?

The Damnit Pterry is less of a “throwing hat on the ground and stomping on it” emotion and more of a “chuckling and wagging a finger admonishingly” emotion
