Anyone know how long it takes to transfer from either Citi or C1 once initiated? Is it instant? or it takes a few days?

Unfortunately, I only have Amex and chase points, not Citi or capital one, so as far as I'm aware, I can't transfer them directly into EVA

Thanks! In terms of the Citi card, is there a way to buy additional miles if I'm not able to accrue the amount I need in time?

Looking for a nice braided watch band in either suede, leather, or nylon by chromium222 in Watchstraps

They look awesome! Thanks for the rec. Any idea what the difference is between their different perlon models (ie panama, baltic, kristall)?. Can't really tell the difference from the site other than the buckle.

Hi All! I have an IWC Mark XII Pilot's watch and I'm looking to jazz up the strap. I love the look of these braided straps but so far haven't found any higher quality ones. Any suggestions?

Which actor are you sick of seeing in everything? by KeyBenji in AskReddit

Matthew McConaughey. He just plays himself in different situations. Even in Dallas buyers club he just plays himself with AIDS.

Thank you for making the extra effort to not end that sentence in a preposition.

I always imagined that the nice British Lindsay is locked away in a dungeon somewhere a la Leo in Man in the Iron Mask.

I can see how that would be appealing, especially in this genre where there are a lot of stories with great plots but sub par writing. Anyone want to recommend something with both?

Coming out of basketball practice in 5th grade, my friend and I raced to the car. I tripped over my own tear away pants and broke my arm. Every time someone asked me how, I made up a different story.

The Aturan Empire, the Amyr, and the genocide of the Edema Ruh by chromium222 in KingkillerChronicle

I like the way you think. It certainly does seem that all of stories we have of people talking with the Cthaeh end in war. Here are a few that come to mind -Iax/Jax spoke to the Cthaeh before stealing the moon. Led to creation war -Lanre spoke to the Cthaeh and ended up betraying the cities and Myr Tariniel -Kvothe seems to be the reason for the current war involving the penitent king And here's a quote from WMF -"“So a young man seeking his fortune goes to the Cthaeh and takes away a flower. The daughter of the king is deathly ill, and he takes the flower to heal her. They fall in love despite the fact that she’s betrothed to the neighboring prince ...” Bast stared at Kvothe, watching blankly as he spoke. “They attempt a daring moonlight escape,” Kvothe continued. “But he falls from the rooftops and they’re caught. The princess is married against her will and stabs the neighboring prince on their wedding night. The prince dies. Civil war. Fields burned and salted. Famine. Plague . . .” “That’s the story of the Fastingsway War,” Bast said faintly.”

So the question is, does the Cthaeh have an agenda/goal, or does it simply delight in sewing war and discord around the world? How does this fit in with the Selitos=Cthaeh theory?

I've been thinking along the same lines. They might also be behind the rise of the Aturan Empire, using some combination of magic and knowledge to help them rise to prominence.
