#Adolin is so good

[swagspren]

Finding out how old Adolin is after seeing him kill a bunch of guys at war is so “25 years old? He should have been at the club!!” Because Adolin would love the club. But finding out Kaladin is 20 is just. I don’t know. 20 years old ?? He should have been telling his friends at college that smoking isn’t cool or something

I finished wind and truth and !!!!!!!!!!! everything is so fucked but also somehow way better than I expected. Kal and syl and adolin and shallan are all alive thank god. If those four don’t get to go out for drinks sometime in the back half of the series I’m gonna riot

*gasps*

Mr. Sanderson, this was hardly subtle!

Also, despite the joyspren, I still refuse to believe the shower sex was actually enjoyable. I can suspend my disbelief for Surges and magical healing but good shower sex? Mr. Sanderson, sir, that is where I draw the line!

holy shit jasnah just betrothed shallan and ADOLIN?? smh adolin buddy you're going to have to prove yourself to me bc i don't know if you're worthy of her yet

[isdalinarhot]

did i like wind and truth? girl i dont know. ive been surrounded by people who both hate it completely and who think its the best book in the series. and the people who hate it hate it for stupid reasons like "kadolin dont interact much" and "they used early 19th century technology in this book series thats roughly at late 18th century technology" but i cannot deny that when i finished wind and truth i felt miserable. i dont like a book ending on an everything-is-horrible ending when theres gonna be a 7 year hiatus before the next one comes out. thats my big complaint.

Lol seeing a post about how people who like moash are all "moash did nothing wrong". As one of those moash enjoyers I think I can definitively say that anyone who is saying that is just fucking around and very much know his crimes. Counterpoint - Dalinar, Kaladin, Jasnah, Adolin, and Shallan have all done crimes that would warrant jailtime.

I've talked about this before but I really do think here on tumblr people can explore the paths less traveled in terms of character study. Sanderson has literally said he's not too much of a fan of moash but I think it's cool how you have people on here who show him a little more love. You take a character that has gone through the worst and has a literal evil god influencing him but I think he falls under the "would be entirely right if he didn't kill people" liberal leftist antagonist that gets pretty annoying to constantly see. When in the real world violence is a valid form of protest you have these constant depictions of people lashing out against their oppressors as a bad thing it's understandable to be a little annoyed with how moash is depicted.

Not to mention the tragic aspect is kind of cool too??? Not everyone is going to get redemption, some people make bad decisions and fuck up and won't make it out and it's cool to enjoy that aspect. I enjoy a nice tragic character foil - there's some real nice fanart too of him.

Adolin Cosplay Update! #3!!

not quite done but really darn close

the sword is actually a twirling saber so i will be able to do tricks!

image descriptions under cut

ID: [ in both photos a person (me) is in the same outfit, except in the second they have boots on rather than socks. they wear a poofy blue shirt with white lace at the cuffs and neckline. the cuffs of the shirt are wide and tight around their forearms. the person also wears a darker blue vest with gold buttons and gold trim on the bottom. their pants are an almost black navy and they wear two belts. one is a sword belt with a hole for a blade, in that stirrup is a thin white and black saber. the second is a chain with charms that are hard to see except for the large sword. the boots are reddish brown and high heeled, the same color as the belt.]

Finished Day Three. Onto the Interludes and then Day Four!

Love to reread the Greatshell hunt with Elhokar in WoK it is so family get together like adolin and renarin are hanging back and talking shit. Dalinar is reminiscing about ‘when he was elhokars age’ and elhokar misreading the room left and right and everyone is tired of it and there is a giant crab that almost kills your cousin etc

[femmefaggot]
