I only read this much of chapter 14 of Wind and Truth and had to pause to make this meme 😂

HE DID IT!!

Wind and Truth SPOILERS I love seeing Brandon Sanderson writing so openly about characters having intimate relationships! Shadolin moments in these last chapters were so perfect and wonderful and let me with a broad smile in the face.

ahem But okay Brandon, now it's the turn for Renarin and Rlain to shine too! Yeah, it's too soon for a very intimate scene between them but give us at least a scene of them both talking or holding hands, or blushing! Something! I need to see my babies getting a wholesome scene together before Roshar ends up destroyed or conquered by Odium.

I'm soooo ready to see Rlain and Renarin holding hands while Shallan is in the background drawing them and their sprens and Pattern are whispering "oh I ship them, they should get married".

Propaganda

Ser Jaime Lannister, Game of Thrones (2011-2019) Portrayed by: Nikolaj Coster-Waldau

“Okay, yes, he is an asshole who fucks his sister and pushes children out of windows, but we can fix him! Deep down he's just a lost little meow meow who doesn't know anything but fighting and family. But the more he's exposed to the outside world, the more he sees the error of his ways and tries to do better. And what's hotter than a redemption arc?”

Wat, A Knight’s Tale (2001) Portrayed by:

“being funny is SEXY”

For Jaime Lannister:

“In the books, both Brienne and Catelyn saw him emaciated and covered in his own filth and they thought "he could still get it". I think Nikolaj Coster-Waldau really lives up to that reputation.”

“Let's be real he's probably not into you, but doesn't that just add to the charm?”

AITA for taking an overseas position without consulting my wife?

Throwaway in case my wife sees it.

I (51m) was recently offered the job of my dreams, it came out of nowhere but fits with everything that I have worked towards for the last 30 years. Really the opportunity of a lifetime and will allow me to actually make a difference. However I would be required to move out of the country very far away, with limited ability to travel back and forth. At first I was ecstatic and said yes pretty much immediately, but when I was speaking with my colleague on zoom he kept telling me that I was getting in over my head. And then my recruiter seemed to think it was weird how quickly I agreed.

My wife (47f) and I have been fighting a lot more lately. She keeps complaining that I am not involving her enough in my life and gets annoyed when I spend time with my friends. I’m starting to get the feeling she resents me for never becoming as successful of an engineer as she wanted to. Which is ridiculous since the truth is that she simply never had what it took, and I don’t think it’s fair for her to be angry at me. She also gets angry with me when I tell her this, for some reason. If I tell her about the job offer I am sure she will go crazy.

Thing is, if I don’t take this position I know they are going to ask my brother (47m) instead which I am certain would be a disaster. He is really successful in our field, but he is reckless and throws himself into things head first. With a skull thick enough that I would not be surprised if he could survive a rockslide. It feels like I have been babysitting him since we were children and I am scared of what he would do without my direct supervision. If they put him in charge I am sure it would burn to the ground. His wife died a while ago and he did not take it well, so he and his boys (13m & 17m) have been staying with us for a while to sort things out. Which is actually a reason why I am not as comfortable leaving, you see I am not comfortable with how much time my wife and he are spending together. They were friends before me and my wife met, it was how we were introduced, and while they never dated I am also not an idiot. You do not keep friends of the opposite gender and bring them to parties without there being some interest. I am afraid that if I leave they might start something.

My children (28f) and (21m) are both adults, so they are no real reason for holding me here. I have paid for both of their college educations as well as my son’s wedding last year. So clearly I have done everything that is expected of me. I would have done the same for my daughter, but she seems hellbent on getting her PhD and seems to get upset whenever I suggest that she should try to settle down. Which is actually really annoying because if I am actually leaving then I need her to have a husband who I can leave the family company to, as my son is the only person I know who is potentially more of a loser than my brother.

I don’t think I have done anything wrong, but my coworkers do not seem to agree. So am I the asshole? I just want to make a difference and be away from all of this mediocrity.

“Edgin is such a fun character - he's charismatic, realistically flawed, and genuinely kind to the people around him. His platonic relationship with Holga is delightful. And he's pretty - he's not a strong warrior or hardened veteran, but a handsome guy with a good smile.”
