Cosmere Fake-Dating Pairs That Could "Plausibly" Happen

As requested by @room-temperature-orange-juice :)

Sanderson doesn't seem to go for fake dating all that much. But here are some scenarios that could TOTALLY happen if he did want to incorporate some fake-dating comedy into his books...

1. MeLaan & Marasi

The Scenario: Well, they obviously need to go undercover to solve a case, perhaps to a ball or a party or a wedding where it makes the most sense to pretend to be a couple

MeLaan (currently in a woman's body): All right. Let's do this! Marasi: U-Uh, MeLaan? Are you sure that's the...best body for this operation? MeLaan: Shit, you're right. Hang on! MeLaan: [Returns as a much more voluptuous woman] MeLaan: Now everyone will know that you can pull. Marasi (deeply red): T-THAT'S NOT WHAT I MEANT

2. Kaladin & Szeth [Rhythm of War spoilers but NO WAT preview spoilers]

The Scenario: Well, we know that Kaladin and Szeth will be going to Shinovar on a mission. Let's say Szeth needs to explain why he's brought a stone-walker into his homeland. The obvious explanation is that they're dating!

Shinovar authority figure: D-Dating?! Why would you date a stone-walker?! Szeth (expressionless): I like tall men. Kaladin (equally expressionless): He likes it when I hit my head on things. Szeth (still expressionless): Though I love him deeply, I do enjoy a good instance of head trauma. Shinovar authority figure (muttering): Is double "Truthless" a thing?

3. Charlie & one of those princesses

The Scenario: Rather than driving off all of the eligible princesses by being as boring & gross as possible, Charlie finds one who is willing to play along.

Charlie: T-The truth is, I already have a woman I love. The Princess: Really? Charlie: Yeah, but my dad doesn't approve of her... The Princess: I know how you feel. My father also doesn't approve of the woman I love... Charlie: ... The Princess: ... Charlie: ... The Princess: ... Charlie: Five-year engagement? The Princess: At least!

4. Lyn & Renarin

The Scenario: Fed up with her parents being all judgmental because she dumped Kaladin Stormblessed, Lyn decides that she HAS to bring an awesome date to her family dinner--and who better than a Brightlord, a Radiant, AND the king's son?

Lyn: Don't forget to bring up that you joined the 4v1 duel before Kaladin. Lyn: And how you took down a Thunderclast! Lyn: Storms, if you just smile occasionally, I bet that'll make them forget about Kaladin... Lyn: ... Lyn: Honestly, I think you might just be a better catch than Kaladin. Renarin: I'm gay, though. Lyn: Heh, well I didn't say you're a better catch for me...

5. Kaladin & Elhokar

The Scenario: Imagine that, during the infiltration of Kholinar, that part of their disguises involve Elhokar (disguised as a lighteyed woman) being the wife of Kaladin (disguised as an ugly old man).

Elhokar: Mmmm...I don't feel that I would go for a man with eyebrows like that. Shallan: Brightlady, please! Surely you can pretend that beneath his rough exterior, he has a good heart. Kaladin: ...pretend? Elhokar: No, no. I definitely would have insisted that he at least groom better. Can you make his eyebrows at least a bit neater? To sell the illusion? Or, do we have time to stop for nose-hair trimmers? Shallan: What if I just make his cheekbones a bit sharper? Elhokar: Mmmm...okay, yes. I could see myself marrying him. Kaladin: CAN WE PLEASE GET GOING

6. Wayne and Ranette

The Scenario: Wayne begs Ranette to fake-marry him.

Ranette: [looking at Wayne with a mixture of horror and pity] You said you weren't gonna do this anymore, Wayne. Wayne: No, no! Don't you get the wrong idea here! I need you to marry me and then divorce me horribly so you get half of my money in court! Wayne: Please understand--I've tried everything to get rid of this money. I'm desperate here! Wayne: Please! Ranette: ... Ranette: I get to divorce you horribly? Wayne: You better eviscerate me in court! Ranette: ... Ranette: Might be right therapeutic, actually. Wayne: You're such a good friend!

Moash & Kelsier

The Scenario: Moash realizes he's going to be reunited with his former Bridge 4 friends and makes plans accordingly.

Moash: Yup. This is my old Bridge 4 uniform, but now it's dyed black, because I'm new & evil now. Moash: And this is my new boyfriend Kelsier, who's just like you, Kaladin, only he survives MORE and actually FOLLOWS THROUGH on killing the king. Kelsier: Lord Ruler. Moash: Whatever. Moash: So as you can see, I don't even miss you guys AT ALL. Moash: ... Moash: What do you think? Will this make them jealous? Kelsier: ...I think we need to practice your speech a bit more.

Here's my entry for this year's Cosmere Mini Bang!

Collab fic writer is the amazing YourLocalTiredTruthwatcher @localtiredtruthwatcher

The fic is titled "I'll Keep You Out of the Dark (If I Only Could)", featuring Jasnah & Elhokar, the underappreciated siblings, with their behind-the-main-screen stories (which I'm really intrigued to read but hasn't been much covered in the canon text).

The fic is well-constructed and we also have some baby Gavinor. Read it to the end and you might find yourself cry hard 😭

It's quite fun to do fic art. Thanks so much for the opportunity!

[bluecalic0]

i feel lile elhokar was an absolute NIGHTMARE as a toddler

[rathalthisass]

Wait. Hold up. Are they going to meet Elhokar in the spiritual realm? Because, I gotta say, I'm not sure my heart can handle a Gavinor and Elhokar reunion.

[moash]

The fact that people are still so upset and betrayed about elhokar’s death as if he wasn’t the most eminently murderable character in SA from his very first appearance….. bruh I still remember the first time I read WoK in December 2020 and the second he waltzed onto the page I texted my friend who’d read all of the books like ‘this king’s a dumbass and I think he’s going to die.’ Honestly the only surprise was how long it took

this is actually a good point that hasn’t been hashed and rehashed to hell in this discourse. from a meta perspective, there’s really no other way elhokar’s arc could have gone. like yea the themes of redemption, but the specific way he wronged named pov characters makes any potential redemption arc too nuanced for brandon sanderson to handle. unfortunately this is also true of moash, so live by the sword die by the sword or whatever.

[thepolyamorouspolymath]

So Design was actually meant to bond Elhokar and got Hoid when he didn't complete the bond?

God, Elhokar's whole story just gets sadder every time I read this series

Stormlight moodboards part 5: Elhokar

[elend-venture]

Elhokar was a little too cool with being a woman ngl

kinda eggy tbh

[the-wizard-mozrath]

Elhokar and Jasnah Kholin

I imagined the havah having a bustle-type-thing like dresses in the late 1800s and kind of ran with that similar style for the general alethi clothing.

[novaraptorus]

A sketch of Elhokar after many failed attempts to pin down his face, plus, another of them in a havah :) I think the King likes it 🥰

"Give a Man a Fish..." Cosmere-Style

The phrase as commonly said is something like: "Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime." But here's how I think various Cosmere characters might say it!

Dalinar: Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. Tell the man about how you learned to catch fish during the long journey that has been your life, and you feed him--and his mind--forever.

Lift: Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to steal a fish, and you feed him for a lifetime!

Tress: Give a man a fish, and I'm sure he'll appreciate it. Cook the fish for the man, and that's a meal you can share!

Hoid: Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. Give a man a story, and he'll think about it for life!

Mraize: Give a man a fish, and he'll never learn how to hunt for himself.

Elhokar: Give a man a fish, and he'll be like, "But your father always gave everyone TWO fish he was SO much better than you."

Elend: Give a man a fish and you feed just that one man. Give everyone a fish, and that's equality!

Vin: Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. Give a kandra a fish, and now it can be a fish, and that's pretty neat.

Lord Ruler: Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Give some men a fish while denying others fish for reasons you control, and your society will remain loyal and safe for an eternity.

Crow: Give a man a fish, and now he owes you. Don't let him forget it.

Sarene: Give a man a fish, and watch how he reacts. Now you've learned something.

Marasi: Give everyone a fish, and you feed them for a day. Build a society where everyone knows how to fish and has access to fish, and you'll cut down crime by 50%!

Sadeas: Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. Keep the fish for yourself, and YOU eat that day. Be smart.

Wayne: Give a man a fish, and then you can take something of equal value and that's not stealing, that's a trade!

Harmony: Give a man a fish and that's probably fine, but give everyone fish forever and whoops no one's ready for the coming planetary war.

Harmony: ...

Harmony: To be honest, that's what the original ones means too.
