#spensa nightshade

[thejaymaniac]

love how enamored Brandon Sanderson is with the stars. if i had a nickel for every time Sanderson made a world in which the night sky is always obscured so the protagonists could have a spiritual moment of glimpsing the stars and seeing the majesty of the sky I'd have two nickels

Mistborn and Skyward are also tapping into the same themes, the first view of the sky symbolizing the protagonist's world of possibility opening up

maybe this is what growing up in Utah does to a mf

Reading Brandon Sanderson’s Skyward and I love M-bot because he’s like: “I don’t have real emotions, 😶just the vague approximation of emotions 😐but what you just said was very mean 😑and if I did have feelings 🙁they would be very hurt right now ☹️and you should apologize.😭”

I'm trying out Clip Studio Paint and have also been listening to Skyward again, so I gave Spensa a go.

(I really like Brandon Sanderson's books, and I want to do more of my personal interpretations of the characters, I already did a few Stormlight Archive sketches a couple years back that I shjould share at some point)

Skyward Flight: our two best pilots are a spoiled prick and a feral rat girl wtf

Skyward Flight 300 pages later: yeah Jorgen is a jerkface but he's OUR Jerkface and Spensa is a weird little bitch but she's OUR weird little bitch. Fuck off

mfs be like "this book series is one of my all-time favorites" and it's a YA sci-fi series by a white Mormon man about a bunch of traumatized 18 year olds trying to save the galaxy from a fascist government and interdimensional eldritch abominations using psychic slugs and the power of friendship.

it's me. i am mfs.

“i'm not sure this counts as lucky,” i said, pulling on the helmet. “but it's all we've got.” 🤝 “honor is dead. but i'll see what i can do.”

Scenes from Skyward✨ that I wish we got

- Spensa returning after battle of alta second

- Meeting Kimmalyn’s girlfriend

- The others meeting Chet for the first time

- Alanik and Spensa actually meeting

Also, alternate universe idea 💡 Spensa and Brade, enemies to lovers. Just imagine.

when characters are terrified and repulsed when they realize the violence they are capable of >>>

also when characters have no reaction at all >>>

[brothermouse-skeleton]

It always so funny to me when Spensa Nightshade has to explain to aliens that humans actually aren't naturally hyper violent warmongers because she is the absolute last person capable of believably explaining that.
