Who is the most charming spren?💙
i dont think kaladin and adolin are into each other, i dont ship them, like those are friends, but i do believe deep within my soul that for a solid week after the wor duel adolin was just totally in love. he was seeing stars. part of it was definitely the head trauma. part of it was the adrenaline. part of it was that kaladin stormblessed is just Like That. but i figure on around day 10 of his self-imposed prison sentence it wore off and he just went "well okay im doing the right thing here and im not going to stop but also What The Hell Was I On"
adolin is lying flat on his ass in the arena watching kaladin put a knife to jakamavs neck and threaten to kill him and all hes thinking is "we are going to have a summer wedding" because thats the only coherent sequence of words his extremely concussed brain can string together
Adolin "sometimes homicide is necessary" Kholin
Inktober Day 17 - Necessary
one of the funniest things in stormlight archive is that alethi women would often write side notes while men dictated the accounts and be like ''....ah yes, he says that now but its not true ...here's what really happened....(haha what an idiot).." and nobody would tell the men.
like yeah if you're illiterate you should suffer you imbecile.
maybe THE honor moment of all time?

Do ice cream and popcorn exist on Roshar?
Brandon Sanderson: Unfortunately, neither of them do. You can go to Scadrial and get some, right? But Roshar... so, they do get cheese and things on Roshar from sow's milk and things like this, but they are just not as milk-based as some cuisines on Earth. Ice cream is just not a thing. Also, like, ice is not a thing that they're really doing a lot with. And popcorn, y'know, requires maize, which...
Questioner: But you said lavis is the corn?
Brandon Sanderson: Yes, it is the corn, but if you pop it it's gonna pop a lot more like barley. It's not gonna be the same, right? That's what lavis is gonna be like. So it is the corn, but more in the idea that it's, uh... It's probably more similar to a barley.
#get kaladin the world's best lactose free ice cream 1175
(though upon further thought, can stormlight healing help?)
I mean if it's not part of how you identify I see no reason why it wouldn't. at the very least you could argue that since it cures being drunk you could be lactose intolerant and just use stormlight to avoid the unpleasant aftermath
Not the direction I expected this post to go
Reading The Way of Kings is really funny so far because you go from reading about Kaladin and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day(s) to Shallan and her sailor buddy Yalb's wacky book-buying adventure back to Kaladin about to fucking kill himself.
Super healthy behaviour Shallan. It's fine. Don't worry about it.
It's hilarious to me how Kaladin hates horses but exudes major horse energy
I’m sorry and not to be basic but for me it’s always The Kaladin Show. I love many characters but he is my favorite. He is everything to me. He is my blorbo he is my son he is my daughter he is my power fantasy he is my darkest fears he is my comfort character he is my catharsis enabler he is my full time job he is my big brother he is my screen to project on he is my best friend. If Kaladin’s there everyone else comes second. If you’re nice to him I like you. If you hurt him you’re on my hit list. It’s Kaladin o'clock and I am out of non-Kaladinized braincells
Collab with @cosmereplay who wrote this lovely fic and then let me draw a comic of it! She also wrote the image descriptions for all of this. Enjoy!
Love that Word of Radiance literally opens like:
Meeting in Urithiru. Your older sister’s bestie who hates you and you’re bestie’s foolish little sister who destroyed your people.

When Kaladin and Shallan fall into the chasms and they both know they survived because they're radiants, but they don't want the other person to know. It's hilarious. They're so worried about their own terrible lies that they don't think about the fact the other person is lying too.
Shallan *mentally trying to connect the dots to how she stopped herself and another person from dying after falling 200 feet to their death*: so uh what do you think happened?
Kaladin *wondering how he managed to save, not just himself but another person when syl is gone, and agonizing over syl (that's the very not funny part)*: oh um spren. You know. (Pretends to be superstitious)
Shallan *too busy being grateful Kaladin is a superstitious yokel to wonder how they're both still alive*
Oh and I forgot about this part:
Kaladin is fighting the chasmfiend. Shallan distracts it with a ten foot tall version of Kaladin that she made with lightweaving.
Kaladin thinks he made it. "What had he done? How had he done it?" he thinks.
