Next Chapter In The Story! I Told You I Would At Least Make Sure It Was Here In A Month!

Next chapter in the story! I told you I would at least make sure it was here in a month!

SPOILERS FOR TV SHOW AND FOR THE BOOKS

Okay okay

So while I’m working on eating alone, Moiraine’s weird energy has taken me along for the ride. Forever ago I made a post about writing a Wheel of Time time travel fic, but since then the Wheel of Time tv show finished its season and I’m at a crossroads.

I decided that I wanted Moiraine to be the person to raise Rand in this fictional scenario, but I’m not sure how I want to go about this, because I need to decide on what flavor of Moiraine I want. So, my options are as follow (spoilers) and I am taking suggestions because all of these sound exceptionally fun. I also am debating about whether she goes alone or with others and who with

Fires of Heaven Moiraine that just tackled Lanfear and thinks she’s dead/dying

Shadows Raising/Fires of Heaven Moiraine that is so fucking lost about what to do next

TV finale Moiraine that suddenly finds herself in a place of raising the boy that she just figured out was the dragon reborn and can no longer channel

New Spring Moiraine as a newly minted Aes Sedai that suddenly has to raise prophecy child

EDIT: Note that there were two more on here, but I decided that they were less interesting. Pre and Post Last Battle Moiraine, while somewhat fun, makes her journey less interesting than the other four.

Two incredibly cursed things:

Today, I accidentally typed Rand Al’Thor as Rand Al’Thot and thought to myself “Well, it’s not exactly wrong.” Good for Rand.

My friend (who has only read the first three books bless her) apparently half jokingly/half seriously ships Rand and Gawyn. I.... don’t know how to feel about that. On one hand, just as much screen time as with Elayne and Gawyn does seem to have just as much immediate affection for Rand as Elayne. On the other, it’s Gawyn (my personal reread just brought be to THAT PART in Shadow Rising and ugh it begins).

Update: I am working (believe it or not) on my first book club thing. I think I have rewritten the first chapter notes about four or five times before I decided I wanted to do something a little different.

(one reblog = one hug for Rand)

okay i’m really curious about this all of a sudden for no discernible reason so please reblog this post and say in the tags:

1) whether or not you need glasses, and if so whether you’re near-sighted (myopia) or far-sighted (hyperopia)

2) whether or not you have an astigmatism, or any other similar condition that affects the eyeball itself

3) whether or not you have any conditions that affect the eye muscles, like nystagmus

and finally, the subject of my curiosity:

4) whether or not you can unfocus your eyes at will. i don’t mean crossing your eyes by trying to look at the bridge of your own nose/your glasses/etc., i mean intentionally affecting a non-responsive stare where your eyes stop tracking things and stare straight ahead/wherever their most neutral direction is
