honestly i think about Venli’s last chapter in RoW a lot. The end of RoW understandably gets overshadowed by all the emotional Kaladin stuff, but her last chapter coming home to the Singers, offering help without expectation for anything in return, but most of all just wanting her mom to live and be herself again was so impactful to me. It’s so hard facing someone you love who doesn’t recognize you, it takes a very specific kind of bravery, but she does it anyways and tried to help despite being told it likely wouldn’t work. Her words weren’t accepted until she was fully driven by a genuine need to help someone else out of love- not out of necessity, self preservation, duty, guilt, etc. but love. We sleep on Venli’s arc she was one of my favorite parts of RoW

Rereading Oathbringer and that moment where kaladin couldn’t swear the fourth ideal is just so raw and emotional to me. He is trying so hard to be ready and to save everyone but he’s still suffering too much from seeing friends in both sides dying. And to me it makes the moment in the Highstorm where he swears the ideal that much greater because know he has begun to forgive himself.

It’s a typical reaction people have when they find out he stops being a soldier.

this is infuriating i know mental health matters but i'd just like kaladin to start murdering people please

For those who can't wait for more Renarin content, I've updated my fic Renarin's Special Interest (rated General, 2000 words, RoW spoilers) to include a piece of commissioned art, done by chickengk aka thebridge4chicken on instagram! Check out their Stormlight art!

A digital ink sketch of Renarin and Jasnah in front of a blank background. Jasnah sits at a desk facing away from the viewer, her long hair mostly falling freely down her back except for a single, thick braid held by a clip. She looks to the side and up, towards Renarin. Renarin wears his Bridge Four uniform, and his shoulder length, light-and-black striped hair is pulled into a low ponytail. He stands beside the desk, clutching his box, his body facing the viewer. His head turns quickly to face Jasnah with a blush and a shocked expression. In return, Jasnah gives him smug, close-lipped smile.

Fellas is it gay to run experiments with the STEM savvy former queen of the place you conquered and holding hands with her as you create a whole new form of power through song

Okay so is it going to be addressed that Adolin grew up with an alcoholic father (with the whole set of organising an intervention at 15, finding him black out drank etc.) oooooor will the story be just as oblivious to it as Adolin is atm?
