Sorry guys
i’m stuck knee deep in this swamp
Quick comparison: Kaladin vs Sam Vimes
Discworld's Sam Vimes is a character who, like kaladin, is very quickly uplifted from gutter trash to noble in charge of very important things. However, Vimes is constantly angsting about his new status. He hates that he has noble titles because he doesn't want to be, on paper, more valuable than anyone. He thinks he's a class traitor and is deeply uncomfortable when poor people from the street he grew up on fear he'll throw them in jail for petty crimes. He insists no one else use honorific like "your grace" and hates the very concept of a king. Kaladin lacks the same burning soul of Vimes. His thoughts and musings change to fit his environment. Kaladin can be lightened when he needs to. Sam Vimes is completely incapable of being a Duke. He's like a dirty stray dog in a royal gown. I love my dirty stinky old man Vimes. Sorry got a little off track but yeah you get it.
I love kaladin but i fucking HAAATE kaladin. As soon as kaladin became upperclass, class struggle no longer mattered to him. You just dont hear about slaves anymore, you dont hear about darkeyes. You would think with the parshmen gone, and the world in turmoil, darkeyed enslavement would be out of control, but we wouldnt fucking know because kaladin doesnt fucking care. Kaladin doesnt care that dalinar has slaves, he doesnt care if he works under a corrupt monarchy, he does as hes told and turns a blind eye, despite being powerful enough now to make change. He contradicts his own morals and it makes me so angry that it almost feels inexcusable to me
how jingo went
close ups on his face, bc i like when hes holding on by a thread
Alright, I will start with this one then - everything starts with the glorious revolution and everything starts with the night watch 🌸
Fully adopting this into my belief system
the walkin dead is just au there sam vimes from discworld gets into the zombie apocalypse
