Lopen’s mom mothering Elhokar was not on my WoR bingo card but I’m living for it

I love and hate sebarial. Because like. He’s hilarious, funny, treats his people like people, and really doesn’t do anything. However. He doesn’t care about anything. He doesn’t care about people who get hurt, people who die, anything.

*Dalinar giving everyone but Sebarial a good pep talk before a war*

Sebarial: Where the hell is my impassioned speech?

Dalinar: Go to your tent and don't get in the way.

Sebarial, genuinely: Perfect!

Honeslty this is my one of favorite thing about these stories, how those characters are mentioned and you can find them elsewhere. And sometimes they do stuff like Gaz or the slaver who's name I forgot, or sometimes they don't, their life just continues away from the protagonists, like Hav.

Fun stormlight easter egg!

You remember Hav? A minor character, Kaladin's mentor when he first enlists in the army?

a screenshot from The Way of Kings. The text reads "Many people were dying on the other side of the chasm, but Kaladin didn't feel a thing for them. No itch to heal them, no desire to help. Kaladin could thank Hav for that, for training him to think in terms of "us" and "them." In a..."

In Words of Radiance, when Kaladin meets Zahel and thinks about his past as an ex soldier (close but no cigar buddy), he wonders if Hav wound up in a monastery

A screenshot from Words of Radiance. The text reads, "“You’re a soldier,” Kaladin guessed. “Ex-soldier, I mean.” “Yeah,” the man said. “They call me Zahel.” Kaladin nodded, the irregularities clicking into place. Occasionally, a soldier retired to the ardentia, if he had no other life to return to. Kaladin would have expected them to require the man to at least shave his head. I wonder if Hav is in one of these monasteries somewhere, Kaladin thought idly. What would he think of me now? He’d probably be proud. He always had seen guard duty as the most respectable of a soldier’s assignments."

Hav is not in a monastery. When Shallan is out on her first foray for the ghostbloods, we learn he's only a couple warcamps over guarding Amaram's manor!

A screenshot from Words of Radiance. The text reads, "“Report at the guard posts from now on when you visit,” the man said, pointing toward a small, lit area in the distance behind them. “We’re going to start keeping a secure perimeter.” “Yes, Sergeant.” “Oh, stop harassing the lad, Hav,” the other soldier said. “You can’t expect him to know rules that half the soldiers don’t even know yet.” “On with you,” Hav said, waving Shallan through. She hastened to obey. A secure perimeter? She didn’t envy these men that task. Amaram didn’t have a wall to keep people out, just some striped posts."

And him and Kaladin never ended up seeing each other. Shame really.

Not only would The Lopen wear them (for obvious Lopen reasons) but there would be a Bridge 4 fireside where Rock wears them while cooking his stew, and Kaladin would complain the same way he did about the Chouta. The next day all of Bridge 4 will be wearing them to tease Kaladin and he will have to live with it for weeks until he eventually gives in and they all wear matching flip flobsters.

Shallan 100% would steal them immediately after and wear them on a date with Adolin even though they're 10 sizes too big.

Screennshot of a tweet saying "Never leaving the house again without my flip flobsters".
Attached to it are two pics; one of a person's legs in dark pants, wearing red-orange sandals formed like a lobster.
The second picture shows the sandals by themselves.

Which Stormlight character would wear those.

(Hoid doesn't count.)

Love that Word of Radiance literally opens like:

Shallan: Jasnah hates me now because I robbed her and is just taking me along with her forever because of some unknowable reason probably she definitely thinks I’m bad now 😞

Jasnah: *wrote to her mom to tell her about Shallan, came up with a plan to help Shallan’s family even though it would help her enemies, talked up Shallan to her mom to a point where her mom thought it would be a good idea to have Shallan marry into the family and started the betrothal process (but left enough room to back out in case Shallan doesn’t want to get married), got worried because hasn’t seen Shallan in five minutes and decided to sit on deck with her even though she clearly wants to be inside, told Shallan that she thinks the magical beings have brought the two of them together and they need to be together now because fate or whatever (she’s the worlds most prominent atheist btw)*
