I’m Always A Slut For Libraries With Beautiful Architecture

robin’s ears look just a little too pointy for me to think he’s human tbh. i’m tempted to guess half elf

Quick still shots of the Wyrdwood PCs, for anyone curious :3

something something if i had a nickel for every time the original mistborn trilogy set up an almost love triangle that was never actually a love triangle which Vin promptly solved with murder i’d have two nickels

The funniest love triangle in fiction happened in The Well of Ascension, the second Mistborn book, where Zane was like "[insert evil laugh here] I'm gonna torture my half-brother by making his girlfriend fall in love with me and force her to choose between us". Meanwhile Vin is just living her life and dealing with plot stuff and never gives any indication of harboring the barest romantic or even platonic feeling towards Zane, and when he finally makes his offer she's like "what the fuck dude of course I'm not picking you". The third point of the non-existent triangle, Elend, remains blissfully unaware of any all these events (including that he has a half-brother) because he's too busy dealing with other plot stuff. Anyway, kudos to Zane for inventing clowns in Scadrial

i think i got the major ones

i’d imagine they misread this panel in 338! the way it’s spaced, if you’re not quite paying attention you might just read, “i’m erica, zach’s sister” and miss the “and i” on the next line. i did the same thing when i first read it tbh, i had to go back and check again to realize

Small question: How many siblings does Zack have? It's been a while since I last read through the entirety of IWBACAG, but I thought Stella was Zack's only sister and Erica was her friend? But in the more recent chapters, she's Zack's sister? Is this a retcon, or am I misremembering some stuff?

Er... i don't think its mentioned anywhere that Erica is Zack's sister? I think i wrote it so that Erica is Stella's(zack's sister) friend. Stella is Zack's only sibling, and if you can find the error, please point the page out so that i can correct it, thenk q

I think a lot of the strange sounding cavalier names come from numeral prefixes which come from Sanskrit instead of Latin or Greek like most English speakers would be used to. For example:

dvi- is the prefix for two, probably where Dve comes from

catur- is four, and becomes Chatur

asta- is eight, and becomes Asht

nava- is nine, and becomes Nav

Nigella is still confusing, because her name still means sixteen instead of aligning with one of the houses. Maybe she was the 16th and final member to join the original Lyctors/cavaliers or something? I don’t know if there’s an official cannon order on how they joined, but that’s the only significant use of the number 16 I can think of.

i have a question about jon's naming convention of people. like. whole numerical thing is another thing i have thoughts about but. how many languages he knew?

bcs pyrrha surname "dve" feels like it came straight outta slavic mouth. two - russian "dva" - dve.

nigella surname is shodash, hindi word for 16. not even six. sixteen.

why do these two stick out? other cavs surnames have latin roots as far as i know. is it miss tamsyn ideas overruling the question 'how the would he know these words if every dictionary is burnt with apocalypse?' is it intentional?

Idea:

okay so i just finished Plain Bad Heroines, and i had an idea for a movie adaptation of it that’s incredibly infeasible, but would be the weirdest most layered meta shit ever (spoilers for the book under the cut)

okay so i think the way to go about an adaptation for maximum chaos/confusion would be to adapt Merritt’s novel she writes about the production of the Happenings at Brookhants movie, because now you’re adapting a fake novel made about a parody of a fake movie (bc she changed the names for plausible deniability) which itself was a meta movie about the filming of a cursed movie, all of which is contained within the pages of an actual fiction novel. so now you have a movie about a movie which is actually two separate movies which are going to be stitched together into one movie, none of which is real. then to make it extra confusing and meta, the end credits pan out to reveal all of this movie you just watched was playing in a theater, empty except for three girls sharing a bucket of popcorn. when the lights in the theater come on, you see that they look suspiciously similar to the three main protagonists of the movie you just watched.

they should invent a way to read in bed that's comfortable

I just realized how much of a gideon nav/griddlehark song “Lone Survivor” by The Wrecks is.

Brandon! What does this mean?!?!
