Spoilers for The Lost Metal!

little doodle cause i read all of lost metal last night and none of my friends/family have finished it yet— i just wanted to paint something quick for this book because holy crap this book was completely insane and i loved every second

i just wanted to do a simple doodle so wax is a cat, might make another post with a bunch of cat design for era two but for now, wax

also i have no idea how to draw a ship so thankfully it’s like 90% explosion

Steris, my queen

WAYNE HAS BEEN RELENTLESSLY PURSUING A LESBIAN FOR FIFTEEN YEARS.

Guys he’s so fucking stupid.

Bands of Morning Spoilers

I have a feeling this Twinborn Terrace kid that Wax shot in the eye is gonna end up the main antagonist of this book. Let’s see if my wild and absurd ability to predict things makes a comeback.

Yo, holy shit, Elantris is referenced in the Ars Arcanum. Yeeeaassssss let’s go!!!

Shadows of Self Spoilers

She’s wearing Lessie’s face… and knew in intricate detail how she “died”. She was either Bloody Tan… or Lessie herself. I am. I am confident Lessie was a Kandra the whole time. It fits her hatred of being manipulated by Harmony… maybe she actually loved him? Maybe she didn’t want to lose the life they lived at the time. Maybe she was forced to go along with Sazed’s plans and lost her favorite face… and that broke her. Fuck, please if I’m right I’m going to be irreparable.

Soony Cubs.

Mistborn Era 2 is easily the funniest series I’ve read in the Cosmere. Like. He goes crazy with the humor this time.

MeeLan wants Wayne so damn bad oml. World’s most down-bad flesh thing

MeLaan is absolutely incredible and I love her so much. She and Wayne are a phenomenal pair. Every dynamic in this book is amazing. I honestly haven’t even met a single character I’ve disliked or even found boring yet.

(Also you guys better send me MeLaan x Wayne art in the reblogs, I’m begging. They’re perfect. If anyone can pull a shapeshifting, immortal demigod it’s Wayne.)

“Hello, Crazy.”

“Hello, Idiot.”

oh my gosh Wayne and Steris are best friends

MARSH?????

I hope the rest of the crew shows up like that!!!!!

Mistborn Era 2/Stormlight spoilers

Just gonna go out on a limb here, but I think the big bad organization Wax’s uncle is working with is preparing for some sort of Cosmic war thing. The things they are doing are utterly reprehensible and the only way I can fathom them doing it with a good conscience is believing it’s for the “greater good”. So with the knowledge that the government is… well, made of these men, and Harmony isn’t corrupt, the only thing big enough to make this make sense (obviously to a demented, immoral mind) would be an out-of-world threat like Odium or another Shard.

I imagine their justification is something like “You see what you did to that building, Wax? With these children we can selectively breed allomancers and feruchemists of whichever type we want, then combine their powers with Hemalurgy to create impossibly powerful soldiers. Imagine an army of 100 Miles Hundredlives! We’d be unstoppable.” With knowledge of hemalurgy and compounding and all that, I imagine they’d independently arrive at the concept of making another Lord Ruler, which like… would be extremely difficult to deal with for anyone we’ve seen in the Cosmere. But yeah, they’d feel they were doing the right thing, “making the hard choice for the greater good”

Then Wax would be all like “but the cost in lives is ridiculous! This is not worth it, man, can’t you see that?” Blahblahblah blah. This is a stretch, so I’d not be surprised if it’s something totally unrelated, but a lot of Rhythm of War is spent ranting about an impending God War, so it doesn’t seem unreasonable.

Oh hey Actual God appeared and he gave you a funny coat and some guns. This means we’ve hit the Sanderlanche.

oh my god. With the earring in, Harmony can LITERALLY speak with worshipers oh my fuck. Because he has the Shard of Ruin and can do all the things we see him do, Hemolurgy is under his dominion… Aaaaaaaa that’s so cool. I hadn’t stopped to think about it until just now, but that is SO cool!!!

hot damn, I was right about that last part lmfao

I have a gut instinct telling me this butler character is gonna be a highlight. His sass. His attitude. His barely constrained urge to strangle Wax… It’s beautiful.

Wayne does things that would send Shallan into doom spirals. He method acts for fun and Shallan would have crumpled like a house of cards beneath his rambles about accents and personality and “stealing voices”.

He no-diffs Shallan, not because he can manipulate time, but rather because she simply couldn’t keep up with his Spastic Man Swag™️

I- S-spook’s street slang. B-became. THE ANCIENT HIGH TONGUE OF NOBILITY

That’s. That’s the best thing I’ve ever heard. Sanderson you’re such a genius.

Aaahhhh, Eugenics. My least favorite part of this series.

Wayne looks like Junkrat send post

“The Lord Mistborn” makes me think Elend… but no, he and Vin didn’t have any kids, neither did Kelsier. Mmmmm…. I have no idea what the hell this could be in reference to.

I hope this absolute lunatic woman who showed up with a 20 page contract about the terms of a prospective engagement with strict regulations about how much public lovey-dovey time they spend together becomes a main character. Please Sazed, I’m begging you. Work whatever powers those funny mists gave you to let her stick around. She’s insane and I need more.

Wax just shotgun jumped. 10/10. I fear Brandon Sanderson may have peaked.

Elendel!!! Eeee!!!!!! I think I love this series already lmao. I can every SINGLE reference will get me super excited.
