Part two of my commissions for the 17th Shard! I'm still beyond overjoyed to have been given such an incredible opportunity to draw one of my favorite scenes from the Sunlit man, and one of my favorite characters from cosmere, period!

Cosmere Characters Do Their Taxes

It was just Tax Day in the US! Let's say that Cosmere characters had to pay taxes. How would that go for them?

Sigzil: Knows the tax code inside and out. Saves his receipts. Is basically the IRS's dream guy.

Hoid: Does not pay taxes. This is canon.

Kelsier: Does not pay taxes. This feels canon.

Marasi: Always pays her taxes.

Vivenna: Always pays her taxes.

Denth: Sure talks a lot about how complicated mercenary taxes are but if you listen carefully, he never actually says he did them...

Nale: Rigorously follows the tax code of whatever country he is in.

Wyndle: Claims Lift as a dependent. Reports all illegally acquired income at fair market value, as the tax code requires.

Lightsong: Does not pay taxes because he's, like, a god. But it's always bothered him, somewhere in the back of his mind, for some reason...

Adolin: Cheerfully hires someone else to do his taxes, at least so long as he's single.

Shallan: Does her own taxes, Sebarial's taxes, and Adolin's taxes post-marriage.

Steris & Wax: Do their taxes together. Romantically.

Wayne: Gives so much money to charity that he never owes any taxes. Orders his accountants to find a way for him to pay taxes anyway.

Straff: Does not pay taxes in the way rich people don't pay taxes--through, like, legal loopholes and off-shore accounts and shit

Elend: Rewrites the tax code to pay more taxes.

Lirin: Committed tax fraud. But only once.

Taravangian: Is not allowed to file his taxes when he is too stupid--because he cries about how confusing it is--or when he's too smart--because he's too good at finding all of the super obvious tax loopholes and anyway he's obviously way better than the government at knowing how to spend his own money!

Painter: Got in trouble once for not filing taxes because he knew he didn't make enough to owe any taxes. Seemed kinda stupid to him.

Moash: Makes an ethical argument against taxes, since the tax laws are written to benefit the rich and screw over the poor and he has no control over what the government uses his taxes for.

Kaladin: Is torn between paying his taxes like Dalinar ordered or not paying his taxes since he promised Moash he wouldn't until he finally files his taxes at, like, midnight on tax day

It's a whole thing.

sometimes i think i swing too much between melodramatic and glib writing stormlight chatfic but then i relistened to the end of way of kings and this was a verbatim canon interaction

Dalinar: The whole kingdom needs you. Perhaps all of Roshar. The true desolation comes. Kaladin: What was that last part? Dalinar: Nothing.

and then Kaladin left and got stew and didn't ask any follow up questions. these guys are near constantly concussed. if anything I don't write them saying out of pocket stuff enough

Yesterday I told a guy I was ace/aro and he asked what “aro” meant, so I told him, and he responded, “Oh, I thought it might be like A-E-R-O and I was confused.”

Yes. I am asexual/aerodynamic. At the slightest hint of sex or romance I launch myself into the air and land several miles away.

So I’ve started reading Mistborn and the only two characters I’ve been able to clearly picture in my head are:

Camon

And Breeze

I will not take any criticism

Last night i dreamt that the fifth book ended with Navani grabbing Thaidakar by the hair and showed him Vin from the Spirit Realm so he could see how disappointed she is

"Dalinar will reforge Honor" "Kaladin will take up the shard" nah bro, if anyone is going to piece together Honor's shard and take it on then I think it'll be Mr. Taravangian himself

”Perhaps Preservation – or the remnants of what he had been – wanted to get Elend alone. Or perhaps he saw Elend kneeling in that field, and knew that the emperor of men was very close to lying down in the ash, never to rise again.

By the time Elend saw the “mist spirit,” Preservation must have been barely coherent. I wonder what Elend would have done, had he known that he was in the presence of a dying god – that on that night, he had been the last witness of Preservation’s passing. If Elend had waited a few more minutes on that ashen field, he would have seen a body – short of stature, black hair, prominent nose – fall from the mists and slump dead onto the ground.

As it was, the corpse was left alone to be buried in ash. The world was dying. Its gods had to die with it.”

Anyone else ever think about the fact that when Vin, Elend, and Spook were heading north in Well of Ascension, Spook had to sit outside Vin and Elends tent keeping watch? Like with Tin burning? So like, he definitely heard EVERYTHING??
