Standard Cat Behavior

by jhamilbader

It really hurt when Hoid respawned after being vaporized and immediately frantically wanted to go back. He's been such a strange character in these 5 books. I've never been able to unhear him saying he'd let Roshar burn before he let Odium free (presuming that is what he meant), but when push came to shove even he admitted that he didn't know if he could do that. He loves that world. He loves the people on it. He didn't want to return because he thought he actually had a chance at stopping Retribution, he wanted to return because people he loved were there and he didn't want them to suffer alone.

It's only after he realizes that Roshar actually has a genuine chance at winning that he stays where he is. Because Dalinar did something wonderful and frightening and brilliant, and Hoid can use that.

He can do more to help by influencing the other worlds to grow in the ways they need to, and trying to convince the other Shards to listen. And so when he does come back to the place and the people he loves, he will be prepared to help them win.

Amazing poetry!

It's quiet by the firepit,

The pops and the crackles,

making the conversation.

The flames lick the wood,

the smoke, an annoyance I

try to avoid.

But that's where we connect.

You crack jokes,

(really, really bad jokes)

and I laugh,

because just the sound of

your voice,

your laugh, your smile,

Fills me with joy.

The little things, they

are what I long for,

what I truly want.

I want to know your favorite

color, song, food, car.

I want to know

how you take your coffee,

what you think of berfore bed

what your goals are for life.

But most of all,

I want to see how you see

me.

I catch your gaze across the

fire the light and mirth

in your beautiful eyes

reflecting the devoted falmes.

This is nice.

I smile; you smile back.

My stomach flies away,

Along with my heart, and I think,

Love is quiet, like the firepit.

Well, this is my first time in Tumblr, so I should introduce myself! <3 I'm Rui, and I'm a freelance translator and illustrator from Spain who mostly draws characters from the Cosmere saga, but I am also a huge fan of Bg3, Sonic, BSD, books and much more!

Here I leave some of my favourite pieces, so you can see my style and I hope you'll like it!

everyone trying to own trump about the "he doesn't know sex isn't determined at conception" thing really fundamentally does not understand what the point of that was, and learned basically nothing from his first term. he is not invested in scienve, biology, or any rational discussion where his provably false beliefs would be subject to scrutiny. he is signaling to everyone in the country that it does not matter what you say, he will never care and he will take every action to enforce these views and embolden his followers with the same rhetoric. you cannot logically talk to a person like this when they are reasoning with emotion, not logic. you cannot dunk the transphobia away. someone post the vonnegut quote.

reblog if you think math doesn't deserve all that hate
