    Summary

    Death adored so, that those were who have never cut, having far cried out of storms and men, men and storms of outcries far, having cut, never have, who were those that so adored death.

     

    (In other words, I have no idea how to write a good summary, but decided that it needed to be done, and so I wrote a silly little poem.)

    Summary

    Formerly titled "The Elsecaller And The Windrunner"

    It takes a lot for Jasnah Kholin to become romantically interested in someone, but when she finally does, he's worth it.

    I'm going to keep this piece to a teen rating (heat level slightly higher than canon), but there will be additional E-rated scenes in my other series for those who are interested. I'll write the explicit scenes such that they are not necessary for the story, and I'll include links where they fit in.

    Summary

    Kaladin is attending the Ivy League Kharbranth University as a premed student. Modern-ish (mid-2000s) AU with no magic or spren (our world) just our favorite characters (Kaladin, Shallan, and Adolin) meeting/navigating college together. Think Stormlight with more girl-boy drama and lots of misunderstandings/miscommunications because I love that shit. If you're a millennial, get ready for some nostalgia. Especially where emo music is concerned because in my heart Kaladin is the OG emo kid. You can expect lots of typical millennial teenage angst/feelings/drama/pining/firsts and my typical crack-ish innuendo-laden prose. Also, we will be using ‘storms’ as a swear word because it's part of my vernacular.

    Monthly-ish updates.

    His muscles felt shaky and weak. He was going to hurt tomorrow but today he was going to sleep hard. He shut his eyes before he collapsed face-first onto his bed but his eyes almost immediately snapped open again.

    It smelled like her. His pillow, the sheets, his blanket. It all smelled like Shallan. He felt like he was surrounded by her. He wished he was surrounded by her. Fuck.

      Bookmark Notes:

      “I… should have told you sooner. Maybe we thought it would blow over? Maybe I just wanted to keep our secret between the two of us. But Kal is a Windrunner… oaths are the most important thing on Roshar to them. Now that there’s a wedding date set, he wants to break things off with me. Well, not really wants , but says he has to.” He knew his own eyes were beginning to well with moisture. “He says he can’t be party to breaking the marriage oaths we will speak.”

      “But you still want to marry me?”

      “If I can’t have him - and that’s just not possible - you’re the only other person I would have,” he told her honestly. “I understand if you want to back out, but I do love you Shallan. I can be a good husband to you in every other way. I just can’t lose Kaladin - I would throw myself into damnation if it meant keeping him. I don’t know what to do.” He ran a hand through his hair, frustrated, and a tear slipped down his cheek. Shallan was silent for a long moment, looking at him.

      “Marriage doesn’t have to be about love,” she said finally. “Not for people like us. It can be about political advantage, personal gain, even money. All I want from my spouse is kindness and honesty. My own parents, I think they loved each other, once. But eventually things got bad. I can’t do that, Adolin - be part of an unhappy union - but I can come to terms with sharing you, and your heart. If the oaths are the problem, why don’t you guys speak some of your own?”

      “Oaths of our own?”

      “Yes - something that will satisfy Kaladin’s sense of honor and won’t make any children we might have illegitimate.”

      Adolin looked into the hearth for a long time and then he looked back at her. “Will you help us? Find the right words?”

      Shallan stood up, walking over to kiss him on the cheek. “Of course.”

    Summary

    Major spoilers of Part 1 of Sons of Tanavast Series!

    Look away now if you don't want to be spoiled -- I highly recommend reading Part 1 before this fic.

    This series replaces book 5 Wind & Truth. Major spoilers for book 4 Rhythm of War.

    -

    The saga continues;

    King of Alethkar, God of Honour and single father. Kaladin’s life came crashing down around him after swearing his fifth ideal. It was the hardest one yet and in the aftermath of the trauma can he recover or will he shatter? Who can he trust when Navani has turned against him, Kalak betrayed him and all of his friends just don’t understand.

    Struggling to cope with the grief Kaladin finds himself regressing as he lives a new and simple double life as a recruit. As it turns out Bridge twenty-three needed this new recruit just as much as he needed them.

    Meanwhile the desolation continues as Odium does not back down after the Honour shard was reforged. Instead, it is Vyre who hatches a plan to try to turn the war back into the favour of the enemy.

    Summary

    CONTAINS MAJOR WIND AND TRUTH SPOILERS DO NOT READ BEFORE YOU FINISH THE BOOK.

    Hesina and Lirin deal with the aftermath of Kaladin’s actions on the tenth day.

    My mind kept returning to this scene as I finished Wind and Truth, and I felt it needed to be written since we never saw it in the final chapters of the novel.

    UPDATE: I just added an Adolin chapter. Enjoy :) or...not it's pretty sad.
