Started reading Yumi and the Nightmare Painter. Every time Hoid narrates a story I just assume he's got Kaladin cornered somewhere and refuses to let him go.

A Sorrow Shared~ Adolin and Kaladin sharing in their grief after the storming of Kholinar. Non scene specific, just an idea I wanted to convey.

A very personal piece that i did when I was coping with my own loss. Adolin and Kaladin really embody the strength I needed the most during that time, and I'll always be forever grateful for these two. 💙

Kaladin is my favorite character because hes 6’8, hopelessly heroic, probably one of the strongest characters in the story that isnt a deity, is always looked up to and seen as an AMAZING dude

But he reads as a teenage girl

Same man nicknamed “stormblessed” in a world where storms are holy.

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

I'm seeing Moash discourse and because I hate peace I'm going to chime in with my own two cents since I think everyone is wrong.

On one side you've got the Moash defenders who want to genuinely advocate for him or say he's misunderstood or shouldn't be held accountable for his actions because he's under the control of Odium or was a slave or a victim or whathaveyou, which I think is pretty short sighted and ignorant because regardless Moash still made the choices he did of his own volition and he did decide to be put under Odium's emotional control in the first place. I do think Moash is a sympathetic and complex figure because of his background and the way he's been made a victim, but it's wrong to erase his culpability or try to say he's right when he just absolutely is not.

On the other side you've got Moash haters who are also just wrong. Because even if Moash is a bad person, he's not actually a person, but a character written by a human being with political and moral views. And regardless of your opinion on Moash as a moral figure, its inarguable that he is written as a lower class person who is driven by hate and revenge to become a monster and he's villainized beyond the point of other characters who are more privileged than him but committed just as if not even more horrific actions. Moash is "problematic" if you will, because he's a caricature that paints all forms of revolutions of violent rebellion as especially evil and dangerous. He is an example of the kind of media that portrays the leftist revolutionaries who have a point as the villains because they kill people. His writing results from those same neoliberal politics.

And on the topic of redemption, I don't think Brandon is against Moash being redeemed or thinks he's "worse" than other characters like a lot of people have tried to claim based on those WOB about him not being interested and having farther to go than Dalinar. Brandon is simply saying that redemption is a choice and right now Moash isn't interested in that choice, so that journey is going to be a lot more difficult for him as things stand now.

I do think there are problems with the way Moash is written but I think people are identifying those problems and then trying to defend Moash in the wrong ways. Whether he was justified in his actions is completely irrelevant to the issue of how he was written to commit those actions in the first place. And that's where the problem actually lies. Moash's writing is problematic because it paints the victims of oppressive systems as "just as bad" as the oppressors and villainizes genuine revolution because it's "too dangerous."

As for my personal feelings toward Moash the character, I don't hate him like a lot of people seem to. I sympathize with him too strongly to hate him. I honestly mostly feel bad for him and find his particular character conflict incredibly compelling, especially in ROW after he's made the decision to imprison himself and is attempting to imprison Kaladin. I do find the hatred towards Moash from the fandom a bit concerning, especially when Stormlight is full of characters who have committed similar atrocities who are much more liked. People don't have the sympathy towards his circumstances that I think they should.

#I’ve got a weird pity respect disgust combo feelings for moash #but I agree with what’s said above #guess I’m both meanings of fuck moash #just. don’t suicide bait Kaladin or kick children pls or I’ll fucking hunt you down regardless or wether your simpathetic or not #the nice wonderful thing about fictional characters is that we can explore these toxic relationships and such from a safe distance #and no real person get hurt #moash represents a lot #and ultimately the point of him as a foil currently is that redemption is chosen #stormlight archive #oathbringer spoilers #hot take #maybe

Drunk doodling lol. Always thought it was funny that kaladin tried to impress bridge 4 by carrying a heavy piece of wood, big cave man energies. Love that he hides and passes out as soon as no ones watching. Also sorry I censored kaladin with a splatoon 3 tshirt.
