#outriggers

[tenth-sentence]

A peculiarly white and very light wood (Hibiscus tilaceus) is alone used for this purpose: it is the same which serves for poles to carry any burden, and for the floating outriggers to the canoes.

kinda random but what are your thoughts on Mat Cauthon as a character

speaking of asks that have been sitting in my inbox for way longer than is reasonable (January 24th, helpful time stamps tell me)

Mat's an absolutely fascinating character and I feel like while I've always enjoyed him in the reading experience, up until my more recent rereads I wouldn't have necessarily called him a fave - and I would still say he's in a different category from my truest Wheel of Time blorbo (Rand al'Thor) he is definitely in a "I am turning you in my head like a rotisserie chicken" category.

I was always a Mat/Tuon fan (of their relationship) from my first read, but I think that was very specifically about their dynamic more than being about either of them as individuals; I've come to appreciate them both more as characters over time.

I think it was on my most recent reread (which lasted from 2020-2023, with a big gap between Knife of Dreams and The Gathering Storm) that I really came to appreciate just how much Mat is an unreliable narrator, specifically about himself. And one of the things I find interesting about his specific type of unreliable narration is the way that...okay, I feel like there's an idea sometimes that equates unreliable narrators with liars, and can try to make unreliable narrator status a sort of moral indicator, but Mat's unreliable narration is very persistently in the direction of "this man is so determinedly clueless to his own self in a way that is directly contradictory to his behavior and psychology." There are two characters in Wheel of Time competing for least self awareness (Mat and Nynaeve) and I actually think Mat might be winning.

It's not even that he thinks poorly of himself, exactly - Mat doesn't spend a lot of time angsting about being selfish etc. - but he does have this image of himself as a person who is very much not a bloody hero that he is constantly actively contradicting without seeming to really notice it. And he just keeps doing it, forever. Love that for him.

He's just...I think I'm delighted particularly by the way he looks like one character at first blush - a particular type, or even a particular archetype - and then turns out to spend a lot of the series actively disproving that impression while continuing to more or less buy it about himself. What a guy.

I mean, I also just yesterday finally read @highladyluck's excellent meta on Tuon and Mat and their mutual character development via each other so I'm still thinking about that, too.

Duran Duran - Save a Prayer

Feel the breeze deep on the inside

Look you down into your well

If you can, you'll see the world in all his fire

Take a chance

Like all dreamers can't find another way

You don't have to dream it all, just live a day

Comment: The video was shot in Sri Lanka! I remember quite well a trip out to the sea in one of those outrigger boats shown there. No dreaming….just living the day. Sometimes it's just good to drive away negative thoughts through positive experiences.

Just remembered that Monoma being in 1A means that the 1B students are going to be going 100% in the first round because the reason they held back in canon was to get the element of surprise and that was monoma's idea

YUP. Which is understandably going to cause them some issues in later rounds. While it's true I have no intention of doing just 'everyone from canon but Bakugou' as the final round, and do intend to shake up the competitors a bit, that visibility is going to bite them, and depending on what I do in terms of sequel stuff, that 'coming back to bite them' could also affect them in the Licensing Exam.

Outrigger is a '59 El Camino, in orange, with a variety of mods that he fabricated after. His weapon is either a chain-sword or a chainsaw and he's a civil engineer.
