  1. I'd have loved it a lot more if they dated properly, had lots of hot sex, met relatives/parents, moved in together, fought tons about wallpaper, toilet lids, and toothpaste, and finally had a rushed wedding following an accidental pregnancy :elayne: But I guess that would make it not WoT...

  2. But, yeah, Lanfear is crazy and she is only loyal to herself. She might act all "oh save me!" but the minute she lays eyes on his three(!) girlfriends the evil crazy ex-girlfriend will come back out.

     

    Maybe she'll be all "Ehh...three wives is too freaky for me. I'm so moving on." and start selling real estate or something only slightly criminal like that.

  3. *ignores Marie*

     

    Hold on! Maybe the green birdy is their baby? :D There is Daddy Blue and Mommy Yellow and Baby Green. Because if you mix blue and yellow you get green all over your clothes and they need to be washed. And the baby looking larger than the parents is only normal among birds. So, it doesn't have to be a heartbreaking pictures at all *rationalizes away sorrow*

  4. Have you ever considered that Thom might have planned a dinner in details with candles and a ring hidden in the dessert for years and years ever since he was little and first figured girls could be nice too, and then Moiraine ruins it just like that?

  5. Walking is soo soo tricky to me :( A page full of dialog is over in seconds and to get somewhere you have to walk for minutes usually...and there is just no way to keep a fictional convo going for that long.

     

    Especially since you can't have them chat about everyday stuff like, "My feet are cold. I should have worn my wollies."

     

    "I thought they were lost in the laundry."

     

    "Ohno, I bought a new pair from that new store down the block."

     

    "Right. Were they pricy?"

     

    Or the characters will seem really boring and not at all Aes Sedai cool. And if you make the plot complex enough to warrant minutes of conversation, it's bound to be so tricky everyone just skips to the steamy love scenes anyhow.

     

    :oops: I spent quite some time thinking about fictional dialogs while walking but that doesn't make me a geek. And anyways, it's more fun to have the characters argue at the start of the walk and then stomp away in angry silence.

  6. I didn't like when she offered to throw away her angreal just so he wouldn't be uncomfortable around a more powerful channeler woman. I know he turned that offer down immediately, but it still irked me that she would offer. Why should any person, male or female, have to make themselves less just to make their loved one feel less insecure?

     

     

    Sometimes dramatic and needy people say certain things as a kind of bait. Kinda like "It's ok if you have the last piece of cake." or "Do you think he's manly?" or, as in Moiraine's case...well, actually, I didn't read it. But I gather it went something like, "I can throw it away if you wanna, I don't mind at all."

     

    It's fortunate Thom is wise and knew to reassure her and then lose it in the laundry or something.
