  1. Moiraine and Perrin in TDR. Particularly when Perrin is reflecting on how every night Moiraine makes him do chores she is perfectly capable of doing herself, and how he knows he's being manipulated. I just love how he breaks it down and all the things Moiraine does: acting astonished he wouldn't want to do it, simply walking away, raising one eyebrow, etc. I love how they are both aware of the unfairness of it all, but Moiraine still gets away with it.

  2. Let's see, I have always liked the scene in TGH when Rand is having his audience with Siuan (avec Moiraine/Verin) and he asks (again) if Moiraine can teach him to channel and she says that whole "birds/fish" saying. Anyway, what makes me laugh is how then Verin goes on into this lecture about these fish that can fly, and these birds that can swim, but then she realizes she's rambling and sort of quiets down while Moiraine and Siuan are giving her a death stare.

     

    And then, there's the NS scene where Sheriam tells Moiraine and Siuan that "sometimes you two are passing on strange".

     

    Oh oh, and also, in NS, when Siuan is telling the MoN that it really would be better for Moiraine to stay behind, gosh golly! :) And then the MoN decides Siuan can stay and keep Moiraine company and Siuan's smile is all frozen on her face. :o

     

    Man I could go on and on.

  3. :)...Do I want to know what it was about?

    I realize if I say "no" that'll make it sound worse than it is, but I'm going to say it anyway.

     

    I will say that it was like some weird chat thing? Maybe an online game. All I know is you were represented by little pixel people akin to FFI characters. And that Olivia forced me out of the chat room.

  4. I don't like Obama and his politics, and I'm really tired of the Obama cult...

     

    Also, McCain is an Arizona rep. Arizona is usually a loser state so it would be nice to win something FOR ONCE.

     

    Annnnnnnd, I want English as the official language and something to be done about this border fence. I don't know. I lack faith in Obama and am not going to blindly vote for him just because he's not Republican.

     

    Unless Hillary is his running mate, then I would swallow my pride and vote for him.

  5. Very well said. I feel the same way !!

    Glad I'm not the only one. :)

     

    I will say I love RJ's style. Towards the end I disliked his pacing, but I have always loved his style. However, I was pretty hesitant about book 12 even with RJ writing it, so it is nothing personal against Sanderson.

  6. For me it isn't about better/worse, but that RJ=WoT for me. I know that seems obvious, but what I mean is, his style of writing is how I am used to reading about this world, and I don't know how well I can respond to someone else doing it. It'll always feel a bit like official fanfiction to me.
