  1. Oh, they could make collectable figurines out the White Tower. I would buy one! I'd buy two! One for me to eat, one to stick in the freezer to bring out and display for special occasions...

     

    *descends into off-topicdom*

     

    Oh, that's a good idea about posting a comment on RJ's blog asking about stuff...damn the fates for making him ill...just when we wanted to know stuff...if I was more horribly selfish than I am, I might've just ignored his illness and asked anyway...but I won't...because...you know...he's sick and what...

     

    I know! Wotmania is incrediably whitecloaky. *doesn't visit dragonmount because its so ridiculously hard to navigate and ugly*

     

    Oooh. The WoT Patch: No More Addiction to Wotmania. Lovely. I'm sure we could make a fortune in some sort of scam involving that idea...

     

    *beams* Yes. I was proud thinking of that parallel between the Vatican and the White Tower. (My uncle might've mentioned something about it, but shush...)

     

    Oh. *shudders* Harriot and RJ's love life. Its just too strange to go into. When I think about that sort of stuff, I get mental pictures, and those mental pictures are just images I don't want to have...

     

    *nods*

     

    Some of his work smacks of old fashioned-ness.

     

    What do you work as now?

     

    ~end~

     

    (also guilty of writing a very long public PM, but I'm just in from an outdoors concert and very cold and wet...so don't blame me :P )

  2. *off topic*

     

    Kaitlin! Write a huge long passage about it and make me look bad...:P

     

    Anyway. I don't think WoT is sexist per se, just find that particular aspect irritating. Though what really sends me over the edge is people at Wotmania (I detest that place, yet can't stop going...its like a drug. A scary, weirdo drug that can write essays on WoT) absolutely loving the Ashamen and loving all the humiliation that's been dealt out to the Aes Sedai over the last few books. *huffs*

     

    *way, way off topic*

     

    Though the White Tower is based upon the Vatican and I find it interesting that as the influence of the Aes Sedai wanes, as does the clergy in our world. But that's completely irrelevant to both threads I'm suppose to be talking about. *hums*

     

    *back to just off topic*

     

    RJ is quite good at levelling out the balance, if its supposed to be based on some period in the past. (Middle ages? Renassiance? Can't remember which) Women are educated, can own property and the like...but RJ does have a particular love of seeing women spanked, don't you think?

     

    *cough*

     

    I wonder if that's some secret fantasy that Harriet wont...

     

    No, no, I shan't go there. Very bad.

     

    *cough cough*

     

    *back on proper topic*

     

    I certainly hope they'll have chocolate. If not, several million people will go mad.

     

    EDIT: Oh, wait, its all right, I've written a sufficently long reply.

  3. *agrees with Kaitlin*

     

    ;) I am not very eloquent in situations like this, so I'm going to latch onto Kaitlin's sentiments. I feel for you and your family.

     

    *cough* Moiraine's garters are black with red lace, actually *cough*

  4. Oh, thats a good idea, make another thread...

     

    *too tired right now...maybe Jan will be nice enough to split this thread*

     

    I love the Aes Sedai. A lot of fantasy is macho and predominantly male-dominated. Its refreshing to see some powerful females and what really pissed me off was when the male channellers were stronger in the power. I mean, come on. If Ashamen are stronger in the physical sense, then Aes Sedai should be stronger in the power to level things out.

     

    Ooh, I just donned my feminist cap there. Didn't mean to offend any of the gentlemen around here, of course.

  5. I love the White Tower. I honestly do. Its my favourite bit of WoT and what I find highly irksome is when all the know-it-alls over at Wotmania get on their high horse about the Aes Sedai, as, in my opinion, they're brilliant :D

     

    Now...point of this post...what do we all think is going to happen with the White Tower after Tarmon Gaidon? Will there be a White Tower? Or will there be a combination of Ashaman and Aes Sedai and a whole separate tower be created - the stripey zebra-like tower? Or will there even be channelling?

     

    What will happen with these bonded Ashamen warders? Will that become the norm - no more non-channeller warders, only Ashamen/Aes Sedai pairings?

     

    Will Egwene be Amyrlin after Tarmon Gaidon? Logain as M'Hael? Or what the blazes is going to happen?

     

    Off you go. Discuss. ;)
