Zaara | 4273 comments You bet it IS too late...
;-)
We are all seriously impressed already.
Look what Iain did with a single apostrophe, we said.
Look how he changed EVERYTHING and brought it all coherently under the generalised and prevailing theme of tracker smuttery...
😂😂😂

She, innocent thing, is burning the midnight oil and studying for her engineering exams (all about wet pumps and suctions, we heard) and never dreaming that behind the mask of the famous hero lurks a depraved animal..."

Is it coincidence that I lead a knighthood and she runs an armory?

Zaara | 4273 comments Oh amazing Sir Anni. Did I say how much I love you? I will go to your tracker now, immediately after this post.

Ladies and Gen'lemen & Beasts and Beastnis (this is what all my mates in India called me),

I give thee the Good King Peter 👑 and the Fair Queen Shallan 👸...a match made in the annals of literary history...
And here in the threads of a group gloatingly devoted to Brandon Sanderson shall the saga of their Sheets rock the Cosmere!

Damn! I am (view spoiler)

Anni | 5066 comments The world is dangerous outside! You should wear some protection, like a knight's helmet. It's always better to think of protection first! ;)

I just thought of that moment in Supernatural:



"Don't worry, I had my knightly helmet on!" xD

Zaara | 4273 comments THE T.J. KLUNE-ABERCROMBIE CENTRIFUGE

Serious part:
Fin are we still gonna read Ravensong? Bcuz looks like the thread moved ahead.
Also the book seems naff, according to their comments...
You were waiting for the audio? I was waiting for everyone to get the book, as promised in the covenant of mutual smut helpfulness 😂😂😂

EDIT: Shall we give it a miss and imagine a better story for Mark and Gordo? I have the ebook so we can still go if you wanna.

Extremely serious part:

@Virginie darling...now try to remember...was the wall uhhh "already there" when you passed that way the last time?

Bcuz helloooooo...Wolfsong....
😜*KICK*😜
Don't worry, Virginie. It only appears that I am siding with Finbar and Sir Anni.
Actually I am totally on your side. I know that you are truly the innocent one here.
*glares at Finbar*

The evil man has this effect on ALL the women. See how everywhere he goes he is surrounded by a swirling vortex of adoring females...they call themselves The Depressed Peter Fan Club and their official duties consists mostly of cheering him up, I hear.
By now, the tales have made their way into the annals of song and legend. Look, it is written in the serious academic literature even:

Zaara | 4273 comments Meanwhile Sir Anni...haha 😂👊 did you think I will let you go so easily, Ghost??
Everyone is accountable at HeadQuarters.

I comfess I am feeling somewhat let down and depressed abt all this. I built a splendid new ship. Also I gave you the entire Cosmere to torture *points* those two with.
All that stuff about
SPOILERS FOR THE ENTIRE COSMERE, OHK...THE SMALLISH PART OF IT WHICH ZUNAUGH READ
(view spoiler)

So by now I thought this tracker would be filled with the dirtiest Sanderson jokes. Xpecially since you guys read all the published Cosmere, right?
And still *snort* you let this sorry duo remain with the STDs....😜😜😜

Also Anni your ghostly boomb armour seems totally loose. Must have happened during the Poop Break, I think.
What did @Margret warn about that?
Come ehre, Sir..the Order of the Garter can't have you risking your life.
So please return to the Armoury at omce and ask for the Weaponsmistress Dragonchild.
The *hiss* intern is going to be unavoidably detained...I can see she needs further imstructions about Hazardous Working Conditions.

Uhm no... I still haven't read Oathbringer. Shame on me 😂 But I'm working on it... Slowly! And of course I'm waiting for you and Siobhan to read world of Radiance next month to go all out on fangirling 😜

I'm fluttered to see you care so much about me being save, I will have my armory mended. Maybe Virginie have to take more measurements?

Zaara | 4273 comments Oh thanks be!
24 hours of a deafeningly creepy silence from two ppl who are almost always on GR multiple times a day...😕😱
Nooooooooo!
This had me immediaetly thinking whether it's Za Makes A Social Gaffe o'clock. The time of day which always seems to come around, unannounced and unwelcome, when it is least expected.

It also had me feeling like a worm, a cuckoo and a smelly piece of cheese...and led me to think that somewhere in America and perhaps in France, two strings of pearls were being clutched in a combined moral outrage...

I dunno?? Bcuz I just continued the prevalent flaming rod, knightly armour, Ravensomg stuff and added some Cosmere twists...everyone was playing....the dirty allusions and innuendos were flying so fast...on all the threads...I was away sick the entire time. So when I returned and saw all the hyperexciting posts...of course I also wanted to play...which is pathetic, I know...like I said...I totally suckfail at this dirty stuff.
And all day yesterday I was thinking "I dunno why I thought I could be suave and smooth and adult when actually I should be perpetually banished to the Nursery of Social Retards..."

But thank God the creepy silence ended. I love you guys!

I still deffo think Finbar may be chivalrously worrying about the delicacy of Virginie's feelings or something. Bcuz so far...we have all seen...he can totally make and take the uncouthest dirty jokes about hisself.
But I totally took her permission...didn't I, Gin?
There must be a splendid variety and rotation in the kicks so..."Virginie," quoth I abaft a PM, "I am hereforth planning to make uncouth and rowdy Shallan jokes to kick Fin with. Is this ok with you?"
She was totally cool with it. See, she is obviously not clutching any pearls in France......
Bcuz I would never be inconsiderate or blindside kick a gal...any gal. But xpecially Shallan...heck, I'd totally throw myself gallantly under a bus for her bcuz I love her...and in an extremely idiotic way I think I might already have did that 😂 but truly...nobody knows this, not even Ginny.

Apparently they were jiggling around in ill-fitting undergarments/overgarments... I'm just an innocent bystander to this conversation...

I swear, the whole thing is Flirting-by-Proxy, or something... since Zaara does all the work for us...


message 278: by Anni (new)

Anni | 5066 comments Ah... My bad, I don't know why I missed that 🙈 Now I feel a little stupid.

And what undergarments? Virginie said to make the armor fit like a second skin, there're no undergarments allowed... Was this a trick? 😱


message 279: by Zaara (new)

Oh!

Well, as long as you're quite sure it jezzt was the heaving bosoms...

Yeah this was totally why I went there....buuuuut alack and alas...my math is horrible...and so are my measurimg skills...
I never could figure out the thing with the inches and centimetres + the tiny little lines on the tape are extremely confunding and require greater investigation...😝

It will take multiple attempts. I will make mistakes all the time and lose track of my earlier measurements...
I would prolly be at it all day...
*shiverzzzz*
I glory in my numerical ineptness...

This is why I never made master tailor/armourer and remained a hopeless apprentice...in fact I was so bad, they had to open a helpline...

#gin&fin4ever

Regarding Ravensong...in that case, @Fin let me know one week BEFORE you plan to start the book 😂😂😂 so by the time you start I will have read enough to keep pace and post some spoilers. It can wait as long as...I'm in no rush...I already have 8 open books...😂😂😂

For a second I thought you were a topless apprentice... because of your sartorial ineptitude/machinations...

Zaara | 4273 comments The Guild of Apprentices provides a uniform...😂😂😂 which must be worn at all times.
However, the Virgin...ahem the Armsmistresses who run the Armoury....they have greater sartorial freedom.
My ineptitudes are mathematical....Finbaaaar.....

topless is pretty close to hopeless

I made another apprentice mistake, Fin.

I already said yes on your behalf.
You better come, since the event has speshully been arranged to celebrate and siscourage as a glorious finale to the Team Tourney,
Also there may be some ill-fitting clothes worn by the guests...not everyone is trés chic....
*KICK*

Ok....*serious face*...put it in your planning place, tracker whatever. Dont forget in a creepy old age like Satin who promised and then went and read Nom de la rosa alone.

message 297: by Timelord Iain, Tech Support (new)

Timelord Iain | 35608 comments Mod
Uh... totally not me...

Finbar is one of the brothers in the Daughter of the Forest, which we read last November... I dunno where the depressed peter thing came from... I think it was supposed to be a reference to The Way of Kings, since Zaara already calls Virginie "Shallan"


message 298: by Anni (new)

Anni | 5066 comments Haha, don't lie Iain! If you're ever wondering to whom Zaara is referring, Iain is a good placed bet :D

Depressed Peter is Kaladin, I think because of Syl/Tinker Bell? And in this case I think it's again Iain she meant.

Haha, soooooo do you also add being a ghost to your multitasking abilities, Virginie? Or was it someone else talking to us on that day about colliding solo with the floor N all?
Bcuz I clearly remember you were TOTALLY there, albeit on a different tracker.
Perhaps you were distracted by something?? Haha, no escaping...bcuz Ghost and I are too evil. And also (alack and alas) we will never get distracted. Bcuz of our...uhhhh...evil??
Also meeeeeowww, daaaaaahlin'...

@Karou....looks like you are not alone. This group is very extremely haunted 😱 see, a
there is apparently more than one Ghost 👻👻 over here...

Ok *serious face* Virginie, do you also read Classics?
