"NOTES (for the ever-nosy, Mistborn-crazed bunch you are):
• every time someone says “king” or “your majesty” I go:
I love him and he's a good and wise king and his kingship isn't laughable...but it kinda is? 😂 ADMIT IT
• barely read two lines on the Watcher and already love him 😋
• you're doomed 😐"

"When you're scared of your woman who's obsessed with perfumes ⤵
elend: *forced smile* that’s a…new perfume you’re wearing
vin: *famous flat look* it’s not perfume, it’s dog
elend: *slumps in relief* ah, good, I was worried you’d departed from your senses
Also:
• Kell is EVERYWHERE
• I bet it'll enhance the other metals
• anyone gonna mention the alloy that might very well see into your future?"

"I continue to amuse myself with the king who does the sEcReTArY's wOrK! I love this boy, but I'm embarrassed for him to no end *face palms*
On a scale of 1 to 10, how kingly is he rn?
(I had no free time...so I made that)
NOTES:
• puppy training indeed, Aoife XD
• called it, duralumin 😎
• Vin, you BADASS
• hate how she treats OreSeur"

"“You are still a fool, Elend Venture—you just don’t look like one anymore.”
JSIWHSKA FINALLY!
Thank you, Tindwyl; I love you I do I do I do.
I was waiting for someone to comment on the leadership issues and shake this boy some the same way Leonardo DiCaprio waited for an Oscar 😐 (and then he went like:)
(that's Frozen BTW XD)"

Zane, WHeRe HaVE U bEeN AlL mY LiFe
I love Elend but he's not my type 😋
Azrah dear, u can have El, but I WANT ZANE...deal?
P.S. I assume this is Vin and Zane (tho he shouldn't be wearing a mistcloak):

"“Vin isn’t…like other women.”
Tindwyl raised an eyebrow, her voice softening slightly. “I think that the more women you come to know, Your Majesty, the more you’ll find that statement applies to all of them.”
Let's hear it for Tindwyl and Vin—they are truly feminism incarnate 😍😭"

"It's time for confession:
On a scale of 1 to 10, how nuts is Zane?
↪ ONE THOUSAND
On a scale of 1 to 10, how much do I love Zane?
↪ 1,928,374,651 :P
I certainly do have a type...
The accuracy of this 😂 ⤵
P.S. History repeats itself...or is it manipulated to be repeated? 😏"

"The only reaction I can muster at the end of part two (after, of course, swooning over Zane and being awed by Vin my dearest) is:
*hits head on the wall* UGH ELEND *face palms* you had it coming! I love you but you really needed that metaphorical punch in the face 😐 you were asking for it...more like begging"

"“Do not dismiss someone’s beliefs because you do not understand them, Mistress.”
OreSeur is the BEST—how could you NOT love someone who prefers rotten meat, calling it “aged” and comparing it to aged wine? 😂
Vin and OreSeur 😍
P.S. Uh oh, I'm now sure I know what's in the Well of Ascension"

"My GOD Elend I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU ugh 😑
Would someone please punch him in his pretty face? I love him too much to do it myself. But I MEAN...
In the meantime:
“Don’t you think a man better appreciates love when he has been forced for so long to go without?”
Zane, you manipulative bastard I adore 😭"

"Ruin's hole-y pants (if it wears any)...Vin kinda just, you know, kicked legen—wait for it—dary ass 😱 that's a duo I would NOT want to face, thank you very much *faints*
I’m…broken, Vin. Maddened.
But must not even a madman rely on his own mind, his own experience, rather than that of others?
P.S. 😂 memes that are life:

"It's official—besides contrite rebel, theology nerd, and insistent preacher, turns out Sazed has another secret occupation as well: marriage counselor 😂
That aside, when it comes to romantic partners, it's not about who's a “better” and “more untainted” man; it's about understanding. And FYI, declarations of love DON'T solve all problems. I don't feel like that's sth Sanderson gets. UGH."

"Well, he's dead and for me there's only bitterness and the million dollar question: WHAT. The. POINT. THEN?
Pls enlighten me bc—as I see it—not only did we NOT explore his potential (tho Sanderson had admitted to being a little frightened of his dark, edgy characters so I had no real expectations) but his other purpose was also wrapped up with. A. Freaking. Declaration. Of. Love 😐 FU :)"

"Which was more potent? The pain of memory, or the pain of forgetting?
DAMNATION! I both loved and hated this more than book one—in other words, it made me feel; so, I suppose I'm in the minority who enjoyed The Well of Ascension more than The Final Empire?"
