I was rereading Wheel Of Time and one thing I love is that you don’t get Mat’s point of view until the third book. I mean the first two books you watch Mat say all the wrong things and be a complete idiot and you’re like “What is this guy doing?!”, and then you get to the Dragon Reborn and you’re like “Oh, that’s what goes on in his head” and you still think he’s an idiot, but now you experience the comedic genius that he is

aes sedai: do you swear to speak no word that is not true?

moiraine, who grew up in a culture that required all participants to constantly obfuscate their true intentions and carefully manipulate others to try and avoid being assassinated by a paranoid member of a rival house before they reached the age of eleven: sure lol why not

To earn a third name, you have to do something profound that improves society. To earn a fourth name, you have to do many things that profoundly damage society.

people should stop acting surprised about nuclear manetheren theory on that poll you’re personally hurting me by acting surprised about nuclear manetheren. what do you mean that the books hinting at a nuclear weapon analogue wasn’t your first idea when you read the series. the cats have six toes which is a phenotype that’s highly specific to the two rivers. the population in that region is isolated, sparse, and highly scattered with no resources being devoted to its commercial development by the reigning monarch. a high energy event carried out during a battle preceded the deaths of most of the local population. shadar logoth, the closest ally to manetheren, rotted from the inside from an inexplicable, invisible sickness which no one in the city survived, and it continues to kill most people who venture within its walls when they come in contact with the Evil Wind.

Mat's ambition is to live happily as 'Just Some Guy', or be a 'THOT'. So it's funny when ne'er-do-wells attempt to manipulate him by offering power and glory, it's like they've rolled a 1 on Persuasion.

Mat would love to be a fun secondary character you met in a pub on your own heroes journey— the specifics of which you kept far from him. I don't think I've read a protagonist in a novel who hates being a main character so much. He's pretty singular.

Robert Jordan choosing names.

Still annoyed when I see fans writing it "Matt". :D

Obsessed with how everyone thinks moiraine just faked her death. I mean like they're right she would do that but it's so funny, they literally listen to people who saw her walk into this doorway which then exploded and are like "hmmmmmm. But what if she just paid off everyone in Cairhein to say this?"
