Status Updates From Yumi y el pintor de pesadillas

😐…

MOTHERFUCKER!!!! This dickhead Brandon Sanderson had me BEAMING as the happiest mf alive for those 11 pages, and then in 6 sentences he just took that from me. Stole that from me. KILLED THAT FROM ME!

YOU FUCKING CUNT!!! I WAS SO HAPPY! This chapter was literally the culmination of all I wanted throughout this journey so far. G bless. Let’s hope I don’t go to sleep unhappy now. 😐

“He felt that he was wrapped in a blanket, with the best view in town — and he wasnt looking at the city”

You have no idea how fucking emotionally horny I am right now. THIS CHAPTER IS THE BEST THING IN THE WHOLE BOOK! THIS IS MY FUCKING FOOD RIGHT HERE!

“He smiled at her, and he loved the way she smiled back”

MF THIS IS WHAT I LIVE FOR! THIS IS WHAT IT’S ALL ABOUT! HELL YEAH — MY SHOW IS ON!

In other news, God BLESS Yumi. That girl is such a ray of sunshine in his life. She heard him and acknowledged him, but is choosing not to confront him about it and will probably take this outing as an opportunity to relieve him and then talk to him about the whole thing. Yumi ❤️

Damn. That was harsh. I get their hatred of him but is there no empathy to it? Like you saw how he was back when you were friends. Do you not see at all that this deception had no benefits to it? That it was purely self preservation in the face of monumental shame and heartbreak?

Like I get that you counted on your lives being changed but feel for my man here. I’m so sorry Nikaro :(

“That’s a lie…This is ripping you apart.” Yo somebody give my boy Nikaro a hug wtf? He is going THROUGH it! What the fuck could he have done to be so branded by the people around him?

I hope it’s not as bad as they making it seem like cuz it’s going to suck if it is — and if it isn’t then fuck all of you for being on my boy’s ass

Nikaro isn’t a bum, he’s just dispassionate. He doesn’t feel the drive that brings other people to do what they do. I get it :<

Some interesting developments here:
(1) Yumi recognized the form of the nightmares; not sure if real or if this was more a primal thing
(2) Nightmares can absorb the soul just like the device the scholars used

Time to deal with the bind we in rn 😗

At this point fuck the conflict I’m just enjoying their being around each other. Brother I LOVE YUMI! She’s so adorable (and her fixation and reaction to the TV show is hella real)

Lowkey don’t want them to go back to their lives
:(

We’re back
Will try to finish this up in the next 3 days
