Interviewing My Wife About The Cosmere: Part 3
My wife has still not read any Cosmere books. She listens to me talk, and she sometimes reads this blog, and that is where all her knowledge derives from.
So anyway, here are her Top 10 Favorite and Least Favorite Characters and why! In no particular order because she said ordering them seemed hard.
[Previous Interviews With My Wife: Part 1, Part 2]
Who are your top 10 favorite characters?
"She's autism girl and she plans things and that's cool."
2. Adolin's sword girl [Maya]
"Because she's cute. And she screams. :)"
"Because she's adorable. She likes teacups and she explodes things. That's pretty much awesome."
4. Kaladin's rival lady [Leshwi]
"Is she a crab? I mean the rival crab lady. Because she's bad-ass."
"He's a smoofy, grumpy boy, even though he burned his wife--but that's okay! :)"
"Because she has a grumpy husband and a toxic yuri wife. And that's pretty epic."
"Because she is fun and she can balance things. And we can stan a cool Asian boss lady." [author's note: my wife is Asian]
8. The girl who cannot aim [Ann]
"Because it's funny! But I do not know her name."
"Because she's really bad-ass. I know nothing about her except that she's bad-ass. And I think she kills everything? That's pretty cool. I like that in a woman." [author's note: I have never killed anyone. I promise]
"Because she's got big boobs. And she decided she wanted big boobs and so she gave herself big boobs. Nice. And she has a fun name." [author's note: my wife did not remember the name]
11. Bonus: Elhokar Susebron
"Elhokar! [Me: ...Elhokar?] "You know the guy who seemed evil and then was smoofy? Like, he seemed scary and then they got married and he was really cuddly?" [Me: You mean...Susebron?] "Um, yes? That's my favorite trope! When the big evil guy turns out to be smoofy!"
Who are your top 10 least favorite characters?
1. The guy is either a genius or stupid [Taravangian]
2. The douche who made Kaladin's team almost die because he was a prick? [Sadeas]
Me: That could be many people, actually.
My wife: The one with the bridge crew!
Me: Got it.
3. The god person who takes over you when you wear metal [I still don't know whether she means Ruin or Sazed]
My wife: Because that's cheating! And i don't like it.
Me: Which one?
My wife: There's more than one?!
"Oh my god! Kaladin's dad!!!" [Me: That's gonna be controversial] "He's a jerk! He's one of those horrible helicopter parents who is like 'Oh you have to be a doctor even if you don't want to be!' Ooooh, I hate him. He's in my top 5 most hated."
"isn't he bad? I don't remember what he did. He was really creepy and douchy, right? He deserved that death!"
My wife: Who is that guy who is sort of evil but not really evil?
Me: Kelsier?
My wife: He seems kinda meh. He's everywhere, right? Why is he everywhere?"
7. The Lord Ruler, I guess?
"You know that cowboy planet? The ones who moved the sun around and everything. That was stupid and bad planning."
"Was Tress's dad bad?" [Me: No!] "Who then? The boyfriend's dad?" [Me: Yes] "Him then! I hate bad dads!! Happy father's day."
Me: You don't like Nikaro??
My wife: I think he's incel-coded. I mean, I think he got better, but still!
My wife: I think he's kinda boring.
Me: Going for controversary, huh?
My wife: I liked him better as a coatrack.
