Gay Disasters of the Cosmere
This was inspired by a 17th Shard Thread, but my answer was so Tumblr, I had to share it here [Note - I reference characters from all the main Cosmere books, so read on with that in mind]:
(1) Sarene - mostly straight, but her disaster tendencies give big gay vibes. She mistakenly thinks being a lesbian would be easier because she is tall.
(2) Kelsier - Okay... listen. Yes Kelsier is mostly in straight relationships, but no honest straight person could manage the DRAMA that Kelsier pulls off. He's definitely experimented with guys, and is honestly just turned on by anyone who can keep up with him. He and Dockson almost kissed once, but both thought it would be weird and turned it into a bro moment.
(3) Ham and Breeze - Yes, they both marry women, but there is an unspoken attraction that they are both too stubborn to admit to. They both know it's better for the their friendship to leave the sexual tension simmering below the surface, and so they don't mess with it. Both would die for the other. Breeze likes Ham a little more that Ham likes Breeze, but would never admit to that.
(4) Shan Elariel - I don't know, her energy is just very gay, okay?
(5) Rashek and Alendi - I have a whole fic about this. #Rashendiforever
(6) Ati and Leras - Another fic. Gods in love. Opposites attract. Star-crossed tragic lovers doomed to destroy each other. Delicious.
(7) Denth - Why is he so obsessed with Vasher, hmmmm? Are he and Tonk-Fah really just 'roommates'???
(8) Fafen - Big "joined the clergy cuz I'm gay" energy.
(9) Blushweaver and Lightsong - BI DISASTERS OKAY!!!
(10) Wayne - Kind of likes Wax, and isn't too hung up on gender in general, but mostly likes the ladeez (yes he spells it like that because he's awful).
(11) Marasi - She just has that "I thought I liked the MC because he's the MC and I'm supposed to like him, right? Right?" kind of vibe, and I could totally see her questioning that and being open to her own bi-ness or lesbianism going forward.
(12) Shallan - confirmed bi disaster.
(13) Adolin - Gotta mention my boyfriend. Fellas, is it gay to go to jail for your crush bridge boy? Also a (basically) confirmed bi disaster.
(14) Kaladin - Yes, I know you've had like three girlfriends, but what were you saying the other day about how perfect Adolin's hair is Kaladin? Right, right, right.
(15) Axies -I have no words for how much sheer gay disaster-ness this beloved Aimian exudes, but I am so here for it.
