What is this, me being on time? Anyway new Patreon commission, this time from Defiant!

Who has blessed us with this adorable artwork? Why, that would be Jillistrations, who you may also recognize from like half the other fanart of this series out there. Go check out her stuff if you haven't already!

As requested by anon. :)

Namely, Sanderson characters from non-Cosmere works I've actually read, aka Skyward and Frugal Wizard.

1. Ryan Chu (Frugal Wizard) and Amaram (Stormlight)

Ryan: What DOES Sanderson have against handsome, highly competent people? Amaram: I don't know. He just hates us. Ryan: Are we too good at our jobs? Amaram: Are we too handsome? Ryan: Too good with the ladies? Amaram: Too effective in battle? Ryan: Is it that we maybe slightly screw over his precious main character while working on something greater? Amaram: He's SUCH an unforgiving author.

2. Jorgen & Spensa (Skyward) and Vin & Elend (Mistborn)

Vin (narrowing her eyes at Jorgen): You look like a man from a highly wealthy, politically influential background who has a strained relationship with his father, especially after you fall in love with a badass, combative woman from the "wrong" side of society who has special powers needed to save the day. Spensa (narrowing her eyes at Vin): And I'm getting the sense that you had to fight really hard for everything in your life but never gave up, and that you didn't like your man initially because he seemed wealthy and stuck up but eventually you realized that he matched your freak pretty exactly. Jorgen: Oh wow, we definitely need to set up a double date! Elend: Did we just become best friends?

3. Cobb (Skyward) and Harmony (Mistborn)

Cobb: ...and it's honestly horrible, constantly loading children into that munitions chamber to be spent into empty shells. Harmony: I know what you mean. Every time I cannot act, I have to call upon Wax to be my gun once again. Cobb: And then they go out... Harmony: And then he goes out... Cobb: And they die! Harmony: And he kills tons of people! Cobb: ... Harmony: ... Cobb: I think you got your metaphor backwards there, friend. Harmony: I think it's you.

4. John (Frugal Wizard) and Painter (Yumi)

John: [holds out his hand for a fist bump] John: Fellow loser protagonist? My man. Painter: I-I'M NOT FIST BUMPING TO THAT

5. Kimmalyn (Skyward) and Adolin (Stormlight)

Adolin: It can be tough to be the most emotionally intelligent person in the cast, huh? Kimmalyn: Tough? I dunno about that! I like being able to help my friends! Adolin: I mean, me too! Adolin: But we're both so friendly and mostly upbeat that I think people sometimes forget we have our own problems. Kimmalyn: Yeah...I missed some shots that haunted me for a long time... Adolin: And I stabbed a guy through the eye in an alley. Kimmalyn: Well, bless your stars!

6. Sefawynn (Frugal Wizard) and Demoux (Mistborn/Stormlight)

Demoux: Off-worlders giving you a hard time? Sefawynn: I'm sorry? Demoux: People from other worlds? Coming to your planet and messing everything up? Sound familiar? Sefawynn: My husband is from another world. Sefawynn: I would not say that he "messed things up." He helped save us. Demoux: [Crumping up a Seventeenth Shard pamphlet in frustration] How great for you.

7. Spensa (Skyward) and Jasnah (Stormlight Archive)

Jasnah: So these "Cytonic" abilities of yours give you access to the "Nowhere." Spensa: That's right. Why? Jasnah: Which is some kind of extra-dimensional space that exists alongside your "normal" space where time is strange and timeless creatures exist? Spensa: The Delvers, yeah. Jasnah: You are basically a sci-fi Eslecaller. Spensa: ... Spensa: A what?

8. M-Bot (Skyward) and Nightblood (Warbreaker/Stormlight)

I had all and then most of you, some and now none of you

[Image ID: Series of pencil drawings of Spensa and Kimmalyn depicted as panthers, Spensa is a tiger and Kimmalyn is a snow leopard. The two of them are drawn in ink to stand out.

First image: Spensa and Kimmalyn are standing in front of a window on platform prime through which the planet Detritus can be seen. Kimmalyn and Spensa are side by side, Spensa leaning into kimmalyn, her head nudging Kimmalyn's cheek. Spensa is smiling and appears to be talking about something while Kimmalyn looks at her with a fond smile. They are both drawn in ink while the background is in pencil.

Second image: Spensa is sitting in the cockpit of a ship wearing a helmet while Kimmalyn hugs her neck from outside the cockpit, her eyes squeezed shut. Spensa is looking down and away from Kimmalyn, with a stressed expression. Only one of her eyes can be seen through the visor of her helmet. There is a grounded poco class ship in the background showing that they are in a hangar.

Third image: Spensa and Kimmalyn are facing eachother, looking into eachother’s eyes and smiling warmly. They are in front of the water station outside of a hangar.

Fourth image: Kimmalyn is in the cave where Spensa was rebuilding Mbot, looking down at a handwritten note at her feet with a distraught expression. In the background there is a wrench laying on the ground and part of a ship’s wing leaned against a rock.

- Spensa returning after battle of alta second
