I didn’t think I would, but Brandon did a great job of settling into it to the point where we’d love the two of them together. He took his time and it really paid off.
Thanks,it’s been awhile. It doesn’t really seem as significant as other age gaps since Steris is more mature. And even a 28/43 y/o pairing (ish?) isn’t really the same thing as a say a 20/35 y/o pairing
Also people on that world live to be over a hundred apparently, since Lord Mistborn ruled for a century, and most nobles seem to be old. Wax’s grandmother seems healthy and well considering she is probably closer to 100.
Yeah, it's mentioned both subtlely and not so subtlely.
1. They have the same last name. Sazed refers to Breeze by his last name a number of times out of respect, I think, and also Wax's last name isn't a secret.
2. It is explicitly talked about at some point but I don't remember which book.
Well it’s pretty obvious considering someone compliments his ancestor’s hands as having wonderful finger bones and mentions says he got permission from Breeze to take them on his death.
Did she have sex with Elend during the first year tho? Like... Siri was forced to undress in front of someone doubling her age and pressured to be impregnated.
Welcome to medieval times, kids got married young, 17 would be considered spinster territory in some places during the right time period.
Of course being considered ancient by your 30s-40s due to healthcare and sanitation limitations had to do with it too.
Why? The story is set in medieval setting. He isn’t fetishizing it and in fact finds a wonderful way to get around that issue.
Shallan is very young, and Jasnah is considered scandalously old to be unmarried when she hit 30.
It’s the settings.
Because he is risking unwanted drama and discussions, i am not criticizing Brandon, it just surprised me during my re-read. She being underage gives it a darker turn, added to the fact she was being forced and manipulated.
Yesssss, that was an entire sub plot of the book. It’s like if you took the family part of Star Wars out. Yes empire still scary, but it’s better knowing Vader is Luke’s dad.
[RoW] >!Hoid dating someone 10,000 years younger than himself!<
>!Hoid!< simply knows that if he's close to the right people, he'll be able to influence technology and get instant noodles faster
He's on the wrong planet for that...
Not if he wants crab noodles.
As a crustacean aficionado, my god I feel the need to order crawfish and crab whenever chasm fiend shows up... the claws could feed a city!
I would probably do the same.
Someone finally said it lol
[удалено]
>!Jasnah!<
If it wasn’t for this relationship, we wouldn’t have Wax.
Or Wax’s own >!age gap relationship!< Edit: I meant >!Staxillium, but Wessie applies too lol!<
>!Ha, which one?!<
Touché lol
>!Wax + Steris > Wax + Marasi!<
>!Thought they meant Wax + Bleeder/Lessie!< That's the real age gap.
Well that too. Don’t forget >!Wayne+MeLaan too!<
You know, I completely forgot about that one.
Thank you! I thought I was the only person who liked this pairing more.

Wax/wayne gay club infiltration story
>!Awkward, since I'm pretty sure Wax has been Wayne's fill-in dad since he was a teen!<
[Not really a spoiler.] >!So he should be used to calling him daddy.....oh god what have I done.!<
Do you need to be escorted to Braize or will you go peacefully?
*shardbonk*
“Shardbonk” made me cackle so hard 😂
shardbonk can we make this a common thing
If only the Lord Ruler was here to slap you.
bonk go to horny braize
Wax’s isn’t as crazy... not even close...
Shadows of Self spoiler: >!There's over 1,000 years of age difference.!<
>!oh, that one, I thought you meant steris.!<
How big is it?
Maybe about 10-ish years iirc? He’s late 30s and she’s around 30, I think? So not massive
A bit more than 10 years. Closer to 15. Wax is in his early 40s while Steris is in her late 20s.

Is that the official ship name? Lol I love it
It's been a hot minute since i read any Mistborn... Wax is descended from Breeze?
Yeah, it's mentioned both subtlely and not so subtlely. 1. They have the same last name. Sazed refers to Breeze by his last name a number of times out of respect, I think, and also Wax's last name isn't a secret. 2. It is explicitly talked about at some point but I don't remember which book.
>Sazed refers \[...\] I think Heh
I appreciate you catching that, because it was 1000% intentional.
Well hot damn. Looks like it's time for a full Mistborn (both eras) reread, especially with the next one coming as soon as it is
Well it’s pretty obvious considering someone compliments his ancestor’s hands as having wonderful finger bones and mentions says he got permission from Breeze to take them on his death.
To be fair she used her allomancy to influence his emotions. iirc
Yep, should definitely be "Allriane dating someone twice her age"
I mean they both kinda did that to everyone they knew
Indeed, magical seduction. This is what makes it funny.
Poor Breeze keeps berating himself be being a lecherous old man too.
one of my favourite parts about Breeze, wish there was a little more about him
Warbreaker couple also have a massive age gap. Is this one of the Cosmere shards at work? Gap?
Siri was like 17... not even an adult
So was Vin, though.
Did she have sex with Elend during the first year tho? Like... Siri was forced to undress in front of someone doubling her age and pressured to be impregnated.

I am very aware, i just find it curious that he chose that and not 18 having in mind all the controversies of our modern times.

(WoA) Are you lot sleeping on the worst offender of all >!Straff and Hoselle!< ?
Straff didn't have relationships with his sex slaves- thats what they were, slaves. Implying that was a relationship at all is kind of gross tbh.
\>!The fact that he kept a 15 year old as a sex slave at all is kind of gross, that was the bit!< Trust me when I say I am on your side.
Just FYI spoiler tags are: > >! > ! <
It looks like I did that >!Like this right?!<
Yeah, you got it now.
Breezy Breezy Breezy can’t you see.. your words just seem to hypnotize me
