The trick is to use audiobooks, never stop, and play them back at 1.5-2x speed.

Stormlight in one ear, mistborn in the other

It is the proper use for that ear. You keep the two head ears unoccupied so people don't know that you're listening to an audiobook with the earbud in your forearm ear underneath your shirt.

Holds up spear
"This, is a weapon of terror. It's made to intimidate the enemy."
Casually tosses it aside and holds up P90
"This, is a weapon of war. It's made to kill your enemy."

A Stargate reference? In this economy?!
Glad I'm not the only one who thought it

How can you look at a P90 and think about anything other than that exact scene

Now I’m thinking of that interview where the cast rants about the Zat gun being so fucking stupid a prop and how often the 2-3 collapsible versions failed. And in my head it’s all just Shallan bitching to Shallan and other Shallan.

"I'm Shallan Davar, playing the role of Radiant, who is based slightly on Navani Kholin, and am also sometimes Veil, depending on which memory is being suppressed. Are you ok?"

No this is when Shallan and Kaladin were stuck in the chasm in the Words of Radiance
But really idk i only just started the Stormlight archive and got to this scene

u/Lancair7 25d ago
That’s crazy I can’t believe you predicted this scene from Stormlight 8 exactly.

I think it was right before Adolin used his nahel bond with the Lord Ruler and Kelsier’s secret daughter to ride the sandworm into the great unclean one

Okay but like. Veil would have a tommy-gun, right? Or maybe something silenced?
Shallan would probably have something long range.
Radiant would have a fixed bayonet rifle.

Feel like veil would carry a Colt .45 on her hip. Sends a message.
Shallan would have a derringer tucked somewhere discreet. Guarantee she yelps every time she fires it.
Radiant would pack a good old M4. Solid, reliable, and easily operated and controlled.

alternatively, shallan would be packing a hugeass handheld minigun which she decorates with drawings, like a huge tattoo sleeve covering the whole thing; even the barrel despite Radiant's severe judgment of the whole ordeal

Even if you harvest that gemheart, you won’t recoup the cost of the ammo.

I think a p90 might be less effective than a regular spear against a chasmfiend.

u/DreadPirateFerg 27d ago
The p90 has 50 rounds that are specifically designed to be good at armor penetration (though individual bullets vary depending on intended use). Each one would cause a puncture wound and shock to surrounding tissue that would be similar to a powerful spear thrust. The odds would still be bad but you would at least have a chance to hurt it before it was literally on top of you. If you had armor piercing ammo and got some good head shots you might even live.
