I've thought about him and Gawyn fucking more than anyone else should while reading The Wheel of Time.

The whole thing reads like a gay hookup in the club.

MORE:

Gawyn described Sleete as "rough" and "natural"

Gawyn says, "I can't, Sleete." and then Sleete protests.

"Gawyn hesitated again, then nodded. 'Very well. I'll think on it.'
Sleete released his arm. 'As much as a man can ask.'"

GAYYYYYYYYY

ACTUAL EXCERPTS:

"Sleete smiled. [Gawyn] moved to leave. Sleete reached out and took his arm. Gawyn looked back in surprise."

Sleete: "Hattori only has one warder. She said I could choose the next one."
Gawyn: "Why are you telling me this?"

If you want evidence of Homosexual Brandon Sanderson, all you have to do is read Chapter 13 of The Gathering Storm.

"Why couldn't life be as simple as a sword match? [...] When men fought, they connected."

I love Washington State. I filled out my mail-in ballot on Friday and dropped it off at a ballot box. I just tracked my ballot online, and it shows that it's already been accepted and counted.

Voting should be this easy for everyone.

An illustration depicting Siuan and Moiraine from The Wheel of Time. Both women wear royal blue garments, seated in a fishing boat, floating among tall grass and lily pads on a warm, sunny day. A smiling Siuan holds the oar in one hand, leaning forward to kiss a content Moiraine. Moiraine cups Siuan's chin in one hand, the other hand trailing up Siuan's thigh.

Semirhage 🔥 has always fascinated me and I can't tell you why other than I think she's a badass bitch.

Moghedien is a very close second, though!
