Hi #WoTSkies I really haven’t been posting much on socials since #WoTCon but I wanted to share a happy update for friends I saw there and who got to meet @themver.bsky.social

Because when an amazing person makes you a bridal wreath you want to share with other amazing #TheWheelOfTime nerds
Two hands wearing sapphire engagement rings over a floral wreath made with tiny white baby’s breath, small flat eucalyptus leaves, and spiky blue sea holly. Rebecca and Lou posing in pirate themed garb at a Renaissance faire - long sleeved blouses, corsets, skirts, multiple necklaces and belts/scarves and long earrings. Lou is in neutrals with pops of blue and Rebecca in purples and green.

Ryma Sedai of the Yellow Ajah making graceful weaves rotating one hand over another, almost like a dance. She is a beautiful Black woman with natural hair in an updo wearing a long sleeved yellow blouse, a brown vest, a deep red skirt and a serene expression while she prepares to kick ass. Text overlay reads she’s Ryma and she’s Yellow Ajah.

Happy Pride! And since it’s also #WoTSelfieSunday I’m sharing a girlfriend reveal 🥰

From the moment I met @themver.bsky.social they were down to dive head first into #TheWheelOfTime and I’m insanely happy she’s coming to @wotconofficial.bsky.social with me to meet some of my favorite nerds 🌈
Selfie of me next to my girlfriend. We’re both smiling outside on a sunny day with trees in the background. I have dark auburn, wavy shoulder length hair and am wearing a floral spaghetti strap top over a pale green t-shirt. She has dark tight curls to their chin and freckles and is wearing a collared, button down top with subtle stripes and a key on a necklace.

I read the explainer at the beginner carefully and the way I interpret it, #TheWheelOfTime would be in the “I dunno” category for now
Screenshot of part of the Rotten Tomatoes article. Relevant part reads: How it works: Renewals are obvious: new season = yay! Cancelations are more complicated. When a network or streaming service announces that they're not making another season of a show, we count that as cancelled (or "canceled" if you spell it without SEO considerations). Sure, some shows "come to a natural end," but someone somewhere said "enough." So to avoid debating the semantics of "cancelled" versus "retired," we're just going to go with the former. There are also some instances, either due to scheduling conflicts, or various delays, where the answer is "I dunno." In those instances, we will leave the series as renewed and list the most recent season until we're told otherwise.

This quote has been my anchor for some time. I took a small piece of it - “all we have to decide” - and transcribed it into an Elvish script that Tolkien created and now I have a new tattoo to remind myself that all I have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to me.
Artwork by JRR Tolkien of a dragon flying over a mountainous landscape and a crescent moon. The artwork is simple color work in blue, green, black and white. The quote on it reads: "I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo. "So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us." J.R.R. Tolkien A black ink tattoo of Elvish script on my inner left forearm.

A four part image. Top left has a photo of Egwene touching the face of a traumatized Rand outside of Rhuidean superimposed over a rocky ground. To the right of it is an image from Groundhog Day where Larry the camera guy and Rita look down and he says they might be okay. Bottom left is an image of Lanfear looking at Egwene while she takes off Rand’s coat and he kisses her neck. It is superimposed on a rocky ground with bursting flames. The bottom right image is Larry and Rita with their faces lit by flames and he says well no, probably not now.

I absolutely love the way @taylornapier89.bsky.social describes #TheWheelOfTime

Excellent pitch!
THE BARE MAGAZINE Taylor Napier: I think there's a little something in it for everyone- we love to hit the high fantasy beats. We love to provide an hour (or longer if you are binging) a week where you can escape our world and dive into this crazy ass magical place. There are obviously a ton of fantasy shows out there, but I feel as though a ton of them shy away from their roots and try to basically just make the show Succession with Dragons- which is cool and obviously people love- but it takes the joy, the action and the adventure out of it a bit. Give me a woman shooting fire out of her hands any day of the week. We don't shy away from fun. That being said, I think our show appeals to people who don't like fantasy as well, because we root everything in our characters first and foremost. We like to say we are an ensemble character drama wrapped in Sci-Fi/Fantasy packaging, and because we have so many characters, there's someone for everyone to love and love to hate.

I feel I need to make one little addition. Clint Gordon as Mat’s admirer 👀
A man with very muscular arms crossed. He has brown skin, short black hair, a short beard, and chiseled bone structure. He looks to one side and wears a gray tank top which shows a detailed sleeve tattoo.

The funny thing is this style is sometimes called a wolf cut
Stylish shaggy wolf cut for short hair. Pictured is a side view of a woman with short layers on top of her hair coming to about the top of her ears and longer layers beneath coming to just barely brush the top of her shoulders.

I’m late for #WoTSelfieSunday but on vacation what even are days anyway
I’m in a kayak, which isn’t visible, but I’m wearing an orange and black life vest over a dark pink shirt. I have light pink sunglasses on and my hair looks redder than usual because I’m in bright sun. There’s olive green water in the background and mangrove trees.
