    Burn It! Randland Cursing and Mat (Favorite Moments?) - Spoilers Possible

    I also enjoyed that little scene, at that point it has been such a long time since we have major characters reunite. Mat's sneakiness is one of his best traits. How he slips through the gateway unnoticed, and in the Stone of Tear, how he just "disappears" whenever Moiraine's eyes-and-ears close...

    Burn It! Randland Cursing and Mat (Favorite Moments?) - Spoilers Possible

    Ah, good call! As others have said, that's one of Elayne's more humanizing characteristics. I love the scene in the Rahad (I think?) when Mat notices Elayne practicing the curse he just used, but assumes it was just his imagination. And how delighted Elayne is to meet Uno, the walking curse...

What did bother me about that was Mat's snarky comments after it was said and done, and Thom reprimands him. A good...

    That is a funny little scene, Kyla Sedai. It comes close to being over-the-top, but it makes up for its absurdity by being hilarious!

    Burn It! Randland Cursing and Mat (Favorite Moments?) - Spoilers Possible

    Haha, good one Kyla Sedai! That one got me laughing out loud the first time I read through it. Mat is explaining to the guys that there was no way he was going to get surprised again like in Hinderstap. And Thom asks "And the way we're going to avoid that is...?" and Mat jumps in "With elaborate...

    Burn It! Randland Cursing and Mat (Favorite Moments?) - Spoilers Possible

    This is an extremely minor and nitpicky thing, but it continually irked me that "Burn me!" became "Burn it!" in the last three books. I know that cursing generally evolves, but "Burn it" never felt quite right. That was the only standard curse that seemed to change, and I just couldn't read it...
