WoT:PbP VII

Small update, not much going on so far, more braid tugging on Nynaeves' part, I guess that's practice for bobbin' on Lan's nobbin' as by now she must be looking like she's having seizures!

We join the women of the White Tower just as they are getting an earful of what stupid bitches they are for letting themselves get caught by the (SHOCKER!) BLACK Ajah and suckered off to go somewhere else. Supposedly there are 7 Ajah Blue, Red, Green, Yellow, Brown, White, Peppermint, Indigo, and Mango or something along those lines. Perhaps another day I'll cover them some more but so far after 3 fucking books we don't have a complete picture of all the colors, although Mango does sound appropriate. Suon berates the women further for leaving, going to who knows where doing god knows what, putting their "trout snares out when they should be thinking of silverpike lures! YAR!" and so forth. She tells them that not only do they have a shitstorm around them but the Black (GASP!) ajah have fled the tower with ter'angreal and 13 sisters after murdering some people. So what type of punishment do they get? Well they get promoted to full Accepted, one step above Bitch-Slave level, and they have to hunt down the Black Ajah and find them out. Suon gives Egwane and Nynaeve each a letter and a pat on the ass with a helpful "Remember to set the paddle in the water using the downward spirals to keep the redfish from sensing the water in flow!" and sends them on their way. The letter is a writ for them to whatever they want in the Amarilyns' name, signed and noted. Man I would be having a field day with that shit! Find the hottest Green Sister and get a 3 way action with her and maybe a Blue and have the Brown record it! BooYah!

While Nynaeve and Egwene are contemplating what to do next on their way to their rooms they are attacked by a crossbow bolt. Again, divine inspiration follows these people, Egwene stops and it nicks her ear and hair while impacting into the stone behind them. They find the culprit and stun him and when they locate him they find he's got a dagger in his heart! How'd that happen??!?! Up comes Sheriam to see what the hell is going on and she touches the man and shrieks in pain. Both Nynaeve and Egwene give her a "WTF is this bitches problem?" and Sheriam says "This is one of the soulless a Gray Man. He's an assassin for the Dark Lord!" Great, now we've got soulless assassins who can sneak in under Aes Sedai radar as they can't be found, I am waiting for my Dinosaur Pirate Ninjas next, it's coming! Don't disappoint me RJ! Egwene goes back to look for the crossbow bolt but it's gone! She returns to find Nynaeve questioning Sheriam, no doubt digging for Black ajah but Sheriam tells them to get lost before she takes a switch to their hide. I keep hearing about this switching, I wonder if it's like people getting caned in Thailand. I know you crack that fucker across someone and they are going to feel it for WEEKS on end. I pray to whatever powers that be that we can hear about these 3 women getting caned. I would have new found respect for the Aes Sedai then!
