Use for Traveling Gateway
Interesting question! To make a Gateway, you need to know the place where you ARE, not the place where you are GOING. So putting aside having an appropriate containing vessel for it, I suppose it's possible as long as you the "caller" know the place where you are? Not sure if your device could be considered a place ... *ponders*

Healing Limits
Robert Jordan is very contradictory about Healing in the Books. Sometimes he says that it's all just one Weave (check specifically when Lord Dobraine was Healed by Samitsu) and the only variation on that is that some Aes Sedai can "adjust the dosage", so to speak. In other sections he makes it seem as if there are different Weaves for Healing.

What happens to a warder when his Aes Sedai is stilled?
Interesting question! I can't recall either if anyone has explained that anywhere. I'm actually just rereading that book, so I'll keep an eye out for any mention of anything. My first instinct is to say it would have the same effect as death, on the Warder.

Maybe because that is a mug, not a cup, m'dear? And Mother only drinks out of cups? (Once upon a time, not twice together.) But she'll wait patiently for her cup of Kaf ... and the cutesy wutesy wittle kitten!

This Amyrlin is sad because no-one has brought her Kaf yet: This one doesn't believe a word of the excuses @HeavyHalfMoonBlade is coming up with for why she's not received her Kaf yet:

AI Picture Therapy: The Amyrlin
So I have been using picture therapy lately, because mental health reasons (read about the background here). In this thread I explain a bit more about how I did it etc, what pictures I used, etc. Basically I used photos (in alphabetical order) of my late sister Caren, my mom Helena, 1 of me from around 2008, another of around 2012, and 2 from a few weeks ago (pouty me, and "novice most likely to have been sent by the MoN to the Red Head for ultimate punishment because nothing else has worked so far" me). You'll see them at the 2nd thread mentioned above. If any of you want to play the game yourself and post the results, feel free. Alternatively if you want to give me a picture of yourself to use, I'll do them and post the results for you. You can leave the choices up to me or wait till I've posted a few different ones here and then pic which ones you want to be morphed into. (You can even remain anonymous - just PM me the photo and your preference) Here are some results for the Amyrlin:

What do you do for mental health?
Is this something any of you think about, and or do something about? It's not something that's ever really been in my lexicon, but long story short I've been going through a tough phase mentally and emotionally. I haven't even wanted to be on DM, even though I want to be on DM. Can't explain that contradiction, really. My world has just grown more insular by the day. Classic burnout / depression, I suppose? Anyhoo, I've always loved artwork and pictures, and I'm sure most of you are aware that I love posting pretty pictures at the various sections of the WT/W. Lately I've been messing around with an AI app type thing called Smile (don't hate me, Cross). I've found it soothing and even energising mentally. Never really thought about it but there was mention on the radio news of some tennis player who took a 2 year mental health break and then it dawned on me - that is what I do for mental health. I withdraw from everything except 1 or 2 things that bring me pleasure. That helps me to ride the wave until I come out at the top again. It also dawned on me that I should stop feeling bad and guilty about this. If it's necessary for other people to take mental health breaks, then why not for me? So ... who can relate?
