When I first read Shadow and Bone, I thought the twist was going to be The Darkling isn’t the villain. He was talking about peace, ending the wars and helping the Grisha. It didn’t make sense that compared to the monarchy he’d be the bad guy.

All Alina, the hero of the story, talked about was killing him and destroying the fold. Same with the others that were the good guys.

It will never make sense to me that he was the villain and Alina was the hero.

It's endlessly funny to me that there are still so many people who don't get that some of us simply do not care about applying morals to our favourite fictional media.

You can rant and yell and cry about how, according to you, I'm a disgusting monster for loving the sexy evil characters and preferring the problematic pairings with a shit load of sexual tension but here's the thing:

I don't. Fucking. Give a shit.

If you think writing long rants about why a ship is toxic or why a character is a terrible person, and why everyone who enjoys that ship/character is an immoral creep, gives you a higher level of morality... you need to get a grip in all honesty.

It's really not that serious. You're not changing any minds, you're not enlightening anyone - you're just being an annoying asshat who thinks their righteousness is more important than everyone else's fun.

Get over yourself 🖤

good evening, nikolai's coronation coat was consciously inspired by darkling's kefta

“why won’t you leave me alone?” “then i’d be alone too.” ‘his eyes fluttered shut. "don't let me be alone," he murmured. and then he was gone’ will haunt me forever

[alinasaleks]

“and the darkling?"

"i tried to kill him."

"as one does.”

[alinasaleks]

the darkling gently folded me in his arms. he pressed a kiss to the top of my hair. “i will strip away all that you know, all that you love, until you have no shelter but mine.”

[alinasaleks]

best thing about s&b was nikolai thinking mal is a waste of air but apparently the show changed that… 😐

why did you go to alina? yuri buzzed away. why seek her out?
