Once again thinking about Wesper, who found each other against all odds, who were not love at first sight - attraction, sure, but not love - and learned to love all the little things that make up the other.

Wesper, who found each other somehow at the right time, and who are not just "Oh, they balance our each other's weaknesses", cause they do not. Jesper is not a great reader. He doesn't love to read, reading was not really something he did a lot. But he loves to read for Wylan. And Wylan is not an expert on gambling problems, he is not naturally calm and quiet - but he can be for Jesper.

For me, they are not two halves of a greater whole. They are a pair of unmatching socks that still work together.

Their relationship is not perfect, and certainly not easy, but I love wesper because they give me a feeling of "they can make it work, and they want to make it work."

And that makes me happy, that's why I love wesper.

Forever young

I want to be forever young

“Is there some ancient yin/yang prophecy? Did someone tell him she’d appear one day? How could he have possibly known Sun Summoners existed? And when did he begin to believe they were fated to be together?” Exactly.

I’ve always wondered if his belief in the Sun Summoner started long before the Fold was even created. When I read Demons in the Wood, there wasn’t any mention of it. Was he raised on stories of a Sun Summoner, a mythical figure destined to balance his darkness? If so, that means he spent centuries yearning for someone like her—someone he believed could finally see him for who he truly was, share the weight of his power, and stand by his side as an equal. What makes it even more tragic is that when he finally finds her, she’s not at all what he envisioned. She has no interest in her power, her fate, or him.

Yet, despite it all, he would have accepted her again and again, regardless of what she did, clinging to the hope that she could fill the void inside him.

That desperate hope only deepens his isolation, making his centuries of waiting feel even more heartbreaking.

I got the same ask with slightly different wording, so I kept the longer one. :)

And if there was anything

I miss him so much.

I just really need to wake up to ii beside me in bed, gently stroking my hair, while savagely roasting me and giggling like he hadn't just said, "you have such a beautiful face, love. But by reading your tumblr, we might need to place a bag over that personality. "

On Darkling's death in Ruin and Rising

How long does whole TGT last? A year? Two?

It starts with the Darkling desperate, Ravka in shambles, position of Grisha unsustainable. Why else would he put all his money on a girl he barely knows? A girl, who's never interested in anything around her. A girl, who's more than willing to jump ship as soon as an opportunity arises?!

He gambles, miscalculates, survives certain death by ripping away parts of his being, is betrayed again (and again)... Takes the position he needs to be able to direct his people out of the shitstorm they're in, all the while being generally distrusted or outright hated.

He's losing supporters left and right. Death, desertion, stupid fucking religious cult of Effortless Saint... His abusive mother- his sole lifelong companion (she made sure of that)- commits pretty performative suicide right in front of him. The final fuck you, the very last wound she could inflict.

He cracks again and again, always keeps going.

But in the Fold? Centuries of planning, loss, suffering and it's all been for NOTHING. His hands are empty, the foolish hope for company- NOT EVEN LOVE!- gone. There's nothing left. Not for him, not for his people. He gives up at last.

As @darkestelemental616 said,

TGT is a tragedy following Aleksander's slow descent into madness.

All the worse when you realize how much he overcame before, and how little did Alina know or understand. It would hit differently if his doom proved to be some decades old nemesis, or someone, who'd destroy him for some higher goal, not just "The Darkling evil and I want to be left alone.".

“In this moment he was just a boy -  a boy, who wanted to make the world a place to live without fear.”

Even in his death, LB wanted us to see him as powerful (and power hungry), no matter how powerless he's actually been.

happy new year!! how are you?

Happy new year! (it's still January, it counts right?)

I'm doing good-ish, writing, slowly, trying to read Iron Flame and fangirling over Garrick, waiting for hopefully the last surgery on my leg this Thursday - getting the metal rod out, finally. I made the mistake to google if that rod is called something particular in English and Google dutifully explained the freaking rod is inserted INTO the bone marrow??? It's inside the bone??? Not alongside it??? *slightly panicking, cause I assumed it would be a pretty easy surgery with minimal recovery needed* I'm not scared at all, I love having half my body paralyzed while people cut at it... fun, fun fun fun... I have the next chapter all mapped out and a few good chunks of it already finished. But I'm moving characteristically slow :))

…destroyed. 😔

And that's why he's been nominated for Best Actor in a Comedy. A Comedy. Comedy. Here's your Comedy. 😩😩😩😩😩😩

If the multiverse theory is correct, there's a universe where Daly confessed. There's also a universe where Dunn confessed. In all the universes where they fell in love with each other, this is the one with unspoken words and unlived possibilities. Yeah, that's it...

Once again crying over the deleted Inej and Jesper scene.

The details. The acting. The way it adds so much depth to both of their characters.

Jesper giving Inej a forehead kiss, when we already know that his mum used to do that.

Jesper keeping it together until Inej leaves and then breaking down.

The way Inej grabs onto Jespers jacket and just holds him close to tell him he's her family too.

Jesper reassuring her that she doesn't have to feel bad about leaving, and that he will take care of Kaz.

Just. The whole scene. It is so amazing. I especially love how calm the scene is: there is no(or almost no, I think) music in the background, nothing else going on, no movement anywhere else, just calmness, sometimes a birdcall. Jesper and Inej (especially jesper) had a lot of loud scenes, being in ketterdam and all, with lots of dark settings and movement in the background. But in this scene, its bright, there is a calmness that we never got to experience with them before.

Also, I love the way they are portrayed as siblings with a relationship full of love, without them being shipped romantically. I wish we would see more of those kinds of loving relationships on Netflix shows.

Okay, rambling over. Sorry.
