I just went back to my diy six of crows spinoff script because I’ve been thinking about starting it up again and I realised why I stopped last time: I got exactly to the line “How old are you, Mr Brekker?” and then stopped writing and never returned 😅 I have honestly got no idea which way to go about this so for context I’m trying to keep my script very faithful to the books but it is officially following show canon (ie Inej leaving, (somewhat) established Wesper, different Helnik meeting, Ravkan adventures, etc) and I’m leaving it up to you guys -

Thanks darlings! <33

I will not tag the characters in order to have more concrete results

I gave this question that has been buzzing in my mind, and it's whether Jesper's addiction to gambling is to do with him not using his powers. I honestly am not sure whether it is or not all I know is that is was in Crooked Kingdom when I think Matthais called Jesper sick beacuse of his gambling addiction because unlike other grisha who don't use their powers Jesper doesn't look sick, so it was mentioned that it could be his gambling addiction which was the manifestation of Jesper not using his power so that his gambling addiction.

(I hope what I have said makes sense as I struggle with writing)

This post is not made to mock any form of addiction as addiction is a horrible disease and I hope that if you or anyone you know is suffering from an addiction I hope you or them get better <33

The crows as birds other than crows:)

Kaz: a raven. Yes it’s basic and easy but he literally is a crow and in my brain ravens are crows in lil cloaks and bowties :) (plus: second result when you look up most ominous bird on google)

Inej: a sparrow. Sneaky and small as well as smart and resourceful (but known for being friendly and kind alongside their intelligence) :)

Jesper: a parrot. Colorful, bright, fun, sassy sometimes :)

Wylan: an owl. Cute with big eyes and also smart. Also can be evil at times :)

Nina: a peacock. Fun and bright and colorful like Jesper but also more classy (but not afraid to be bold) :)

Matthias: an eagle. Big, patriotic, noble, serious, but can be more playful than people think :)

let me know if you have any other ideas!!!

The Locked Tomb series (Gideon the Ninth, Harrow the Ninth, Nona the Ninth, and others) by Tamsyn Muir

The Emperor needs necromancers. The Ninth Necromancer needs a swordswoman. Gideon has a sword, some dirty magazines, and no more time for undead bullshit. Brought up by unfriendly, ossifying nuns, ancient retainers, and countless skeletons, Gideon is ready to abandon a life of servitude and an afterlife as a reanimated corpse. She packs up her sword, her shoes, and her dirty magazines, and prepares to launch her daring escape. But her childhood nemesis won't set her free without a service. Harrowhark Nonagesimus, Reverend Daughter of the Ninth House and bone witch extraordinaire, has been summoned into action. The Emperor has invited the heirs to each of his loyal Houses to a deadly trial of wits and skill. If Harrowhark succeeds she will become an immortal, all-powerful servant of the Resurrection, but no necromancer can ascend without their cavalier. Without Gideon's sword, Harrow will fail, and the Ninth House will die. Of course, some things are better left dead. Fantasy, science fiction, horror, mystery, humor, series, adult

Yes, I am that evil

Btw: The Kaz x Inej masterpiece on the left is done by the exquisite Rosiethorn88. As you can see, it's a gorgeous depiction of the iconic bathroom scene.
