"Did the Darkling also love my aunt, who died along with countless civilians in Novokribirsk so that he could demonstrate his power to the world?" ... "Did he love the girl he forced to commit those murders? And the one he pushed into the old king's bed to further his own ends, the very one he later mutilated when she dared defy him? And the woman he blinded for not showing his unwavering devotion?" " Who would speak for Liliyana, for Genya, for Alina, and for Baghra if she didn't?" «And who will speak for me?»"

zoya, honey, you deserve the whole world🌎

She knew it was the best he could offer. It was not enough.

She dropped her hand.

Something something the volumes it speaks that the Darkling felt the need to put Zoya and Alina in competition with each other and put them against each other from the moment they met so that they wouldn’t be able to immediately acknowledge what was being done to them and unite against him something something

Wylan: Seduction's not my strong point.

Jesper: Seduction's easy once you know the basic principles. There's nothing to it.

Wylan: Oh, really? Well, I don't see a crowd of women following you around.

Jesper: Why would I want a crowd of women following me around?

does anybody else think about how all of the darkling’s survival techniques were taught to him by a woman experienced at surviving in a man’s world?

Knife throwing and Inej

(This is all based on my experience as someone who knife throws)

~~~

No one talks about the calculations that need to be done when knife throwing because you need to be a certain distance for a spin knife throw and a no spin knife throw which in my experience is much harder. So when character like Inej who throw knives, they are probably also having to make sure to have the correct distance to throw the knife (spin wise) for it to hit someone otherwise the knife will bounce of the person without wounding them or just land handle first (unless it's a double edged blade like a blade on both ends).

Another thing is having different knives (i.e., different handles, weight, design, etc) wise is that each knife has to be thrown differently, distance wise, force wise and position of hand wise. For example, it's hard to go from a heavy knife to a light knife quickly when throwing because the knives have different conditions that suit throwing the knife. It's just cool to think of Inej taking in these calculations when throwing knives and how good she is at it that she could shift between all these different knives (unless she has all identical knives).

Weather conditions also play a factor in knife throwing, in winter it's much harder to throw knives because the blade are slippery (because of rain and we know it rains a lot in ketterdam), and if the balde had a metal handle it would be freezing cold to touch/ hold. My best guess as to how she would deal with this is to wear gloves (I did wear gloves but it messed up my ability to throw without gloves and the gloves ended up with holes in them because throwing knives do make your skin callous/ rubs your skin), but I can definitely see Inej just ignoring the cold and getting on with it. When I tried to ignore the cold (I was in 1°C my hand ended up getting blue and barely being able to move after being outside for more than 3 minutes. So my best guess is Inej has some fabrikator gloves, hopefully stimulating the grip of skin, not a fabric.

Basically, Inej is so freaking talented with knife throwing, and her skill is vastly underappreciated, especially with how quickly she learnt it. She's an amazing knife throwing badass.

(I just realised I wrote a lot more than I intended about knife throwing and Inej, I definitely have more to say from my experience, if you have any questions just let me know, and if I've said anything factually wrong feel free to correct me :)

I love you, flawed female characters. May you continue to be bastions of relatability. Safe spaces where women can be worthy of admiration yet capable of damaging mistakes.

I love you, hated female characters. Picked apart for your boundaries, holding your head high, challenging those deemed “beloved” or “righteous”. Continuing to pay for miscalculations long atoned for.

I love your anger. I love your failure. I love your pride, your arrogance. I love your capacity to heal. I love your strength. I love your cold-heartedness. I love your vengeance. I love your unapologetic lack of remorse.

I love you flawed female characters, when you lash out, speak without thinking, hurt others, and suffer the consequences. Continue to learn, grow, and embrace your mistakes.

Teaching others the coexistence of goodness and imperfection. Bearing labels such as “difficult” without the courtesy of being known in depth. I love you flawed female characters.

the things I would do for this woman (she's murdered a lot of people and looked fabulous doing it)

Styling Grishaverse characters in modern clothing , p1

Alina

Zoya

Genya

I had a reasoning with all these but didn’t want to make the post too long, you can ask though

Also, this is only bassed on my opinion, if you disagree or this these are inaccurate or ugly is okay, i am honestly quite basic when it comes to fashion, I only did this for fun. I would love to see diferent opinions on how they should be styled instead

Other thing is that most of this are taken from catalogues since Pinterest images are copyrighted
