you ppl love villains/morally grey characters UNTIL they're a woman, then all of a sudden they are annoying, evil and irredeemable

[therealstormwitch]

@knife-wife-inej why are you and kaz blowing up my feed?

It isn't easy for me either.

process:

[clairvoyantly-yours]

it felt so satisfying getting to know in crooked kingdom that genya, after all the pain and humiliation she went through, had become a respected figure in the society- "a legend", "the first tailor", etc. i love how nina talks about her with awe (not as much as zoya, but yeah still) and it's obvious she has really found herself. she even retained her bubbly nature after everything.

they could never make me hate you, genya safin.

[lunarthecorvus]

she defends her family

[therealstormwitch]

@knife-wife-inej is this you?

I was tame, I was gentle 'til the circus life made me mean

"Don't you worry, folks, we took out all her teeth"

Who's afraid of little old me?

Well, you should be

( nothing special just somth i drew while thinking about TS new album …. It was suppose to have a second slide but i got tired so here it is 🫶🏻)

[caramelmiacchiato]

funny how even tho the grishaverse fandom is enourmous no one ever talks ab zoyalai

[lilisouless]

I remembered when i tried to make light fun of Zoya like i do of Kaz and felt bad because there were responses from people that actually hated her.

Like, it´s sad when you remember misogyny exists

*slides a new character across the table too you*

This one was not parentified, but they were god-parentified. They’re there to take over if the parentified character can’t make it to carpool or dies. They’re agreed to do this consciously, but they kind of never expected to have to actually do the job they agreed to. They’re will be low-key shocked and upset if ever actually called upon to act.

Things Kaz canonically does in the two years between Crooked Kingdom and Rule of Wolves:

(presumably) massively expands the Dregs' territory

buys Pekka's old club (the Emerald Palace) and completely renovates it, turning it into The Silver Six

massively expands the Crow Club to the point where it's "three times the size of every other establishment on the block"

builds an underground tunnel that goes from the Crow Club to the Geldstraat, where the Van Eck Mansion is

takes Jesper out on jobs with him often enough that Wylan has jokingly banned Jesper from answering the door when he knocks

learns about Ketterdam's Suli laborers and picks up additional knowledge of Suli culture

keeps up with Inej's whereabouts and helps her take out slavers

expands his information network to the Kerch colonies

is on friendly enough terms with the King of Ravka that he taught Nikolai how to pick locks and Nikolai feels comfortable personally writing him a letter when he needs to steal the titanium from Kerch

disguises himself just to follow people around on the streets

was planning to steal the titanium from the military base anyway just for fun

And that's just the stuff we see from Nikolai's and Zoya's incredibly limited perspectives during their Ketterdam sidequest

I 100% agree with Zoya when she thinks that "maybe Kaz was like Nikolai, a boy with an unquiet mind, a man in perpetual need of challenge" because ROW makes it so obvious that Kaz is bored and incredibly restless in his success. Someone get our boy a new life's purpose and a subscription to a long-running unsolved mystery podcast stat

[fangirlwithasweettooth]

me whenever someone gives inej explicitly south asian jewelry/clothes/etc in fics 🥹🥹🥹😭😭😭 like YES give my girl maang tikka, give her saris and lehenga choli and bangles and jhumka 🥹

[therealstormwitch]

@the-real-privateer-nikolai what is the result?

did you actually say that about me…?

Two opposite ways of thinking and yet the same result

[evellynssocbrainrot]

When you think about it, Kaz is currently the most powerful person in the whole Grishaverse.

Why?

Well. Two of his best friends (Jesper and Wylan) literally run the merchant council of Ketterdam, one of his best friends (Nina) is the literal queen of Fjerda, he's acquaintances with the king and queen of Ravka (Zoya and Nikolai) who sometimes rely on him for missions, and his girlfriend (Inej) is an awesome, ass-kicking, and well-feared pirate empress.

[dragonqueenstormwitch]

to be loved is to be seen

and it’s kaz choosing a ship for inej that he thinks suits her

it’s mal knowing alina loves the blue irises, not the white ones

it’s jesper memorizing wylan’s face and telling genya how to tailor him back

it’s david keeping a list of all the ways genya likes to be complimented

it’s nikolai designing a structure to protect zoya’s garden and promising to always make it summer for her

[exyzedd]

cannot stop making textposts😔👍🏼

Isn't she gorgeous
