sometimes i forget crows are actual animals and they’re not a fictional group of heavily traumatised young adults im way too attached to

jesper: halloween

matthias: winter solstice

nina: waffle day (yes that's a thing)

wylan: mole day, but says pi day because not enough people know what that is

kaz: anniversary of george bush getting a shoe thrown at him

I was trying to figure out where I last saw the outfit Wylan's wearing in that scene.

Then, I remembered...

The crows as Hozier's song lyrics.

I was thinking about this line from crooked kingdom chapter 23- "That night, he arrived back at the boardinghouse to find the first letter. The only words he recognized were the name of the sender: Jan Van Eck."

what a haunting thing it is that the only words wylan can read is his father's name. how many times had he seen it? how deep was the shape of the name seared into his brain, to be the only words he could recognize? Jan's ghost can follow him wherever he likes.

imagine- you can't read a thing no matter how hard you try, and as you try all it does is remind you of the shame your father nurtured you with. and then years later, once you can remove the shame like the cancer it was, still the only thing in the world you can read is your father's name.

wake up besties new inej/wylan parallel just dropped

crooked kingdom, chapter 16: "despite the bad hand he'd drawn with his father, wylan hadn't let his circumstances or this city knock the goodness out of him. he still believed people could do right"

crooked kingdom, chapter 26: "inej was stronger than [kaz] would ever be. she'd kept her faith, her goodness, even when the world had tried to take it from her with greedy hands"

AU fanfic WHEN

The fact that Kaz Brekker is excellent at disguises implies that, in his spare time, he tries on costumes and practices characters in the mirror.

Wylan, walking into the room: Hey Jes, do you know what happened to my hairspray? I could have sworn---what the FUCK are you doing

Jesper: Welcome to my very first vlog, where I try different hair products! Jesper: *sprays hairspray in his mouth* Jesper: Well, right off the bat I can tell you this one is not very good.

the crows as candy

wylan: pop rocks (sweet but also make things go boom)

jesper: ring pop (flashy fashionista with a gaudy sense of style)

kaz: black licorice (bitter and not for everyone but the people who love him LOVE him)

inej: chocolate (smooth, adaptable, impossible to hate)

nina: chili-covered mango lollipop (hot and spicy (especially at first), bold and passionate at her core)

matthias: banana laffy taffy (tough, sweet, bad sense of humor, needs to leave his warped reality to find out what an actual goddamn banana tastes like)
