i’m so pissed cause all the actors did a great job and portrayed the characters well but the storyline was just garbage
#for me it was like#like the first ep was so fast and I was like holy mother of god#but as I was watching I generally was like I’m enjoying this a lot :) I care about people that I’ve never read before :) this is so fun#and now that I’ve had a day of watching it all through#I understand that it was faaaaast#and I don’t think that I liked that ck was half of the crows storyline#however#I can see how they decided to include ck elements for them bc their situation is similar between books and show#like at the end of six of crows a bunch of crazy stuff happened and they’re headed home with nothing#at the end of the first season a bunch of crazy stuff happened and they’re coming home with nothing#however again#it’s soooo strange bc they’ve also included soc things and they’re out of order to ck things#like why are kaz and inej having the patch up scene /before/ she tells him that she’ll have him without armor or not at all?#idk like going into ck for the crows for this kind of made sense to me#but their development wasn’t accurate enough to soc in s1 to set the stage#so they were in this weird spot of our fake story for them last time brought them to a great place situation wise to get into ck plot#but we’ve skipped everything character wise from soc (which is fine!!)#so now we’re like trying to both at the same time and also making them find Alina’s blade#I see how they got there and I’m sad that it went the way it did but I can see why they were hesitant to not include things#anyway this was long

the other thing about the crows "discourse" is that on a more doylist note, eric heisserer brought the characters into shadow and bone SPECIFICALLY because he LOVED THEM FIRST and Insisted to netflix that he was not going to helm a shadow and bone adaptation that didn't feature these characters.
i get the apprehension and disappointment of not seeing a 1-to-1 blow-by-blow of the book events on the screen but the crows' involvement is not being done out of malice and CERTAINLY isn't being done by showrunners who don't like / care about / understand them. they're in this timeline Because The Creators Adore Them.
again, i won't know if i like this season until i see this season, but like. c'mon. of COURSE show pacing and events will be different from the books. that does not automatically mean that it's all going to suck or that every change is being done in bad faith or as a 'cash grab' or Whatever other negativity i've seen thrown around thus far.
as an example: kaz backstory might seem rushed based on the book timeline, given that we're nowhere near the ice court plot yet. but on a narrative structural level, you learn about it midway through six of crows -- learning about it midway through the second season of a television show where he's introduced in ep1 is Right On Pace. it's not only fine but also GOOD.
you do not need to doommonger about this for a full month before we see where the showrunners are going with it. everything up to this point has indicated that they're perfectly competent and capable writers/directors who give a lot of shits about themes and tales well told. i'm not even like a celebrity stan or anything, like, if i don't end up liking it i'll say To Hell With 'Em, but just. jst
we don't need to approach everything in bad faith looking for stuff to be upset about. it is Literally Fine. your faves are Literally Fine. adapting canon events to better suit a television format n pacing is Literally Fine. okay???
it okay. breathe.
#agree#I was just talking about this with takemitchy#it’s honestly cool to me to see a show take ‘adaptation’ literally#like ‘adapted for screen’ has traditionally been trying to follow the book in an impossible way and still being lectured over what’s missed#but it’s cool to see people who care about the source material tell a different story that is still aligned#also like I get wanting to see stuff from the books but like isn’t it better to have those moments sprinkled in and get new content#like I want to see these dudes in different situations#if I wanted to see the staircase scene I’d read it again#also also ppl who say kaz isn’t ruthless enough in the show confuse me bc he literally sent a grisha girl and the conductor to their deaths#just because the conductor tried to cross him#and bc he wanted money#it’s glossed over lmao#anyway long way of saying yes!! excited

If you said yes to the first 3 please explain in the tags what animal it was and what was the damage
#my sister’s bird HATES ME#he (we think) flew to my feet and crawled lightning fast up my body and bit my chin before anyone could catch him#to be fair he has bitten me many times and it’s probably he doesn’t like my vibes at the time#which might be my fault#but his mood sways at the slightest anything#also before this time I never had bad vibes around him and never really interacted#he seriously just did this while I was minding my business#anyway he’s a green cheeked conure so it wasn’t that bad he can draw blood tho

#put on a Netflix doc that I’ve seen before at low volume on my computer bc I’m scared of hearing monsters coming to get me#half shut blinds because I like waking up to some semblance of sun and I’m also scared of the dark#sometimes with no blankets because I remember that scene from the grudge where she’s under the blankets with the girl and I get scared
