no one loved each other more than rin and kitay. despite all the rinezhafication of tpw, the best love story was the platonic bond between rin and kitay. kitay never stopped loving rin even as her made her most selfish choices. rin stuck by kitay even when she felt most betrayed by him, they never let each other go. they couldn’t even practice with each other in sinegard because they couldn’t bear to see the other hurt by their hand even if it was pretend. and AT THE END OF TBG???? kitay would rather die hating rin than live in a world without her at all. THEIR LOVE FOR EACH OTHER ALWAYS OUTWEIGHED EVERYTHING, NOT EVEN IN DEATH COULD THEY BE TORN APART!!!

Kitay is Rin's soulmate.
They always had an inexplicable bond, something that only they understood at the same time that not even they understood.
They were opposites, very different, but their differences, no matter how much they fought, complemented each other as well. And that's why they always worked so well, because they were the sum of each other.
They kill and die for each other, Kitay lived and died for Rin and Rin lived and died for Kitay. Both dreamed of the same world, both dreamed of the peace of a free and sovereign Nikara.
Unfortunately, no matter how hard they fought, they could only sacrifice themselves and could never see the world they loved flourish again.
I hope their sacrifice was worth it, I believe Nezha didn't let them down this time.

More Poppy War content because I cannot sleep.
Chen Kitay is the most dangerous person in all of the books. He's more dangerous than the Trifecta, Nezha, Rin, Vaisra.
Because Kitay is fucking SMART.
Kitay holds the power over the greatest weapon Nikan has had since the Trifecta. Kitay can control the Last Speerly, can subject Rin to not having fire. And, if that doesn't work, suicide will end the Phoenix for good.
Kitay is a terribly competent soldier, able to fight off Nezha, who is regularly described as almost superhumanly adept in combat, for minutes before surrendering. Even better, Kitay knows Yin Nezha personally, deeply
Even worse, he's the smartest of them all, both strategically and absolutely. He has an eidectic memory which makes him capable of remembering everything he reads on the first try. He is able to understand new Hesperian technology in days, he's able to design a machine that makes Rin fly.
Kitay sits in the war room of the Dragon Lord, the richest and most powerful man in the empire, and is listened to because he makes so much damn sense. He could see the Dragon Lord's water campaign failure coming from miles away, is a strategical linchpin in the campaign of the Southern army. He is adept in personal strategy too, immediately correctly guessing why Vaisra would betray them, giving clear and sound reasons. He's, in conclusion, a brilliant commander.
And he's ruthless, when he wants to be. He breaks Rin's hands when they need to escape, he is able to design traps that kill dozens of soldiers when Sinegard is under attack. After that he manages to fight and survive the onslaught that is the siege on Sinegard, which means he must have taken lives. It happens to be Rin who narrates, who is very unreliable. Kitay is her blindspot. She wants him to be a good man, a hero. He's the most moral man in the series, but don't let that fool you. The fact that he is the best person in the Poppy War character gallery doesn't really mean much, when comparing him to, say, Rin or Daji. Kitay is willing to kill, and more than capable of it. That only he has a moral compass that still somewhat works doesn't make him a good man in the slightest.
He's mentally unbreakable, too. He survived Golan Niis with nothing but wit and cunning, he withstood interrogation for weeks at least. He manages to let the Phoenix run through his mind without the side effects on his reasoning that Rin seems to be suffering from. I'd argue that he's mentally about as strong as she is, but he is just not willing to fight her. Everyone else should rightfully be terrified if Kitay decides to come for you.
And we haven't even spoken about his wealth. Kitay is the son of the defense minister, one of the richest inhabitants of Sinegard, canonically lives in a mansion with servants. We should believe that his influence extends far beyond the city's walls.
Kitay will outhink you, outmanouver you, remember your every move, then stand back as Rin burns you to death after he figured out a way around you using your own tactics. He might not have a god, but he doesn't really need one, either.
The Pantheon knows he'd be way too powerful then.

rf kuang really needs to pay for my therapy bills. i read tpw a year back and i still haven't recovered from 'fire and water looked so lovely together. it was a pity they destroyed each other by nature' and 'ruin me, ruin us and i'll let you' and 'together? together?' andand 'it doesn’t matter that he loves her. it doesn’t matter. it’s never mattered'
''She’s the only divine thing he’s ever believed in. The only creature in this vast, cruel land who could kill him. And sometimes, in his loveliest dreams, he imagines she does''
like what the fuck rfk????????????????????????????????????/

Venka grew up to be a warrior, she was always extremely competent and strong, but after becoming a rape survivor, she suddenly became an "invalid", as if all her competence had been lost after being raped, as if it no longer had the same value.
Isn't it ironic how anything becomes an excuse for a woman to no longer have value? Isn't it ironic how survivors of abuse are always seen through such miserable eyes that we become miserable as a result?
Venka didn't want to be seen with pity, she wanted to be treated as she always was: as a warrior, and she wanted revenge. She didn't want pity and she didn't give pity to other sexual abuse survivors either.
To her, other sexual abuse survivors who fell into weakness were worthless and weak because of themselves.
She didn't believe that it was their fault that they became this way, but that it was their responsibility to remain this way. It's a raw, callous view that says more about her than anyone else.
Venka didn't want to have to look at someone and something and remember what she went through, that's why she wanted revenge, that's why she didn't understand other sexual abuse survivors falling into weakness, that's why she burned down that building.
