#I love Kaz!

[beyondthegame]

hi, mila, hope you’re doing good! it is i again your friendly neighborhood n tallon lover <3 "feeling a flutter after something they've done dozens of times" for n, please <3

It’s… interesting to say the least. Unexpected, definitely. You and N Tallon in a room together where argumentative words haven’t been uttered yet. You can feel them brewing, and you’re sure that N’s going to get the first word in so you beat them to it.

“If you’ve got something to say, then say it,” you mutter.

With a deadpan expression, N cuts their eyes towards you. “Maybe, for once, I’d like to appreciate silence.”

Your eyes narrow. “Then go into another room.”

“I was here first,” N murmurs as they pull their drink towards them.

“Don’t act like a child.”

“I’m not, you are,” N counters. “I’m beginning to think that you like arguing with me.”

“There’s nothing about it to like.”

Neither of you have moved, yet you’re certain that you should. You’re about to get up when—

“I’m sure you’ll get the win you want in your next game considering how badly you played today,” N utters with a slight smirk.

And there it is. The exact way to push your buttons and cause a bit of rivalry chaos. “You’re an entitled asshole and it’s the reason you barely have any friends in this industry.”

If you could delve into N’s mind, you’d realise that this is something N needed. They needed to argue with you and realise the reasons why they hate you, the reasons why a friendship with you never blossomed.

But, to their dismay right now, N’s an observant being. They remember your birthday when you mentioned it to them as kids. They’re sure they remember your favourite colour. They notice the way your features shift ever so slightly when your eyes catch sight of their grey ones.

N’s never allowed themselves to think that you’re attractive. That’s what you do, isn’t it? When you hate a person you hate everything about them.

But now you’re here in front of them. You’ve argued more than dozens of times, so why is it now that they feel a… flutter?

“Was that all you’ve got to say?” you ask sharply.

N swallows hard and sucks in a breath. “Yes,” they whisper before leaving the room and leaving their drink behind.

An evening in Ketterdam

[kazsbrekker]

thinking about how, as a child, kaz’s favorite trick seemed to be watching something disappear, and then he grew up and fell in love with a girl who could vanish into thin air, and how we’re told that when he looks at inej, he feels like a boy again and believes that there’s still magic in the world. imagine loving magic all your life, and then discovering that magic loved you too.

[isthataraccoon]

just me thinking about how a man walking down a crowded road will check to make sure his wallet is still there, and in doing so tells the thief exactly where his wallet is. Kaz looked at Inej to make sure she was still there, and in doing so told van eck exactly who to take 😭😭

My favourite underrated kaz moments from the books pt 2

[jpg-of-dorian-slay]

love love LOVE jesper fahey so much, kaz rips out someone's eye and tosses them overboard and jesper's just like "would he do that for me?" not at all bothered, just wondering if kaz cares about him enough to kill a guy for him. a man with his priorities absolutely in order.

I love Six of Crows so much because the way that the whole story ties together in such a neat little bow is so sweet to me. Its things like this:

A man who pats his wallet to make sure it's there is signaling to every thief where his wallet is. He pats it to make sure it's there.

Kaz glances over to Inej on Vellegeluk when he knows he shouldn't have. He knew it was a dangerous situation, but he couldn't help but look.

He looked to make sure she was there.

Kaz: The thing about Wylan is that he's smart enough to play dumb, and pretty enough so everyone believes it.

Wylan: :]

[silly-little-gooses]

we need to appreciate the diversity in six of crows more!!!

a disabled orphan boy with PTSD and flashbacks

a POC girl who is a sexual assault survivor and a victim of human trafficking

a queer POC boy who has an addiction to gambling and (probably) ADHD

a queer boy with dyslexia and daddy issues

a queer plus size girl who is also a refugee and has to overcome addiction

a boy who has to overcome the misogynistic and racist beliefs forced on him by his toxic culture

THIS BOOK IS TOO GOOD !!

[lynsstrange]

Other YA characters taking down their enemies: massive scale magical fight scenes, complex good vs evil moral conversations, love triangles, tragedy

vs crooked kingdom

kaz brekker: so, what do you fuckers know about the stock market?

[mournersandfunerals]

you know, i really think one of the funniest parts of soc is knowing that kaz and inej heard about the dekappel's impenetrable security and went "alright bet" and stole it just to prove a point

[bruhaalla]

Okay but where’s my 6’5 brown eyes black hair thick thighs man ?

[she-posts-nerdy-stuff]

The Crows are to the Grishaverse as the Guardians of the Galaxy are to Marvel. Like all the avengers and shadow and bone characters are like “ahh the weight of world is on our shoulders” but all the crows and the guardians just want their goddamn money

I have too much time on my hands and I wanted to prove my point, so enjoy these guardians quotes replaced by the crows characters

Van Eck: [insert long villain monologue here]

Kaz: yeah, blah blah blah but WE’D LIKE TO GET PAID

Inej: The contact is making me wait.

Kaz: That’s just a negotiation tactic - trust me, this is my speciality. Whereas yours is more… stab, stab, stab

Nina: I have no need of the money

Kaz: Well great, more money for the rest of us!

Jesper: What’s that?

Wylan: Don’t touch that, it’s a bomb

Jesper: AND YOU JUST LEAVE IT LYING AROUND!???

Wylan: … well I was gonna put it in a box

Matthias: I’m a warrior, an assassin. I don’t dance.

Nina: Really? Well, in my country we have a legend about people like you. It’s called Footloose. And a great hero, named Kevin Bacon, teaches an entire city of people with sticks up their butts that, dancing, well it’s the greatest thing there is.

Matthias: Who put the sticks up their butts? That is cruel.

[isthataraccoon]

can we all just stop and appreciate for a minute how all the crows go to Kaz with their secrets? Like for a solid chunk of the book Wylan had only told Kaz about not being able to read, and Kaz didn’t shame him or do anything that you might think from a quick glance at his character, but he made Wylan feel like it wasn’t a big deal and that he was safe with the crows (and that in itself is incredible). Also: jesper being Grisha, Nina about Matthias, the list goes on

[hauntingyourself]

In which, at some point between his brother’s death and the first book, kaz actually had somehow become a demon or something not-quite-human
