Not me standing on my soapbox (again): But like I've said it once and I'll say it again, but Kaz is not the only one with trauma, and as such, should not be the only one expected to work on fixing himself for their relationship. Inej has trauma too. Like if you make Kaz talk about his past trauma, I would just as equally expect Inej to talk things that would effect their relationship. Ignoring Inej's trauma or making her the visible saint in their relationship is actually quite harmful to her narrative.

#also i realize we joke about inej being a saint (and im guilty of it too!) but that shouldn't negate her talking about the larger issues #im never gonna be comfortable with you all letting inej not process her trauma but also making kaz process his #like the actual point isnt that inej is a saint but rather that they are both learning to grow together and apart #and i can't tell you how it sadden me that some of you will blame kaz for being silent when inej was over here rejecting him when he said #he wanted her... do you know why she rejected him? bc she has trust issues. she deflects. she can be cruel! she can be kind!#and as much as i love the imaginery of her being a saint i know she is a compex character and i wish people would treate her as such #kanej #soapbox no. 1232123 #let inej process her trauma #i also realize that her hunting slavers is a form of catharsis but also she still needs to address *checks notes* her trauma
