Per Haskell to the Dregs: hey guys we’ve got a new member everyone say hi

12 year old Kaz:

Here's your daily reminder that Kaz Brekker once told a five-year-old girl, he lives under her bed <3333

[she-posts-nerdy-stuff]

It still makes me so angry that Per Haskell was supposed to make more money from the Ice Court Heist than the Crows. They made four million each and technically owed him six million.

SIX MILLION KRUGE.

SIX.

Like yeah I know that’s the point and I know that the money ends up being split between Rotty and Specht, I know, I get it, I see the themes, I understand that the books include a very obvious criticism of extreme capitalism and a lot of it is an implied allegory to the American Dream even having passages arguably reminiscent of The Great Gatsby, but knowing that doesn’t make me less mad!!!

""You have two minutes to get out of my house, old man. This city's price is blood," said Kaz, "and I'm happy to pay with yours.""

Kaz brekker, I fear no one has ever done it like you.

The kid in front of Haskell’s desk was hell to look at— a plague orphan, he could tell that much. His face and neck were still marred with the slightly reddish pits that the pox left behind, even months later, and he was gaunt with sickness and malnutrition, bones jutting hard and nasty. They’d have pinned him down as a weakling, before the plague. But that was before. Now, in the miserable, scraping afterwards, not only was he alive, but half the gambling halls and gangs on the Lid were desperate to have him— or so Seeger said, anyway. Haskell didn’t know why this kid wanted to be in the Dregs, when the Razorgulls were practically throwing cash at him, but he wasn’t going to count his chickens. Maybe he preferred crows to gulls.

Kaz reporting to Haskell on the dregs:

[bazkrekkerbrokemyshin]

I sketched a scene from Chapter 2 of What The Water Gave Me by @kuwylan, featuring Wylan (yay!) and Per Haskell (booooo).

Quote under cut:

On one occasion, early on in Kaz’s rise to power among The Dregs, Wylan had forgotten about Kaz on the other side of the curtain, discussing the distribution of finances among the gang. He’d begun tapping and singing to himself, almost able to hear one of the songs his mother used to play for him. He never learned the name, because he’d never been able to read it on the paper, and she’d forgotten to tell him, or maybe he’d forgotten the title altogether.

He’d jolted when Per Haskell yanked Wylan’s curtain to the side, practically fuming. He and Kaz had exchanged some strained words, until Per Haskell relented. “You’re lucky that boy is dumb as rocks.” The older man had bit out, before slamming the door.

Anyone else ever had the random thought of exes Pekka Rollins/Per Haskell?

Ive seen a few people mention Jan Van Eck/Pekka Rollins but never the above ship.

[appolinyou]

Per Haskell:.. Now get your boss some food Young Kaz:/Brings stolen food/ Per Haskell:Tell me, is the kitchen a joke for you? /Realizing that this boy doesn't know how to use a stove/ Per Haskell:.. Now go and bring me some food. Lieutenant Kaz: /brings what was apparently stolen from a nearby stall/ Per Haskel: /Tired Sigh, that guy doesn't know how to use the stove, he should have just turned on the fire/

[parasolyaa]

I was thinking about the nature of Kaz's and Per Haskell's relationship and honestly this needs a deeper dive, but the simple conclussion I came to is - Per Haskell is an Eastern Europen Dad ™

He is almost fully absent in his child's life despite living at the same house. On rare occasion he walks into his room, loudly snorts or farts or all together and asks Kaz how old is he or does he do drugs. He then begins a monologue as an attempt to teach a life lesson and then it ends with a conclussion of "don't become like me/but also look up to me/but ur already a fucking disappointment/jail sucks shit btw"

He randomly drops his crazy life lore, and when Kaz points out that some parts sound kinda unlikely since all he does now is lays on his butt and drinks vodka, Haskell gets offended and says smth among the lines of "oh I deserved that rest, unlike all this younger generation of snowflakes. I also once broke a leg, but you don't see me walking with a cane, do you?", a.k.a. the argument so stupid to the point when it is hard to come up with counter argument

When Haskell's friends come over(other Barrel rats of higher status, I'm guessing) and he allows Kaz to "sit with them and learn some wisdom", he basically makes him be an errand boy that hands out drinks and has to shut up when his additions to their conversations are actually smart

When he asks Kaz for "a little help" it always turns into a 10hrs of manual child labour and verbal abuse

When Kaz reaches drinking age(probably in Ketterdam u can legally drink at 16, although I doubt anyone there cares about it) Haskell takes him to his favourite bar to celebrate. Ends up super drunk himself, while Kaz is barely tipsy

Haskell angrily comments on Kaz's teenage slang(and I bet my liver he speaks with a mix of Barrel jargon and fancy mercher's dialect) cause he doesn't understand half of it

He tells some insensitive discriminatory shit(something homophobic for example, if homophobia was a thing in grishaverse) and then proceeds to tell a story from his youth that directly contradicts his views("so in the army I shared a room and a bed with this one guy... If he were a girl, I would've married him... what a strong real male friendship it was, really..."). Kaz listens to all this with an unreadable expression

Heleen's "obsession" (?)

As we know, Inej got released from The Menagerie, because Per Haskell put her indenture in The Dregs. After Inej was free and in The Dregs for a while, Heleen ambushed her and said that Inej will wear her silks once again. Then, The Peacock confirmed it at Ice Court when Inej and Nina pretended to be Menagerie girls and threathened The Wraith that she will hang in Menagerie silks. Why Van Houden tells Inej that she will be back at her workplace even if she got out of there legally. Like, maybe she got much money off of Inej, but... she still got kidnapped and forced to work there for a year illegally (even if in law it was legal, yet Inej was a minor). Why you want her back there so much?

[shit-people-probably-didnt-say]

It also takes away Kaz’s autonomy

It presents Kaz as a beast you can just point in a direction to destroy whatever foe you want. That Kaz will do what Haskell tells him to without question

Additionally it removes Kaz from having any credit over the Intellectual side of pulling off barrel jobs (strategising and organising, who to recruit/follow/trust/dont trust etc)

Ultimately it means Haskell can claim the barrel boss reputation that is actually built upon Kaz’s back. Any success Kaz earns belongs to Haskell while people still believe him to be just his rabid dog

All the more reason why his take down needed to be in front of the Dregs

Kaz's "Haskell's rabid dog" nickname is so underrated

Firstly, because. Like. Look at it.

But also because he has such a strong connection to the dog motif. Protecting. Defending. However it isn't "cute" like it might be on other characters, it's kind of horrifying at times. The maladjusted way he goes about his protection gives the name to the "rabid" part of the nickname. Because he's protective yes, but in a will commit indescribable violence in the name of protection way.

And the "Haskell's" bit?? It gives a sense of possession and ownership, but a false one because Kaz is not anybody possession and he sure as hell ain't controlled, especially not by Haskell.

It makes me crazy
