love when jesper asked wylan "shouldn't you be in university" my brother in christ shouldn't YOU be in university

[queenhelenblackthorn]

the brief moment of peace before he realized what was happening and the panic set in. I'm screaming, crying, and throwing up

[spacehero-23]

shadow and bone proves that as long as you treat the source material and the characters with respect, you don't have to make everything "book accurate"

[mournersandfunerals]

why is everyone screaming about Kaz in the water? is it a book thing? i haven't read them yet, but im confused hahaha

Oh bestie...😬

[dreamsingcld]

the “calling ben barnes and the darkling ‘shadow-daddy’” tradition lives on

[bee-a-lover]

i don’t know quite how to explain it

but going off of the wylan promo we got today

he has the vibes of some guy who’s just been living in kaz’s basement for ages mixing bombs and making friends with the mice also living down there and now he has to relearn how to interact with humans

i think it’s partially the way they’ve styled him, which is very different from how he’s usually portrayed in fanarts where he’s usually very put together. show!wylan looks a RAGING MESS and i think that’s much more accurate to his character

but also just hearing how he speaks and seeing some of his mannerisms (darting eye contact, god-awful posture (which, me too buddy)) it’s like wylan’s awkward energy from the books has been taken even further so he comes off as borderline eccentric

and i am so fucking here for that characterization of him

(this post was supposed to be funny and somehow turned into a full analysis god i’m so excited for this show)

[that--funny--feeling]

I AM UNWELL (AGAIN)

"shouldn't you be graduating university?" jesper where does your dad think you are answer quickly

[waterlilyvioletfog]

After a bit of time, I think I really like the changes to Wylan’s character. He’s a lot more confident, in himself, his sexuality, and that makes sense for the fact that this is a Wylan who’s an adult, and has likely been out of his father’s house for years, not only several months. It makes sense that he’d be more independent.

[thirdwifeofriversong]

people have gotten frustrated at how the show has softened kaz’s character. he’s not *quite* as ruthless and stone-cold as he appears in the book, but the audience also can’t hear his internal monologue that’s just him loving inej 5000% of the time with a bit of revenge and kruge sprinkled in

it’s kind of impossible to translate book kaz with his level of emotional depth while keeping the disparity between his internal/external character intact

my favourite wesper photo just thought you should know

[biherbalwitch]

one thing I love about wesper (besides being uhaul gays in both book & show) is that they have a healthy, beautiful relationship with communication & support in times of conflict (perhaps the healthiest in this damn universe) while also being questionable/morally grey people who are literally part of a gang bc often in media queer relationships are either tragic, one of them is toxic OR they're perfect benevolent people with 0 flaws and yeah sure those are required ofc but I like the idea of queer characters getting to be a lil bad, be gay do crime, and deserve a good & happy love life all the same especially since Jesper is bi and I can count on one hand how many bisexual characters got to be in a nice stable relationship peacefully

[myladysprout]

how is no one talking about how Paddy jump scared me in the best way possible with how fucking ripped he is???

i was NOT expecting all that to be under there 👀

[mournersandfunerals]

Can you imagine how fucking hilarious the ice court heist adaptation is going to be? Like imagine watching Nina and Matthias try to resuscitate Kaz after he nearly drowns and then suddenly the scene switches to Inej, Jesper and Wylan having the time of their lives, stealing a Fjerdan tank? Look me in the eye and tell me that wouldn't be the greatest piece of media you'll ever see

[exyzedd]

i am on my bullshit again

none of the background pics are mine

s&b s2 is gonna be like—

alina and her s&b squad: we must use our combined powers to defeat the forces of darkness at hand and overcome the darkling and his nichevo’ya army with the strength of our friendship, love and self-acceptance

meanwhile the crows in the background encountering a nichevo’ya: HIT IT WITH A BOMB HIT IT WITH A BULLET A KNIFE

it’s a MOTHERFUCKING SHADOW MONSTER A BULLET WILL JUST GO THROUGH IT

WHAT ARE WE SUPPOSED TO DO WITH THIS HOW DO WE ROB IT IT HAS NO POCKETS

(@ the very perplexed nichevo’ya) I HAD A QUESTION ABOUT YOUR MOTHER AND WHETHER THE RUMORS ARE TRUE

all while matthias simply lies on the floor and sobs while praying to djel
