Be My Valentine, Charlie Brown (1975)

“I will have you without your armor, Kaz Brekker, or I will not have you at all.”

Is Inej better than Kaz? Undeniably. Is she too good for Kaz? Probably. Even Kaz says so himself, saying that Inej is “lovely and brave and better than he deserved.”

But that’s not the part that matters. Because with the same breath, he refers to himself, saying that he’s “not so broken that he couldn’t pull himself together into some semblance of a man for her.”

That one line is what sets the Bastard of The Barrel apart from the pick me boys and the lazy bums. That one line makes Kanej the peak of romance. Because maybe he’s not good enough for her. But he’ll be damned if he doesn’t try.

And at the end of Crooked Kingdom, what do we see? Kaz Brekker, holding his Wraith, devoid of armor. Because maybe he’s isn’t good enough. But for her, he will be.

Inej, playing a video game: How do I play?

*Inej has drawn first blood!*

*Inej is on a killing spree!*

*Inej is on a rampage!*

*Inej is unstoppable!*

*Inej is dominating!*

*Inej is godlike!*

Inej: Don’t worry guys, I figured it out.

i might have to add the "songs that embody this character/character relationship" to my pinned masterlist

anyway here's wonderwall

jk it's actually "all the stars in texas" by ludo

i was listening to it the other day and it feels like jesper and wylan, especially with the reference to bank slips, jesper would ABSOLUTELY refer to wylan as "pretty thing"

im pretty sure the song is supposed to be a bonnie and clyde situation but im not totally sure. but tell me this does n OT give wesper energy I DARE YOU

"Small minds, blank eyes, big ol' bank slips I'll take big boy, he'll clean those drawers good I'll get that safe while you start the car, pretty thing Gimme a kiss and keep your foot on the gas, now, 'cause"

"All these people understand Is a gun in their face or the cash in their hand I wanna take you home and start a family, yeah But all the stars in Texas ain't got nothin' on your eyes When you say, "Let's hit 'em one more time""

idk why but there are so many taylor swift songs that i feel like embody the crows or embody their energy and another one is "Long Live", esp when they're in the tank at the end of soc literally fighting and fleeing for their lives but they're also having the best time ever BECAUSE THEY ARE DRIVING A TANK DOWN A HILL AFTER COMPLETING THIS HUGE DEATH DEFYING HEIST

"You held your head like a hero On a history book page It was the end of a decade But the start of an age"

"Long live the walls we crashed through How the kingdom lights shined just for me and you I was screaming, "Long live all the magic we made" And bring on all the pretenders One day we will be remembered"

"

We are the kings and the queens You traded your baseball cap for a crown When they gave us our trophies And we held them up for our town And the cynics were outraged Screaming, "This is absurd" 'Cause for a moment, a band of thieves In ripped up jeans got to rule the world"

some immediate parallels being, "Kings and queens, Inej. We will be kings and queens."

OR

"for a moment, a band of thieves in ripped up jeans got to rule the world" which is honestly so true because they beat the most notoriously strict and guarded government system in their universe BUT HERE THEY ARE DRIVING A TANK DOWN A HILL

i rest my case.
