the way i wouldn’t trust anyone but inej to hold my drink at a party??? like mathias would spill it, nina would just drink it as a shot, jesper would leave it around by accident, kaz would leave it around on purpose and wylan would put his fingers in the cup and then let me drink it anyway

Okay, here's the thing.
Yes, they've sped things up and put them out of order, but this hasn't ruined anything. In fact, we now have a chance for a true Kanej relationship that we never got to see in the books.
We are now in a post Inej "ultimatum" timeline where they get to grow separately from each other for awhile. (I hesitate to call this version an ultimatum, it's more of a promise/threat and Freddy's acting really hammered home the idea that Kaz understands what she's asking of him.) We know Kaz is already starting to pull himself into the type of man she deserves by his offer to buy the indentures of the Menagerie girls. When Inej returns for the Ice Court job, she's going to find a Kaz who is already much closer to who we know at the end of Crooked Kingdom. She's going to find a Kaz willing to try for her.
And our favorite scenes work in this new context too.
Inej is stabbed and bleeding out?
Kaz carries her to the safety, the same way she pulled him to safety in Shu Han.
And do we really think he's going to be less violent towards the man who almost took her from him? After already admitting that she is what he wants? We're gonna be lucky if he doesn't set Oomen on fire.
The bathroom scene. Good God, the bathroom scene.
Last time he tried to help her, he couldn't even touch her with gloves on. This time, she's injured again and it's his fault and maybe he'll fail, but Saints be damned, he's gonna try.
I'm just saying, we now have a Kanej that knows they love each other. Think of them potential for longing looks and pain and trying to be what the other needs.
I am personally here for it.
(Please, anyone who can hear me. Give me a Six of Crows spin off. I will gladly give my soul.)
hope is a skill
i think about this a normal amount btw. if anyone was wondering
It’s my business if I feel the need to smoke, and drink and sway It’s my problem, it’s my problem If I feel the need to hide And it’s my problem if I have no friends, and feel I want to die

man I love the communal dice interactions in Dimension 20. Griffin asking whose been rolling good so he can use their d20 in Tiny Heist and Jasper desperately cycling through dice in Burrow's End and Murph retiring Emily's dice in Neverafter and the cast of Mentopolis swapping so they each have a full set made of each other's dice and "send your kids to camp" and the thrill of the box of doom. it's so good dude I love when people get so invested in the story they tell together that the roll of a die is the most important thing in the world.
