are we not gonna talk about how accurate Kaz's panic attacks are? because-...DAMN-

The Crows as the 14 fear entities from TMA

Kaz: the Buried, the Slaughter, the Web

Inej: the Vast, the Dark

Jesper: the Spiral, the Eye

Wylan: the Desolation, the Stranger

Nina: the End, the Corruption, the Flesh

Matthias: the Hunt, the Lonely

This is the truest thing I've seen in Tumblr.

This is incredible omg

a short presentation on why you should all read Six of Crows, by @hulklinging and i 

This is the truest post abt Kaz no cap. Me tho fr fr

me: kaz brekker’s character is incredibly complex and well-rounded. he’s a product of not only his circumstances but also of the choices said circumstances forced him to make, and his personality is more than just his love for inej. he and inej are two individual, strong characters, and that is precisely why they work so well together—because they bring out the best in each other, and this best already exists.

also me every time kaz Thinks a Thought: haha simp

This. Is. GOLD 🥇🥇

Trying to name every way kaz and Lockwood are similar. This is probably gonna be a long list

Dead family

They both like the sweetest girls ever but neither of them nor the girls will admit it

THE BANDAGE SCENE

When Nikolai asked kaz about inej in ROW and when Lockwood was questioned about knowing Lucy they both were like “I’ve never met her in my entire life”

Sad emo boys in black coats

“My truama ain’t nonna your business”

“What’s sleep??”

Everyone knows they have a crush on each other and actively ship them. (Kanej /locklyle)

ASSET????? INVESTMENT???

“If I have feelings I will die”

“Feeling things only gets you heartbroken so I gotta decline the feelings” kaz/lockwood

Has a bro that they would genuinely risk their life for. (jesper/George)

Flo’s “I see the way you look at her” and Nina’s “his heart beat jumps every time he sees you”

Inej seeing kaz pass out on the prisoners cart, and lucy seeing lockwood have a panic attack when being chased after the auction

Not kaz/lockwood but both six of crows and Lockwood and co have KABOOM this and KABOOM that

Kaz and Lockwood both being disregarded as stupid teenage boys by the entire industry they work in

Kaz and lockwood being UNHINGED AF

Honestly WHY ARE TEHY SO SIMILAR AAAAAAAA

This is the best fanfic ever <3

Parenthood by Kaz Brekker

relationship: kaz brekker/his son. a little bit kaz brekker vs his son. kaz brekker x female!reader.

warnings: idon'tknowwhattodo!kaz. iwilldoeverythingformyson!kaz.

legend: y/n -> your name

word count: 1485

authors note: I’M SORRY, OK? if you want to read something riddiculous, abstract and stupid then… well you are in the right place. please don’t kill me, i’ve great fun writing this at 3 a.m.

english is not my first language so sorry for mistakes

Saying that Kaz was worried was understatement. Kaz was totally panicked and for the first time in his life he didn’t know what to do. He couldn’t solve the problem with force as usual, right? But, come on this kid was his son, he couldn’t be that bad as others. Kaz wanted to believe in this but for him children were only little devils.

‘Don’t make such a face, Kaz,’ said y/n and took her suitcase. 'This is your son and I’ll be back for three weeks. Bye.’

It took Kaz a moment to realise that previously she had been saying about two weeks not three.

'Wait! y/n!’ He ran after her but she had already gone. 'Fuck!’

'Fuck,’ Kaz heard a childish voice.

HEAR THAT? THATS MY KANEJ HEART!!!!

I got Kaz.

I'm happy because is One of my favorites characters, but i'm also confused because i am really different from him

Our lovely organizer @rescatedegrishaverse over on Instagram made a uQuiz to figure out "Which Grishaverse Character Are You"? Don't worry, she gave me permission to share it, but you are legally obligated to reblog this with your results /j

I was tame, I was gentle 'til the circus life made me mean

"Don't you worry, folks, we took out all her teeth"

Who's afraid of little old me?

Well, you should be

( nothing special just somth i drew while thinking about TS new album …. It was suppose to have a second slide but i got tired so here it is 🫶🏻)

Wespers little autumn date 🍁🍁

My random doodle of Inej blew up so I made more soc stuff lol

Characters I have associated with Oh No by Marina and the Diamonds, in no particular order

Hawks from MHA

Shikanoin Heizou from Genshin Impact

Gepard from HSR

Yoo Joonghyuk from ORV

Kevin Day from aftg

Wylan or Kaz from SOC, my brain couldn’t choose

Kai from Cinder

Nico from PJO

Declan from Raven Cycle

Ok so I hate how everyone characterizes Wylan. Everyone babies him. This kid is like the teacher’s pet who has also stabbed someone and calls boys(Jesper) “pretty boy”. He’s secretly a nightmare. As much as I love soft Wylan he took to crime like a fish to water. He’s becoming Kaz in half the time it took Kaz himself.

Fantasy LGBTQ books besides six of crows (these descriptions are bare minimal, go check out the actual summaries)

The Smoke Thieves

Demons exist and are killed for their highly-prized smoke. Political turmoil with plots for thrones and for war, all with demon smoke somewhere woven in.

Wicked as you Wish

An alternate reality where magic is an important part of life, with the tales of King Arthur at the center.

Timekeeper

When time is dependent on clock towers, it is up to mechanics to keep them up and running.

The Watchmaker of Filigree Street

Set in the 19th century, this story is about a supposedly ordinary man and a clairvoyant.

The thing about this fandom is that almost everyone gets Wylan’s persona wrong. People will think he’s so innocent, and he is but in a deceptive way. He’s the kind of guy that will be held at gunpoint and being crying and/or begging for his life, the picture of vulnerabily, before he throws a fucking flash bomb at you. 

With the shadow and bone trailer being leaked and my rule of wolves book being delivered Leigh Bardugo has completely overrun my morning

As always Leigh delivering the most beautiful books

I have to say it's a lot bigger than I expected! I ordered from indigo so I got the bonus content and a poster too! I think I'll have to reread King of Scars because I don't remember anything but Hanne selective memory I guess

kaz telling inej that pekka rollins killed his brother and her saying ,, then we destroy him " oh my god we love a supportive wife

my favourite thing about kaz is that he isn't a humourless miserable serious person. he's a drama queen, constantly sarcastic and genuienly laughs. he's cruel and terrifying, but he's also just a sassy teenager

Reading the Six of Crow's duology is funny because I sometimes forget that they are criminals until they do something like kidnap Van Eck's pregnant wife to get Inej back😂

Then I'm reminded that these bitches are the definition of "you go low, I go lower." and I love that for them

I'm not sorry for the reminder that his story starts and ends with Nina Zenik.

Kaz had not spoken to Erin for a couple days. He’d spent most of his time in a corner trying to hide while he threw up, or making Matthias go over the plan again. Every once in a while he spotted her teaching Wylan how to make a chart, and giving Rotty orders. She’d make an excellent captain. He tried to hide the flutter in his chest when he saw her marking the parchment, pen in her mouth and various tools in her hand. It pained him not to speak to her- but he felt that he’d only make it worse. Kaz Brekker didn’t apologize. It wasn’t in his nature.

Erin stood tall at the back of the ship, keeping her eye on the horizon as the sun went down. Her hair whipped her face, she had forgotten a hair tie. Kaz limped his way over to her.

“Are we on schedule?”

Erin nodded before pulling out her compass and moving to the table she had fastened next to the wheel. Her hands moved over a map of the continents, pointing to about an inch above Ketterdam.

“Wzr hvre” she said through the pen in her mouth. Kaz snatched it from her,

“Try again.”

“We’re here.”

Kaz looked at the maps, analyzing them. He knew roughly what everything was, but how they worked was beyond him. He wondered where she learned all this. There was a silent agreement between them, she didn’t ask about his past and he didn’t ask about hers. Although it seemed relevant that he knew how she obtained all this knowledge.

“Where did you learn to make star charts?”

His fingers brushed over the half full parchment, it had scribbles of constellations on it. Erin glanced out to the sea briefly.

“Does it matter?”

“It matters to your investment value”

Of course. Everything came with a price tag. Erin thought for a moment

“I didn’t go to a school for it, if that’s what your getting at.”

He didn’t have to know about her father. Kaz nodded, fidgeting with the sextant. He wanted to know more, he wanted to know everything, really.

“A family member then?”

Erin faltered for a moment.

“Where did you learn to lock pick?”

Kaz furrowed his brows. Point taken. Thinking about Jordie was painful, and this mystery person was probably painful for her to talk about as well. He cleared his throat, thinking of something else to say. Kaz never found stars that interesting, he preferred to focus on the things he could steal.

“Have you sailed to Fierda before?”

Erin chuckled. It was sweet with a bitter aftertaste.

“No. I haven’t.”

“Then how do you know where we’re going?”

“Figuring it out as we go”

Kaz looked at her with concern.

“What?” His voice tightened.

Her fingers dance over the charts as she explained.

“Well, if the constellations in Ketterdam are like this-“ she pulls a chart out,” right now, then they should look like this,” a different chart appears on the table,” in Fierda.”

Kaz was a clever man. He could manipulate a lawman into committing horrible atrocities. But this…. This made his head spin. He just nodded, and acted like he understood.

“And these? He points to what looks like graphs”

Erin’s picks them up

“These are the tidal charts from the past 5 years. They’ll tell me where not to sail.”

Kaz’s lips turned into a small smile. If there was one thing to be admired about Erin, she does her research. The sun lowered below the sea, leaving them in darkness. Their home. Erin grabbed a lantern and flicked a match, lighting it and setting it down. The firelight reflected against Kaz’s flint eyes, making them seem almost green. Erin’s cheeks flushed and she turned to the wheel.

“You should sleep.” she said.

Kaz leaned against the table, watching the waves behind them as the ship pressed on.

“Rotty can take over for you.” He said, almost in a whisper. In the past 3 days he hadn’t seen anyone but her at the wheel. He was sure she was only staying awake on power naps. She shook her head.

“If Rotty goes to far of course it could be difficult to get back on track. Can’t risk missing the festival.”

Kaz rolled his eyes. Missing the festival would be the least of their problems if she passed out from exhaustion.

“You need sleep. You risk the crew sailing without proper rest.” It was more of a demand, than a statement.

“If-“

“I wasn’t asking,” Kaz spoke, taking the wheel from her. Erin simply nodded, stepping back towards the stairs. She turned, her hair shining from the lantern. She waited for him to say goodnight to her, but he didn’t. He stood silently at the wheel watching as she disappeared into the cabin.

Erin felt her blood pumping through her body as she tried to jog to the schooner. Her head was fuzzy, and all she could see was them. Her lungs filled with air she couldn’t breathe and she clutched her chest. Gunshots and cries rang out around her but she couldn’t hear them. Get to the ship, she thought. If you don’t get to the ship they're dead.

From on the roof, Jesper spotted her stunning towards the dock, and moved to pick off anyone that tried to attack her.

“There!” Jesper yelled, hoping someone would go help the Shadow. Wylan was the only one who heard him, and looked to see Erin getting closer. Sweat covered her face and it looked like she’d been crying. Erin clumsily pushed past Rotty, who was helping Wylan keep the shooters back.

She staggered over the ship, grabbing the ropes that kept them from floating off.

Untie the ropes, lift the anchor, fly the sails. She repeated it in her head like a mantra. Rope, Anchor, Sails.

She hadn’t touched a ship since… well since she came to Ketterdam. Her heart was pounding faster than Jesper could shoot, and she felt her stomach rise. Erin froze as she tried to lift the anchor, her hands touching the cold water.

I’m drowning. Where is the surface? I can’t breathe. I can’t breathe—

“I got it”

Rotty pulled the anchor up for her. His voice broke Erin out of her trance for the moment. She looked around, realizing everyone was on board and they had left the harbor. Matthias was the only one on deck, throwing up over the side.

Erin sank down to the floor of the ship, shutting her eyes. This is not the Cardea. This is not the Cardea. You will not drown, you will not drown. It took everything she had to stand back up, placing her feet on the railing and hoisting herself up the rope rungs to reach the sails. She gagged as she looked down. Even from his place on the deck, Rotty could tell she was trembling. He disappears below deck, looking for something.

The Shadow pulled the sails down and out, the boat picking up speed. It gave her a rush, and for a moment she enjoyed the wind in her face. Then she vomited.

“Watch it!”

Kaz looked up from the deck, scowling. He looked like shit. Blood splattered on his face and clothes, his usual sheened back hair in his eyes. Erin didn’t respond, shimming down the rope and placing her feet on solid ground.

“I thought you were a sailor.” He grumbled, stepping around the liquid on the deck. He gripped the railing, obviously queasy himself.

Erin held onto the rope

“I said I had been sailing. There’s a difference.”

Now that she was close enough to the edge, she saw her reflection in the water. It flickered between the mess she was now, and the scared girl she was. She felt sick again and covered her mouth, shaking. Kaz glanced at her.

“You need to be faster. If you had been gone any longer we’d have been screwed” he said coldly. Underneath his demeanor, she could’ve sworn there was concern in his eyes.

“Wouldn’t have to worry about it if you hired a damn crew” Erin grimaced as water splashed her.

“I didn’t think I needed one. Clearly I was wrong. You can barely stand without getting sick.” He scoffs

Erin glares at him, sweat dripping from her chin. If he noticed, he wasn’t letting on. She roughly pushed past him and up to the wheel, trying to think about anything other than the unforgiving water. Kaz was upset about something and followed her.

“Do you understand me? If you falter we all die.” He raises his voice slightly. Erin flinches, for the first time since they’ve known each other. That, he notices.

“Erin.” His voice is taught.

“I’m perfectly aware of the situation.” She responds.

“Then act like it”

Erin clutches the wheel tighter. She’s angry. She’s not sure why, maybe Kaz’s attitude had been too much. He didn’t seem to care about how she felt, of being on the sea made her feel. Erin’s face falls into a dark glare.

“You’re tardiness almost got us all killed and if you get sick while piloting the ship-“

“I know!” Erin yelled. She whipped her body to face him. Kaz merely raised an eyebrow, expecting her to continue. She wasn’t sure where she was going with this, her breathing was labored.

“Why are you acting like this is my fault. You didn’t have to be first mate”

That pissed her off. “First mate?? I am the only mate. I am the only person on the godforsaken ship that knows how to sail, or navigate, or anything that will get us to Fjerda.”

Kaz’s face remained unemotional. He glanced up seeing Jesper come up from the cabin. The sharpshooter looked at Erin and his eyes widened in concern

“Erin? Erin are you ok? Saints Kaz, what did you say to her” Jesper glared at his friend. Kaz shifted his weight.

“Reminding my Shadow that we’ll be fish food if she’s late again.”

Jesper puts his arms around Erin, who was clearly not hearing their conversation. He felt her shaking, and bet that Nina could hear her heart beat, even from below deck.

“She’s having a panic attack Kaz”

Jesper leaned down and looked at Erin. He tried to run the dried blood from her face.

“I’m fine” was all she could say. From behind her, Kaz clenched his jaw. He wasn’t quite sure how to feel. Upset he didn’t notice or upset she could be affected so easily. It’s not like he had a place to speak, it took most of his strength to not go running to the rail and throw his breakfast up.

“You are not fine. What happened at the harbor? You looked like you’d been running,” Jesper asked. Erin’s breathing calmed slightly and she was able to speak again.

“There were too many of them- I led five, no six of them down an alley. There wasn’t an exit.”

“And then?”

Jesper thought of Erin as a capable girl. Her shadows were not something to be on the wrong end of, but six men? He wasn’t sure how she made it out alive.

“And then I…. Then I-“

“Spit it out” Kaz said from his place at the wheel. He was growing impatient with her stuttering

“I cut them.”

Kaz looked over at her. The Cut. He’d never seen her do it, but from description of those that survived attacks from the Darkling, an infamous shadow summoner, he was sure he didn’t want to. He glanced at Jesper and the two of them made eye contact. There was a reason he’d never seen her do it, much like how he’s never taken his gloves off.

He stood unwavering in his place, watching Jesper comfort her. Part of him wanted to hold her too, and part of him wanted to strangle himself for thinking that. Kaz turned on his heels and departed to the cabin, needing to clear his head.

Grishaverse fandom

OH. MY. GOD.

Well, we're all overwhelmed because of the Netflix adaptation of The Grisha Trilogy/The Six of Crows. And what surprised me, is that everyone has so many DIFFERENT emotions and thoughts about it. The majority of us are glad but also very worried about the adaptation. All the aesthetic, cast, characters and plot development. These books are wonderful, although they tell about criminals. And I think it's just GREAT, that they made us get worried because this means SOC series are so.. So.. I can't. They're just AMAZING!

And I loved that everyone in the fandom is trying to think at the bright side and trust Leigh Bardugo. And they show, that they CARE. I've never seen something like this before. I just fell in love with the fandom. I just love you, guys! (although I don't know most of you)

I care about the series too, and honestly, these news made me some kind of a headache. But I love them very much.

I want to say than no matter what comes, we will still have the books. And as one post said, we'll have more possobilities for memes.

A moment of me realising that I have my copy of Six of Crows since 2018, when 12 year old me spent half of the night reading the last pages because she couldn't stop. Then I reread it around year and a half back, finally read the second book ( yes, took me so long to pick it up ) and annotated it. And then I did the best thing i have ever done to my books:

And I cannot stop to look at it since then every time I'm cleaning my bookshelf. Like, if this copy doesn't seems loved I don't know which one will.

I did silver edge as well! With just an acrylic paint. Does it look good? Not at all, its cracking as... But omg, does it makes me happy? Yes, yes it does

it was rough for them

“that meme is dead” i’ve had some of these sitting in my camera roll since october please don’t mention it 😭

in case you need a reminder of where the crows ended up:

kaz- still a crime boss. he needs to explore other career opportunities

wylan- businessman

jesper- stock bro and wylan's sugar baby

inej- CRIME-FIGHTING PIRATE VIGILANTE WHERE IS HER BOOK

matthias- he's dead lol (sobbing)

nina- queen of fjerda. queen of fjerda. we should have seen this coming.
