I'm not sorry for the reminder that his story starts and ends with Nina Zenik.
No cause I need the Crows to meet up again after the events of rule of wolves. They come back, Wylan and Jesper are rich and married and own a cat named Tim. Inej is a highly respected pirate with 200 times her weight in kruger, NINA IS THE QUEEN OF FJERDA WITH A DOPE ASS TRANS HUSBAND, and Kaz is still alive.
Lol
Nina: I canāt believe you and Wylan broke the bed last night! Must have been a wild night.
Jesper: Haha⦠Yeahā¦
[last night]
Wyaln: Bet you canāt jump high enough to touch the ceiling!
Jesper: Try me.
so truth lol
That one scene in Pekkaās house be like
s&b cast announcement dropped and suddenly idk how to act anymore
Guys I went to the national gallery in Budapest (where they filmed Shadow and Bone) and this painting had such strong Wylan Van Eck energy I had to share
I can't stop imagining Kaz Brekker wearing black "B**ch on the beach" T-shirt and sunglasses when the Dregs go to the sea in the modern au, I'm sorry
No mourners, no funerals
@nouketou
it was rough for them
āthat meme is deadā iāve had some of these sitting in my camera roll since october please donāt mention it š
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.
Crowtober day 2: Tea
Jesper is highly amused by using the Van Eck teacups for target practice, fabrikating them back together, and repeating the process.
Wylan is happy to let him.
@crowtoberchallenge
Not me accidentally staying up till five in the morning to watch the whole season 2 of Shadow and Bone in one sitting
You know I think an underrated theme in SOC is that, the adults have ruined the future of the next generation. They have created an inhumane environment that serves only them. They've crushed and wrung out the lives of the weaker and the new, keeping them desperate, subjugated, exploited, and dead. Pekka Rollins, Tante Heleen, Jan Van Eck, Jarl Brum, these are our villains.
But Six of Crows also says that these circumstances have manufactured a much darker and tougher individual than these people can imagine. While the older generation are content to rest on their laurels and their ill gotten easy lives, their juniors are sharpening their pain into cruel and effective tools, with a drive that someone on top simply cannot understand.
Idk, I think it's an interesting and empowering (if not subversively harsh) message for its core audience as a YA novel.
I don't care if the Crows spin-off is just the six of them acting it out in Freddy's living room while Freddy's wife films it on a phone, I'm willing to pay real money for the footage.
If every single one of you who watched s2 (or not yet) but would like to see a continuation to their story would tune in this weekend and give one full watch (again or for the first time) of the whole eight episodes, it'd do wonders for the numbers. So if you have a netflix account, please do so NOW! It'll be four weeks on the coming Thursday and then their fate is pretty much sealed.
WESPER DELETED SCENE
guys. GUYS. wylan van eck is NOT babygirl. He is insane and unhingged. Kaz brekker, on the other hand...
Stupid faces
Very much a show!wesper enjoyer Iām gonna be honest! Especially in love with Jack Wolfeās acting
STOP IT WYLAN USES MUSIC NOTATION FOR HIS CHEMICALS
I love drawing Wylan so much so here he is in a skirt :]
soft Wesper cuddles š
fanon: Jesper wants Wylan because he is a second Kaz
canon: Jesper doesn't want Wylan to be like Kaz
Do y'all ever think that Wylan might not like chemistry as much as he likes maths or painting or being a flutist because Chemistry has A LOT of letters in it. Like maybe the chemical symbols get mixed up for him sometimes and he finds it hard to read chemical equations?
Idk random train commute thoughts I guess lmao
Little Wylan themed watercolour I did. Ignore my terrible calligraphy lmao, I'm still not used to using inks
I do like to think that Wylan swears a lot more than he initially lets on
He's all like; oh fiddlesticks, oh dear, this isn't ideal
Like a proper British lad, but as soon as he's alone he swears so much it'll make a sailor blush.
And one night after Jesper moves in:
Jesper, sleeping
Wylan, in the other room: *stubs his toe*
Wylan, at the top of his lungs: OH YOU FU-CKING SON OF A BIT-H- F- YOU AND YOUR WHOLE F-ING FAMILY.
Soc copium going strong
So hear me out; SOC video game, a similar style to like Until Dawn or Life is Strange, where the pov shifts and choices matter.
I feel like Wylan or Jesper would have the strangest choices, but Kaz or Inej's choices have the most consequence
Also, half of the interactions between Nina and Matthias, or Wylan and Jesper would just be quick time events with;
kiss? Not kiss?
Sooo on my annual re-read of six of crows I noticed something interesting about all the nicknames jesper gives wylan. In most cases it wasn't actually jesper who came up with the nickname or the teasing remark, it was Kaz.
Merchling is the most common of them but wylan was first called that by Kaz on page 130, "marketable skills" was what Kaz called wylans memory of the ice court on page 122, hidden dephs came a little after that, etc.
The thing I find most interesting is that when Kaz says these things they're seen for what they are, barbs at wylan, but each time jesper picks them up they take on this soft teasing vibe like a little kid with his first crush.
Jesper regularly tried to embrace kaz's brand of cruelty and harshness but each time he fell just a little short of actually being insulting because no matter how hard he tried in the beginning of the books he couldn't ever bring himself to embrace that way of treating people, especially wylan.
Sorry for the long post, this was just something I noticed and wanted to share!
omg guys do any of you know if there's a six of crows fanfiction in the breakfast club style?
like the movie just with the crows omg it would be so awesome
