#Alarkling

[alinasheretic]

A moment I find CRIMINALLY underrated is Alina saying “I’m not grisha, look at me!” because Grishas are breathtakingly beautiful and Aleksander responded with “I’m looking.”

“If only I’d known you’d prove such an apt pupil.” His voice was genuinely admiring, almost surprised. To my horror, I found that pathetic orphaned part of me taking pleasure in his praise. “Why come to me now?” he asked. “Has it taken you this long to recover from our skirmish?”

If that had been a mere skirmish, then we really were lost. No, I told myself. He’d chosen that word deliberately, to intimidate me.

I ignored his question and said, “I didn’t expect compliments.”

“No?”

“I left you buried beneath a pile of rubble.”

“And if I told you I respect your ruthlessness?”

“I don’t think I’d believe you.”

The barest smile touched his lips. “An apt pupil,” he repeated

Alina is Shu attire, inspired by traditional Chinese hanfu dress💛

Alina being neutral towards the darkling is so nonsensical. In the books she still wanted to be in his arms despite everything, missed him, spoke his name and cried when he died. Removing that aspect of them makes their dynamic much less nuanced and interesting

Alina: *has a good time in the Little Palace*

Mal:

I really think Mal Oretsev is the worst endgame romantic interest in existence.

Really.

There are many canonical ships I disagree with, but Malina ? This is the worst of all for me.

Alina had so much potential, and it was all wasted on a stupid tracker ; When she could have had the Darkling or Nikolai !

As much as I will always wonder what could be wrong in Alina's head to prefer her childhood friend to these two, and also what could have been going on in Leigh Bardugo's head when she wrote the character of Mal and the Malina relationship.

Like... she didn't notice that the character and the relationship were catastrophic ? Is that the height of romance for her ?

It sucks...

Aleksander not being able to appeal to Alina's ambitious side because there was none (or was overshadowed by the side of her that just really wanted a nap) was 10/10. No notes.
