#Even spicier is like #Like the fundamental problem is that kos/row is just. Not well done #So I’m absolutely not one of the wierd portion of fandom that’s like Matthias was ninas OnLY TRUe LoVe she can never move on #And I’m really pro getting more canon queer couples in the grishaverse #But rereading it it really is constantly like. She sure does have a lot of psychological problems here #That are just kind of being... left there #Not always addressed #Until they crop up awkwardly in the narrative #Her arc in kos/row feels so uneven and at odds with the main frame story that it had done really cool ideas on paper #That are just... badly executed #Also I’m not saying that ninas second love interest- avoiding using the name given to not misgender him I think? #I’m not saying they are a carbon copy of Matthias at ALL and there’s more nuance from being indigenous and queer here #But plot wise there are EanOuGh similarities in terms of interests personalities and being directly and I mean directly related to jarl #Brum that it is like. Surely we should uh talk about this in therapy at some point babe #For your love interests sake as well as your own #Also I think the horrror show grisha baby experimentation site thing is genhinely one of the most horrifying things this #Universe introduced and it’s really jarring to return to Nikolai’s manoain afterwards like some of us have ReAL problems #But yeah there is soooo much about this arc that could have done better
