*looks for fics for an almost dead fandom*
*Finds that all the fics are on the site I get irritated with and never use (AO3)*
*looks on Tumblr*
*finds none*
"why not just write a fic yourself?"
And reveal it to the general public and be the only one to ever write a Daevabad fic on Tumblr??
I THINK THE FUCK NOT
DAMN THIS GHOST TOWN OF A FANDOM 😭
THE ONLY FRIEND I HAVE IN IT IS @killersweetie AND EVERYONE ELSE I'M TRYING TO GET INTO IT EITHER ISN'T SURE IF THEY'LL READ IT OR JUST WON'T
FUCK 😭😭😭😭

It’s been a year since I’ve read the Daevabad Trilogy and all I can think is:
I need more of Ali and Nahri
I need more of Ali and Nahri
Please give me more of Ali and Nahri

Jamshid: This is a bad idea
Ali and Nahri: Then why are you coming along?
Jamshid: One of us needs to be able to talk the cops out of arresting us when this inevitably goes wrong.

I just finished The City of Brass (the first of The Daevabad Trilogy) and I need an adaptation of these books ASAP.
But like, a true, accurate, not-white-washed, Adaptation with a capital A.
No half-assed generic "Arab" bright coloured exotic kind of music shit that Netflix will pass as the "greatest series ever produced".
I want to hear the differences between the languages (Divasti is different from Geziriyya that is different from Arabic), I want to see the different kind of clothes (appropriate to the specific culture and region they are drawn upon), and most importantly I don't want all actors with a British accent. It's not realistic, it never has been. I don't care if it's fantasy, I don't care that we are in the 18th century, they cannot all have a British accent; give me Persian, Afghani, Turkish, Arabic, East African accent.
These books are so interesting because they draw from so many different cultures and folklore and traditions, let's try not to generalise them, yes?
So the main point of this to Netflix in case it wasn't clear:
DO A FUCKING RESEARCH, THANK YOU.
