The kid in front of Haskell’s desk was hell to look at— a plague orphan, he could tell that much. His face and neck were still marred with the slightly reddish pits that the pox left behind, even months later, and he was gaunt with sickness and malnutrition, bones jutting hard and nasty. They’d have pinned him down as a weakling, before the plague. But that was before. Now, in the miserable, scraping afterwards, not only was he alive, but half the gambling halls and gangs on the Lid were desperate to have him— or so Seeger said, anyway. Haskell didn’t know why this kid wanted to be in the Dregs, when the Razorgulls were practically throwing cash at him, but he wasn’t going to count his chickens. Maybe he preferred crows to gulls.

Slowly, his limp pronounced but his back straight, Kaz made his way down the final flight of stairs, leaning heavily on the banister. When he reached the bottom, the remaining crowd parted.
Haskell’s grizzled face was red with fear and indignation. “You’ll never last, boy. Takes more than what you got to get past Pekka Rollins.”
Kaz snatched his cane from Per Haskell’s hand.
“You have two minutes to get out of my house, old man. This city’s price is blood,” said Kaz, “and I’m happy to pay with yours.

Per Haskell:.. Now get your boss some food Young Kaz:/Brings stolen food/ Per Haskell:Tell me, is the kitchen a joke for you? /Realizing that this boy doesn't know how to use a stove/ Per Haskell:.. Now go and bring me some food. Lieutenant Kaz: /brings what was apparently stolen from a nearby stall/ Per Haskel: /Tired Sigh, that guy doesn't know how to use the stove, he should have just turned on the fire/

I was thinking about the nature of Kaz's and Per Haskell's relationship and honestly this needs a deeper dive, but the simple conclussion I came to is - Per Haskell is an Eastern Europen Dad ™
He is almost fully absent in his child's life despite living at the same house. On rare occasion he walks into his room, loudly snorts or farts or all together and asks Kaz how old is he or does he do drugs. He then begins a monologue as an attempt to teach a life lesson and then it ends with a conclussion of "don't become like me/but also look up to me/but ur already a fucking disappointment/jail sucks shit btw"
He randomly drops his crazy life lore, and when Kaz points out that some parts sound kinda unlikely since all he does now is lays on his butt and drinks vodka, Haskell gets offended and says smth among the lines of "oh I deserved that rest, unlike all this younger generation of snowflakes. I also once broke a leg, but you don't see me walking with a cane, do you?", a.k.a. the argument so stupid to the point when it is hard to come up with counter argument
When Haskell's friends come over(other Barrel rats of higher status, I'm guessing) and he allows Kaz to "sit with them and learn some wisdom", he basically makes him be an errand boy that hands out drinks and has to shut up when his additions to their conversations are actually smart
When he asks Kaz for "a little help" it always turns into a 10hrs of manual child labour and verbal abuse
When Kaz reaches drinking age(probably in Ketterdam u can legally drink at 16, although I doubt anyone there cares about it) Haskell takes him to his favourite bar to celebrate. Ends up super drunk himself, while Kaz is barely tipsy
Haskell angrily comments on Kaz's teenage slang(and I bet my liver he speaks with a mix of Barrel jargon and fancy mercher's dialect) cause he doesn't understand half of it
He tells some insensitive discriminatory shit(something homophobic for example, if homophobia was a thing in grishaverse) and then proceeds to tell a story from his youth that directly contradicts his views("so in the army I shared a room and a bed with this one guy... If he were a girl, I would've married him... what a strong real male friendship it was, really..."). Kaz listens to all this with an unreadable expression

I’m re-reading Six of Crows and honestly I completely forgot about this line. It is very intriguing and shows a much more manipulative side of Kaz. He’s not constantly ruthless and rude to people around him. He knows which gods to worship to make a fortune and even Haskell is experienced enough to see this in him.
It’s such a cool part that I feel like writing a fic on it. Let me know guys if it’s a good idea to go with….

Why The "Kaz Beating Up The Dregs" Scene In The Show Is Wrong
There is so much I disagreed with in the show and adding this scene from CK is one of the ones that get me angriest. This post is clearly going to criticize decisions the showrunners made and if you don't want to read that, you can skip this post and scroll ahead. And this post is just my opinion, we can differ in opinions, that's alright.
First of all, in the books, this was a chapter in Inej's POV. In the show, Inej wasn't even present. Why is this relevant?
This scene took place right after the bathroom scene. It showed how even if Kaz told her specifically not to follow him, she still did. It's such an important moment in the books when we find out that Kaz knew the entire time that she was there. It shows how he senses her presence (although some may argue that he sensed Inej's absence in the show when he was facing of Pekka Rollins in Episode 4). And it shows their dynamic as partners, they don't leave each other, much less let the other walk to their death, and referencing the show, she watches over him. But this is also affected by the fact that this scene was given less meaning and was less dangerous in the show, which I will touch on later.
This was also a big moment for Kaz and Inej's relationship. At first, Inej says that she would respect Kaz's wishes that she not be seen because they would be looking for any signs of weakness. But when she sees Kaz getting beaten up so badly, her chapter goes:
"She couldn't just watch him die, she wouldn't. They had him down now, heavy boots kicking and stomping at his body. Her knives were in her hands. She'd kill them all. She'd pile the bodies to the rafters for the stadwatch to find... She wanted to scream. To hell with your pride, with the Dregs, with this whole wretched city."
We also got moments like Kaz stealing Inej's line and Kaz and Inej reclaiming their home. But since Inej wasn't there, those details are nonexistent in the show.
My next point has to do with Per Haskell's addition. It doesn't even make sense to add him in. He was supposed to represent the lazy and greedy people in the Barrel who take advantage of people like Kaz. In the books, Haskell betrayed Kaz and turned his gang against him. Haskell who Kaz has done nothing but make him richer. But in the show, Haskell was just an indifferent gang leader, any gang leader wouldn't want to cross Pekka Rollins. But Kaz forces Haskell to give up his gang because he just knew Haskell's gang wasn't successful or strong like how Kaz could make them be. Haskell didn't owe Kaz anything, Kaz just felt like a plain bully in the show. We don't even know if Haskell did anything wrong in the show to deserve that treatment from Kaz, but I guess Kaz in the show doesn't really care about that.
And here is my last point and what I think is the biggest and most awful change that the showrunners chose. And it has to do with Kaz's character.
In the books, this scene was much more dangerous. In the books, Kaz was willing to do whatever it took to save his friends from this mess he put them in (which highly contradicts whatever he was doing in the show). Kaz says:
"But they'd landed in a trap, and if he had to chew his paw off to get them out of it, then that was what he would do."
-> In the show, it seemes as if they took away a huge characterization scene just to show Kaz beating up some men. In the books, Kaz could literally have walked to his death if it was his last effort to rescuing his friends from the trap he led them in. A huge part of Kaz's character is that he is loyal to the people he cares about and he would do everything in his ability to protect them, no matter the cost to him. But that wasn't at all the context in the show.
Something that really first stood out to me was the absence of the younger Dregs like Anika, Roeder, Keeg, and Pim. And of course they wouldn't be in there, the whole Crow Club and The Dregs thing the show has going on messed up everything. But specifically when Kaz says his speech in the books that was adapted to the show:
"'I didn't come looking for friends. And I'm not here for the washed-up cadgers and cowards, or the losers who think the Barrel owes them something for managing to stay alive. I came for the killers. The hard ones. The hungry ones. The people like me. This is my gang... and I'm done taking orders.'"
-> he was talking about the younger Dregs. Not at all the random men he needed for a job in The Dregs Gang in the show. In the books, Inej says they're Kaz's best support, and that is because the younger Dregs like Anika and Pim are a testament to Kaz and how he built the Dregs and their reputation, how he spent his own money to fix up the Slat to make it livable, how he takes in these kids from the street and offers them protection, the one he didn't have and had to make himself. Inej says:
"Behind them, Inej glimpsed a few Dregs who didn't seem to share the excitement—Anika with her crop of yellow hair, wiry Roeder who Per Haskell had suggested Kaz use as his spider, the biggest bruisers Keeg and Pim. They hung back against the wall, exchanging unhappy looks as the others whooped and postured. They're Kaz's best hope for support, she thought. The youngest members of the Dregs, the kids Kaz had brought in and organized, the ones who worked the hardest and took the worst jobs because they were the newest."
->They are the real Dregs. They were even the first ones to defend Kaz. Pim tells Varian to quit it when he was going after Kaz again. And Anika blocks the exit when Haskell tells the Dregs to pull the alarm and alert Pekka that Kaz was there. When Bastian told Kaz he had no friends there, Pim shook his head and crossed his arms and the other younger Dregs bristled. And all because Kaz had done so much for them. They never liked Per Haskell, they knew Kaz was who to thank for, who protected them. And that was such a beautiful moment in the books that shows these kids that Kaz offered protection for were the first to protect and defend him as well. Those are the true Dregs. That is Kaz's gang. And it's really saddening that none of that was shown in the show.

Per Haskell (SoC)
Okay we know nobody would ever name their child "Per".
Which means his full name definitely is Perseus Albaat (bc Kerch names have double A's too often) Haskell in this essay I will..

I have been feeling alittle crazy with how much i have disliked the changes for Shadow and Bone season 2 and the timeline changes.
One of the biggest things im confused about is why tf they are introducing Per Haskell now?? Like your telling me the dregs are there under Per Haskell the entire time but Kaz didnt build them up lile he was supposed to? How did Kaz get this Crow Club?! If in this timeline he hadnt had a partnership with Haskell from the beginning isnt it fucking crazy some random barrel thug is trying to strong arm his way into his gang?? The reason the fight was important was there were dregs that Kaz recruited that were waiting to follow his lead and Kaz had to prove himself. Im just so confused.
I just feel like the changes made take away huge emotional beats ..
