#they're so out of sync it's all out of order i can't forgive this sorry

[shesnake]

i also think by fridging tante heleen they took a lot away from inej’s personal journey, the manipulation and abuse she experienced, the horror of being caught back in those fake silks, the triumph stealing the jewel right off her neck, all these things inej worked through herself and did for herself in the books become something solely for kaz to save her from, and sure he’s always played a part in her freedom but those steps were really important for inej to work through her trauma originally. consolidating inej’s trauma from heleen/the menagerie and his own into the one villain who was already always his to vanquish was such a bad move

#shadow and bone #sab spoilers #inej ghafa #and like. show inej is at a stage where she's ready because kaz dealt with all of it for her and she's just waiting for him to catch up #while kaz has seemingly regressed further back not just despite but perhaps even BECAUSE he finally achieved his goals??? #they're so out of sync it's all out of order i can't forgive this sorry #six of crows #i also do kind of hate that she wasn't there when it happened...... #sure it could have been about inej choosing her future while he takes care of their past but then they made it into a fight between them #but also i can't imagine her being there it was already so awkward seeing nina and jesper quietly waiting at the bar
