I know this is a little dumb but I just love reading fics that have Kaz bypassing all of the Van Eck’s mansion security measures post-canon. For whatever reason it makes me smile. Like Kaz use the front door, Wylan and Jesper might let you in, and he never does. Good for him.
Whenever it’s mentioned that Wylan and Jesper will age at different rates/their lifespans will different, suddenly I cannot read. I have no clue what you’re talking about. This is a type of angst that I have 0.001% interest in, and I’ve decided that Wylan, due to some magical accident in their mid twenties, somehow achieves grisha-level aging and invulnerability. Peace and love on planet earth.
I feel like my entire personality can accurately be described as taking every quirky interest anyone’s ever had/introduced to me and getting so into it that it ceases to be cool and starts being a problem.
The fact that Jesper is like. a mid-tier fabrikator at best is actually so important to me.
So much of this story centers around the fact that these people are not chosen ones, that they have no sacred destiny or otherworldly power, but that they're children doing the best they can in a system that doesn't care about them, and all they have are their wits and each other. Jesper isn't an especially gifted grisha, and he has no formal training, but he takes that teaspoon of unremarkable talent and applies it to a skill he spent years perfecting to make something even greater and wholly his own. He isn't special because he was born that way, he's special because he made himself special.
Hi! Since Shadow and Bone Season 2 premieres tomorrow, I'm looking for blogs who create or reblog Grishaverse content so I can feel our collective excitement (!!!!).
If you do, even if your blog is multifandom or you blog of multiple things, please like this post so I can follow you!!!
