Look How Lovely These Are! Nadia Portrayed By Actress Joanna!

finally watched shadow and bone (the entire time i was waiting until i force myself to read the books first, but that time never came)

genya safin is the love of my life i love her so much she is perfect

not my best work with the sketch though, the markers didnt behave :((((

At least for this blog…I’m trying to wait until they’ve actually shown up. Ahhh but I’ve had so many random thoughts about Tamar and Nadia lately.

At least one will show up briefly in Episode Two and the other will have their first appearance in Episode Three.

Check out Episode One of “The Lives of Saints” if you want to take some guesses of what will happen next!

The lesbian urge to talk about how hot and underrated Tamar is.

That’s it 💚

Episode One Script:

Silent Video Overview:

Shadow and Bone | S01 E03

"We do not conjure from nothing. We manipulate that which already exists around us."

Episode Two is live! It’s…something. But I’m excited to get the ball rolling. I’d love to hear your guys thoughts! And if you are interested in beta reading feel free to reach out!

Nina is so fun to write, in my fic I gave her a girlfriend and she is probably connected to five different political/underground networks. Here’s a NINA section from Episode Two!

NINA

NOVOKRIBIRSK, WEST RAVKA

[She wears her red kefta and reads a letter in RAVKAN with the letterhead of an eclipse. SCENE change to NINA in a meeting with ZLATAN and a few WEST RAVKAN military personnel.]

ZLATAN: Still no response from the East?

SOLDIER 1: None from this morning’s river barge, sir.

ZLATAN: (staring intently) They’re up to something. ZENIK, what of the cartographer’s progress?

NINA: She still won’t talk, sir. She needs more time.

ZLATAN: I gave you one task.

NINA: The brain is a complex system, especially given stress. Would you rather have her experience a stroke instead?

ZLATAN: (rolls his eyes) I want her information by eighteen bells.

NINA: (frowns) Yes, sir.

[Scene changes to NINA walking OUTSIDE past large tents and wooden structures for housing. A long shot shows an Inferni with wild red hair and blue kefta standing guard outside a small tent.]

NINA: Harshaw. (NINA smiles and nods at him) Any stirrings from her?

HARSHAW: Not a peep.

[HARSHAW winks and walks off as NINA enters the tent. INSIDE, FEMALE CARTOGRAPHER lays on a solitary cot, motionless. NINA softly smiles and she sits down on the edge of the cot.]

FC: Is he gone?

NINA: It’s just us, love.

[FC jolts up and hugs and kisses NINA. Her name is MORANA, who is disguised as FC. They break apart.]

NINA: I missed you too. (another kiss)

MORANA: How am I doing?

NINA: ZLATAN doesn’t suspect a thing. What did you find out?

[The camera focuses on who we thought was FC but we see that her once brown eyes are morphed with some blue spots, and strands of her hair and eyebrows have darkened in odd places.]

MORANA: (counting off on her fingers) Her name is Ruby. VERY pious, has all twenty-three Saints’ prayers memorized—

NINA: MORANA, the important bits dearest I don’t need her life story.

MORANA: (cheeks redden) Right. The delay with the skiff. She said…(pause) the Sun Summoner saved her.

NINA: You’re sure? But those are just stories!

MORANA: (nods) Some other cartographer…Alina Starkov.

NINA: (serious expression) Alina Starkov…A Sun Saint in the hands of the Crown is dangerous.

MORANA: It would sway the people to them instead of accepting the secession. Does the Black General know about Ruby?

NINA: (shakes her head and hands her the letter with the eclipse symbol) The GENERAL wanted me to kill her…I’m not doing that to a girl just trying to survive.

MORANA: She’ll be on the ship to Ketterdam by tonight.

NINA: Good. I’ll inform ZLATAN of the Sun Summoner.

[They hold each other’s hands as the SCENE transitions to a map of EAST RAVKA. A sketch of a carriage follows a path outlined in bones, halfway between the FOLD and OS ALTA (which has a picture of a palace)]

Any ideas?
