This scene, honestly. I just love it. especially the part where Kaz says "that's the laugh".š§”šš§”.
Also... That little "is my tie straight" vulnerability from Kaz is one of the most precious things I have read.
And also that "He had his arm around her".
The fact that they both had such deep wounds and their PTSD. And also maybe because they never really had any kissing scenes, my brain has just made all of of their encounters super intimate. And. I.cant.stop.crying.
I just love this scene so much.
she is his greatest weakness
āIām going to get my money, Kaz said. And Iām going to get my girl.ā
his breath catches EVERY TIME that he looks at her
āI couldnāt bear to watch you fallā
he imagined watching her braid come uncoiled and wrapping it in his hand and rubbing his thumb over the pattern of the plait
he has had thoughts of Inej that involve moonlight and silk and hair
he trusts her and knows she is the one person who would never betray his weaknesses
he would die to see her smile /that way/ again
he bought her a warship (I havenāt forgotten this part but I couldnāt leave it off the list because the Bastard of the Barrel literally made her dream possible even though it means she will be away from him)
āsay youāll returnā (!!!!!!!!!!) (I always, ALWAYS forget this line and it kicks me right in the gut when I reread it. He. Said. THAT.)
āIS MY TIE STRAIGHTā
I hear you and I raise it.
Kaz: If any Razorgulls encroach on fifth harbor again show them no mercy
The Dregs:ā¦. yes sir
Kaz: can I help you
The Dregs staring at Inej and Kaz wearing matching sweaters: nope
Inej and Kaz are definitely not big on public displays of affection, but just think for a moment about how hilarious it would be if they were. Like can you imagine if your boss (who is like 20 max) has this super tiny super sweet gf who leans on him all the time and you just have to take orders from this chronically angry guy who is constantly hanging onto his girl like
Kaz, as serious as ever: if you see any Blacktips take them down. We donāt want them talking
The Dregs: ⦠okay
Kaz: what
The Dregs, staring at Inej, whoās got her arms wrapped around Kazās stomach and her head leaning on his arm: nothing
Iāve taken knives, bullets, and too many punches to count, all for a little piece of this town. This is the city I bled for. And if Ketterdam has taught me anything, itās that you can always bleed a little more.Ā (Merry Christmas @romildas!)
WHY DOES NO ONE TALK ABOUT FALA
She could fight for him, but she could not heal him. She would not waste her life trying.
One thing among infinite other things that I loved about Inej is, how always, she is her first priority. And just like that, Leigh reminded us again, that as ladies, it is not our job to heal another person. So many girls(and boys too) need to take a look at this, trying to heal them, when the said person doesn't put in as much effort as their SO does.
And my love for Kaz Brekker is just never ending. And I can see why Inej would say that Kaz is worth saving. She noticed Kaz trying. This part where he held her hand. Just that. It might be a small gesture but we can see it must take a lot of courage, for Kaz , to do that.
And I just love the effort he wants to take, he is trying to take, trying to go the extra mile. And it's not just for Inej. I feel he is doing it for himself too. And I love him so much. For all of it.
Friend: are you okay?

Me:[ Kaz slowly becomes more comfortable with physical contact with Inej. They share a bed on her ship and he always slips his gloves under his pillow. Inej won't allow him under the covers if he doesn't. Without gloves or not at all. Sometimes the dark harbor and dead bodies creeps back through his dreams and he bolts from the bed in a cold sweat, thinking the body he holds is Jordie and the lapping of the water is the harbor. Kaz escapes onto deck looking over the inky black water,his fingers flexing over the lifeless wood. Sometimes Inej will slip from the sheets to go stand silently beside his side until his hand seeks out her warm fingers, reminding himself who she was. That she was alive and breathing. That he wasn't that eight year old boy anymore. Sometimes she stays in bed and he doesn't return till the morning. ]
Me: I'm fine
I know there are many iconic scenes in the book but why doesn't anyone mention the scene where Kaz proposes to surrender alone and everyone in the gang refuses without thinking while the whole city chases the crows, and he probably knew that if he surrendered he would be killed
