THE GOLDEN RAVEN SPOILERS

Neil Josten is an amazing protagonist and here’s why‼️ first off he gets into the juicy stuff from page one! “Oh? Wanna hear about my dead mom? Sure! Why would I lie to myself when I can lie to everyone else?” Also ever read about a character being a bitch and you wanna jump their ass and tell them they’re a stupid bitch? NEIL JOSTEN WILL!! He will not hesitate to go for the damn throat. Abuser you wish would die? Boom he took out a hit on them. Character being a bitch? You know I get it. Also he sees problems and he fixes them‼️ bob the builder ass over here rekindling connections n shit. You see the twinyards and wish, damn wish they would talk to each other, well good for you Neil Josten is going to poke them with a stick until they do!! I just love Neil so bad can you tell…

Someone should give Jean Moreau a kazoo, I think that would be nice.

I need Kevin to make friends who don’t care about exy/ think it’s cool but aren’t sports fans. I need Kevin to be told that his knowledge of history is so cool and really fascinating and “Kevin, can you tell me more about that one ancient civilization you mentioned earlier?” I need Kevin to be told that he’s worth so much more than his exy skill. I need Kevin to know that he is enough and worth something even without exy.

I don't like writing but the little man in my brain constructed a type writer out of scrap metal and garbage and now I must get his writing out of my head and onto the google doc.

I can't express enough just how important Kaz Brekker is for younger disabled people. I first read Six of Crows when I was sixteen years old and just starting to experience more severe symptoms of my chronic illness. I refused to get a mobility aid because I felt like it was admitting defeat, like it would make me weak. Then I read about Kaz Brekker- a boy my age going through similar pain and need for aid that I am, and he was Strong. He wasn't just strong in spite of his disability, he was stronger For it. Having such a strong, dangerous, and honestly just Really Cool character with a disability not entirely unlike my own completely shifted my view of my limitations. I got myself the cane I needed and I started to feel almost proud to walk with it. It turned from something that made me feel weak into something that felt powerful and defiant- like I was reminding a world that wasn't designed for people like me to live in that I will Not accept defeat and that I will continue to live my life using the tools at my disposal. Without that representation I might not have reached that place of acceptance, especially not so quickly..

We have disability representation in media, but often those characters are portrayed as softer, weaker, quieter characters. Those one-note portrayals made me feel like that's all I could ever be. Then Kaz Brekker came in and showed me that people like me can be strong too. That means the world to young disabled people. We need representation like this. We need to feel strong again.
