gray’s diary . . .

i find it so funny and endearing that jesper loves lying but is bad at it and wylan hates lying but is good at it

"I asked chat gpt" yeah well I asked Kaz Brekker and he just glared at me, so I asked wylan but he was looking at Jespers lips and didn't hear me, so I asked Jesper but he was staring into Wylan's eyes, so I asked Matthias, and he started talking about djel so I walked away, so then I asked Nina and she said to get waffles, which I did, but then I asked inej, and she gave me an actual answer

I laughed out loud, thank you OP!

As far as I can gather, the Grishaverse doesn't have actual terms they use to refer to LGBTQ+ folk, they just... are there. When Tamar and Nadia get together, Alina has literally no reaction despite neither girl ever technically coming out. Zoya's only reaction is being annoyed that everyone's "pairing up". When Wylan essentially asks Jesper if he's bi, he doesn't actually use the term. He just asks if Jesper likes boys too. I haven't read like half the books in the universe, so please correct me if I'm wrong, but from what I know there's no actual words for any of it. I think that's the most beautiful thing. Their universe never decided that a certain type of love was different or wrong. It's normalized in their society to such a degree that they don't even have a name for it. It's just... there. Some people date the same gender, what about it? It's my favorite thing in the world and it makes me smile when I think about it.
