#grisha trilogy

not enough love in this fandom for Genya Safin killing her rapist by putting poison on her body so all he needed to do to avoid death was not come to her room in the first place.

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.

I feel like ppl over exaggerate how emotionless Kaz really is so, when Freddy Carter played him with actual emotions they said it was inaccurate. Guys he literally humors half of Jesper's jokes in the books, he's really not that serious. He has a sense of humor, he shows appreciation for those he loves. Freddy's Kaz is more open with his words (even then he's still unable to truly open up) but the guy is not inaccurate just bc he refuses to play Kaz Brekker as a non chalant dark romance love interest who only cares about Inej.

i didn't suffer through three books and read “it's my own name i'm afraid of forgetting.”/“i want you to know my name, the name i was given not the title i took for myself. will you have it, alina?”/“your name is tattooed on your heart.” only for netflix to throw it away and replace it with “please, call me aleksander.” in literally the second episode.
