I understand the Darkling is a complex character, had good intentions, yadayada, etc etc. HOWEVER, I will never understand Darklina. Like he literally said, “I will strip away all that you know, all that you love, until you have no shelter but mine.” The definition of toxic and abusive.

Unfortunately way too real

i miss kanej.

Thinking about how 17 year old Kaz Brekker could determine that Sturmhond was the King of Ravka within two minutes of meeting him, yet the Darkling (thousand year old immortal) could not discern that even after TWO WEEKS on a ship with him. Not to mention that Kaz had never even seen Nikolai’s face and the Darkling had literally met him before?!?

Me when Kaleidoscope starts playing

ok but like the concept of Ghezen and mercantry being the religion and law in Ketterdam and Kerch is so cool to me and I think it should be talked about more

like it's so casual in canon but I want more details

Happy 9th birthday to:

“Please, my darling Inej, treasure of my heart, won’t you do me the honor of acquiring me a new hat?”

“Who’s Mark?”

“Scheming face?”

“Definitely”

“I protect my investments”

“My ghost won’t associate with your ghost”

“Because I’ve been looking for an excuse to talk to you for two days”

“We could wake them up”

“SHED LAUGHED AND IF HE COULD HAVE BOTTLED THE SOUND AND GOTTEN DRUNK ON IT EVERY NIGHT, HE WOULD HAVE. IT TERRIFIED HIM”

“She was lovely and brave and better than anything he deserved. That he was twisted, crooked, wrong, but not so broke that he couldn’t pull himself together into SOME SEMBLANCE OF A MAN FOR HER. THAT WITHOUT MEANING TO, HED BEGUN TO LEAN ON HER, TO LOOK FOR HER, TO NEED HER NEAR. HE NEEDED TO THANK HER FOR HIS NEW HAT.”

“I. should. let. you. die.”

“I want you to stay. I want you to… I want you”

“I WILL HAVE YOU WITHOUT ARMOR KAZ BREKKER OR I WILL NOT HAVE YOU AT ALL”

“MAYBE I LIKED YOUR STUPID FACE”

Six of Crows has my heart ❤️
