Say What You Will About Kaz Brekker, But Remember He Was The First Person In A Long Time To Actually

Say what you will about Kaz Brekker, but remember he was the first person in a long time to actually treat Inej Ghafa like a person.

I can't convey to enough the brilliance of casting a VA with a strong accent to play Viktor in Arcane. No one else in the undercity has an accent. Just him. Just the one who went to Piltover and climbed to the top.

I don't even know if it was on purpose but if it was it was brilliant. All the people in power who like Viktor forget where he's from or view him as not like the others while they shit on Zaun. The accent quite literally gives voice to the feeling that he doesn't belong, as well as reminding the audience that he's an immigrant.

I'm really interested to see if Peni and Hobie intereact in the next spiderverse movie because he has a habit of taking younger teens under his wing, and I wonder what will happen when he sees another potential sibling.

I often think about that scene of Sevika being soft and advising Silco about Jinx. I often think about the fact that she knew Powder before. I wonder if after Silco took her in, Sevika ever tied her shoes, watched her play, or picked her up when she fell. I wonder what it was like for Sevika to watch Silco destroy a little girl's sanity and know she couldn't do anything about it.

I had this dream last night that Palestinian refugees were crossing some kind of border. I don't remember where, but Israel decided to drop bombs right then.

I was there, and a small boy I'd seen was blown to pieces. I think most of him was destroyed, or completely blown far away, but I managed to find his foot. I spent the rest of the dream trying to find his mother. I thought she could at least bury that, since I couldn't find the rest of them.

Kanej Headcanons

Let me be clear, these are headcanons for once they've both done a lot of healing

Because there's a lot of physical closeness here

Inej loves to just plop herself down on Kaz's good leg and let him rest his chin on the top of her head

Kaz is secretly going mad with joy every time she does, but he tries to play it cool

He has so many pet names for her, but his favorite thing to call her is treasure

You might think Kaz is the more protective one, but it's actually Inej

She gets very upset when he faces ableism and will threaten to give others a bad leg to match his

He thinks it's the sweetest thing ever

"I am a strong independent woman who doesn't need a man, but I still want my husband to wrap me up in blankets after a hard day and cuddle me and kiss my face while he hand feeds me." -Inej Ghafa

Oh did I mention they're married?

They probably had two weddings, one in Kerch and one in Ravka

Kaz probably likes giving Inej expensive gifts that she says she doesn't need

He also likes to have her lay on his chest when they go to sleep at night

Her weight is comforting

Every day he tells her that she's his queen
