A new chapter for Erase the Shadow is up on ao3.
Since my ask had no response from anyone saying that they read my fics on here, all my fics updates will be posted solely on ao3, and I will just post an update notification on here.
Thank you all for your feedback.  I hope you all enjoy.  And as always, a special thanks to @inorganicone2230​ for being the best.

for people who haven’t read the shadow and bone/ six of crows books, but have seen the show:
- inej ghafa is a survivor of childhood sex trafficking. she has ptsd and reacts in a panic attack at even walking past the menagerie
- kaz’s trauma isn’t just pekka rollins being responsible for jordie’s death, and waking up on the barge. he had to swim to shore, age nine and barely alive, using jordie’s body as a float
- the darkling has done far worse things than are shown on screen. he is not a ‘lost man’ and alina is not his ‘balance’
- alina was seventeen upon the darkling being nsfw/ romantic with her
- matthias helvar did not lead drüskelle, that was jarl brum- matthias is only just barely an adult himself
- the crows are not their own separate gang, they are part of the dregs, who per haskell leads and kaz takes over from haskell after haskell sold out his lieutenant (kaz) to pekka rollins
- zoya, genya, and alina have personalities outside of either being traumatised or hating each other
- alina never wanted any of the power and fame and idolatry, and in the end of the books is stripped of it all. she is very happy about this
- jesper is a gambling addict and somebody who watched the death of his mother

Okay, serious discussion about s5e7 of wwdits. I have a lot of mixed feelings about it. The creatures fell into the uncanny valley, why did they choose the donut lady as a plot for nadja when it could've been with the guide, etc. HOWEVER, what I do appreciate about this episode is the meta commentary on how Nandor's culture is simultaneously erased in history classes and then mocked by museums. His culture, his writings, his garments.. almost everything about his history is completely misrepresented by the museum and all of his artifacts were stolen. He literally sees a pair of his underwear on display! He is looked at as an object, a relic of the past. The museum portays him as being unintelligent and frowns upon his writings. And that's based on their narrow understanding of him, Al Q, and his culture. The historians do not know Nandor of course, but they view him through a lense that chooses to only see him and his culture as unintelligent, subhuman even- because why else would someone write something like this? Or wear something like this? Or use weapons like this? It reminds me of those TV shows that theorize the pyramids were made by aliens. Because how else could the Egyptians have been capable of creating the pyramids? Surely they can't be intelligent enough! *eye roll*
Idk someone could probably use better words to communicate what I'm trying to say here, but I wanted to bring it to the table anyway. Oh, also Colin becomes the center of attention by acting like the stereotypical white professor who is more focused on feeding their ego than actually educating his pupils. And this ends up in Nandor being pushed out of the conversation. A literal metaphor for how whiteness obscures and diminishes other cultures and immigrant communities. Of course Colin did that just to feed off of the students. Because then he ends up replacing the museum display with a more accurate representation of Nandor (albeit for comedic effect). And then by taking back his horsie necklace. But.. everyone listened to Colin! And ignored Nandor! Lots to think about in terms of erasure, white washing, forced assimilation, how museums profit off of stolen artifacts and skewing history, etc.
Nandor is an immigrant to Staten island and he was forced to assimilate. Imagine how he must feel when he sees all these stolen artifacts in the museum, and plaques that inaccurately portray his culture and history. And people gawking at the clothes and weapons he proudly wore/still wears. This is a reality for many native and immigrant communities here in America and abroad. Being forced to view your culture, your way of life through the lense of the oppressor.

Might digitize this but for now here's some bad quality photos. They're just drawings I did at school today, so they probably look pretty messy lolol

i came to conclusion, it's okay if he sounds a tiny bit different bcs he tones down a bit of the softness, but please keep his SOFT HUSKY ENGLISH VA INSTEAD OF REPLACING HIM WITH THE ABSOLUTE STOIC DEEP COLD ONE I AM BEGGING YOU

Random Thought about s5 finale again:
If Nandor was actually selfish he would not help vampire!Guillermo with his crisis.
For several years Nandor has been afraid of Guillermo leaving, and with him becoming a full-fledged vampire the last obstacle has disappeared and there's nothing stopping him from tha- oh wait. Guillermo can't kill to feed himself now! Surely if some vampire offered to assist him, feed him, Guillermo would have no choice but always be by their side to basically survive! What a convenient coincidence that there's a guy who would greatly benefit from that-
Except Nandor doesn't want it this way. As much as he's afraid of losing Guillermo, he wants him to be independent as a vampire. He wants him to stay (or leave) at his own volition and not out of need because he can't imagine them as anything but equals in their un-life.
