#hey not to ruin your day but. i think that kaz would 100% take matthias's death as a personal failure

[six-of-cringe]

After the whole Kuwei auction debacle, Kaz suddenly becomes a huge stickler about pairing off during jobs. The Dregs all complain to each other about what a hard-ass he's being, but unless they want to be scrubbing toilets for a month, they'd better stick to their pairs all the way until everyone reconvenes at the end of the job, no matter how in-the-clear or "finished" it may seem. No detours, no dallying, and absolutely no one going on their own. The Dregs don't get what the big deal is, and maybe Kaz doesn't even admit it to himself, but some buried part of him knows why.

#hey not to ruin your day but. i think that kaz would 100% take matthias's death as a personal failure #his whole thing is that he keeps his deals. he promised matthias his freedom and instead he dies during a plan kaz made #he didn't take into account the period of time where matthias was alone in the city crawling w enemies bc the job was supposed to be done #it was supposed to be SAFE and it wasn't. and in his mind if he just planned more and better then it wouldn't have happened #and he just plans more and better now then he can prevent it ever happening again #i think this half-realized sense of failure would haunt kaz for as long as he continues with this life #anyway. lol silly times with six of crows #kaz brekker #matthias helvar #the dregs #six of crows #soc #tgt #soc headcanon #ck spoilers #crooked kingdom spoilers
