"I actually like Kaz's hat and think it's cunty," I say into the mic.
The crowd boos. I begin to walk off in shame, when a voice speaks and commands silence from the room.
"She's right," they say. I look for the owner of the voice. There in the 3rd row stands: Inej Ghafa

Something that makes me absolutely crazy is the fact that Kaz had thought of so many ways to keep Inej in Ketterdam, yet he acted on none of them. The way he actively puts her wants and needs first. He wanted her to stay, thought of ways to make her stay, and then turned around and bought her a ship and propelled her forward even though it brought her further from him. He was greedy for her but greedier for her happiness.

My personal take on the Crows’ names post-marriage
(I included helnik, just humour me, I still have thoughts on what they’d each want)
Names are very much established as important and powerful in the presentation of all the characters in the Six of Crows Duology, particularly for Kaz, Inej, and Wylan. (for Kaz the new surname that has become his identity whilst he suppresses the person he used to be, for Inej having been denied her name as a tool of dehumanisation and also as her link to her family and to a culture that the city she’s trapped in looks down upon, for Wylan the association of his surname with his father and with his family business as well as what was once a longing to disappear and not have anyone know who he was)
I personally don’t think that any of the Crows would want to give up their surnames when they got married. I do believe that Wylan would change his surname to Hendriks post-Crooked Kingdom, but I think he would keep Hendriks rather than changing to Fahey after marriage to maintain his connection to his mother. I don’t think Nina would want to give up her surname because, although she doesn’t have family connections to it, it’s a massive part of her identity and her love for Matthias is unending but she’s not going to compromise who she is for it - especially considering her fear of disconnection from Ravkan culture and the fact that taking Helvar would be taking a Fjerdan name. Matthias would absolutely respect the hell out of that, and I can see them having a very open discussion about the possibility of him taking on Zenik but I don’t see him being ultimately comfortable with it because his family is very important to him and he’s the only living connection to them, plus he was raised with antiquated gender roles that he is in the process of unlearning and has his own complexities in terms of his relationship with Ravka and may not feel comfortable taking on a Ravkan name. I can see them both hyphenating, but I think it’s more likely that they would each keep their own names and their kids would hyphenate Helvar-Zenik. Wylan and Jesper I think would both keep their names and their kids would either hyphenate Hendriks-Fahey or keep Hendriks for the purpose of the business being under Wylan’s name, personally I think Jesper would want his name in there for the kids but idk. I can also see them adopting older children, in which case they’d keep their own surnames or Jesper and Wylan would encourage them to choose whatever they want to themselves when they are in a safe and healthy position to think about it, similarly to Wylan choosing to take on Hendriks, but that would be highly dependent on their personal circumstances pre- and post- adoption. Kaz and Inej I’ve seen a lot of discussion about and I absolutely get why; for me they would each keep their own names but their children would take Ghafa rather than Brekker, but honestly I like every variation I’ve seen I personally just don’t see Inej ever taking Brekker. Maybe Reitveld, but I don’t think she’d take Brekker. Inej’s experiences at the Menagerie so directly involved both the loss of her culture and the forced appropriation and sexualisation of it and so much of her journey is about reclaiming her power and everything that the city did to her I just don’t think she would ever want to lose her connection to her heritage or to her parents when she lost them for such a significant period, and I honestly don’t know that Kaz would want his kids to take on Brekker because everything that name represents to him will forever be connected to the period of his life where he was at his lowest and his mind was at its darkest, I don’t think that the Kaz Brekker he invented had a future and I don’t think he was supposed to, he was purely a creature born of revenge that was birthed in the harbours of Ketterdam with nothing but revenge burning a hole in his heart. If he chose to return to Reitveld then I see that as a far more likely surname for their kids than Brekker, but I also don’t see Kaz having any particular qualms over his children being Ghafa’s I’m just not convinced he would take the name on himself
Anyway these are obvs just my opinions and if anyone differs let me know, I’d be interested to know if I fall in a similar place to most folks or not :)

Inej: Remember everyone, violence is never the answer.
Kaz: You're right, Inej.. Violence can't be the answer.
Inej: Correct, Kaz. Now, on to the next lesso-
Kaz: Violence is the question.
Kaz: And the answer is yes!
Inej: Kaz, no!!

Trying to be a normal about fictional characters…
But Then, something relating to a fictional character and/or fictional couple I really love comes up…and not only am I screaming, crying, throwing up, but I am also falling to the floor, internally shrieking, and mentally hitting the walls with whatever limb I can offer.

Dad Kaz
Kaz Brekker becomes a father by complete accident at the age of 22. Unable to ask Inej to stay to help raise his child, he takes the responsibility upon himself to raise the child while she continues to fulfill her purpose at sea.
Tiny little Jordie Rietveld II trailed after his father like the baby crow he is, never straying too far from the nest. He has his father’s fairer complexion, and his mother’s heart. There are days when Kaz’s son reminds him so much of his younger self, he almost can’t stand it.
Those are the days that little Jordie goes to visit Uncle Jes and Wy at the mansion, while Kaz holes up in his room and tries to breathe through the panic and the grief. The others know not to worry, he’ll be around for tea and to collect his son, when he’s ready.
Kaz Brekker, the Bastard of the Barrel, carries his son on his shoulders as they navigate the Barrel streets. It’s no place for a boy his age, but nobody is stupid enough to touch a hair on that child’s head, knowing who his family is.
If you enjoy this premise, consider checking out my fic :)

Andrew and Renee would talk knives with Inej and become friends with her, the would gift different knives to each other on special ocassions and Kaz, Jean and Neil would just stare (they would also befriends but first of all they are simps).

I wish I was kidding bc this is so stupid but last night I had a dream that I owned the Litjoy copies of Six of Crows and Crooked Kingdom only to wake up this morning and not have them and now I’m sad
And what’s worse is that this is coming on top of a dream I had earlier this week where Waterstones were releasing a hardback bind of the duology together in one big book and it wasn’t even that I owned it okay it was that they emailed me to say it was going to be released and I went to preorder it but then I woke up
So yeah I’m very boring, but I’m also sad
