I made this some time ago for my schools library contest for an illustration of our favourite book scene.

Of course I had to draw my crows❤️

I found this scene so funny. When they looked out the window and saw how many people wanted to kill them

wylan is the only other crow (save for jesper) who can braid inej's hair perfectly. i don't make the rules.

I like to think that Kaz is sort of like Wylan's and Jesper's cat. Like they hear some small noise downstairs at 3 AM, and they'll roll their eyes and say "It's Kaz again".

One day Wylan leaves the house and screams in terror because Kaz is casually chilling on the roof. "For a better view on my targets," he says. What targets does he mean? No idea. How did he get up there? No one knows. Can he get down on his own? No. Will he climb up again tomorrow? Absolutely.

He comes by- uninvited!- just to eat their food, and when they ask him to stop, he gives the "You told me to take better care of myself!" response. Oh, and he pushes things off tables, just to be an asshole. Once Kaz is more comfortable and has learned to trust his friends and be vulnerable around them, they randomly find him napping in strange places of the house as if he pays rent.

When he's sick or hurt, he hides and hisses when approached.

Sometimes he kidnaps people that annoy or threaten Wylan and Jesper and drops them at their doorsteps. As gifts ❤

The final straw is when one day Wylan and Jesper plan to take a romantic bath together, and when they enter the bathroom- surprise!- Kaz is already in the bathtub with a glass of brandy in his hand, having the audacity to look scandalized and be like "Can you KNOCK?!"

It has come to the point where he's their mean, murderous, asshole roommate who just eats all their food and breaks all their locks constantly lol

#i know i made this post already but I had so much more to add to it #so i decided to make another one lol #crooked kingdom #kaz brekker #six of crows #soc #jesper fahey #wylan van eck

I just think there’s something really integral to Kaz’s character and the concept of “was there no one to protect you?”

Kaz who watched out for all the others and saves them (albeit for non altruistic motivations). Every one of the crew would be in a worse place without Kaz’s intervention despite its uncharitable reasons, Jesper to his creditors and rival gangs, Inej to the Menagerie, Nina to Pekka’s brothel, Matthias to Hellgate, and especially Wylan, who serves as a direct character foil to Kaz, to harbor or the violence of the Barrel.

Kaz who had and lost his older brother to watch out for him. Who saw his brother fail. Who only is beginning to grapple with the fact that his brother was also failed and deserved someone to watch over him too.

Kaz who was left all alone and had no one, who treats gangs as a means to an end as opposed to the lens of family others treat it. Kaz who never joined the gangs until he was much older and only because it would give him leverage against Pekka. Who kept Per Haskell at an arm’s reach after learning how characters like him only pretend to watch out for you. Only pretend to protect you

Kaz who takes on the symbol of the crow because “they tell each other who to look after and who to watch out for.” Kaz who protects his crows, the only way he knows how. “Was there no one there to protect you?” As a character Kaz refuses weakness and believes caring for others makes you weak and he preaches this to the end but his actions demonstrate again and again that he will go down the ship. He goes back for Inej at the harbor, he wants Inej to have a net, he gets Jesper HIS guns back, he won’t give over the pareem, he let’s Nina try to get the Grisha out, he encourages Wylan, reveals Wylan’s mothers location and gives Wylan back his money, he can’t face Matthias’s final send off, he tries to sacrifice himself at the Geldrunner so his crew can get out.

And I think that’s really neat. He’s a twisted version of ensuring that no one else goes through what he did. I mean he definitely isn’t nice about it but I think that’s why Kaz doesn’t scoff when Inej askes that question. Deep down he wants that too and he makes his own, making the creation of the Silver Six all the more telling.

so last night i was thinking about that line where matthias (i think it was him? probably) tells kaz he has nothing holy in his life and kaz is just like "no you're wrong" and we all know he's thinking about inej.

and then there's that scene in the show right before they kidnap alina where kaz is in the church and that guard guy is trying to kill him and then inej matieralizes on the balcony above him so she can save his life and they're in a literal church and she's appearing above him to rescue him, basically just being the "something holy" in his life.

It's so interesting to me that the book and show reversed the first and last information we learn about Wylan.

In Six of Crows his name/identity and why it matters is literally his character introduction. The fact that he cannot read is saved for the end of the book. It grows the mystery and finally answers why Wylan is in the Barrel working for a gang instead of living the cozy merch life in a mansion. Wylan is always viewed through the lens of being Van Eck's runaway son first, his own person second. However, revealing Wylan can't read last also allows it to be an afterthought. It didn't matter during the book -- none of the Crows knew or cared and Wylan accomplished everything he needed in the plot without mentioning it. And thematically, that's sort of the point. It doesn't actually matter that Wylan can't read.

Shadow and Bone chose to reveal that Wylan cannot read before we learn who he is and why it matters. The show was saving his name/identity for a more dramatic reveal. Not sure what the show had planned, but this choice probably eliminated the mystery of why Wylan was with the Crows. In the same vein as the book, the show built up Wylan's intelligence and capability first. We aren't told who he is, we get to see it ourselves. He's smart, caring, and kind. A person who throws himself into danger and saves his friends despite being afraid and out of his depth in this new criminal world. It doesn't matter what his family name is because we know Wylan through his actions, not his family's reputation. Revealing Wylan can't read earlier in the narrative puts emphasis on his intelligence and all of the things he can do, which makes those accomplishments more impressive. And his name/identity would be more of an afterthought because it wouldn't matter nearly as much as who Wylan currently is in the story.

Three years since the Shadow and Bone TV show!

Three years since the book characters who changed my life came alive on screen.

Three years since we got our beloved Crows.

I've seen this like a couple of times recently, but what is up with people calling our fandom dead? Like hello? We're clearly here, very much alive and not dead in the slightest (especially proven by the sab + soc spin-off campaign).

We're all here, very much alive and loving our characters with all our souls
