#time to find a show to watch with dad maybe we'll give the expanse another try after the first season

[displayheartcode]

i got my mom to watch shadow and bone with me. she couldn’t take my vague comments so i told her

spoilers

– that mal and the darkling are distant cousins and the look on her face was hilarious. 

she’s been clever on picking up the fact that mal isn’t quite normal, the connection he has with the stag and that he wasn’t tested by the grisha examiners. her theory until then was that he was also a shadow summoner but deeply, deeply repressed. 

and then i told her about baghra’s backstory and you could see the wheels turning in her head. 

anyway, her favorite things are

jesper

everything about jesper with his charisma and witty nature. he’s the perfect contrast to kaz and everyone else. 

she loves the fact that he’s the only one of the crows that actually went to university 

the beautiful scenery and music 

the growing relationship between mal and alina when they found each other again 

the tight storytelling 

alina overcoming the darkling 

the heists!
