Six of Crows au where the crows stay in Ketterdam after the heist (and Matthias is alive obvs) and Colm (Jesper’s father) visits Ketterdam all the time because those kids really need a parent figure like Nina what do you mean you haven’t seen your parents since you were a kid? Excuse me Wylan your father did WHAT NOW?? Matthias what about your family? Dead? Oh. Inej? ‘Somewhere in Ravka’ isn’t that specific. Kaz what do you mean your mother is Ketterdam go get some therapy please. And so Jesper’s dad adopts his son’s whole friend group

Things Kaz canonically does in the two years between Crooked Kingdom and Rule of Wolves:
(presumably) massively expands the Dregs' territory
buys Pekka's old club (the Emerald Palace) and completely renovates it, turning it into The Silver Six
massively expands the Crow Club to the point where it's "three times the size of every other establishment on the block"
builds an underground tunnel that goes from the Crow Club to the Geldstraat, where the Van Eck Mansion is
takes Jesper out on jobs with him often enough that Wylan has jokingly banned Jesper from answering the door when he knocks
learns about Ketterdam's Suli laborers and picks up additional knowledge of Suli culture
keeps up with Inej's whereabouts and helps her take out slavers
expands his information network to the Kerch colonies
is on friendly enough terms with the King of Ravka that he taught Nikolai how to pick locks and Nikolai feels comfortable personally writing him a letter when he needs to steal the titanium from Kerch
disguises himself just to follow people around on the streets
was planning to steal the titanium from the military base anyway just for fun
And that's just the stuff we see from Nikolai's and Zoya's incredibly limited perspectives during their Ketterdam sidequest
I 100% agree with Zoya when she thinks that "maybe Kaz was like Nikolai, a boy with an unquiet mind, a man in perpetual need of challenge" because ROW makes it so obvious that Kaz is bored and incredibly restless in his success. Someone get our boy a new life's purpose and a subscription to a long-running unsolved mystery podcast stat

i love that one of the main messages in six of crows is just that some people don’t deserve forgiveness. kaz dedicates his whole life to destroying pekka rollins, and people may not understand it, but no one tries to change his mind. when he finally tells inej that pekka killed his brother, she responds by telling him that they’ll destroy him for it. inej, the kindest and most mature character, doesn’t believe that powerful men who prey on children deserve mercy. and she has her own demons, too. she handles them a bit better than kaz, but at the end of the day, she dedicates her life to hunting down people like the ones who hurt her. nina and matthias never stop haunting jarl brum. matthias is a country traitor dating the most “unnatural” grisha the world has ever seen. and nina… of course it’s nina who destroys him in the end, tearing him down and then dating his child. because that’s the story that jarl laid out for her. one of his soldiers killed matthias so she uses her second chance at love as her vengeance. even wylan, who believed that he deserved what happened to him, learns to hate his father. if not for himself, than for his mother. “i’m here for her” repeats in his head like a battle cry. he was content on disappearing until he finds marya and decides, “no, jan van eck isn’t going to get his wish. i’m not going anywhere.” and he tears down his father’s reputation and takes his place in the merchant counsel and becomes his father’s greatest nightmare. all this, i guess, to say that there is no perfect victim. and if the only reason you’re still living is out of spite, it’s okay. because at least you’re living

“you guys are forgetting that wylan was a bitch in the books” “you guys are forgetting that wylan is unhinged” no! YOU guys are forgetting that that wylan had a wide-eyed, generous way of looking at the world. that he didn’t let the barrel knock the goodness out of him. that he never wanted to be a criminal and gave it up as soon as he could. that the only thing that differentiated his eyes from his father’s was the kindness that shone in them

every single relationship dynamic in six of crows is completely unmatched idc. because kaz wanted inej to stay in ketterdam with him and inej wanted jesper to stop treating his pain like it was something he imagined and jesper thought that wylan’s kiss was better than the spin of makker’s wheel and inej told wylan that he was not his father and kaz told wylan that not being able to read didn’t make him weak and nina was glad that kaz was alive and matthias was made to protect nina and matthias thought inej saved them all multiple times and inej said she owed nina a life’s debt and nina tailored wylan without question and matthias thought wylan was a great actor and matthias walked jesper through using his powers and kaz wanted jesper to know he was missed around the slat and matthias saved kaz’s life

funniest thing about Six of Crows is that they technically have two wizards on the six person heist crew but one of them kind of sucks shit at it and it's not even why he's on the team. he's there for guns and the wizard thing is just like a silly little fun fact about him that they only break out in absolute emergencies. it's like having a weird allergy it's just so absolutely incidental. you could know this guy for years and not even know. love that level of casual magic bullshit in a world tbh some people are just magic by accident and don't make a whole personality out of it.

Okay, we’re about to get real deep here. Ready?
This immediately made me think of that Doctor Who quote, “Never trust a hug. It’s just a way to hide your face.” 
Jesper often gets used as the comic relief and uses humor to deflect quite a bit. Even here, he makes a joke about “of course you’ll miss me.” He wants to let Inej know that it’s okay she’s leaving, that she doesn’t have to worry about him or Kaz, he’ll take care of them. 
But the second she can’t see him, his face betrays him. And the second she leaves, he starts to sob. Quietly, so she won’t hear and turn back. Because he knows that this is something she needs to do, and he knows how much it will hurt her to see how much it’s hurting him. It so beautifully portrays their relationship because yes, he’s Inej’s family, but she’s his too.

thinking about how, as a child, kaz’s favorite trick seemed to be watching something disappear, and then he grew up and fell in love with a girl who could vanish into thin air, and how we’re told that when he looks at inej, he feels like a boy again and believes that there’s still magic in the world. imagine loving magic all your life, and then discovering that magic loved you too.

“Danielle was in my apartment and told me about a party she was planning where everyone in the cast has to dress up like someone else in the cast. Naturally, she gave me Amita and for the next few days I scrambled to find a way to make that work. A very serious conversation with Freddy comes to mind where he generously offered style advice and thanked God he had gotten Kit. A couple days later, I showed up to Danielle’s apartment only to realize everyone had actually dressed up as me. It was obviously surprising and ridiculous and hilarious, but also it came at a time where I desperately needed something like this. Danielle set up a whole party themed around me because she’s an angel, and all the cast was there and giving love. It’s difficult to put into words what that meant to me at the time, but it was everything.”

This clip of Amita instantly yelling at being accused, and Freddy enjoying teasing and riling her up 🤭
Vs
Chapter 3 of Six of Crows, where Kaz talks about how he enjoys riling up Inej and is satisfied by the little furrow between her black brows 🤭
Tumblr media
“She blew out an exasperated breath. [...] and for some reason Kaz loved to rile her. [...] There was always something so satisfying about the little furrow between her black brows.”
