A moment I find CRIMINALLY underrated is Alina saying “I’m not grisha, look at me!” because Grishas are breathtakingly beautiful and Aleksander responded with “I’m looking.”

Does Alina mean "small" or Alina mean "protector"?
While analyzing the meaning of the name Alina, I suddenly realized that the main character is connected to both Mal and the Darkling.
Her name can mean “small”, and if we translate the abbreviated name Mal from Russian literally, it will mean “small” (and his name can also mean “evil”, “bad” and “cattle”, but this is a topic for a separate post).
But at the same time, the name Alina can mean “protector.” Do you know who else’s real name means “protector”? Alexander! And this is a real irony, because whenever Alina followed the path of Alexander, she really became a protector, and when she followed Mal, she actually became small. In other words, being with Mal for Alina means being a weak child and a smaller version of herself, and being with Alexander means being strong and protecting others. It’s a pity that Alina never realized this (or rather, the author did not allow her to realize it)😔
I don't think Leigh Bardugo intended the characters' names to be that meaningful (otherwise she wouldn't have left Alina with Mal), but it's an interesting detail that perfectly describes Malina and Darklina relationship.

If I had a coconut for every time a person said "the Darkling was a groomer" I would have enough coconuts to throw them on their heads and cure their amnesia.

I actually like it when ships hurt each other in long lasting and unforgiveable ways. I like it when they leave vicious, glaring scars. I like when they leave traumas. I like when they stab each other and torture each other and ruin each other’s lives and violate every inch of each other’s values. and I like it when they fucking kill each other permanently dead.

the darkling said i have loved and lost and i can bear it no longer, i will close my heart to anyone who is not like me, love is weakness, love is heartache, the joy of loving them is not worth the pain of losing them and i would spare her from this pain even if she hates me for it
and alina said i have loved him and i will lose him but not today, i have sacrificed everything but i will not sacrifice him, not again, i will bring him back to me no matter the cost, even if i have to let him go in the end
and mal said i have loved her my whole life but i don’t know who i am without her, i want a life of my own even if it means i have to leave her, but i will go trusting that i will be able to find my way back to her as i always have
and genya said i have loved him and i do not regret saving him but it came at a terrible cost, i have wandered underground in the dark with only the sound of his heartbeat guiding the way, i have survived unimaginable horrors and i am strong enough to survive losing him too
and david said i have loved her without knowing how to show it but i would like to try, i know metal and she is stronger than steel and more beautiful than rubies or emeralds, i have never known anyone braver and i regret leaving her side before, but i will do it just once more if it means i can save her
and wylan said i have loved him even knowing it might never be anything more, i left him the first time but i’m not leaving now, i want to hear about his day and i want to tell him about mine
and jesper said i have loved him all while hiding a part of myself but i will hide no longer, i do not know where this journey will lead us but i would like to find out, i have spent my life gambling and i will take a gamble on this
and nina said i have loved him even as he hates me, i have condemned him to save him and i will not rest until i am able to free him
and matthias said i have loved her despite a lifetime at war against her people, i should have known better than to trust her but i let myself anyway, she betrayed me and i should hate her but it’s not just hatred that i feel when i dream of her in the night
and inej said i have loved him as his shadow, close enough to be near but never touching, i want more for us and i will not settle for less, i will have him completely or not at all and i will not wait, i will live my own life with the freedom he gave me and we will meet again one day when i choose to return
and kaz said i have loved her when i could not love myself, i do not believe in saints but i believe in her, i have lost my brother and i would do anything to make sure she doesn’t have to suffer the same, i have given everything so she could have her freedom and i would rather watch her walk away than ever hold her back, i will wait for her and i will miss her every moment she’s not beside me, but i will try to make myself a better man by the time she returns
and sankta neyar said i have loved and lost and i will gladly do it again, i once closed my heart but no longer, i will endure the pain of losing my husband by cherishing the memories of the life we shared, may you all find a love that brings you joy that will outlive the pain, my love is my strength and my universe, i have lived for hundreds of years and what i have learned is this: there is only love, it is the only thing that matters and it is enough
