Sometimes I randomly remember that Kaz is the only member of the Crows who only speaks one language and for no apparent reason I find that endlessly amusing.
Like, the comedic potential here? Nina and Inej girl talking but as soon as he walks in the room they switch to Ravkan?? Wylan and Nina chatting in Kerch but then switching to Fjerdan when Matthias walks in and suddenly Kaz has completely lost track of the conversation?? Jesper saying something to Kaz in Zemeni that makes Nina howl with laughter, but neither of them will tell him what it was??? It’s so funny to me.
He would also absolutely start learning another language out of sheer spite if they did this, but I think it would be hilarious if he chose Kaelish and tried to use it with Jesper and Jesper would just be like “… I don’t speak Kaelish. I just know a little bit… I can sing in Kaelish, if you want?” and Kaz is so disappointed by this but he can’t show it so he just starts yelling at Nina in Kaelish instead. She corrects his pronunciation and he nearly murders her.
Everyone’s having fun.

You notice Kaz at first glance and then you have to pay more attention to see Inej. It's to detailed! I couldn't read the artist's signature but her/his Instagram is @_captainhooks.

Here's what I'm thinking about on this fine evening: Ketterdam has a HUGE CANAL SYSTEM that runs pretty much through the entire city and I, somehow, completely missed that.
Here's the Ketterdam map, right? We know her. We love her.
Tumblr media
BUT, let's zoom in a little:
Tumblr media
You can see very clearly here that those thicker, darker colored lines connect distinctly into the harbor, which means that they are ALSO WATER.
So, if a person with a Six of Crows obsession and maybe a little too much time on their hands were to take that map and color it so that all of the water was blue, it would look something like this:
Tumblr media
Now, I may just be stupid, but I'd like to believe there is at least one other person who will be as baffled upon seeing this post as I was when I made this realization. It's water!! Canals are a major form of transportation in Ketterdam!! This not only is very interesting to me in regards to Ketterdam’s culture, but it also changed the way I pictured the city in my head. This is life-changing stuff, people.

so we all know about “who the hell is jordie?” “someone i trusted. someone i couldn’t afford to lose”, right, but what we forget is the significance of kaz calling jesper ‘jordie’. it’s not just that jesper is a brother to him- jordie was kaz’s protector. jordie was the 13 year old that protected kaz and who kaz protected, the goofy one who made him smile and bought him hot chocolate at night. he felt safe around him. he trusted jordie with his life. in calling jesper ‘jordie’, kaz shows that subconsciously, he trusts jesper to protect him, that he could turn to him should he need it. and every time he yells at jesper, the gambler who couldn’t stay out of the red, for losing another bet, getting in debt again, all he can see is that same thirteen-year-old boy, swindled out of everything he owned and left for dead on the street. with every word he yells at jesper, he silently urges him to stay alive. with every bet jesper makes, all kaz can think is “i can’t lose a brother. not again.”

Kaz, inej and tolya literally having nightmares from breathing the toxic gas and jesper having the time of his life hallucinating talking to his mother inside neyars house while our innocent wylan van sunshine is being all happy and chasing butterflies and spitting every butterfly fact known is the most crow thing to happen in the show.

The Slat from Six of Crows - this is how I came to this interpretation:
The Slat is described as a ricketty house leaning on it's neighbours in the typical row house style inspired by Amsterdam. We can deduce that it has windows on both it's front and it's back from the fact that in Crooked Kingdom, when Kaz and Inej arrive at the Slat, they enter through opposing sides of the attick: Kaz through his own office window and Inej through a pigeonhole bellow the hook that is used to hoist furniture up in such houses. Obviously there would be windows to living quarters underneath this hook, otherwise the hook would be useless and there are windows beneath Kaz's room as well, one of them being to Inej's room, from where the both of them can see the harbour on clear days.
Another clue regarding the Slat's configuration can be deduced from the fact that Kaz uses all the attick for his own rooms, however when Inej enters through the pigeonhole, she is not in Kaz's rooms (but above living quarters nonetheless) so how can this contradiction be? It is likely the area in which Inej enters is not hight enough for a room, hence a "half level" house is likely, where the rooms in the front are at a higher level than the rooms in the back, conveniently leaving a high ceiling for the Dreg's main room underneath.
We also know that Inej, perched on a beam beneath the roof, can see the entirety of the staircase and part of the main room, so she can watch Kaz fight the Dregs, which can be explained only if in the center of the house there is a wide 4-level opening, which would be consistent with architectural principles (living quarters near the windows, where they can be ventilated) and circulations & secondary spaces in the center.

guys I'm so sorry I've been MIA :( I found out that my landlord was using my rent on the staves rather than fixing my black mould problem so I pushed him out the window and told the stadwatch he must have fallen and died because he wasn't honouring ghezen and got away with it. anyway I think maybe the black mould explains the dirtyhands/sturmhond fic I was writing sorry :( but I WILL finish my fairy queen of istamere meta post once I've moved into my new lodging

SUBMISSION: sometimes I lie awake thinking about the time I fell down an entire flight of stairs at the slat when kaz was at the bottom, and he just stared at me (still lying on the floor), and then asked if I'd changed the beer kegs at the silver six yet. GIRL NO?!?!?!

Thinking about how the Dregs canonically have a pleasure house but Kaz vehemently had nothing to do with it even when he was involved in the finances of all their other businesses, and that shutting it down was probably one of the first things he did after the coup
See below cut for evidence/quotes and lil smidgen of analysis
In chapter 3 Van Eck calls Kaz “a bawd and a murderer”, to which Kaz replies “I don’t run whores, and I kill for a cause”. Whilst the more obvious implication of this would be that the Dregs isn’t affiliated with a pleasure house, we learn later that this assumption is incorrect. When Kaz pays off her contract Inej believes she’s moving to another house and Heleen replies “Haskell does own a pleasure house, somewhere in the lower Barrel, but you’d be a waste of his money there”, both confirming that the Dregs have a pleasure house and implying that they get very little income from it. Since we know that Kaz is the only one who actually does any work with the finances and that many times it’s been said that the Dregs would collapse without him not only because they would lose a lot of the fear his presence brings but also because they would lose most of their income, it’s fair to assume that the reason this business is unsuccessful is because Kaz refuses to be involved with it. I think that Van Eck’s accusation comes from him looking through the Dregs’ businesses (he has a collection of papers and information on Kaz and reads them during this conversation) and assuming Kaz is involved in all of them, and we can also follow the implication that Kaz is offended by this false accusation since he’s so quick and blunt in defending it during an otherwise lengthy and often philosophical conversation.

*jesper and wylan getting arrested*
officer, glaring at them both: anything you would like to confess?
jesper, glaring right back: nope
officer, nodding, writing on his pad: guilty
jesper, sputtering: but- what???
officer, ignoring him, turning to wylan: and you?
wylan, doing his best impression of a baby duckling: nope
officer, eyes narrowing:
wylan, blinking innocently:
officer, nodding again, writing on his notes: must have gotten lost
jesper, who knows that ALL successful parts of the plan were wylan’s and not his: oh come on-

Part one of three new Grishaverse artworks! I had the privileged of collaborating with Macmillan Children's Book on a design for a slipcase for a 5-book paperback box set of the Shadow and Bone trilogy and Six of Crows duology by Leigh Bardugo. (shown here on the last photo!) This set is a Costco exclusive and is available for purchase on their website - visit my bio link for easy access! There were three artworks in total and I will be posting the other two over the next two days in a nice little line-up (without my thumbnail branding). Or you can go to the sales website to get an early preview! This piece is on the Six of Crows side! A very recognizable scene if you've read the duology. Lots of symbolism here, and nice bright colors to represent the optimism of the scene. I love looking at this one from time-to-time; feels like a fresh breath of air. 😩🧡 See you tomorrow for more! 👋 #grishaverse #shadowandbone #shadow&bone #sixofcrows #kazbrekker #inejghafa #kanej #ketterdam #thewraith #leighbardugo #macmillian #isMyTieStraight
