"She'd laughed, and if he could have bottled the sound and gotten drunk on it every night, he would have. It terrified him."

It had felt strange to wear a proper kefta after so long. The one Nina had worn at the House of the White Rose had been a costume, cheap finery meant to impress their clientele. This was the real thing, worn by soldiers of the Second Army, made of raw silk dyed in a red only a Fabrikator could create. Did she even have a right to wear such a thing now?
When Matthias had seen her, he'd frozen in the doorway of the suite, his blue eyes shocked. They'd stood there in silence until he'd finally said, “You look very beautiful."
"You mean I look like the enemy."
"Both of those things have always been true." Then he'd simply offered her his arm.

Someone who didn’t realise I was in earshot: I hate Matthias and I think his redemption arc was stupid because he was evil and he should never have been with Nina because he was prejudiced towards her
Me, pulling a portable projector from my bag and ushering everyone in the vicinity into chairs that just materialised from nowhere as I start handing round a syllabus and producing a binder full of notes: Well, actually -

You can love a character & still admit when they’re wrong. I love Kaz Brekker but I acknowledge his flaws (none, he’s perfect) and I can hold him accountable for his wrongdoings (he’s never done anything wrong in his life) an call him out on his actions (which are always right).

kaz: But when I do it, I’m “petty” and “need to let it go”.
