Kaz's eyes narrowed. "Sturmhond."

"He knows me!" Sturmhond said delightedly. He nudged Genya with an elbow. "I told you I'm famous."

Zoya blew out an exasperated breath. "Thank you. He's going to be twice as insufferable now."

― Leigh Bardugo, Crooked Kingdom

i think alina becoming queen, wanting to become queen is part of her villain arc that the creators are going for with the finale. throughout the whole series we saw alina be an infinitely more active protagonist than how she was in the books and i really enjoyed that. with mal's crisis of "would we have fallen in love if not for destiny and shit" (which is sooooo chefs kiss i can't even begin to tell you how authentic that was from mal), alina is left to what? she doesn't have mal, so there's the country i guess, she also is lost without purpose and mal has denied that of her by going their separate ways (again, it feels very organic, not contrived in the slightest which is such a breath of fresh air compared to their conflicts in the books). so alina goes where she is needed because what else can she do without mal? and i enjoyed her villainy glinting through IMMENSELY. this is how you bring back the darkling, through alina, through the absolute horror of how someone so wholesome can go down the same path as the one who tortured her and her people for so very long. excellent ending, the more i think about it, the more i like it. she follows the same steps as the darkling. he started by creating the fold, she starts by destroying it, then comes the high of being a walking miracle plus the merzost which now parallels them as well and then leading the second army to do good - bc the darkling started out with noble goals as well. and alina even overshadows him bc she actually becomes a queen, something alexander never achieved. she's tripping on power, now everyone around her has the privilege of watching her descent and who better to fight her and replace her than zoya who already went through this with the darkling. she'll see it sooner than anyone mark my words

Post number whatever with the grishaverse future children

Zoya: that girl is going to kill me! why does she has to run away everytime we have a disagrement!

Nikolai: calm down,she is sixteen, she won't get more bratty than that. You should let her cool down, besides we know exactly where she is, she goes to the same place everytime

(Meanwhile in Ketterdam)

Liliyanna crying on Kaz´s lap: She doesn't understand me! she wanted me to babysit to "practice ruling", i don't want to change diapers or clean a kid´s running nose-

Kaz patting her head: what a monster

Liliyanna: Why do i have to be a responsible ruler? can't i be just a princess that wears expensive jewellry, twirls her dress and just sits there being rich?

Kaz: who is she to deny you that?

Jeevitha (kanej kid): excuse me, can i have some of your hair? its for my dolls

Kaz: I already gave her all mine

Liliyanna: sure take it, is not fa-(Ouch! i thought you were going to cut it with scissors,not ripping it off!) is not fair! i am not like her!

Kaz: She wasn't always perfect you know, your aunt Genya says that at your age , your mom used to be a bit-(notices his daughter) a bit of a brat

Liliyanna: and a bitch (gets hit by a flying flip flop) ouch! sorry aunt Inej

Kaz: Look, you are missing a bit shot. You have meet my friends, they only follow me when there is money to gain, they don't respect me like they should. But you? you can have your own army of loyal comrades, this kids know you are the princess, older than them which children often think equals "wiser". You can teach this kids to venerate you inconditionally, to teach them your ways...

Liliyanna: you saying...they will do what i want?

Kaz: If you learn how to handle them, they will. You can be their leader,their ruler...their god

Liliyanna: a god? that sounds fine

Kaz: see? kids are more usefull than you give credit too. So you can go and star making your own team or gang (but "crows" is a name already taken, just saying) maybe going into not so legal matters-

Liliyanna: yes!

Kaz: just don't take Jeevitha into your followers, she is going well with her trinkets mini store and would rather focus on that

#zoya will thank kaz for that #then unthank him when Liliyanna tries to make a religion bassed on adoring her #inej: i can excuse corrupting a teen but i draw the line at swearing in front of my daugther #six of crows #netflix shadow and bone #leigh bardugo #crooked kingdom #grishaverse #nikolai duology #grishaverse shitpost #kaz brekker #inej ghafa #zoya nazyalensky #nikolai lantsov #kanej #zoyalai

“it hurts me, just how much i ache for you." With zoya and a female reader pls! Where zoya doesn’t want to confess and the reader was up to something like making her jealous then love making if its alright. Thank you have a nice day 😊😊

ache for you

Zoya x f!Reader

NSFW minors dni

A/N: oh gosh I'm so sorry this took me so long but I LOVED writing this and definitely will be writing more Zoya. thank you so much for sending this :)

Summary: “Then, Saints help you Zoya Nazyalensky. Do something about it. Don’t be a coward.”

“You don’t understand.” Zoya said, anger and frustration filling her stupidly perfect face.

Word Count: ~1k

Warnings: slight exhibitionism, jealousy, smut

“Then explain it to me.”

“It hurts me. Just how much I ache for you.” You could tell the words were painful, difficult for her to say, but at this point you didn’t care. You were sick of it, sick of waiting around for Zoya to do something.

“Then, Saints help you Zoya Nazyalensky. Do something about it. Don’t be a coward.” You know all the right words to piss her off, all of the right buttons to push. A challenge, and Zoya’s never backed down from one.

She took one slow step forward, her eyes meeting yours, the entire time. You could practically see her thinking, see her debating if she would do something or not.

“I knew it. I’m going to find Lena.” You rolled your eyes, pushing yourself off the wall. Lena, your ex-lover. Someone Zoya had it out for the second you two started dating, but coincidentally stopped as soon as you’d broken up with her. Zoya froze as you took a few steps towards the door. “She says hello, by the way.”

-

Lena, in fact, did not say hello. And Zoya knows that perfectly well. Just like she knows Y/n is going to make good on her word to find Lena. How long had they been broken up? She knows they haven’t seen each other since, but also knows that bitch would jump at the chance to be with her. To touch her girl. Her girl? When did that happen? Zoya made her mind up, and slid in front of Y/n before she could reach the door. “You don’t need her.”

“You’re correct. I don’t need anybody.” She caught the way her bottom lip rolled in between her teeth. Nervous. Cute.

“But you want me.” She purred, a hand reaching out to push back a stray hair. “You ache for me, just as much as I ache for you.” She took a careful step, invading her space, and let one hand drift down the column of her neck, her thumb brushing the velvety skin. “Don’t you?”

-

“Don’t you?”

Saints help you. You took another step forward, so close that if you took a large breath, you’d touch. “Show me..” You waited as her hand paused, thumb pressing gently on your pulse. You know your heart is beating rapidly, you can feel it nearly bursting out of your chest, and she knows too. Her move, you told yourself, wait for her to make the move.

Her hand slid to the back of your neck, burying itself in your hair, gripping slightly. And Zoya took that final step, yanking you forward and tilting your head to meet her lips. It was angry but somehow soft. Her lips felt just like you’d dreamt they would. Not that you’d ever tell her that.

Soft, but she moved with such certainty and aggression that you couldn’t help following her lead, your hands lazily drifting over her shoulders, before making slow strokes down her arms. She, on the other hand, gripped your hip tightly with one hand, pressing you as close as she physically could, all while backing you into the wall.

Your slightly exposed back hit the cold wall, drawing a small gasp out of you. “I’ll have you making more sounds like that before the nights over.”

“Zoya.” You looked to see if anyone was nearby.

“Let them see.” Her hand cupped your cheek, drawing your attention back to her. This time she leaned in softly, pressing a kiss to the corner of your mouth. But, you weren’t having that, and pulled her in, fingers digging into her hair, tugging the ribbon, letting it all come loose. You tucked the ribbon in your pocket like a prize, all while keeping your lips on hers.

-

Y/n bit lightly on Zoya’s bottom lip, and she couldn’t control the small moan that left her. That sound spurred y/n on, because she grew bolder, flipping Zoya so her back pressed against the wall, her hips pinning her in place.

“So pretty,” the other girl cooed, fingers tracing her cheekbones and jawline. Y/N pressed a soft kiss to the bottom of her neck, and Zoya tilted her head to give more access. Her lips trailed up, sucking lightly on the skin - not enough to feel a bruise. This time Zoya bit on her own lip, keeping any sounds firmly in.

She’d had enough and grabbed her hand, tugging her down the hall towards her rooms. She didn’t really want to let them see. As soon as the door closes, she’s unbuttoning y/n’s Kefta, keeping her eyes directly on her as she takes her time.

Y/n huffs, rolling her eyes, before swatting Zoya’s hands away and taking it off herself, tossing it somewhere across the room.

-

You reach the first button on Zoya’s Kefta and wait, giving her a chance to back away, or change her mind. Zoya copies you, rolling her eyes dramatically before taking it off and throwing it across the room. She walks you backwards until your knees hit the bed, and you fall backwards, pulling her on top of you.

All of your clothes are shed quickly after, and your thumbs ghost over her nipples, before your hands trail down her sides, stopping to grip her hips. Zoya’s eyes narrow and she grips the back of your head, crashing your lips together. The kiss leaves you dizzy and breathless, her lips trailing down your neck, before gently sucking on your nipple.

-

Zoya loves how she keens into her, throwing her head back into moan just from the smallest touch. “So sensitive,” she teases. Y/n’s hands move, quick, pinching Zoya’s nipple between her thumb and forefinger, drawing out a small whimper.

“Look at you,” Y/n says, “so sensitive.”

-

You spent the rest of the night drawing out some rarely seen manners from Zoya, just as she kept you begging for more.

“Are you going to go find Lena now?” She asked, as you curled up against her. You pretended to think about it, rubbing your finger against your bottom lip. “The correct answer is no.” Zoya ground her teeth, and you laughed, leaning up to press a kiss against her lips. She tapped her finger against your lips, “you wretch.”

for the ship ask: zoyalina 👀

this is the ultimate enemies/rivals to lovers ship. zoya is so cruel to alina at first and the ways they first interact with each other in both the books and the show is so good for setting up a rivalry. god like the angst of alina being so excited to be accepted amongst the grisha and then zoya immediately swooping in to just ruin her mood is so perfect. I think this is interestingly juxtaposed by marie and nadia's changes in character too. how show!zoyalina has more individual tension because zoya is kind of the only threat vs how book!zoyalina is sort of an abject misery over this whole group of people with zoya at the center. I really like both a lot.

I love how zoya and alina's relationship develops into such a close friendship. how there's that middle period where alina doesn't know if she can trust zoya but zoya claims to be on her side and how that slowly transitions to a very real bond of sisterhood and love, especially when it comes to genya and how they all eventually fit together.

I love how protective they are of each other, but especially how protective zoya is of alina! like I love the ways zoya thinks about alina in the duology and I love the ways she is always trying to protect her, and when that fails she is always just there to back alina in whatever play she needs. I think it's amazing.

three things I like about this ship (x)

nina only realized all people's hearts sound different because of parem

she heard everyone's heartbeats on the whole ship too

with baghra being an amplifier, genya was able to do the same and more so with incredibly more people and with those people being underground.

this is an excellent set-up for parem but also, baghra as an amplifier isn't supposed to be that powerful. parem is supposed to be 100x more powerful. maybe this was the bare minimum of parem. but also maybe this was a testament to how powerful genya safin actually is. and with the implication that she recognizes david's heartbeat even before she was amplified enough to find it when that was not an ability nina had before parem? call it talent or skill but no doubt is genya safin powerful

#WHICH IS WHY SHE IS PART OF THE TRIUMVIRATE LIKE ZOYA IS #THEY ARE BOTH SKILLED IN THEIR AREAS WITHOUT ANY UNNATURAL FORCES AFFECTING THEIR POWERS #yes i am shading show!alina #also big thank you for the person who made the gif you're a big lifesaver !!!#grishaverse #shadow and bone #genya safin #sab #sab spoilers #shadow and bone spoilers #nina zenik #six of crows #soc

oooh FlintGrandadFic 👀 👀 (I'm also tempted by old married zoyalina rights)

ayyy lol that title is prolly kinda misleading, but it's a twoshot style fic i started working on in which Flint narrates both his being taken to Savannah and his escaping with Thomas via framing device of him recounting stories his Grandfather told him about being in the merchant service/growing up near a fishing community.

It's really just my excuse to mess with framing devices lol. because i like them way too much.

“’Wasn’t long until there was someone at our door. And they were asking questions, too. And, well someone had to answer them, too. Else it’d be on all our heads. “’Couldn’t tell you who it was,’ and he turned away.” And grandfather’s eyes were on the horizon line. “’But someone talked, all careful not to implicate sons or brothers or kin, careful to steer towards the path of least relation. But someone talked. Must’ve offered names, too. Pointed out a dinghy, maybe, or a familiar stitch on some man’s coat. “’And they were carted off. Maybe there was a trial or something, I don’t know. Only know they never did come back. “’Couldn’t tell you whose fault it was.’” But that wasn’t the point, Flint explained to Thomas, pulling him in closer, into the vortex of all his convictions. Learned at his knee as easily as at grandfathers. The point was you either were something or you weren’t.

Old Married Zoyalina came to me in a vision (aka while daydreaming on the bus). its an post-row au wherein Zoya and Alina outlive everyone and are sad about it, so they decide to move in together and be crotchety old ladies about it instead.

Now there wasn’t much left but each other. There were her grandchildren’s clutch of grandchildren. And Alina’s haphazard army of adopted nieces and nephews she'd acquired over the years. There was even Morozova, who’d Alina insisted on freeing, who delighted in hanging about both their necks like a stone. But it wasn’t enough, and they’d both found the constant death and change and erosion inspired a tiredness they lacked the tolerance for. So they’d come here. Crouched in the mountains like a pair of vagrants. Learned all the things Zoya had spent so much time studiously refusing to know how to do.
