This scene, honestly. I just love it. especially the part where Kaz says "that's the laugh".š§”šš§”.
Also... That little "is my tie straight" vulnerability from Kaz is one of the most precious things I have read.
And also that "He had his arm around her".
The fact that they both had such deep wounds and their PTSD. And also maybe because they never really had any kissing scenes, my brain has just made all of of their encounters super intimate. And. I.cant.stop.crying.
I just love this scene so much.

Kaz is such a fucking SOFTIE deep down, it cracks me up every time. āMy mother is the harbor, my father is greedā and then turns around to make sure the flowers they use in their escape are Inejās favorites. Gets Jesperās guns back for him even though he doesnāt have to. Allows and in fact encourages Nina to embrace her new powers. Goes out of his way to mentor Wylan. Asks Matthias to keep Mrs. Van Eck calm and comfortable even though it wouldāve been easier to torture her. Essentially said he *missed* Jesper. Like??? What a soft little murderous gangster.
*taps microphone*

everyone say thank you leigh bardugo for keeping kaz and nikolaiās friendship alive
I admit, while reading , I kept forgetting that they are 17 year old teenagers. And it was because of scenes like this one, where that realisation came back to me in a huge wave.
This confusion in Inej's heart and mind. Her thoughts, her doubtfulness , her questioning herself. I have also doubted myself when it has come to matters of heart. And I think everyone does.
But even beneath her confusion, I can see a sign of maturity there. I know that they were all forced to grow up and mentally mature earlier due to their past. And by her maturity, I mean, how she understands, that just like her, Kaz has also gone through unexplainable stuff. The need for his armour. The need for her own armour. And it's not like she turns a blind eye to the things Kaz was trying to do for her. The net. She noticed it. Even though she had accepted and even tried to make peace with the fact that maybe she will never have him like she wanted to. She didn't shut him out.
I think all these little things, they talked to me more about her character. They made me live her and absorb her character more.
āIs Inej Ghafa your real name?ā
A strange sound escaped Inejās throat, part sob, part laugh, a weak, embarrassing sound, but it had been months since sheād heard her own name, her family name. āYes,ā she managed.
āIs that what you prefer to be called?ā
āOf course,ā she said, then added, āIs Kaz Brekker your real name?ā
āReal enough.ā
ALSO, thereās a difference between stanning Joost - who was an innocent boy who literally didnāt mean to harm anyone and was just caught in the crossfire of an experiment gone wrong - and stanning an entitledĀ white woman who wanted to harm a girl of colour because she thought she would find glory in her death.Ā
