you know the writer is REALLY talented when they can make readers obsess over an uncommon ship with a single fic.

I keep seeing everyone complimenting Freddy Carter on his brilliant portrayal of Kaz Brekker and his subtle touch aversions cues; which is all well deserved, don’t get me wrong, the guy is amazing. But what about Kit Young’s just as brilliant portrayals of Jesper’s crush on Kaz? I don’t have gifs to compare, but in the show Jesper nearly always has his eyes on Kaz, looking up to him for direction or listening for his next command. And it’s not the look of a diligent soldier or lackey, it’s the look of a boy who is in love with his best friend. It’s completely different from how he looks at the stableboy, Inej, or even Alina, and at the exact same time, Kaz never spares him the same glance showcasing that one sided attraction even more so. Idk man but before I read the book and had only seen the show, I saw the way Jesper looked at Kaz and I swore there was something else in those looks, and now that I’ve read the book it’s like !!!! Kit Young understood the assignment and we all know it
