”Crows remember human faces. They remember the people who feed them, who are kind to them. And the people who wrong them too. They don’t forget. They tell each other who to look after and who to watch out for.”
« He heaved a flat of wild geraniums into the canal over the protests of the flower seller and grabbed the clothes Matthias had stashed there earlier that morning. He swept the red cloak around Inej’s shoulders in a rain of petals and blossoms as she continued to strap on her knives. She looked almost as startled as the flower seller. »

[Image ID: Image 1 is a close up of image 2. Image 2 shows Kaz, Jesper, Wylan, and Nina on a roof top at night after a nearly failed heist. It’s dark except for a few city lights, the glowing clock tower, and the light from the moon over the water. All of them are dressed up in party clothes except Kaz who is in his usual crisp black suite and holding his cane. Kaz is sitting slightly apart from the others staring out at the harbor. Jesper is smirking at Kaz and has his arm is around Wylan, his legs crossed. Wylan is combing his hands through Nina’s hair as she leans back into his lap, her head resting on her fist, healed shoes discard in favor of bare feet. Both Wylan and Nina are looking out over the harbor as well. Nina is holding onto a stolen bottle of whisky, but still manages to point down to the harbor where the ship The Wraith has just docked.

Shadow and Bone dropped!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am so stoked. I only had time for the first episode, but now I can’t stop thinking about it!!!
Love seeing my Crows. In honor of the day, here is a sketch I did a few days ago of Kaz and Inej. What can I say, I’m a sucker for some Crows.
[Image Description: Kaz Brekker, a pale, harsh looking boy is holding onto an injured Inej who is dressed all in dark colors with a knife in her abdomen. Kaz has an angry, yet extremely concerned look on her face. Inej is in pain, her hands clasping at the knife. End ID]
“His father would have sneered at these thugs and thieves, a disgraced soldier, a gambler who couldn’t keep out of the red. But they were his first friends, his only friends, and Wylan knew that even if he’d had his pick of a thousand companions, these would have been the people he chose.”
