Words Cannot Explain How Much I Have Missed This Idiot

i will not stand for any jamie parker slander. his i am the one reprise is absolutely phenomenal

free-thoughts on mr kaz brekker and mr anthony lockwood

i’ve seen a lot of people compare kaz brekker and anthony lockwood / say that they would be friends. i’d like to present a lil counter argument

i mean they’re definitely similarly-coded characters, that’s for sure- they carry similar trauma in similar ways, the lil emo boy aesthetic, “i don’t talk about feelings alfred. ive never had one, ive never seen one” type vibe.

but to me, the fundamental difference between them is that in response to all of his trauma, kaz hardened up and closed himself off. he became what he needed to be to survive- the bastard of the barrel. but on the other hand, lockwood stayed a crack open. despite all he did to try and close himself off, he stayed positive and kind- he managed to keep his spark. maybe this is just due to their environments- maybe if lockwood had been in ketterdam, he would’ve hardened completely too- but i still think it’s an important difference between them.

in the hypothetical that these two divas meet, i see lockwood annoying the hell out of kaz- kind of like jesper does, but i think they’re way too similar for kaz to tolerate it in the same way he does w jes. lockwood is too much like jordie, but also too much like kaz himself.

knowing lockwood went through similar experiences (in regards to loss and having to make it alone, while still being surrounded by ghosts) but came out kindhearted would probably drive kaz a little crazy. and alternatively knowing that he easily could have turned out as vengeful, cold, and angry as kaz- maybe that he even had been at some point- would lowkey scare the shit out of lockwood.

i’m not saying they’d hate each other, but i doubt they’d really be friends either. maybe if they sat down, got really drunk, and had a whole trauma-bond/intensive therapy session… but i mean we all know how likely those two are to talk about their feelings lmao

but on the other hand, lockwood and jesper? now that’s two idiot bffs. they’d hit it off immediately- imagine the banter. plus both of them constantly gambling with their lives to avoid their issues, then playing it off like it’s nothing. mr “you’re our greatest asset” and mr “maybe i liked your stupid face”. they would be Unstoppable. chaos would reign. wylan and lucy would form a support group (inej would join).

this got longer than i meant oops. idk they rotate in my brain constantly and i have Been Thinking. i miss my crows and my favorite agency

jesper tosses and turns in bed all night. he kicks off the blankets to then hog them all to himself. he fidgets with everything and he gets extremely upset if wylan doesnt wanna cuddle. he annoys him to death.

WHY DID NETFLIX TAKE THEM FROM ME :(

I NEED THE SIX OF CROWS SPIN OFF LIKE YESTERDAY 😩🥹

They didn't let us have a Six of Crows spin off because they knew Jack Wolfe would be too powerful

"You say that you're hurting / I know it ain't so"

i've been thinking about the swap to handheld camera near the end of I am the one

i love it so much as a cinematic choice. it kinda puts us into a forced 1st person perspective, like as an audience, briefly we are in the kitchen with them, especially with caissie clocking the camera. it just really drives home how out of control she feels in this moment within her lashing out against gabe and dan

and seeing them scurry away from her from this perspective is just so emotive and i think really captures the feeling of lashing out through fear as much as anger when struggling with mental health and pushing away those who are trying trying to help

its crazy to me that they didn't use this type of shot anywhere else in the show (ifrc?) but i guess its exclusivity to this moment solidifies both the power and vulnerability to diana at this moment.

anyways im very next to normal about this show xo

life is so much better when you have a work of fiction to obsess over

maybe if i imagine the character all my problems will be solved

i always feel so happy reading about wylan setting off some badass bomb or showcasing his knowledge like yes my guy show them what you got

Good morning to everyone, except Netflix who keeps cancelling perfectly good shows for no fathomable reason. Fuck you in particular actually.
