“my characters write themselves” is such a lie. my characters bully me into giving them better dialogue and hijack the plot every chance they get. i am not in control here.

By doug sneyd, who also made this:
And this:
It's not often that a cis male depicts lesbians without overshadowing them with the typical Male Gaze (tm). Good for him!
2. How did you find the Whump community?
Good question. I'm honestly not sure, but I'm guessing it must have been on Tumblr. Probably found an according tag on some post I liked or got directed here from a prompt challenge or fic I enjoyed.
'do you think you're superior for not using AI in your work' thank you for asking! yes i do
Kaz Brekker's Dictionary
Impossible : A suggestion. Try harder. Trust : Something other people do. Failure : Unacceptable, do it again. Kruge : The one language everyone speaks. If it doesn’t solve the problem, you didn’t use enough of it. Love : A weakness I don’t have. (Liar, liar, gloves on fire.) Jesper : A human hurricane. Effective when pointed in the right direction. Wylan : Explosives Picasso. Looks like he wouldn’t hurt a fly but is currently sketching blueprints to blow up the whole hive. Matthias : A Saint with fists. Useless against jokes. Nina : Human weapon. Eats waffles like they wronged her and buries men who actually did. Inej : A tether to my sanity, I want to bottle her laugh and hold her hand-- Wraith.
Kaz doesn’t use emojis, but if he did, it’d be 🖤 or 🖕.
to be loved is to be seen
and it’s kaz choosing a ship for inej that he thinks suits her
it’s mal knowing alina loves the blue irises, not the white ones
it’s jesper memorizing wylan’s face and telling genya how to tailor him back
it’s david keeping a list of all the ways genya likes to be complimented
it’s nikolai designing a structure to protect zoya’s garden and promising to always make it summer for her
inej and kaz having issues with touch due to trauma. kaz and wylan drowning and being reborn in the ketterdam harbor. wylan and jesper feeling like they have to hide a part of themselves due to their fathers. jesper and nina being grisha with addictions. nina and matthias being raised as a weapon rather than a human. matthias and inej being deeply religious. inej and wylan making themselves smaller because of the abuse they suffered. wylan and matthias being forced into a life of crime. matthias and kaz losing their parents and siblings. kaz and jesper being thrown into the barrel because of reckless behavior involving money. jesper and matthias being taught from childhood to be afraid of grisha power. all of these characters being so different yet so similar and forever interconnected with each other because they know that no one else will understand
me five shots deep: no, no, you don't understand. the point is all the main couples mirror each other. nina and matthias are child soldiers loyal to their country above almost everything else. jesper and wylan have low self esteems, fathers deeply important to the narrative, and are fundamentally mommas' boys. and kaz and inej-
the person trying to fuck me at the bar, nodding: -are the two deadliest people in the barrel and they can't even touch each other without keeling over.
me: exactly! and one more thing-
EVERYONE STOP AND READ THIS UNPUBLISHED HELNIK SCENE
(this is from Leigh’s insta btw)
nina’s first thought about matthias being “he looks like a painting” before remembering he might kill her
🤝🏼
wylan’s first thought about jesper being “this boy had the most perfectly shaped lips he’d ever seen” before realizing he might have been sent to kill him
The illustrations from the Six of Crows and Crooked Kingdom Owlcrate special editions.
"who fell first who fell harder" i actually need them both to be down horrendously bad for each other. hope that helps
Matthias Helvar did not say
You aren’t a flower, you’re every blossom in the wood blooming at once. You are a tidal wave. You’re a stampede. You are overwhelming.
For everyone to hate on him.
even if you don’t like Katthias I think the image of Nina and Kaz teaming up to fluster the hell out of Matthias is a very entertaining one. Let that repressed bisexual have to deal with both of them!!!
hey yall i saw a post on here where someone made their friend guess the soc character lore so i decided to do it w my friend. enjoy this trainwreck...
the wylan one is SENDING ME 😭
Shout out to unconscious whumpees!
Whumper dragging them away by the collar/back of the shirt or by under whumpee's armpits
Caretaker finding them after a while and not knowing whether they're alive or not until they check their pulse
Caretaker, after finding Whumpee, has to drag them to safety (fireman's carry, bridal style– go crazy!)
The blinking and the –little or long– struggle before whumpee finally collapses
Perhaps Whumpee is too heavy and/or their wound is too deep/large that it takes more than one caretaker to carry them to safety
Whumpee's limbs and head lolling like they're a lifeless puppet, worsening Caretaker's concerns
Feel free to add more, I love the trope!
I can't believe it's this late on Thanksgiving and I haven't seen Peter Parker had to beat an old lady with a stick to get these cranberries.
Gotta do everything myself around here.
