Hey! I just saw your latest Six of Crows/ post R&R fic and I'm sobbing a little (a lot). Do you happen to remember where that banner quote is in the book? Or what the specific quote was? I remember seeing and feeling like someone shot me.

The banner comes up around page 350 in the kindle edition of Six of Crows!

“Saints,” he said, feeling a little sick. “Grisha colors.” 

Wylan squinted. “The banner?” 

“Red for Corporalki. Blue for Etherealki. Purple for Materialki. Those are pieces of the kefta that Grisha wear in battle. They’re trophies.” 

“There are so many.” 

Hundreds. Thousands. I would have worn purple, Jesper thought, if I’d joined the Second Army.

sry not sry for your tears! i also felt like someone shot me, sob. what an awful & beautiful detail

Hey, love! I see you've finished SoC and your fellow Grisha fan (me) has fallen deeply for Nina X Matthias (and by deep I mean Alarkling depths). Care to lessen my suffering with some fanfic? Maybe a scene from their days spent together in a hut? :)

I’m not taking prompts right now, sorry! but i do have a couple of helnik things done already, and there are another couple of prompts in my inbox that i will probably fill over the next week.

Welcome to crow hell :)

Who is your favorite musical artist? EXO, as of right now. I have a lot of favorites though, which include: Fall Out Boy, Halsey, and Taylor Swift.

What was your favorite childhood show? I had a few, but I really miss Zoobumafo (I’m not sure if I spelled that correctly).

Favorite celebrity? Tons I have tons of fav celebrities, but right now I am currently obsessed with stalking the EXO members on social media, so Chanyeol and Baekhyun?

OOOHH right I forgot to do that part!! okay well I'm obviously Viktoria ;) 1. rowaelin or feylin 2. Lucien (from acotar) 3. I feel like Petrah Blueblood and I would get along amazingly. We'd probably make flower crowns from ivy and hike mountains before dawn just to feel the wind. Also, she's described as the saint-like witch and I feel like her brutality but serenity encompasses a lot of my personality!

Why are you asking for one, Viktoria, you extremely talented person? Anyway I hope you don’t mind having a crush on Petrah. We all do so whatever, you know.

Every time she tried to construct aflower crown, it never worked. Viktoria always managed to scratch herself onrose thorns or contract an itch from poison ivy. But those injuries were simplyexcuses—she was a witch, after all—for not being able to weave properly.

Meanwhile, Petrah Blueblood had notrouble at all. The girl was flawless in whatever she did whether it weavingflower crowns or seducing a man or ripping out his heart. The heir was currentlymaking a crown out of ivy and impossibly tiny lilies of the valley. Her hands,of course, were unmarred.

The wind started again—a commonalityhigh up in the Fangs—blowing away Viktoria’s frustrations. She smiled as the vinesand petals flew away from her. Naturally, Petrah was wearing her effortless workon top of her brass coils. The breeze gently nudged her hair, but not enough tomake it fly in her face like it was doing to Viktoria’s.

The heir closed her eyes in content,though she did not smile. A smile from Petrah was rare and deserved to betreated like a blessing from a goddess.

“This is better than an irondiadem, yes?” Petrah said, her eyes still closed.

Iron diadem… It took Viktoria a fewmoments to remember that the Blueblood Matron wore a crown of spiked ironstars. “Natural, pretty, poisonous…” Viktoria murmured carefully. “I believeso, yes. It’ll make other witches underestimate you, certainly.”

Petrah’s blue eyes revealedthemselves. “Excellent,” the girl said, drumming her fingers on the tall grass,neglected and forgotten by the nomadic herders who had heavily populated theFangs before… well before everything had gone to shit in Erilea.

“Would you look at that,” Petrahsaid, rising. Viktoria, still seated, looked over to the spot Petrah was gazingat to find a kid. Not a human child, unfortunately. But a baby goat, wobbling.All alone.

Viktoria wondered what Petrah—a girlof mystery and beauty and death—would do. She walked towards the animal.

Want to be written into some SJM fanfiction? no more after i finish the ones already in my inbox

[ignitesthestxrs]

I'm craving alarkling in the worst way. I just finished Deathless by Catherynne Valente and it's literally all about if alarkling became canon (set in 20th century Russia). Have any fic recs to soothe my aching soul??

I have read Deathless! My understanding is that both Grisha and Deathless are informed by the same folklore/myth, although Deathless is more of a direct translation. 

For alarkling, check out gizkasparadise and starforged! In particular, Start a War is probably going to be your jam, but both of them have a bunch (and i mean a bunch) of one-shots and bits and pieces that will probably be up your alley c:

oh and i write some stuff too LMAO you can check out my alarkling tag

Hey Leigh! I'm with you on the whole review thing, tbh I'm glad my ship is supposedly endgame but I'm hoping the review was biased when it comes to Chaol & Dorian. I think the whole Dorian x Manon thing is only possible while D is wearing the collar. Maybe that's what the reviewer implied? They're both evil (now, while he's possessed) and under the control of the King, but also both trying to figure themselves out. I don't want to bash SJM for one persons review of the book.

i don’t think that dorian/manon thing is because of the collar because Dorian’s mind is basically turned off. it’s all the valg now and he just goes around doing whatever the king wants. it wouldn’t make sense for the king to put the collar on and then let dorian have free will as far as romance goes. so any type of romance with dorian/manon is going to happen when the collar is off. maybe manon is at the castle and she takes pity on dorian and there’s hints that they’ll be a thing but i don’t think it’ll become a full blown romance until he’s got the collar off.

FanFiction Battle

So I just wanted to give all of my followers a heads up before it begins: I am taking part in a fanfiction battle of sorts with the following people - fallenaelin, real-bad-wolf, wishingonthenorthstar, aedionwhitethorn, arobynnwhitethorn and prince-rowan-whitethorn.

We all decided it would be really fun and interesting to write a scene/a few scenes about Rowan’s cousins (which he mentions briefly on page 337-338 in Heir of Fire). None of us are really sure exactly what we’re writing in terms of when it’s going to take place or where, but we’re all very excited to be doing this and to be able to receive feedback from all of you.

On August 15th we will all be releasing our fics (and then making a masterpost so that you have the links to everyone’s fics that are participating). I’m making this post now to let you all know what we’re doing, and that when we publish our fics and the masterpost, there will also be a site (either a poll or typeform) that you can all fill out to tell us whose fic you liked the best. You will be able to vote and leave comments for your favorite, and at the end of the voting period (I think we’re giving it a week or something like that) then we will announce the winners of the battle :)

Now, this is just for fun, and in no way does the results of the battle mean anything other than that people liked the winner’s story. This isn’t a means of trying to compete to see who the best writer is, not at all. It’s just something fun that we all wanted to do, and it’s kind of like a treat for all of the fans out there that are waiting for Queen of Shadows to come out (we’re all super excited and impatient for the release as well). Also, to make sure you support all of the writers, go follow them (a lot of them regularly post fanfic anyway, and they’re all really good writers!)

So I really hope you’ll all keep your eyes peeled for the release of our individual fics, and I really hope that you like them, because we are all working hard on them! Thank you <3
