a/n: I've been rewatching Shadow & Bone and ughh I love Nina, I love the crows, I love this show. Why did it have to get cut?!

・You weren't expecting to fall in love with someone like her.
・Someone so loud, and bold and fierce.
・Nina surprised you the first time you had met. You weren't expecting someone to make you smile on your worst day ever.
・She felt magnetic
・You wanted to spend more time with her but Kaz needed you elsewhere.
'I like her,' you said in your mind, and walked away with a smile. Which has never happened before.
・You decided you had to see her again. As many times as you could.
・The next day you had your wish.
・And the day after that.
・Little did you know, Nina liked you too.
・Together you were invincible. Heartrender & Inferni.
・And you became known for being the Grisha Pair.
・In time, never one seen without the other.
・It was hard for you to open up to anyone, but with Nina, it was easy. When you spoke, her eyes were always trained on yours. A hand covering your own.
・She never made you feel like a fool for opening up.
・Nina always listened too. No matter how many tangents you went on, or lost track of time.
・She never zones out like other people you know.
・Your relationship was built on friendship, trust, then romance and then love.
・It was you who made the first move. Your hand found Nina's cheek and you pulled her in.
・Her eyes softened as they looked into your own, "my heartrender," and then your lips were on hers.
・When you broke apart, she was smiling and whispered "yes I am yours."

ok so .. I’ve been reading the book shadow and bone by Leigh Bardugo these days (which is the first of the grishaverse if I’m not mistaking) and I read a quote of the character Baghra that surprisingly connects a lot with the shifting concept and I wanted to share with you. The book is written in Portuguese (yeah guys i’m from brazil 🇧🇷🇧🇷) so I’ll put the English translation down ↴
“It’s not something separated from you” Baghra snapped. “It’s not an animal that runs away from you or chooses if he will come or not when called. Do you ask your heart to beat or your lungs to breathe? Your power responds to you because that’s its purpose, because it cannot help but serve you.”
