You know, when I read Crooked Kingdom for the very first time, back when it was released, I was a happy-go-lucky girl enjoying the shit out of my first years of uni. And I thought Inej and Kaz are never gonna overcome their respective traumas to do more than hold hands, because I didn't know SHIT about mental illnesses or true hardships or how much a person can take. I also knew nothing about the insane recovery we, as humans, can make, if we feel it's worth it and if we have enough fire in us left.
Now that I am a slightly-more-disillusioned- uni-graduate and a Proper Grown Up who went through literal hell these past few years and who is slowly coming to terms that I will live with my issues and mental dysfunctions for the rest of my life... I am more than 100% sure they are gonna grow together and heal together and end up the happiest and healthiest couple in the entirety of grishaverse. No doubts about it. They give me hope like no other fictional characters. They are damn teenagers. It is just the beginning for them. And the rest of their story is gonna be bathed in light, not matter what you all wanna claim.
"Had she really thought the world didn’t change? She was a fool. The world was made of miracles, unexpected earthquakes, storms that came from nowhere and might reshape a continent. The boy beside her. The future before her. Anything was possible."
They are gonna be HAPPY, guys. Happy, together.
