i want to talk more about the fact that kaz learned most of his tricks from street magicians and traveling performers. i want to discuss kaz brekker and his ceaseless little magic tricks. he's literally a party magician but he's so fucking serious about it. he bests the darkling with a magic trick. he tries to convince inej that alina isn't that great or impressive by making a fucking quarter appear. saints? not real. not cool. you know what is cool? this quarter. why are you walking away
at the PEAK of his revenge scheme, when he's finally getting what he wants, when pekka is on his knees, think about what fucking kaz does. another silly little magic trick. he's standing there, covered in blood and sweat, hat gone. hat in the wind. hat RIP in pieces. hatless. and he's like like ah, yes. time for my incredibly good appearing pen trick. you may remember this from my flashback two episodes ago
