cr: Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo
*cracks knuckles* Okay, let’s see what all this fighting on twt is about
— BEFORE
I'm guessing this boy and girl are Alina and Mal??
And I was correct...
"They did not see the girl reach out to clasp the boy's hand or the look that passed between them. The Duke knew that look...He knew the look of a man defending his home with nothing but a rock in his hand"
Okay, that was lowkey kinda cute
Okay, that was lowkey kinda cute
— CHAPTER ONE
Wait!? It’s in the first person?!
“You’re interfering with my plan”
“Oh really?”
“Yes. Faint, get trampled, grievous injuries all around”
Okay I’m so far liking Alina...
“Oh really?”
“Yes. Faint, get trampled, grievous injuries all around”
Okay I’m so far liking Alina...
“I see. I can shove you under a cart if that would help”
“I’ll think about it”
Can they just stay friends?
“I’ll think about it”
Can they just stay friends?
“The Darkling. There was no mistaking his black coach or the uniform of his personal guard”
“Really? Did you acually see him”
“Acually, I was too busy trying not to die”
“There are worse ways to go”
Okay Alexei....
“Acually, I was too busy trying not to die”
“There are worse ways to go”
Okay Alexei....
“It was a Darkling who made the Shadow Fold to begin with”
A Darkling?! So it’s not just a person?!
A Darkling?! So it’s not just a person?!
“It’s always just you and me, Alina”
I think I like them better as friends...
I think I like them better as friends...
— CHAPTER TWO
Noooo Alexei!!
“I’ll meet you in the meadow”
Alina’s sun summoning powers..
— CHAPTER THREE
Wait, the Darkling is older than Alina and you all still ship them?!
“And I realized that u have been holding my breath”
YA books have surpassed the need for this quote
YA books have surpassed the need for this quote
That girl in blue that flirted with Mal is so annoying
The Darkling is lowkey creepy...
The Darkling’s powers are cool
there like the evil version of Alina’s
there like the evil version of Alina’s
— CHAPTER FOUR
“This is ridiculous” I murmured
“Maybe”
“I frowned. He was agreeing with me but I still felt insulted”
Prove them wrong Alina!
“Maybe”
“I frowned. He was agreeing with me but I still felt insulted”
Prove them wrong Alina!
Wait, if Alina is a sun summoner, what color of kefta would she have??
The Darkling just cut that Fjerdan in half..
“So you do make mistakes”
“Of course I make mistakes, just not often”
At least he admits it
“Of course I make mistakes, just not often”
At least he admits it
Okay besides his shadow powers or whatever you call them, the “calming” power that Darkling has is badass as well
— CHAPTER FIVE
“What are you smiling at?”
“Myself”
“Are you that funny?”
“I’m hilarious”
“Myself”
“Are you that funny?”
“I’m hilarious”
He’s 123 years old?! Wow...
“But every Darkling since then has tried to undo the damage he did to our country and I’m no different”
I want to believe him, but I’m not sure
I want to believe him, but I’m not sure
“So what do you think of it”
“It’s very...grand?”
“I think it’s the ugliest building I have ever seen”
LMAO
“It’s very...grand?”
“I think it’s the ugliest building I have ever seen”
LMAO
“Make sure to lock the door. As a precaution”
AGAINST WHAT?!
AGAINST WHAT?!
— CHAPTER SIX
These chapters are short, as they should be
“My name is Genya”
AHHH YESSS
AHHH YESSS
Ugh Genya is a queen, seriously she’s so powerful when it comes to tailoring
Alina saying she isn’t pretty... girl stfu you are beautiful and powerful!
“She’s waking with me” said a low voice and the room went silent.
Okay but like i can imagine this scene in my head and it’s so powerful wtf
Okay but like i can imagine this scene in my head and it’s so powerful wtf
— CHAPTER SEVEN
Okay but like, do Alina’s powers only work when there is darkness??
Also the Queen being jealous of Genya because she’s more beautiful than she is, is hilarious
Alina was allowed to wear a black kefta and she REFUSED?! I’m sorry but WHAT?!
JUST IMAGINE Alina in Darkling colors?! THE POWER
Aw Genya ate with Alina
— CHAPTER EIGHT
Ahhhh Genya has a crush on David...
Those Heartrender’s room are so creepy... like What are they doing in there?!
OKAY but why didn’t those Grisha discover Alina’s powers when they first tested her?!
Baghra is creeping me out....
— CHAPTER NINE
“And a gruesome scar across his neck where someone has tried to cut his throat. I spent the next two hours curing that person for not doing a more thorough job”
I have said once and I will say it again, the way The Darkling is so clam, is eerie
Also why did he ask Alina about Mal?!
Alina not being good at exercise is such a mood
— CHAPTER TEN
Wait so like is Alina slowing dying because she hasn’t used her powers?!
I feel like this thread if just filled with my questions at this point
That Apparat is lowkey scary....
He just gave her a book about the Saints... foreshadowing?!?
