fanon Wylan van Eck, blushing constantly while stuttering and tripping over his feet as he avoids eye contact, not having spoken to another human being in 82 years, softest of soft boys: H-hi Jesper
canon Wylan van Eck, blushing constantly while mixing together 3 dangerous acids and building a bomb so he can blow up a gate, having joined a gang as a way to make some $$$ so he can permanently get away from his terrible father: hey Jesper are you bi or what
“Hello, my name is Kuwei. This is my look-alike, Wylan. This is his boyfriend Jesper, and Jesper’s boyfriend Kaz. Next to him is his girlfriend Inej, and then Inej’s girlfriend Nina. Next to Nina stands her boyfriend Matthias. Any questions?”
So pleased to finally be finished!! This is the full video–just the first verse + chorus–but the full song works really well for Six of Crows and you should listen to it! And also read the Six of Crows duology by Leigh Bardugo because those are them Good Books. uOu/
Some notes: Wylan’s burning a letter and yep, that’s his dad. Yep, that’s Jarl Brum’s gloved hand that appears before the wolf. Inej’s knives should’ve been dark for maximum stealth, I just liked the shine too much. In retrospect, I wish I’d given Kaz a proper limp.

This is truly one of the most magical, spectacular, incredible things I’ve ever seen. @toastyhat, I’ve loved following your updates and getting to see just a tiny bit of the tremendous amount of work that went into this. You captured these characters and the spirit of the book so perfectly. I am seriously blown away. I’m on writing retreat and I just showed it to Kelly and we outright screamed.
Now I’m going to go watch this a thousand more times.
remember when kaz brekker told inej ghafa he refused to be the one to mark her body after everything she had been through?? because i sure do. the tattoo was mandatory for everyone in the dregs except her bc self-proclaimed monster kaz brekker had the decency to respect her past trauma & he didnt want her to feel like anyone owned her. and the first thing he did after purchasing her indenture was get her proper clothes?? and a knife??? lbr when will your fave ever
