I love that Mal was like "fuck destiny, I'm gonna be a pirate." I mean obviously (gestures at Geralt and Yennefer) I'm here for the "are we in love only because of magic?" trope and trying to navigate all that. tbh I thought Mal was rly boring s1 but he's grown on me a lot
IDK if I should read the books I know they're super different. I wanna know what happens but I really like the way the show has everyone together, and my understanding is they're not really together in the books 😔
The biggest change is obviously the Crows aren't in S&B and they never met anyone in it. The trilogy isn't that great, but Six of Crows and Crooked Kingdom are SO GOOD and the Nikolai books are also great.
at first I was like oh Nikolai and Alina are cute actually, I'm into this fake engagement oops real feelings -- but THEN his chemistry with Mal was SO CUTE AND GOOD i scream
I hope studios pay their workers what they fucking deserve asap (for obvious moral reasons but also) so everyone can fairly make season 3 I want more so badly....
so i will say about the books - there’s a lot more of some interactions and a lot less of others! you get more content for some stuff and not others and it also suffers from. the mid 2000s YA faults
i was watching season two mainly for the crowsOT3!! OT3!!!
don't threaten me with a good time
