Tamar slipped a dagger from her wrist and twirled it, balancing its point on one fingertip. “I can be quiet,” she said, “and merciful. I may let the puppets live.”

Nadia reached out and nudged Mal’s hand. “At least consider the plan. And if it all goes wrong-“
"Alina gets a new bracelet,” finished Zoya.
I scowled. “How about I slice you open and see how your bones fit?”
Zoya fluffed her hair. “I bet they’re just as gorgeous as the rest of me.”

“You still may die in the Dregs.“
Inej’s dark eyes had glinted. “I may. But I’ll die on my feet with a knife in my hand.”

My advisor: how’s your thesis going
Me: in this chapter i would like to discuss whether or not knowledge of the Dutch language influences the experience of reading Leigh Bardugo’s Six Of Crows duology (2015/16), and how much of the words are supposed to be considered little Dutch jokes woven into the text. As an obvious example we can take the name of the city: “Ketterdam” as a bastardized version of Amsterdam carries the Dutch word for heretic/non-believer, an excellent tongue-in-cheek for a city where the religion is inherently linked to the economy. Less obvious are some of the names, and we can wonder whether Ghezen, the Kerch god of industry and commerce, is a reference to the “Geuzen” [ˈɣøːzə(n)] (eng: the Beggars), the rebels who established an independent Dutch republic in the 16th century, whom depending on motivation could be considered either pirates or privateers.
My advisor: weren’t you writing about Japanese lesbians in the ‘70s
Me: no mourners no funerals

Here’s another drawing I submitted for Leigh’s contest. :))
This is just too much fun. It’s like every time I draw something grishaverse related I learn something new about drawing.
