can't stop thinking about the absolutely INSANE visuals. this would be such a fine fantasy thriller/horror netflix show i am shaking

ok yeah thats my one Thing abt this book. Russian names, when listed officially, go like this: Last Name (family name) + First Name (given name) + Paternal Name (derivative of your father's name). Kostya apparently only has his paternal name, and all the others only have their last names. makes sense for orphans to have only the last name (tho often they're given a derivative of "Ivan" for paternal). jsyk i guess

if i could magically make everyone love and appreciate this series as much as i do trust me i absolutely fucking would

"Morning is wiser than evening" is INDEED a very popular r̶u̶s̶s̶i̶a̶n̶ Kalyazi saying. my grandma's absolute favourite and also present in like every fairytale. good

Malachiasz: this 👌🏻 close to k wording Nadya while literally dripping blood from an eye on his
chin because he is a terrifying monster of epic proportions that does not remember himself anymore

Nadya: Malachiasz is the most ANNOYING bitch ive ever MET in my entire LIFE and i wish he werent so infuriatingly CONDESCENDING

king of moths.....king of blood.....king of horrors.....king of my heart👑
