i want everyone to know that at this very moment, inej has just left her ship in the ketterdam harbour and is on her way to the slat to climb through kaz’s window for old times sake.  the wind is in her hair and slavers know and fear her by name.  kaz is building his empire, building and burning what he pleases, and he leaves the window open for inej.  nina and matthias are somewhere quiet, it’s just them and they have all the time in the world.  they’re kissing, sometimes, and sometimes just sitting together, breathing, living.  they have time to do this now.  nobody will ever take that away again.  jesper and wylan are in the van eck mansion, and instead of fear and silence it’s now filled with light, the smell of burning food they tried their best to cook, the smell of gun powder, marya’s paintings lining the walls.  they make it a home.  kuwei is in ravka.  they’re making a lot of progress on a parem antidote, for the first time in his life he’s safe and happy and next week he’s going to go on a date with a cute boy who smiles at him like the actual sun.  they are all living and building something new, and it’s not always perfect or happy but day by day it’s coming together and they’re going to be just fine
