FAVE MALE CHARACTERS - nikolai lantsov (the grisha trilogy)
I hope you weren’t looking to me to be the voice of reason. I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret.
The world is changing, we change with it, or there will be nothing to remember us but the dust.
“A privateer learns to press any advantage.“
“And a prince?”
“Princes get used to the word yes.”

Here is my very long, VERY late (I’m now done with the trilogy) review of A Darker Shade of Magic by V.E. Schwab!
the grisha trilogy meme: [4/5] details (outfit, hair, weapons, etc. etc.) - the Lantsov emerald
I took out Nikolai’s ring and set it on the table.
“Saints,” breathed Genya. “That’s the Lantsov emerald.”
It seemed to glow in the lamplight, the tiny diamonds twinkling around it.
“Did he just give it to you? To keep?” asked Nadia.
Genya seized my arm. “Did he propose?”
“Not exactly.”
“He might as well have,” Genya said. “That ring is an heirloom. The Queen wore it everywhere, even to sleep.”

secondary characterguest appearance | nikolai, zoya, and genyaThey’ve been told they would be meeting with only two members of the Triumvirate, but three people stood by the pool. Jesper knew the one-eyed girl in the red-and-blue kefta must be Genya Safin, and that meant the shockingly gorgeous girl with the thick fall of ebony hair was Zoya Nazyalensky. They were accompanied by a fox-faced man in his twenties wearing a teal frock coat, brown leather gloves, and an impressive set of Zemeni revolvers slung around his hips.
