Hello!!!! I am...still tired actually but yeah! Hi! I don't own these awesome characters, but I do own this particular plot line. I'm in the car on my phone so pardon and spelling mistakes😂 I promise when I'm on computer my grammar and spelling is better, but it's broken right now. :)

Kaz

I've never seen Inej like this. When I think of her, impulsive is not the first thing that crosses my mind. She sat down next to Evelyn, picking at the pancakes I made. The seven year old was completely oblivious to Inej's mood.
"InejInejInejInej guess what!" Inej smiled.
"What?"
"Kaz made me pancakes and he got me apple juice!" I grinned.
"Speaking of, you want something to drink 'nej?" She nodded.
"Just a water for now." Evelyn looked at her, and her blue eyes twinkled.
"Where did you go? I asked Kaz, he said somewhere where you used to live. But he sounded sad. Are you sad?" She blinked twice.
"I went to a place where pretty girls live. They go place to place, being sold. It's a very bad place, and I used to live there. Kaz got me out though." She smiled sadly, and I covered her hand with mine. Evelyn saw my gloves, and I could see the little gears in her head turning.
"Why do you where gloves?" Now it was my turn to blink.
"Why do you wear your hair in pigtails?" She stuck her tongue out, running her tiny hands through her blonde hair. Jesper walked in with Wylan, sitting in the stool next to Inej.
"What's up with the fire?" I shook my head at him.
"T he Menagerie is burning. Every one but Tante got out safely. I just wish we were the geniuses who at it aflame." He nodded. Inej stood up, sipping the last of her water.
"Hey Jes, could you and Wylan watch Evelyn? I wanna talk to Kaz really quick." Wylan raises his eyebrows, but Jesper agreed. Slowly, I followed Inej up to her room, and she told me about what she saw.

Jesper

Taking care of a kid was easier than expected. She ran on apple juice and stolen cookies, so she was basically Wylan trying to finish up a new bomb. As he messed around with the wiring on a smoke bomb, Evelyn and I talked. I found out she had a big sister, Roslyn. Roslyn was still at the last orphanage, and after running to get milk one evening, Evelyn realized she had gotten lost. She couldn't remember the name of the orphanage, so I started writing them out on a napkin. There were three orphanages in Ketterdam, and one near the Barel. When Inej and Kaz came down to the bar, I told them about what I learned.

So I just wanted to give you guys this, I knows it sucks but I just found out my friends dog passed last night, so I have no motivation to write. (I write the beginning first, so I had no clue about what happened, which is why it's so peppy.) side note; do you want Wylan and Matthias point of views or no? Just wondering.

Mental heath check: if you upset, or feel alone, pick up your phone and call a loved one. Talking might make it better. I love you all!
