Summary
He’d surprised her on her last birthday – and surprised her good. Inej wore a crooked grin on her lips in the dark when she thought of it, as she held lock picks in her teeth. That sly, clever bastard.
She’d get him this time.
A lovely anonymous on Tumblr asked for a little something about Kaz and Inej celebrating a birthday, and I got kinda carried away.

Summary
“Do you know what you do to me?” Kaz rasped close to her ear, and it sent shivers dancing down her spine. She turned her face towards him.
“Should I stop?” she asked in a whisper.
Or - the one where Inej has sex dreams.

Summary
Well, fine. She wasn’t stooping to his level. Inej squared back her shoulders and leaned her mouth close to the door.
“These walls are thin,” she informed him. “And some of us are trying to sleep for the first time in days. So…could you stomp quieter? Please.”The walls are very thin in the old rickety house they called The Slat. Inej attempts to quiet the strange boy who lives above her, but, over the years, gets a whole lot more than she bargained for.

Summary
“Hush. Let him speak, my dear.”
Bewilderingly, all the breath seems to go out Kaz at once. He slumps back, almost boneless, into his chair as Wylan begins to explain the physics of night and day. At first, Inej is pleased with her victory, but something about Jesper’s grin is far too conspiratorial for her liking.
She peeks over at Kaz, who is very clearly trying to avoid looking at her. Slowly, in a manner of scheming she has learned from Kaz and Kaz alone, her mind begins to turn.

Summary
Anika glances at Inej again, takes in the sheet of long, black hair that clung loosely around her bronzed collarbones, the wide brown eyes that were far too gentle for the Barrel, the simple grace with which she held her fork.
If this is what Kaz Brekker liked in a woman, Anika doesn’t think anyone else would ever stand a chance.

Or, the five times someone realizes that Kaz has ever deepening feelings for Inej, and the one time he realizes it for himself.

Summary
“I can see the headlines now: Un-pickable lock picked. Could this be the work of Dirtyhands?”
Kaz snorts, gloved fingers already working.
“Then again,” he continues, “maybe they’ll finally stop calling you that. You know – since you’re clearly so good with your hands.”
Kaz tenses. “What?”
Jesper’s grin turns positively feral, dark eyes glinting. “But nobody but our dear Inej would actually know about that, now would they?”
----Or, everyone in the Barrel assumes Kaz is having sex with Inej and he's not sure how exactly he feels about that.

I Don't Ever Trust, But I Still Choose You by cordelianoir

Summary
Kaz had set aside his cane, hat and coat and he looked oddly delicate now, sitting beside her in his shirtsleeves and vest. His body was angled toward her as much as possible on the small sofa, holding her hand and keeping his bitter-coffee eyes trained on her face. His gloves were still on, but somehow she knew that it was due to the relative strangeness of her parents rather than to hide his hands from her. He held her hand so tightly that she could feel the little slits in the fingertips, little absences of contact from the leather covering the rest of her hand.

Takes place immediately following the events of Crooked Kingdom. We meet Inej's parents and get some closure for everyone involved.

Summary
“You’re Jordan’s wife?”
If anyone in their town would’ve gone out looking for a foreign beauty, it would’ve been Jordie. He had an adventurer’s spirit, bold and daring. If Maja squinted at the old rope swing by the lake, she could still see the silhouette of him, leaping into the water while Kasper worried from his perch on the banks.
But Inej’s face freezes in an odd expression. “Not quite,” she says haltingly. “I’m married to his younger brother – Kaz?”

Or, the town of Lij is endlessly fascinated with the mysterious Mr. and Mrs. Rietveld each and every time they visit.

Summary
"Kaz opened the door, and the sight of her was almost enough to make him forget everything — the pain, the guilt, the turmoil of emotion this day had been. A string of tension snapped, releasing him. She was at the window, dark hair loose to the wind, casually perched on it just like she used to, before everything. The crows she’d taken the time to feed fretted around her, recognizing her careful fingers. A younger one had nestled in her lap, and gently, she petted its ruffled feathers.
'Pretty' was nowhere near enough. She was every beautiful thing in the world.
Kaz found the breath he’d lost, and felt a tired smile bloom on his lips."
------
Six months after the events of Crooked Kingdom, Kaz Brekker begins to heal. It starts with a long-owed apology to a friend, and the return of the Wraith in Ketterdam.

let me not to the marriage of true minds admit impediments by cameliawrites
Fandoms: Six of Crows Series - Leigh Bardugo
02 Mar 2022
Tags
Summary
She’s mentioned marriage a few times, in the soft, sweet quiet of the night, when they’re tucked together in his bed—him practicing caressing the skin of her hands and arms without revulsion, her practicing laying in bed with a man without fear. “When my parents were married,” she’d start, or, “In Suli weddings,” and then finally, a few months later, “Do you ever think about getting married?” To the final question, he’d been reticent to say anything more than “Yes,” quietly, fervently, but it was enough for her, in the moment, that she didn’t need to ask any more.
***
In which Kaz & Inej negotiate the particularities of a marriage contract—for the tax benefits, of course, but also for the sake of their undying devotion to one another.

Summary
“HAND OVER THE RAVKAN, OR WE WILL BREAK IN.” A man wearing the silver badge of a stadwatch captain bellowed at the wrong window.
“Like hell you will.” Brekker growled to himself, standing reluctantly and limping to the window.
Inej just shook her head.
“They won’t have any intelligence. Kaz is just the prime suspect whenever anything goes wrong for the Merchant Council.”
The prime suspect sighed deeply, shoved the window open with his cane, and leant out.----
Inej acquires a rather valuable political prisoner. Kaz acquires a burning hatred for him.
