    Summary

    “Wylan…” Jesper whispered again, his voice heavy, “I’m scared,”
    Wylan wasn’t sure he’d ever heard Jesper freely admitting that before. He wished that he could hold him properly, but the best that he could do was grip his hand securely, push his thumb in soft, slow circles against his skin, run his fingers through his hair. The air seemed to crackle around him as stroked Jesper’s cheek, ran a thumb along his cheekbone to catch the single tear that had escaped there.
    “I know, my darling,” he whispered, “I’ll keep you safe,”

    -OR-

    Jesper goes out on a job for Kaz post-crooked kingdom, and comes home with two gunshot wounds. Wylan looks after him.

    Summary

    A strange rift forms around the country of Kerch, making it impossible to enter or leave the country or contact anyone outside. The Crows find themselves separated by poor timing and the formation of this seemingly unconquerable obstacle. In the years following, Kaz finds himself living in a world without his friends, truly alone for the first time since his rise to the top of the Barrel, and at risk of losing much of the progress he has made since the Ice Court.

    Or--- in lieu of anything exciting happening, Kaz Brekker decides he will clean up Ketterdam himself.

      Bookmark Notes:

      this is such a lovely fic, the way it shows the characters and their growth is just so fucking good and it is such a beautiful bender of grief, healing and re-learning to love that is just. amazing.

      i think a lot of people may think/feel like this is out of character but i feel like this is,, perfect?? because is not a 180°, this gives kaz time to process his emotions, change his views of the world and learn to be himself again and seeing that in the 8 years this take place is just incredible. also, the concept?!?! i fucking adore isolation fics and this one gets to show so much about the world of the characters and how they're able to change it. definitely worth a reading.

      also worth the reading because even tho it has it's moments of angst (and heavy one, because is kaz and aart) it has to be one of the fluffiest pieces i've read in this fandom.

    Summary

    Jesper Fahey agreed to meet me for coffee, but he’s running late. The clock ticks past 9:05, and I finish my newspaper. I’m tapping my foot on the tiled floor when finally around 9:15 Mr. Fahey bursts in through the door. He’s a whirlwind; in one of his silver-ringed hands is a messy stack of papers and his brightly patterned tie is askew.

    “Hi,” he says, giving me a breathless grin, “so sorry about that. Meeting ran over. Can I get you anything to drink?”

    Just like that, I forget I’ve been waiting at all.

    Summary

    There was a soft knock on the door. Before Kaz could give her permission, she was inside, looking at him with her honest brown eyes and a pitiful expression. There was nothing worse than Inej looking sorry for you. Particularly after what she had just witnessed.

    "I hope you're not here to tut your head at me for that little display. What was that Suli proverb again, the one you use in situations like this? They all merge into one patronising clump in my head."

    "I am not Jesper. You don't have to bring your defenses up."

    "You have a funny habit of trying to slip past them while they're down."

     

    ~~~~

    A scheme to sabotage Pekka Rollin's new club goes wrong when Jesper spots Wylan, now indentured to Pekka Rollins after having been missing for months during which Jesper believed Wylan had abandoned him. Little do they all know that Kaz has a plan. A plan that will take down all of their enemies and make them rich beyond their wildest dreams- provided their combined turmoil doesn't get in the way. Provided they can learn to understand each other.

      completed
      Very well written! Characterization and prose are skillful (I think the author mentioned in one of their notes that they're in law school, so that adds up), and the transposition of canon into the Hunger Games world is done realistically. I also like how this is a gen fic. There are a few points in the story where Kaz's actions struck me as slightly implausible or corny (him unhesitantly deciding, seemingly at least, to join the "rebels") but no more so, probably, than in the actual SOC series, and it didn't really ruin my experience. I just hope the story goes in a direction I like in the sequel(s), or I'll have to enjoy this as a stand-alone!

    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

    Kaz, sick and injured, decides to hide out at the empty Van Eck house. Unfortunately it isn’t as empty as he’d thought…

    -

    “You’re ill,” Mrs. Ghafa says, in a tone that does not suggest a willingness to compromise. “And you’re hurt. I admit we do not know all the customs of Kerch, but surely one does not leave an injured child lying on the kitchen floor.”

    “I am not a—,” Kaz snaps, ire up. “Go inflict your help on someone who wants it.” He pushes himself into a sitting position with his good hand, fully intending to stand and storm dramatically out the door.

    Strangely he finds himself on his back in the bed a second later, a cool cloth draped across his forehead.

    “You fainted again. Don’t sit up so quickly,” Mrs. Ghafa scolds.

    Summary

    Wylan knew he wasn’t cut out for volleyball or field hockey, lacrosse or football. Instead, he’d chosen what he figured was the easiest, least-intensive sport out there: badminton. It was just hitting a little birdie over a net, right? Easy lofts, back and forth, while the players chatted?

    That was how Wylan had always seen people play. He’d played badminton before, at the parties his father had dragged him to, on lofty nets set up outdoors. People hit the birdie halfheartedly. Half of the time the wind blew it off the court, no matter how hard it’d been hit.

    But this was nothing like the easygoing badminton he’d played before.

    What had Wylan gotten himself into?

    OR:

    Jesper and Inej are team captains and doubles partners, and Wylan and Kaz are newbies expecting an easy sport who fall in love with them.

    Summary

    To hide that he can't read, Jan Van Eck has been forcing his son to pretend he's blind since he was eight years old. Wylan is now attending Ketterdam University, and meeting Jesper Fahey may very well be about to change his life. But is he safe to tell Jesper the truth? And what will Jesper say if he does?

    Jesper is struggling to weigh up his life in the Barrel and his life at the University of Ketterdam, and there's a good chance that his growing debt is about to make the decision for him. He hasn't attended class consecutively for months, but maybe that will change when his newest project includes partnering up with Wylan Van Eck. But can he really leave the Barrel behind him? And how long can he keep up the pretence of who he thinks Wylan wants him to be?

    Meanwhile there is a darkness growing in Ketterdam, and it seems a killer may be stalking the streets of West Stave. An unknown evil is closing its jaws over the city, and it’s starting to feel like nowhere is safe.

    Summary

    Aarden's job for the Dregs is mostly smuggling. Aarden's official job is mostly tattooing. Inevitably, it falls on him to ink up the new guys. Regrettably, maybe, Aarden's full time job is being a dad. It's not that he feels very paternal towards Dirtyhands, it's just that someone might as well try and see the boy behind the brawn.

    Title from this song, which, apart from the obvious, I think rather fits Kaz's vibe.

    I've put this in the series because to me it's all in the same 'verse but it's really an unrelated prequel and can absolutely be read on its own.
