    Summary

    Instead of Alina and Mal being saved from the whaler by Sturmhond's crew, Mal is accidentally killed by the sea whip and Alina is saved alongside Genya from the Darkling.
    They decide to return together to the Little Palace and team up to defeat the Darkling (and every small decision diverges the plot further from the original books, into a completely different outcome). They find out the villains have their reasons and are not soulless as they are thought to be, and the people that others look up to are the real villains.
    Alina is bolder than in the original series because we want the plot to go forward in a more logical way - and also the protagonist deserves a real character arc.
    Also, mind the tags. The first few chapters may seem a little darker, but then the fun begins :)

     

    Edit: just updated the last chapter! If you'd only like a glimpse at what could become of Ravka if things were different in the sense explained above, and you could use a good laugh, I highly encourage you to read at least this!

    Summary

    "Пускай погибну я, но прежде, я в ослепительной надежде." Let me die, but first, let me feel blinding hope (ossia. a failing singer's last hope). (Eugene Onegin, P.I. Tchaikovsky)

    Alina knows that she won't succeed. Alina knows that she can't let her debts pile and grow. Alina knows that the closest she will ever get to singing on the stage is humming while building sets. She doesn't have the lyrical beauty of a Nazyalenskaya, or the stratospheric virtuosity to be a next Auclair.

    When Nazyalenskaya withdraws from a highly anticipated role debut, the Os Alta Opera is thrown into chaos with no understudy and the threat of closing. Alina is pushed back into the limelight that she once sought. The world she loves is far more sinister than what it looks from the surface, but the one opportunity she has left will never be wasted.

    The bigger question is, who exactly is Kirigan, and what does he want from her?

    Rewrite of Quasi Presto (https://archiveofourown.org/works/20053813). Very much a Darklina/Alarkling fanfic. This author gives terrible, horrible, no-good relationship advice too :p

    Summary

    With few friends at the Little Palace, Alina must work to win the favour of her fellow grisha and their commander, who makes her feel light headed every time she sees him.
    After training in Os Alta for two years, the king grows tired of waiting and demands the Sun Summoner joins a western post near the Fjerdan border along with the rest of The Second Army to test her abilities.
    Something happens. Suddenly, Alina wants blood to run down the rivers and those who stand in her and The Darkling’s way will be blinded by her light and swallowed by his shadows.
    It won’t be pretty.

    Summary

    It’s a testimony to the power of his family, even in the face of the gossip that defines the Capitol, that the first time someone calls him ‘bastard’ directly to his face, Nikolai is six years old.

    He has to ask his nanny what it means and she doesn’t answer, telling him not to be concerned about other people’s opinions, that he’s a Lantsov and that’s what matters. Unsatisfied with this answer he asks his mother, in the time he manages to catch her between luncheons and cocktail parties, and she turns pale before brushing him aside and saying that it doesn’t matter, that they’re just trying to hurt him because he’s the Head Gamemaker’s son.

    Before she leaves she turns to him and grabs his arm, tightly, and tells him not to tell his father. The bruises from the force of her grip last for a week, and Nikolai never asks about it again.

    Summary

    It was not his idea of a good time.

    Nikolai had many ideas about good times—ask anyone—but remarkably, none of them involved a dilapidated shack near the Elbjen, the snow coming down faster than you could blink it from your eyelashes, a wind with a mind all its own and grievances to tell, and the dull throb of newly forming bruises.

    Even fewer ideas about a good time involved Vasily.

    aka the one where the Lantsov brothers get snowed into a shack together and argue about firewood but actually it’s about Ravka

    Summary

    She closes her eyes against the pain of it, breath hissing through her teeth as she tries to pull back and away. But he’s there, keeps her still, palm firm between her shoulder blades as he holds her down and still.

    “Breathe, Alina,” he reprimands. The needle drags along her skin and leaves a hot trail behind. She forces herself to open her eyes, to look up at him, to watch the concentration, intent, to focus on his face. She takes as deep a breath as she can manage and then lets it out slowly. “Good girl,” he murmurs.

    Plot rewrite from the moment Alina finds out she's the Sun Summoner. Started as a vague "tattoos, but Grisha" and exploded into this 45k plus word fic.

    Summary

    “That there may be given unto them the soberness of life, and fruit of the womb may be most expedient for them; let us pray to the Saints.”

    It was all Aleksander’s fault.

    All his stupid fault.

    Summary

    Alina Starkova, 26, considers herself not much of a soprano after a brief brush with fame a long time ago. Fate has other plans when famed soprano Zoya Alexeyevna Nazyalenskaya's role of Cio-Cio san in Madama Butterfly is given to her.

    The role offers her a new path that she never knew existed, into a foray of Verdi, Bellini, and Donizetti, and she realizes what surviving this world entails when she is swept into court cases, betrayal, and careful emotions.

    There is a girl called Alina Starkova, and she does not want anything but her peace. Wants can be a strange thing. The girl called Alinechka is hardly ever present, hidden behind a mask called Miss Starkova.

    There is a man called Aleksandr Morozov, who plays a borrowed Guadagnini with utmost control and clarity. There is a boy there somewhere called Sanya Baghrich who does not like playing the Mendelssohn concerto in E minor.

    Summary

    The Icarus/Darklina mashup nobody asked for - smashing Darklina and some scraps of Greek mythology together and shouting "NOW KISS" before tearing up some Thrice lyrics and throwing them overtop like pretentious confetti.

    Daedalus - Thrice

    In order to maintain its virility, to be kept at its full potential, the beast required a regular diet of otkazat'sya. Each year, fourteen tributes were sent from the mainland with the Morozovs’ regular shipment of supplies. There were volunteers, especially at first: those who were elderly, failing, willing to give their lives in service of their country. Most were compelled: criminals, deserters.

    The tributes disembarked after the supplies. Most were old, infirm. The last tribute to descend the ramp was a young woman: pale, dark haired, a shawl the color of goldenrod wrapped around her thin shoulders. She fixed her gaze on Baghra's distended abdomen and smiled. Baghra promptly forgot her, and did not pity the tributes. Their sentences on the island would be brief.

    Summary

    The Darkling is not the only one with an obsession with a certain sun summoner. Alina is confused, afraid, overwhelmed etc at first, but after a while sees the benefits of the new position she finds herself in. And did one Lantsov apple really fall off so far from the three or are they much more alike and is one apple just flavored slightly more bitter and spicy.

    Summary

    suddenly i knew it was you / all along

     

    On ordinary days, weeks, months, years, there is very little news to go around Keramzin. The orphanage up on the wind-swept hill and the children slowly growing up within its walls keep to themselves, for the most part: the towners ignore the children, or offer a few more coins to keep the orphanage’s coffers full. For the most part, Keramzin is quiet, with little trouble and no rackets to disturb the peaceful sleepiness of the town. 

    Out-of-towners, however, always means at least a little piece of trouble. And when said out-of-towners are renting a manor near the town, wealthy people, with the glitz of the city still clinging to them… Well, then, the uproar in Keramzin was quite a sight to see.
