    Summary

    They might seem like ordinary high school students but the Crows are actually an up and coming team of vigilantes in Ketterdam. They foil bank robberies (when they can collect a finder’s fee), steal from the rich (and sometimes give to the poor) and stop gangs (when they encroach on their territory, that is). When Jan Van Eck starts drafting a law that requires all people with powers to register with the government and mob boss Pekka Rollins starts working with notable indenture trader Heleen van Houden, however, superheroing goes from an after-school job to a matter of life and death.

    Summary

    Love said, "You shall be he."
    "I, the unkind, ungrateful? Ah, my dear,
    I cannot look on thee."
    Love took my hand, and smiling did reply,
    "Who made the eyes but I?"

    - "Love (III)", George Herbert
    -

    10 years after losing his brother to the city of Ketterdam, Jordie Rietveld decides to take his fledgling worker's group, made up of other orphan train riders and former indentures, and their demands to the nation's capitol. With Wylan Van Eck sitting on the Merchant Council, and the Wraith hunting slavers in the True Sea, it finally feels like someone might actually be there to listen. Once he gets back to Ketterdam, though, he finds himself facing a lot more than he bargained for, including Merchant Council politics, gang members, and a familiar face that isn't at all happy to see him.

    A Jordie lives fic.

    Summary

    Kaz decided it was now or never. "By the way, you don't happen to know where Jordie is?"

    All the faces in the room turned to him and he could see the mood change immediately in a way that made his stomach twist. The silence wasn't a comfortable one anymore. He saw Jesper and Inej exchange looks, and Nina and Matthias stare at him with open confusion. Wylan looked at his boyfriend for whatever reason. And there was something else on all of their faces. They were all looking at him like he had a screw loose.

    "No?", Jesper said eventually. "Shouldn't...YOU know that?"

    Well, shit. He botched that phenomenally.

    Summary

    It would be a very gentlemanly thing to do, she thinks, to offer his jacket to a lady, but for the fact that it’s a muggy midsummer evening and no extra layer of warmth is needed.

     

    He’s not being a gentleman, she decides, as she follows him down to the canal where he’s untying one of those funny little boats. He probably just doesn’t want to be seen taking a moonlit stroll with a whore.

     

    After being rescued from the nightmare of the Menagerie, Inej gets to know her new companion over contract negotiation.

    Summary

    Kaz Rietveld died in the harbor when he was nine. Soon after, Kaz Brekker appeared in Ketterdam, spinning the story of two lives he’d taken already at such a young age. The deaths of two farmboys from Lij he insisted were his own doing, his own fault.

    Rumors of the deaths of the Rietveld boys at Brekker's hands spread.
    One day, they circled around and reached the ears of a strangely not dead Jordie Rietveld.

    (Or: Jordie lives and comes to believe the mysterious Dirtyhands is the one who ran the con that supposedly killed his little brother)
