    Summary

    Every new year hundreds receive a death sentence in the form of a black skull mark on their arm. Some spend their last days seeking pleasure. Others fall into despair as if they were dead already. Some try to right their wrongs. Kaz Brekker welcomes any of them into the Dregs so long as they have a useful talent.

    Some rumors claim, he keeps their hearts in jars. He delights in tormenting them, others whisper. He made a deal with the devil for their souls, others are convinced. Whatever the reason, one thing is known: Kaz Brekker only hires those who are already dying. Kaz lets the rumors go because they are useful and because they are all less horrific than what he actually is.

    *** Please read the warnings in the first chapter note.

    Summary

    The faculty at Ketterdam University can't wrap their heads around the Crow Chronicle’s sudden boom in popularity- is there something new about the design that draws people's attention? Perhaps it's the addition of the local bites column written by the ever-so-charming marketing major from Ravka?

    Even Professor Haskell, the club's advisor, can't pinpoint what's changed, other than the two co- editors-in-chief he recently appointed. The pairing is, admittedly, a recipe for disaster, considering the two are tied for the top spot in KU's journalism program, challenging each other every chance they get.

    It's no matter, the Crow Chronicle is a hit, which means Haskell must be doing something right. Besides, in his experience, most of the time the paper's success is dependent on something trivial, like where the stands are located or how often it rains each week.

    Most of the time, at least.

    or:
    Kanej-centric academic rivals to lovers because I'm crazy for these two and this concept has been keeping me up at night.

    Summary

    The chattering masses of people he passed didn’t know it yet, but they would one day fear the half-drowned nine year old shaking from the cold and the effects of the plague.

    Then again, no one knew much about Kaz Brekker. They didn’t know he wasn’t from the Barrel or that he’d once had a family. They never guessed where the rasp in his young voice came from. They certainly didn’t know why he really wore gloves. Most weren’t even convinced he was human. No one ever suspected that Kaz Brekker was deaf.

    *** Basically a random story of what if Kaz went deaf from the plague. It starts sort of pre-canon and has expanded. I am bad at summaries so read the first chapter if you want to get a feel for what this story is.

    Reincarnation AU with 3 separate Cycles: one taking place in 1815 England (Regency AU), one taking place in 1920 England (Wartime AU), and one taking place in 2010 England (Modern AU). The reincarnation aspect is getting a bit muddied as I'm writing it (lol) but that was the base idea I started with.

    Summary

    “Look,” Nina says. Inej has startled her badly enough that she’s made a mess of her eyeliner – the wing on her right eye careens wildly to one side.

     

    “I’m all for reclaiming your sexuality. Seriously. Two thumbs up from me. But, honestly, Inej, does it have to be with the most emotionally unavailable man you know?”

     

    “Well, who would you suggest?”

     

    Nina’s eyes bulge. “Oh, I don’t know, literally anyone with a pulse and a conscience?”

     

    “Kaz has –

     

    “We don’t know that,” Nina says sternly.

    Summary

    Her inky black hair cascaded in silken waves down her back, a few artfully loosened strands framing her face with an elegance that felt both deliberate and effortless. Delicate gold earrings adorned her ears in asymmetrical placements, their subtle gleam echoing the glint of a small, perfectly positioned ring on her sloping nose. Her makeup whispered rather than spoke — soft, refined, enhancing rather than concealing — much like the subtle grace that seemed to emanate from her very being.

    Kaz found himself transfixed. She was a masterpiece, sculpted by an artist’s deft hand or brushed into existence with the finest strokes of a painter’s vision. There was no other explanation for beauty so effortless, so utterly spellbinding. Especially amidst a place like this.

    Or, Inej needs help escaping a creep at a bar. Kaz, having never met her before but desperate to escape his boring shift, helps her out.

    Summary

    It's human nature to crave physical connection, even if a person hates it. Even if they're terrified of it.
    Kaz has spent nine years trying to ignore this fact, and now he can't confront it alone.

    (Or: Kaz is deeply touch-starved but still too touch-averse to do anything about it. Inej helps him find a way.)

    Summary

    Kaz wasn’t sure what to make of his new roommate but he was sure that they wouldn’t get on. Jesper, as Kaz found out within seconds of meeting him, was too loud for someone like Kaz to get along with.
    too loud and too much.
    choosing to want some peace, kaz messaged inej to meet somewhere far enough away from their dorm that he didn’t have to think about his obnoxious roommate.

    Summary

    Certain vending machines on campus require exact change.
    Kaz Brekker knows this. Loathes this. Has lobbied for the replacement and improvement of the machines which still exclusively take exact change.
    And yet he still finds himself standing in front of one of the two change machines on campus (he really should just go to the bank) in order to cram a few bucks into it to get some change.

    ~*~*~*~*~

    There were only a handful of vending machines on campus that required exact change. But this one, nestled into the back hallway happened to have a Suli mango pop flavored one that reminded Inej of her parents and summer and the sea and the wind (and maybe it was starting to remind her of someone else too).

    Summary

    After a series of unfortunate circumstances leave six almost-strangers sharing a run-down house in one of Ketterdam's worst neighborhoods, they quickly find out they have more in common than the horrible streak of bad luck that has led them there. As they work to build a new life form the ashes of their past-selves, they face the increasingly absurd and erratic challenges that come with being young, poor, and lost in this fast-paced modern world.

    Summary

    Jasmine Fenton loved her little brother. She considered “Danny's big sister” a fundamental part of her identity. In fact, she held this fragment of herself so close to her heart that it was impossible that she could exist as herself, Jazz Fenton, without the part of her that was her brother's sister. She wasn't dependent on him to define her, of course, and she understood herself as an individual outside of her role as an older sister. It didn't matter, though. None of her dissection of her and Danny's dynamic changed the fact that she was losing Danny, that somehow, something had changed, and since then she had been desperately reaching across a crack in her very world for a brother who didn't care if she let them both fall off the edge. She knew logically that that's how it was, how it was supposed to be. Danny was a teenager. She was nearly graduated, and ready to leave Amity Park and start a new life. It still didn't make her feel any less like the further away Danny drifted, the more she lost herself with him.

    Summary

    The regulars in the café whisper about him. “New to town,” they say. “Private.” “Keeps to himself.” “Hands like someone who’s fought and kept all his scars.”

    Inej learns nothing except that he is running from something as fiercely as she once did.

    She tells herself to stay away. She tells herself that harbor towns swallow wanderers whole because currents pull similar souls toward each other, and that is the very thing she has vowed to avoid.

    And yet—

    One morning, she pours his coffee, and he finally speaks to her.

    His voice is a knife wrapped in velvet. “You replaced the old barista.”

    “I work some mornings,” she says.

    Kaz nods once, like the information matters.

    “It tastes the same,” he says.

    She doesn’t know why her heart jolts. It shouldn’t. Men like him never mean what they seem to mean.

    She forces a smile. “Coffee is coffee.”

    “Not always,” he replies. “Some people ruin it.”

     

    Or: Small seaside town romance with a coffee shop and two people who moved their to escape their pasts.
