the queen's lady by 19burstraat (astardanced)
Fandoms: Six of Crows Series - Leigh Bardugo

Summary
“So, yes.” Kaz said. “It is a good idea to collect in the Barrel. Merchers don’t care about some puerile charity project, but the Barrel is built of survivors. It has a very long memory. Say some jumped-up kid pinches some kruge from them. When he comes back to his boss, who lost his girl and his Da and his best friend in the Queen’s Lady, and presents him with money that’s meant to be funding a memorial for them? Them, the people who never get a scrap of respect, who were left to die in the streets? That kid will be lucky if he escapes with both of his hands.”
--
or: on the 10 year anniversary of the queen's lady plague, the holy ghezen health institute aim to erect a memorial for the victims, but they struggle to find the funds. kaz is selfish in a selfless way.
and thanks to some sleuthing from wylan, jesper finds out who jordie is.

Summary
“Before what?” demanded Jordie.
Inej’s gaze bored into them, for a moment. Finally, she said:
“Before I try to convince Kaz that you’re not imposters, that he should have strangled and thrown into the harbour.”
Jordie’s neck prickled, thinking of the hard-eyed stare in the Crow Club.
“I’ve been in enough harbours for one lifetime, thank you.” he said.
He was rewarded with a very faint smile.
“...you’re not as dissimilar as he’d like, you know.”
--
besting impossible odds is apparently a genetic trait, because jordie is definitely not as dead as kaz thought.

Summary
Wylan forced a smile. He felt childish, too. Stupid. He’d been with Jesper for years. They were happy together, truly. They didn’t need a big party with flowers and music and cake to prove it. They didn’t need a contract —a silly piece of paper, meaningless signatures— to validate their relationship.
It wasn’t like he’d be able to read it anyway.
OR: a wesper wedding fic. light angst, but a happy ending is guaranteed!

The Astute Tourist's Guide to Ketterdam by terribletruths
Fandoms: Six of Crows Series - Leigh Bardugo
07 Jul 2021
Tags
Summary
A love song. Who the hell was listening to such whimsy, amongst the murderers and the thugs of the Barrel?
(You are, and you’re the cruelest of them all.)
Kaz scowled into the darkness of the room. It’s not like he had much choice, unless he opened the window and shot the singer.---
Most sensible people avoid the Barrel during major celebrations, out of a healthy sense of self-preservation and fondness for their limbs and wallets. Kaz, on the other hand, does not have the luxury of avoiding everyone else's good cheer. What he does have is a useless gang full of teenage idiots, an irritatingly persistent three-legged dog, a few memories he'd rather forget, and a time limit.

Summary
A series of somewhat lengthy one-shots centered around the idea that Jordie (miraculously) is resurrected and shows up in Ketterdam post Crooked Kingdom.
NO changes to Kaz's or any of the other crow's backstories.This series is not marked as complete mostly bc I'm probably going to keep adding to it whenever I'm in the mood, and the fact that each installment is a completed story.

Summary
Nina finally came to herself and burst out into the aisle to confront Kaz, indignant.
“You said we were needed for a job at a wedding!”
“You are,” said Kaz briskly, taking the ledger from Rotty and flipping through it.
“I thought we’d be robbing some mercher event! Doing a real job!”
“That’s your folly. Besides, I haven’t told you what you have to do, yet.”
“This is your wedding!"
Kaz looked blankly at her.
“Did I say it wasn’t?”

“Well,” said Nina, making an effort to sound cheery, knocking her mug into Wylan’s in salute. “Off he goes to Hellgate! He clearly hated listening to you lay out everything he’d ever done wrong under an oath to Ghezen. His expression was almost as tragic as his hairline--”
Wylan smiled weakly-- and then had it immediately wiped off his face by Kaz’s response.
“Except he didn't,” said Kaz.
Everyone’s heads turned.
“What d’you mean?” frowned Jesper. Wylan stared warily down the table--
“Wylan didn’t lay out everything his father had ever done wrong.”

Summary
Kaz is prepared to bribe the owners of the other gambling halls not to admit him—he’s prepared to send some of the younger Dregs to beat Jesper to a mild pulp every time he tries to enter the Barrel, if necessary—but he hopes it won’t come to that. If you could beat an addiction out of someone, Jesper would have been cured years ago.
“What, then? Spit it out.”
The other man pauses at the window, staring out at the rain, and swallows before finally saying, “Wylan asked me to marry him.”

“Oh, don’t worry,” Luz said, reaching around for her pockets, “I have my…”
Now it was Luz’s turn to trail off into silence, cold and confused and heavy like snow. A completely powerless glyph paper crumpled between her fingers and fluttered, like all things dead and wilting, to the cold floor. Tears glimmered on her cheeks under the overhead lights. Amity reached out a hand.
“Luz.”
“Amity.” Luz linked their hands together again. Amity couldn’t feel her skin underneath all the crusted blood and rot. “Let me wash your hair.”
———
After the final fight with Belos, Luz and Amity bathe together and take care of each other.
