Summary
‘Drowning,’ Wylan repeats, giggling. He burrows into Jesper’s side, making himself comfortable, and Jesper can’t help the besotted grin tugging at the corner of his mouth—but that’s okay, because everyone else looks charmed by their resident pigeon too.
‘Yeah?’ Nina says, from where she’s sat almost entirely in Mattias’ lap, ‘Were you drowning in alcohol, Wylan?’
‘No,’ he says, drawing the word out, and then he shakes his head again like he’s trying to think of something, ‘Weeeell, I’ve been drowned before. But not in alcohol.’ And, as if to offset the statement, he giggles and relaxes into Jesper once again.
(or, where an innocuous word makes a drunk, loose-lipped wylan spill the beans about his childhood.)

Summary
Kaz leaned back in his chair and set the notebook down. He looked at Wylan with renewed interest, like he was a lock that Kaz had to take apart. “Bad fathers exist everywhere in Ketterdam. Just because he didn’t kiss you goodnight doesn’t mean he wants you dead.”
Wylan bristled indignantly. “It’s the truth.”
“Even Van Eck cares about his legacy.”
“I’m not his legacy.” The words came out harder than Wylan intended. He was shocked by the force of them. They tasted bitter, like a poison he was drawing out of his body. And now that the truth was so close to the surface, he had to keep going. “I’ll never be. I’m useless to him. Because—, because—, because I can’t read.”
OR
The moment in SoC where Wylan tells Kaz he can't be his insurance, because we don't have enough Wylan POV in SoC. Set on the Ferolind after the Ice Court.

Summary
They’re kind of in the thick of the shit when the truth of Wylan’s identity comes out. No one really asks any questions, just takes the information at face value and moves along.
One of Wylan’s first nights in the barrel, a street merchant had laughed at Wylan as he stopped to offer a girl with messy hair and dirt smeared across her face half of the loaf of bread he’d just purchased. As he’d stooped down to offer it to her and check her over for injuries, her twin brother had bustled behind him, looting the rest of the measly krudge from Wylan’s pocket. When he’d crossed the street to the merchant to buy some fruit the merchant had chuffed he didn't have any krudge to offer. Wylan frantically searched his pocket only to come up empty handed.
“You gotta assume the worst about everyone in the barrel kid. ‘Cause you gotta be at your worst to end up in the dirty barrel.” The merchant offered him a dropped and bruised apple and sent him to scurry off. The kids have taken the money he’d been carrying to pay for his boarding for the week.
Or, the five times the crows are mean to Wylan after finding out his true identity, and the one time they try to make it up to him.

Summary
"We will get paid either way, Jesper. We have a guarantee."
A guarantee?" The Zemini asked. "What guarantee?"
And then everything stopped. Wylan could hear his own heart beating, threatening to burst out of his chest, while the room stayed silent. He reluctantly raised his head to meet Kaz's gaze, still on him.
If Wylan thought Kaz was less cruel, he'd think he spared him. That he would give him the chance to tell them at his own time.
But that wasn't the case.
"You are going to make me say it, right?" Kaz muttered and Jesper and Nina turned their heads to see Wylan as well.
"Say what?" Jesper's hands stopped playing with his fingers. Wylan already missed the motion.
"Everyone," Kaz sighed. "Meet Wylan 𝘝𝘢𝘯 𝘌𝘤𝘬. Our guarantee."

Summary
Something grabs at the back of his coat and suddenly he’s flying, pulled up out of the water to land in a sodden heap in a small rowboat, the world’s most ungainly fish. He scrabbles away from his rescuer, expecting to feel pain again, his father’s men back to finish the job. Instead there’s a boy with light brown skin and grey eyes, the most handsome face he’s ever seen.
As he casts around, confused, he finds himself looking into a pair of boundless dark eyes, a pale face cold as canal water. “Wylan Van Eck?” the man asks, his voice like rust, his tone as formal as if they’re being introduced at some banquet. Wylan is too startled to do anything but nod.
Pekka Rollins and Jan Van Eck have made a deal. Kaz Brekker wants to sabotage it. What better way than to take Van Eck's son hostage on his way to music school?
Meanwhile, Jesper wants the cute merchling they've kidnapped to smile at him, and Wylan just wants to survive the night.

Summary
“How would I want you to be who you used to be?” Wylan nearly yells, staring at him with wide and angry eyes. "I didn’t know you, whoever ‘who you used to be’ is! I’m trying to tell you that just because you don’t want to be whoever that was again, it doesn’t mean you can just be horrible to everyone else!”
“And what if I did?”
Or, Kaz gets into a fight with Wylan. Apparently, he wants to be happy with his friends a little more than he thought.

Summary
They lie on the edge of the roof, watching the guests arrive at the Ice Court, dignitaries, performers, the workers from the West Stave houses. In the midst of the glittering crowds one group stands out, a blot of darkness among the gaudy frocks and suits.
Inej inhales sharply. She’s looking down at the man in the centre of the group, whose reddish hair is going sparse on top. “Isn’t that–”
Beside Jesper, Wylan stills, his body a tense line.
“Van Eck,” Kaz confirms. His face turns grimmer than usual.
Wylan’s secret is revealed at the worst time, and in the worst way. Everything afterwards happens a little differently.

Summary
They were on a job, just like any other, honestly. And for once, it was going off splendidly, no hiccups in sight. That was, until it ended up in a shootout in the backstreets of Ketterdam.
Oh. That’s not good, he thought, seeing the blossom of crimson red over his stomach. He didn’t even realize he had been shot. And with the smoke and running, no one else had even given him a second glance to see if he was okay. Everyone had just assumed they were all okay, just like Wylan did with them.
Except, he wasn’t okay. The blood was spreading, seeping down his button up shirt. He had really liked that shirt too. His hands went to the wound subconsciously, almost immediately becoming soaked in blood.
OR
Wylan gets shot on a job, and the rest of the Crows take care of him.
