    Summary

    The door slammed open. A girl hurried down the walkway so fast he barely had time to identify her. But the short glimpse of her side profile was more than enough. The exhilaration at his contrived plan somehow working gave him the confidence to blurt:

    “Briana Irene Matthews!”

    ...

    The first meeting, but in reverse.

    Summary

    Anthony Bridgerton does *not* want to marry Kate Sharma. And Kate Sharma definitely doesn’t have time to date Anthony Bridgerton. But a friends-with-benefits contract? That’s rational; in fact, it’s really just good sense.

    Things escalate quickly.

    Or:

    A modern, deconstructed Bridgerton (mostly) rom-dram. Kate, Anthony, their issues, and their families romp through a season in London.

    COMPLETE (but go follow Col and Pen’s story in Last Page)

    Summary

    Sleep is the girl you befriended in the sandbox back when your memories fuzz around the edges in distance. You are close at one point, braiding flowers and skipping with arms linked. You share crayons and make rhymes as you share the simplest secrets that seemed like such mysteries in the life of youth. But as years pass, your fingers slip from their firm grips on each other to loose clasps. You don’t share as much food anymore, and you aren’t aware of the crushes you had that week. You float apart until you say one last goodbye on that day you graduate, and you don’t see each other. You only catch glimpses of each other; rumors of how life was tripped along and longing wishes that there was more.

    Unlike many, Rosalind has somewhat rekindled this relationship with sleep. With years of unaffected insomnia, she lets the sun set her bones and body back into sleep. Warm and fuzzy.

    Summary

    "Is it working?" she murmurs, stepping even closer - and dragging his hand down until his palm's over her entire bosom--

    "Working?" he repeats dumbly, unable to do much more than echo her words.

    If he flexes his fingers now, he'll most definitely be cupping her--

    "I was reading, you know, in your absence," she says, angling her neck - as if purposely showing him the throat he's free to feast on. Which he does, with his eyes alone. "How to be a proper viscountess, for one. And how a lady can, and should--"

    Here, she places a tiny, almost imperceptible kiss at the side of his mouth, "--seduce a gentleman."

    Summary

    He had blushed like mad the first time he'd been anything more than polite in bed, and tripped over apology after apology as if that would make her forget his behavior. But it had been irreversibly branded in his mind. There was something steely and uncompromising under the gentle exterior of the boy that had kissed her so carefully in London. 

    Sometimes she wonders if Beck brought this out of him. Peter harbors a silent anger at the man that launched him into infamy. He is supposed to be better than anger. Or at least she knows that is what he feels. She sees the way he carries the burden of these feelings with some kind of misguided righteousness. 

    It is okay to be mad, she tells him. It is okay to feel whatever you feel. 

    He always reaches for her in those moments.

    Summary

    After a long moment, Kaz exhaled and leant back in his chair.
    "I can have him dead by tonight," He said, “If you don’t mind the Van Eck household getting involved.”
    Inej stared at him.
    “That's it? You’ll help?” She asked dubiously.
    Kaz frowned.
    “Would I have bothered to listen if I wasn’t going to?”
    "No 'what's in it for me'? What happened to never something for nothing?”
    "Well, it’s lucky for you that there's already something in it for me, isn’t it?"

    ---

    Inej needs a powerful man dead. Kaz, busy conducting 'renovations' across the West Stave and feuding with famous stage actors, is glad to have the opportunity to eliminate a threat.

    Summary

    A Canon Divergence AU in which Kaz and Jordie both make it out of the Reaper's Barge alive, but Kaz still becomes Dirtyhands. Insights into Kaz's childhood and why he became Dirtyhands while Jordie doesn't, and how Kaz becomes close to the crows.
    -

    One of the letters is from Jordie and Kaz stops and stares.

    “What?” Inej asks him. She doesn’t look at the scribbled words on the back of the envelope until Kaz tilts it towards her to read, and when she does, her face morphs into one of pure confusion.

    Kaz Fucking BREKKER or whatever your name is, if you don’t reply to this letter you are going to be in so much trouble. You’re in trouble regardless, but be prepared, you dumbass. I am so fucking mad at you. - Jordan Rietveld, Lola’s Inn, Lij, Southeastern Kerch.

    Summary

    “I can see the headlines now: Un-pickable lock picked. Could this be the work of Dirtyhands?”

    Kaz snorts, gloved fingers already working.

    “Then again,” he continues, “maybe they’ll finally stop calling you that. You know – since you’re clearly so good with your hands.”

    Kaz tenses. “What?”

    Jesper’s grin turns positively feral, dark eyes glinting. “But nobody but our dear Inej would actually know about that, now would they?”
    ----

    Or, everyone in the Barrel assumes Kaz is having sex with Inej and he's not sure how exactly he feels about that.

    Going to DC was part celebration, part education, and part birthday trip. But that last part wasn’t happening in DC. That part was happening in New York City. She was going to have an adults-only trip because as much as she adored her children, the best gift she could have was an evening when she could be Sarah, the Woman; not Sarah, the Mother or Sarah, the Sister or even Sarah, the Widow.
