    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

    "As they began walking, he forced his face into neutrality, buried any evidence of the thoughts that ran through his mind. They would have to find out eventually. Perhaps not all of it, and ideally not all at once, but in due time the truth would become unavoidable. They spoke of survival as if it was an honorable thing, but where that ship had taken Inej, only those with the sharpest of claws and malleable of morals made it out alive. Dirtyhands may have become his title, but nobody around here could claim cleanliness. Not even the dead."

     

    or, a continuation picking off right where crooked kingdom left off.

    Summary

    The last thing Kaz Brekker had expected to see when he opened the door to his office in the Slat was his dead brother standing on his threshold. Anika stood off to the side of the landing, lightly cringing, obviously waiting for the wrath of Dirtyhands to rain down on her for bringing him a visitor he had neither expected nor vetted.

    Jordie Rietveld stood in the doorway panting lightly from exertion, nervousness oozing from every pore in his body, but with his back ramrod straight. “I need your help,” he said.

    Kaz was tempted to slam the door in his face and lay down in his bed to sleep off whatever hallucinogenic concoction the Black Tips had managed to slip into his coffee that morning. Maybe Jesper had a point about him needing to catch more sleep.
    ...
    Or, the one where the rumors of Jordie Rietveld's death have only been somewhat exaggerated.

    Summary

    Jungkook can’t just walk up to a massive mansion in the middle of nowhere and expect to find someone willing to help him, right? This wasn’t a fairytale and things like that only happen in movies, right?

    Right?

    OR

    Jungkook is overworked, tired and getting inexplicable headaches. Did anyone really expect the Hyungs NOT to swaddle him in blankets and feel the overwhelming urge to protect him?

    Summary

    “What do I do?” Jesper had caught him by the shoulders before he could fall. “What do I do?” For a moment, Kaz’s dark brown eyes went wide, his brows pulled up, and to Jesper, he looked -- scared? And that was more horrifying than anything that had happened yet.

    “Get,” Kaz had breathed, “your hands – off – m--”

    And then he’d fainted.

    Jesper plans to stop taking these jobs once his debts are paid off. But, these days, life without Kaz Brekker is becoming harder to imagine.

    Summary

    [post c.k.]

    Now that everything's been said and done, Kaz has made a promise to himself. That when the day comes of Inej's return, he'll receive her with open arms.

    Alternatively... based on a tweet I saw that said "imagine while Inej is gone, Kaz practices touching people a little and so when she arrives after months, he's waiting and opens his arms nervously and she grinns before running into his arms." Yeah, picture that.

    Summary

    Inej realises that nobody has ever seen Kaz smile, and so sets out on a private mission to see him do so. Nina and Jesper are incredulous, but apparently all it takes is Kaz beating them in a lot of card games and Inej making accidental innuendos.

    Summary

    With Inej...there was a lot he couldn't control, a fact that he still wasn't comfortable coming to grips with. But he could control the shaking; he could focus on his breathing, and square his shoulders, and even out his footing so his weight wouldn't crush his leg too bad. He could walk to her and talk to her; touch her sleeve, maybe even slide down his fingers to the pulse in her wrist.

    Seven months she'd been gone. He could - he had to do this.

    Kaz faces feelings as Inej makes her return to Ketterdam.

    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

    Humans aren't exactly common. Not when Vampirism is an option, and joining a wolf pack provides a family, and faeries have soulmates. Jungkook should have known that he wouldn't be alone forever, without a coven, pack, or destined companion. He just didn't expect he'd wind up with all three.

    ***Disclaimer: The premise/lore of this work is heavily inspired by the amazing Arobeebee's 'It Might Just Come Back To Bite You.' Many of the details of this story are based on that work! I don't claim them! Please go read that fic, seriously it's awesome!***

    Summary

    Jungkook should never have agreed to accompany his best friend to a vampire exclusive masquerade ball.

    And Jungkook definitely should not have accepted the dances from the six powerful vampires who don’t seem fond of humans.
