    Summary

    “Sound it out,” the governess instructs. “What’s the first letter?”

    “I don’t know,” Wylan says again, frustration creeping into his voice. It’s not a proper answer. It’s not what she wants to hear, but he doesn’t know how else to explain it.

    He can’t attach sounds to the words, to the letters, if he doesn’t know what they are. Hot tears prick at the inside of his eyes and he tries to blink them away. Wylan can tell the governess is annoyed with him. She thinks he’s being uncooperative again. Lazy. But he’s not! He’s really trying, there’s just nothing to show for it.

    Summary

    “Happiness doesn’t exist in the Barrel, merchling,” Kaz said, running a gloved hand through his hair. “I’d wager more than half of the people you know have considered it at least once.”

    “Have you?”

    Summary

    “I’m— Ghezen, I’m freaking out,” Wylan said.

    “That’s alright, we’ll be fine.”

    “I know, I just don’t— I’ve never brought anyone with me and I thought it would be easier when I had you there because things always are then, but I just— Don’t want to put you through this.”

    “Wylan, you’re not putting me through anything. I made the active choice in being here, coming with you. If you have to go, I want to go with you.” In reality Jesper wanted to say, fuck this! If you don’t want to do this, let's get out of here, but he knew that Wylan wouldn’t agree with that. Couldn’t agree with that.

    Summary

    It was strange, Wylan realized, to have both of his parents back in the house. The last time they’d been together—if this counted as “together”—he had been eight years old, his mother had been well, and his father hadn’t been unresponsive in a coma with a medik standing over him.

    -

    or, Jan Van Eck is injured in an accident at Hellgate and about to die, and Wylan has to deal with it—and all the emotions that come with. Inej, Kaz, and Jesper aren't going to let him do it alone, and in no particular order, the kitchen gets painted, Wylan's half-sister runs away, and the Crows ponder guilt and forgiveness.

    Summary

    “Huh. You must’ve really fucked up in your past life to be stuck with this one by your side,” Jan laughed humorously. Jesper’s eyes narrowed.

    “I’m sorry, am I missing something here?”

    University AU - Despite Wylan's best efforts to protect his friends from his father, Jesper and Colm run into Wylan and Jan at a restaurant during Parents Weekend. What happens when Jesper realizes the true reason Wylan has never wanted him to meet his father?
