    Summary

    For once, Jesper has gotten lucky with cards. If you can call it lucky to win an unfairly quick-witted indenture that Pekka Rollins very much does not want to lose. Wylan, meanwhile, is just looking for the least bad situation he can hope for in the Barrel, which he expects is still quite, quite bad.

    Or: the one where Jesper wins Wylan in a card game

    Summary

    In Ketterdam, marriages are just another contract, albeit a bit more permanent. They were a good way to make alliances, even between people who wouldn’t ordinarily be seen together. Which is how Wylan Van Eck ends up being married off to Jesper Fahey, in order to solidify the connections between Kaz Brekker’s Dregs and Jan Van Eck’s mercher empire. The only problem? Wylan had no say in any of this, and he enters this marriage contract expecting the worst. But Jesper isn’t as ruthless as his father warned, and even Dirtyhands might have emotions.

    Summary

    Wylan Van Eck signs up as a math tutor for a simple reason: to escape his oppressive home for an extra hour each day. Anything is better than staying there, even dealing with unrequited feelings for a student who hates him.

    Jesper Fahey, who would rather have a good time than study, sees no need for a tutor--especially not a rich brat who panics at the slightest hint of flirtation.

    But when Jesper reluctantly agrees to endure two weeks of tutoring, neither of them is prepared for how it will change their lives.

    Summary

    Kaz Brekker is the Sun Summoner. He is not a saint. He is a Crow and he is not alone. Ravka has been warned. In this calamity of bossing the Fold, extorting Ravkan royalty and angering the governments of every known nation in the world you will find the following:
    Darklings getting shot!
    Jesper Fahey's school of Durast sharpshooting! (unrelated)
    Certain Second Army Generals desperately wishing for nice, innocent teenage girls to gaslight. Instead dealing with corrupt teenage boys who want their money. Now!
    Ravka's first plaid kefta (absolutely Jesper's fault)
    Kaz Brekker's school of resource management (yes, the First Army do need bulletproof keftas!)
    Regicide (Hello Genya! Inej approves!)
    Sankta Inej, the Holy Wraith!
    Wylan the first Otkazak'sya Fabrikator in history!
    Genuine Sun Saint canes available for the low, low price of...
    Everyone, everywhere wanting Kaz dead. And all at once!
    Revolution. Multiple. Large and Small.
    Jan Van Eck. Yes, really.
    Potentially one unlucky Druskelle having a very strange time in the name of love.

    Summary

    Maybe it was stupid of Wylan. An impulsive decision. But he didn’t care. Something snapped in his mind that instant. He grabbed a flash bomb out from his bag and ran past Kaz, faintly hearing the man call out for him. Or was that Jesper’s voice? Wylan didn’t have time to think as the squaller got closer and closer to Inej and he was running out of time. “Get down!” He yelled out, praying to Ghezen that Inej would react fast enough. Wylan threw the bomb in their direction and shut his eyes in hopes the effect wouldn’t be as blinding. It went off with a loud boom immediately knocking everyone off their feet.

    Or, What if Wylan gets captured instead of Inej?

    Summary

    Above Wylan’s bony left ankle, metal gleams: a heavy iron manacle, welded to a long chain of links that snake behind him, clattering on the floor as he moves.

    Jesper watches it, mouth open as everything he’d assumed shatters and comes back together in a new shape. “You’re a prisoner!” he blurts out.

    Wylan twists sharply to look at him, face creased in a familiar aggravated scowl. “Are you an idiot?” he demands. “The locked door wasn’t a clue?”

    There are new weapons appearing in the Barrel. Kaz sends Jesper undercover to find out where they’re coming from. Jesper finds something else entirely.

    Summary

    A very chaotic Inej, Nina and Jesper go to Ketterdam University. Things start to get interesting when Nina catches the eye of a cute jock in psych class, a very shy and sweet Wylan stumbles into their friend group, and a past associate of Inej's makes more and more appearances.

    Summary

    “Nice shooting,” he says. He’s a good foot taller than Wylan, dressed in a plaid suit and a brown waistcoat only half buttoned. The tie is so loose and low it hardly qualifies as a tie, and his top hat sits at a jaunty angle, matching the crooked smile crinkling his brown eyes.
    “T-thank you.”
    “You ever shot before?”
    “Skeet,” he explains. “My father and I often play at the range in Belednt.”

    Summary

    There is no happily ever after for the Crows. It's not like anyone--least of all Kaz Brekker--expected anything different, but that's different than saying that reality is easy to live with.

    Or a largely Kaz-centric post-CK series. Referred to as the fightingverse for short.

    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

    "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

    “And have you made this entire call without once vexing or offending poor Miss Ghafa?”
    Captain Rietveld looked coolly at him. Inej bent her head over her sewing to hide her smiling, since she was not sure she would not laugh outright. She had not thought that Wylan would deliberately provoke the Captain, but perhaps his deference to his father did not reach anyone else.
    “I am sure that is not for me to decide,” said the Captain, “But I own I have been perfectly well behaved.”
    “Does he lie, Miss Ghafa?”
    “No— he has been quite tolerable company,” said Inej. “If not quite a perfect gentleman.”
    “You wound me, Miss Ghafa.”
    “I suspect I do not, Captain.”

    Summary

    Once, Kaz had said that Wylan thought like a lockpick. Wrong. Wylan thought like a clock, ticking, ticking, counting down the seconds he had left to live.

    Breathe, he told himself, told Jesper, as the world spun and the canal waters swallowed him under: six minutes. He could survive without oxygen for six minutes.

    Summary

    Wylan Van Eck is the veritable prince of Kerch - an influencer famous thanks to his father's wealth and political status, beloved by many, derided by some, and truly known by very few. Behind closed doors, everything he does is designed to make himself an asset to the Van Eck empire, to make himself something his father might not want but definitely needs to keep around.

    Jesper is an up-and-coming actor, not making a splash but well on his way to making ripples, but most of the fortune he should be making is going towards paying off an astronomical amount of gambling debt. After Jan Van Eck makes some questionable comments that are thrown about in the press, his PR team devise a wildly problematic ploy that might just be the answer to Jesper's problems. Six dates over six months, with the boy Jesper grew up seeing lit up on his phone screen. What could go wrong?

    Thanks T-Swift for giving me the title in the nick of time.
