Summary
Alina fails to hide her powers when the Grisha examiners visit.
'I would have gone to the Little Palace and been spoiled and pampered. I would have dined off golden plates, and I never would have struggled to use my power. It would have been like breathing, the way it always should have been. And in time, I would have forgotten Keramzin.'

Summary
He kisses her, and it is like an answer to a question she had not known she was asking.
With her, he is soft, and beneath the heavy, dark exterior she sees him — he is lonely, perhaps just as lonely as she is. In each other, they have found answers to questions Alina did not realize she was asking, questions that he has been ruminating on all along.
Her hands slide into his hair, feeling the soft strands beneath her fingers as he tugs her closer, cups her jaw and kisses her as though he’ll never get the chance again. Nothing about this kiss is safe, Alina knows — not just because it’s him, but because of the way he does it, the way he tugs her into his body until she is pressed along the length of him, the way she knows that he intends never to let her go.
--
How the Winter Fete scene should have gone, if they weren't interrupted. I won’t ever forgive Netflix for taking that away from us. There are so many different iterations of this scene in fic but I wanted to try my hand at writing in-universe, so please enjoy my take!Bookmarked by QueenMeabha

Summary
The Darkling is losing the battle to create a safe haven for his Grisha, when he stumbles upon Alina Starkov, a seemingly ordinary child. Yet he feels connected to her in a way that is inexplicable. Can he overcome himself to care for her, a mere otkazat’sya mortal?
*Note* The Darkling meets Alina when she is a child, and the story spends a lot of time developing their relationship before she is discovered as a Sun Summoner. It’s a labor of love, and a slow burn, but if you choose to join this journey, there will be sweet and beautiful Darklina at the end of it all 🖤
