claws for teeth, vengeance for a heart [ kaz brekker x fem!oc ] [ cover by @summxrtears ] 2021

A wandering flautist trying to buy his way out of the city. A lost sharpshooter trying to find his place in the world. When false information is shared and word spreads that Jesper is responsible for leaking confidential information on the dregs, Kaz Brekker has no choice but to disband Jesper from their gang. Now, with Brekker's crew at their most vulnerable, every gang in the city has turned on him. While Jesper wanders the slums of the barrel with new allies and a handful of enemies, his old friends Kaz Brekker and Inej Ghafa are fighting for their lives. Their crew is slowly turning against them, realising the profit they could make from their downfall. With the new allies he's acquired, will Jesper be able to put together a crew strong enough to protect Kaz and Inej against their broken city and earn back their trust? As each party plots their revenge, secrets are unburied, so cruel they shake even Kaz himself. Will this newfound crew be able to take back what they own and silence their foes together, or will they turn on each other in the chaos? If there's one thing Jesper has learned during his time in the barrel, it's that if you can't beat the odds, you change the game.

KETTERDAM: a city of masks and markets, where truth is a rarer commodity than kruge. On West Stave, she's Listje De Graaf, the glittering darling of the stage, beloved by merchants and thieves alike. In the Barrel, she's Sol Vale, the Wildcard---con artist, forger, actress, and liar of legendary renown. She's made a life out of playing parts, of smiling sweetly while she robs you blind. But when Kaz Brekker, the infamous Dirtyhands of the Dregs, comes knocking with an impossible offer---a job promising fortune, danger, and the kind of glory no mask can hide---Sol finds herself tempted. The Ice Court. Thirty million kruge. A team of criminals who'd sooner kill each other than cooperate. It's madness. It's suicide. It's the perfect stage. A convict with a thirst for revenge A sharpshooter who can't walk away from a wager A runaway with a privileged past A spy known as the Wraith A Heartrender using her magic to survive the slums A thief with a gift for unlikely escapes A con artist who can play any part The only thing more dangerous than the job is the company she's keeping-and they might just destroy each other before they save anyone else.

In a cold and rainy city, comes the story of two unlikely individuals. A criminal prodigy and a Grisha. The boy, known more commonly by the alias he shared with his brother, together they were the "bastards of the barrel." His brother was Dirtyhands, he was the Strategist. She was Grisha. It was complicated to be a Grisha. Some wanted them dead, others wanted their service, more still wanted them for experiments, and some others revered them. Of all those that she could have ended up with, she was instead bound to a lifetime of debt. The story of Kasper Brekker and Lanying Kir-Zhengyi. ╭┈◦•◦❥•◦ "Together, until the end of time. That is how long I would stay with you, Kasper Brekker." - Lanying Kir-Zhengyi

IN PROCESS OF BEING WRITTEN A brand new type of Grisha. A prison island full of the worst criminals. This is a Six of Crows fanfic following the events of Crooked Kingdom, after Matthias's ...demise... The crows have heard news of a new type of Grisha with the abilities to bring people back from the dead... the problem is though, that this Grisha is supposedly on a prison island - that shouldn't exist - surrounded by deadly and dangerous criminals. Never the less, they set out in search of the prison, only to come face to face with a problem that could prove worse that their friend's death. Warnings: - This piece may contain violence and coarse language (we'll see how I feel as I go). - I haven't made a plan for this, I'm just writing as often as possible and hoping for the best, so good luck, I guess.

"and as the swarm it calls we lay in the foundations," it's not the money that brings nastya rastputina on the job that entails certain death, that's for sure. ...ok, it also might be the money. "yes it comforts me much more- to lay in the foundations of decay!" [shadow and bone s1- ] [-ascendants 2023 ]

Summary: You've been a part of Kaz Brekker's life for a long time. Some people said it was before the cripple, before the gloves. Maybe they were right, but it didn't change the fact that you'd disappeared for 6 years of his life. You weren't there, and that meant you couldn't be let back in....right? Pairing: Kaz Brekker x Tidemaker!reader Warnings: Angst, violence, kaz's touch aversion, but a lot of fluff towards the end.

Seven dangerous outcasts. One impossible heist.

A work in progress, I hope you think it's funny.

[fan art not mine, found on pinterest] hello people :) this isn't my first book, though it is on this account ! writing may not be the best, characters may act ooc sometimes, i've only just started crooked kingdom yesterday :( i may be up for requests, if anyone would like to ask for some, though i can't guarantee i'll certainly do them, i'm quite busy with school work at the moment, as well as my several other hobbies and hyperfixations 0.0 i hope you enjoy reading! trigger warnings will be listened at the start !!

Random Six of Crows content. Mostly oneshots. TW: swearing, trauma. If you haven't read Six of Crows and Crooked Kingdom/are triggered by their content, don't read this

No mourners, no funerals. It passed for good luck. As if every criminal didn't know its true meaning, that they were nothing but barrel rats crawling through the gutter. They said it, as if they didn't know that one day, they would die and the world would not bat a lash. Not a single person would care, mourn or cry. The barrel rats were an infestation, a mass of scrabbling bodies all fighting to survive. They knew better then to let their hopes be high, or their hearts be as soft as their hide. No mourners, no funerals. Criminals have an interesting sense of humor, don't you think, dear readers? Cover and description by @Night_Shadowedcat
