Summary
"Just our hands clasped so tight, waiting for the hint of a spark
If Heaven and Hell decide that they both are satisfied
Illuminate the "no"s on their vacancy signs
If there's no one beside you when your soul embarks
Then I'll follow you into the dark" - Death Cab for Cutie.
****
1929. Four years have passed since the end of Ruin and Rising. In that time, Nikolai and Alina have become Ravka's Tsar and Tsaritsa-Consort. Discontent with the rampant corruption and issues of Ravkan society, they've moved towards industrialization. However, in their hunger for modernization and competition with the larger nation states around them, looms the threat of loosing their souls to the grindstone. For war and societal changes looms large in the minds of many Europeans, and the darkness that waits just in the background is worse than even the Fold.
****
An AU of King of Scars that works around the plot for some great Nikolina moments and changes the ending, with some noticeable changes also along the way.Series

Summary
Genya Safin survived the Civil War. She found happiness. She found David.
'It was nice like this, just the two of them. They didn’t have to put on a mask, or pretend to be something they weren’t. Genya supposed that made her an awful Tailor – she dealt in false appearances. But maybe it made for good friendships.'
(Also, she found beautiful chaos with the other members of the Triumvirate and the rest of Nikolai's inner circle.)

Il a fallu cette formidable volonté de Bellatrix Lestrange de détruire son cousin pour que l’Arche de la Mort s’active et envoie Sirius Black dans l’endroit le plus dangereux d’un monde lointain -

Summary
Alina the orphan. The Nazyalenskys wanted a pawn to marry Vasily, not their treasure - Zoya.
Alina the lady. She certainly didn't know how to act as one.
Alina the princess. Alina the queen. It was to be her place next to Vasily. The higher she rose, the more she had to lose.
Alina the prisoner. Held captive in the palace that was once hers. Finally, she received a glass of hemlock, the order penned by her husband.
Alina awaiting execution. It took eight years for him to remember that she was still there.
Except that Alina wakes up, young again, armed with unfulfilled revenge and a second chance.
Inspired by a story called 锦绣未央 which details the inspiration for some of the plot points here. I reply to all comments, however slow I reply.

Summary
Jesper Fahey wore bright orange suits, hung his grief on his wrist and called it fashion. But Kuwei’s own hands were stained the same vibrant orange, the same shade of an angry sunset, the same shade of the flames he summoned, an Inferni already doomed to hellfire.
They stood in Black Veil, a tomb in a graveyard where Kuwei had never had the chance to bury his father, in a country that he’d never be able to call home, in a language he’d lied about learning and would learn to love and hate in equal measure.
Blessing, the Zemeni called their Grisha, and yet Kuwei saw how Jesper spoke like he wasn’t one of them, how Jesper might already know the Shu words for them: witch, blight, woe. They had grown up being taught to hide, after all – no one in Shu Han knew Kuwei was an Inferni. They had grown up being taught to lie.
There were orange stains on Kuwei’s hands, and they were worse than any red: he didn’t call them grief. He didn’t call them guilt.
He called them inheritance.
----------------------
Or, the one in defense of Kuwei Yul-Bo.

Summary
Baghra had had many children over the long centuries of her existence. But while she didn't bother caring for all of them as any child would deserve, Aleksander did not put up with that indifference. He had always kept an eye on his siblings and done everything in his power to keep them safe and help them reach their goals.
Or -- in which David is Aleksander's younger brother (because it makes more sense for David, the most prominent contemporary Durast, to be master Ilya Morozov's descendent, instead of Mal), and they had been there for each other for centuries.

A celebration is held for Alina Starkov, the Sun Summoner's, birthday. Only, it isn't really her birthday, and she'd much rather be spending the evening with a certain red-headed Tailor.

When the Fjerdans bombed the chapel, she had not been able to see him evacuate. Now, as her eyes scanned the rubble, she prayed to the Saints that the worse had not happened.
[This scene "takes place" during Rule of Wolves. If you have not yet read the Nikolai Duology, I highly suggest it!
All characters except for the few original characters belong to Leigh Bardugo, and the grisahverse she created.] -

Summary
Solstice is a time for Celebrations, gifts... and difficult relationships to evolve into something more.
From the Story:
"Captain Inej Ghafa had seen many things in her many travels at sea, and in the various ports they had docked, but as she passed the gates of the Grand Palace, she couldn’t help but being… taken aback by it all."
Edit: I found the time to edit this story that I hold dear to my heart. Now the story and its characters follow their canon stories.

Summary
Genya would never admit to anyone how much it ached to see Alina’s affections shown to anyone but her. She knew it was unrealistic to hope Alina would still love her the same way after she’d helped the Darkling. She wished she could say she was naive or that she was entranced by him and everything would revert to the way things had been. She would never admit she wanted Alina to marry Nikolai just to see her every day. Malyen was not a bad person but every part of Genya wished he was just to make her bitterness deep inside justified. When The Sun Summoner was pronounced dead, the title took Alina and Genya’s shattered heart along with it.
