Summary
"She had only been with the Dregs for a few short weeks, and a good portion of that time had been spent learning how to fight or creating a mental map of the knotted tangle that passed for a city. In terms of assignments, Inej was mostly sent out on run of the mill intelligence missions or served as a lookout for larger players. This was different, and she got the feeling tonight was some sort of test, the impossible conditions outside posing her first real obstacle, but also her first real opportunity to prove herself. With a burst of shame, Inej realised she was failing."

Summary
An anthology of stand-alone Kanej fics and ficlets.
Latest ficlet—chapter 8
a skip in perceptionInej spends an evening watching Kaz perform card tricks.
Excerpt: After fumbling with the lock and wiggling the pins for much longer than she would have liked, Inej shoves the window open, finally earning her reprieve from the rain. The attic is cold but blissfully dry.
But the sight she’s greeted with takes her breath away faster than the frigid weather. Kaz is seated at his desk with his shirtsleeves pushed up and hands bare. He shuffles a deck of cards and the way they move between his long, slender fingers is reminiscent of wind in tall grass.

Summary
Inej settles on the windowsill, basking in the sunlight, and pulls the flowers from her pocket to admire how they almost glow. She raises one to her nose. It doesn’t have a smell besides that of something fresh and green. Something new and wild.

Inej and flowers, through the years.

Summary
I have decided to challenge myself to write a little bit each day of August, and so I made some prompts to keep me going, inspired by Taylor Swift's songs august (because it's August, yay!) and betty, because those two songs go together in my mind, even more so than cardigan does.
I'll be aiming for a balance of sweet and angst, let's see how that goes :)

Summary
Kaz swallowed, observing the unmistakable enthusiasm that had illuminated her eyes. She seemed brighter, somehow, like her damned saints had reached down from wherever they resided and set her alight. For a moment Kaz had the sudden, irrational fear that the security guard upstairs would catch sight of the strange rush of sunlight arising from the otherwise darkened floor and return to investigate.

Summary
Inej held the long rope tightly in her hands as she was lowered down into the dark storage building built into the Lieke mansion, from the huge skylight in the middle of the round roof. The rope was tied securely around her waist, and she held it surely, one hand above her head and the other just below her legs, as she plunged down into darkness.

Summary
“No!” Kaz hissed frantically. “They’re after me.”
The girl looked at him skeptically. “Why?”
The one-word question lingered in the air as Kaz decided his lie.
“Well, I played a tiny, harmless prank on them earlier. Looks like they don’t know how to take a joke.” He then attempted to smile sheepishly, and although he was confident it looked convincing, the girl didn’t seem impressed.
“Prank,” the girl said carefully, testing out the unfamiliar word. Still, she looked over at his greasy self-cut hair and filthy clothes, and Kaz felt as though she saw through his lies.
OR
What if Kaz and Inej met before? Kaz steals a watch, they play some carnival games, and Inej receives her first knife.
(Can be read as a standalone but it makes more sense if you read the first part)

Summary
All demons were stronger underground.
The people of Ketterdam didn’t know why, and they didn’t need to. They just kept the entrances Onder locked up and well guarded, at least in the good part of town, and stayed wary of what might emerge from the canals. Every once in a while—after a plague or a bad fire; a bad fall for the stock market (it was Kerch, after all); a spate of strange killings—the Merchant Council would turn their attention yet again to the city’s “demon problem” and send their priests and their soldiers into the tunnels. But most of the time, Ketterdam left their monsters be. After all (so they thought), the demons stayed below—or if they didn’t, then in the worse parts of the Barrel, where the staadwatch didn’t patrol and the thrill-seekers didn’t wander, and this amounted to much the same thing. Most of the time, the rich folks just prayed to Ghezen and Sankta Margaretha for protection, locked their doors (for what good that did them), and went about their own business. Feeling a little less evil for their own human blood. Feeling certain their neighbors shared it.
They thought they were safe.
Kaz let them. For now. -

Summary
For as long as Wylan could remember he had always understood that the world was made up of more than most could comprehend.
It was an inkling in the corners of his mind, a distant thought that he hadn’t questioned in the slightest. Everything — everyone — was made up of countless atoms and elements. That was an axiom, a fundamental truth.
OR
Wylan is Grisha and he isn’t sure if that’s a bad thing or not.
