Summary
“So, yes.” Kaz said. “It is a good idea to collect in the Barrel. Merchers don’t care about some puerile charity project, but the Barrel is built of survivors. It has a very long memory. Say some jumped-up kid pinches some kruge from them. When he comes back to his boss, who lost his girl and his Da and his best friend in the Queen’s Lady, and presents him with money that’s meant to be funding a memorial for them? Them, the people who never get a scrap of respect, who were left to die in the streets? That kid will be lucky if he escapes with both of his hands.”

or: on the 10 year anniversary of the queen's lady plague, the holy ghezen health institute aim to erect a memorial for the victims, but they struggle to find the funds. kaz is selfish in a selfless way.
and thanks to some sleuthing from wylan, jesper finds out who jordie is.

Summary
A Canon Divergence AU in which Kaz and Jordie both make it out of the Reaper's Barge alive, but Kaz still becomes Dirtyhands. Insights into Kaz's childhood and why he became Dirtyhands while Jordie doesn't, and how Kaz becomes close to the crows.
-One of the letters is from Jordie and Kaz stops and stares.
“What?” Inej asks him. She doesn’t look at the scribbled words on the back of the envelope until Kaz tilts it towards her to read, and when she does, her face morphs into one of pure confusion.
Kaz Fucking BREKKER or whatever your name is, if you don’t reply to this letter you are going to be in so much trouble. You’re in trouble regardless, but be prepared, you dumbass. I am so fucking mad at you. - Jordan Rietveld, Lola’s Inn, Lij, Southeastern Kerch.

Summary
"What does Nyi Aung want?"
The other three exhaled sharply, in mutual frustration. Sophie voiced it. "What he wants is to make Eliot suffer, isn't that clear by now, Nate?"
"No, that's what he's doing. What does he want?" Nate sat back and raised both eyebrows as though this were an academic question. It wasn't, he felt time slipping away as acutely as the others, but they needed to answer this, and they needed to answer it right. This was worth the time.
***
When James Sterling said he planned to deliver Eliot Spencer to Myanmar, it wasn't an idle threat, it was a plan he'd already executed. Now the team has to do what it can to get Eliot back.
