    Summary

    Boyles always get what they want, and what Esma wants is to rip Timothy Brisby open and show him the many errors of his ways. And after that? She'll be damned if she returns to Dunwall with Brisby as the biggest scandal attached to her name. By the time she makes her way home, he'll be nothing but a footnote.

    (Alternate Summary: Esma Boyle and Billie Lurk! They fight commit crime!)

    Summary

    Jon grinds his teeth. That’s it. That’s all. He grinds his teeth, and he clenches his jaw, and sometimes, when he calls Tim into his office to ask him something, he’ll prop an elbow against his desk and lean to the side and dig his fingers into one of his temples and rub little circles there. Slowly, like he doesn’t even realize he’s doing it, and with a faint crease between his eyebrows. Tim’s libido, finally back to its pre-escitalopram levels, apparently finds this very interesting. Something about all that wound-up tension, maybe. Or the fact that, if Tim were a braver and stupider man, he could lean across Jon’s desk, cup his face, pull him forward, just a bit, and then gently, gently, work all that stress out of him with his tongue. Leave him with his eyes half-shut, lips parted, and watch as he sank down in that stupid high-backed chair all boneless and soft, breathing evenly for what’s probably the first time in weeks. Relaxed. Maybe up for getting blown.

    Jon's mouth hurts, and Tim can't keep his shut.

    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.
    or was.

    Summary

    “You know, when you start to think about it, it really is quite concerning that Kaz makes all our coffee,” Nina muses, but accepts a plateful of brownies just the same. “I mean, there’s nothing to say he doesn’t keep a bottle of arsenic beside the honey on the top shelf.”

    The inevitable coffeeshop AU, featuring hijinks, angst, and one deeply cynical barista.
