The Astute Tourist's Guide to Ketterdam by terribletruths
Fandoms: Six of Crows Series - Leigh Bardugo
07 Jul 2021

Summary
A love song. Who the hell was listening to such whimsy, amongst the murderers and the thugs of the Barrel?
(You are, and you’re the cruelest of them all.)
Kaz scowled into the darkness of the room. It’s not like he had much choice, unless he opened the window and shot the singer.---
Most sensible people avoid the Barrel during major celebrations, out of a healthy sense of self-preservation and fondness for their limbs and wallets. Kaz, on the other hand, does not have the luxury of avoiding everyone else's good cheer. What he does have is a useless gang full of teenage idiots, an irritatingly persistent three-legged dog, a few memories he'd rather forget, and a time limit.

the queen's lady by 19burstraat (astardanced)
Fandoms: Six of Crows Series - Leigh Bardugo
10 May 2021
Tags
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
She picks up one of the chess pieces and fingers it fondly. “I must admit, I had a bit of a hot head in those days. I believe I told everyone that they probably couldn’t win if they played against me anyway - that the logic was much too complex for them. But if they did dare, I’d go easy on them.”
“And what happened,” Mildred rests an elbow on the table and leans closer, intrigued.
“Well, this girl I hardly knew, who never spoke except for in class, but who always got top marks, sat down across the table and informed me that so long as I explained the rules to her, there was no need to go easy.”
“Miss Hardbroom?!”
“That’s the one,” says Pippa grinning at the memory.****
Mildred suffers a heartbreaking loss, but as she grows up she discovers that family comes in all forms.
