    Summary

    Paradox: time is not linear. It moves in circles; everything that has happened will happen again. Inevitable yet somehow still improbable. So there is the ghost of the boy in this same bed, sobbing for the same reason in a different time.

    In which Wylan and Jesper learn to live in tandem after everything that's happened, Marya Hendriks relearns what it is to be with people you love, and Captain Inej Ghafa is a delight.

    Summary

    It’s good for circulation, Jesper would usually tease, but now he only turned and added: “Pay up, Kaz.”

    “You cheated,” Kaz accused.

    Wylan shrugged. “We can play again.”

    --------------

    Or, the one in which Wylan proves a point with chess, Jesper finds a blindfold, and Kaz visits a canal.

    Summary

    “You look really well,” Jesper says then, unable to help himself.

    “I know,” Wylan says plainly, with a small shrug. “It’s classic me. Came to college and got pretty.”

    Jesper laughs, although he’s not fully sure why. It just feels like such a Wylan response to give, whatever that could mean; a little self-deprecating, and also gesturing to the understanding—the knowledge—that they have of each other. Is it classic Wylan, to do this? Only Jesper would be able to tell. Only they could understand each other like this, even now.

    Jesper and Wylan aren’t friends in school, but they certainly aren’t strangers, no matter how much they try to act like it. In university, their lives continue to weave in and out of one another’s, pushing and pulling each other through their insecurities, pasts, and other relationships. But they always seem to come back to this fact—they can never be strangers.

    Summary

    His first thought, when the taste of bitter rust and crumpled petal hit him, was: I’ve drowned before.

    His second thought was: What am I doing here?

    -----------

    Or, a hanahaki AU where Wylan coughs up jurda blossoms, Jesper comes home from six years of Grisha training in Ravka, and the blood on Kaz’s gloves is definitely not from planning a coup.

    Summary

    It’s a relatively straightforward job: Jesper will pretend to be the handmaid to the withdrawn and sheltered Van Eck heir, and convince him to elope with another mercher. That’s all Jesper has to do on his end, and then the Crows will walk away with 45 million kruge. It’s a simple task.

    Or it would be, if not for the fact that there seems to be more to Wylan Van Eck than meets the eye, and Jesper can’t help but be intrigued—and maybe a bit charmed, too.
