    Summary

    “This is the best Christmas I’ve had in years.” Lockwood tells her.

    “Me too.” She says.

    “I’m glad I got to spend it with you.” He adds. “And George and Flo, of course.”

    “Of course.” Lucy agrees, although she feels toasty at the thought that he listed her first. “I’m glad I was here for it. At Lockwood and Co, I mean.”

    “With family.” Lockwood corrects and the toasty feeling rises to a marshmallow-melting fire in her stomach.

     

    or: Christmas at 35 Portland Row, before, during and after The Black Winter.

    Summary

    Kaz squints at her. “Are you a student, Inej?”

    And, oh, no.

    Her name sounds exactly right in his rock salt rasp. It spells trouble. She shakes it off and tries to focus on answering the question. She supposes that in a different world she could be a student. She would live in a cozy apartment with some other girls, and this would just be a part-time job, so she would have time to attend lectures and write papers and go on dates.

    But Inej does not live in that world. She lives in this one.

    Summary

    “Look,” Nina says. Inej has startled her badly enough that she’s made a mess of her eyeliner – the wing on her right eye careens wildly to one side.

     

    “I’m all for reclaiming your sexuality. Seriously. Two thumbs up from me. But, honestly, Inej, does it have to be with the most emotionally unavailable man you know?”

     

    “Well, who would you suggest?”

     

    Nina’s eyes bulge. “Oh, I don’t know, literally anyone with a pulse and a conscience?”

     

    “Kaz has –

     

    “We don’t know that,” Nina says sternly.

    Summary

    Jesper’s jaw tightened. He couldn’t remember the last time he had felt this kind of anger - a deep burning that boiled up inside of him, the heat blistering in his veins as he stood there, keeping his expression blank.

    “She had special powers,” one man said, looking up at the statue.

    Jesper had to keep his voice even as he answered, ignoring Nina’s rising curiosity beside him. “Did she?”

    The man nodded sagely. “She must have. Perhaps she saw the future or something. I mean, she had to know Sankta Leoni would be a hero. Why else would she willingly die and leave her own child behind?”

    Jesper swore to every god this world had to offer if he ever saw Leoni Hilli’s face, he would hold her at gunpoint until she took these ridiculous statues down herself.

    Or

    Leoni Hilli is now considered a saint. This makes Jesper’s life considerably more complicated as he brings the Crows along to visit his father.

    Summary

    Inej knows that soulmates share pain. She has always known it; she has always thought herself prepared.

    It doesn’t take long for her to realize that life—and love—are far more painful than she could have possibly known.

    --

    Or, the Kanej soulmates au, where soulmates can feel one another's pain.
