Alternate Universe - Regency Six Of Crows fanfiction recommendations

part of Lunar's soc fanficiton rec series

-------------------------------✩₊˚.⋆☾⋆⁺₊✧----------------------------------

p.s. a few fics haven't been updated in a while but I'm recommending them because they are all still beautiful stories and worth the read

when existence or when hope is gone by @19burstraat

Wordcount: 27,573 Chapters: 1/1

Characters: Kaz Brekker, Inej Ghafa, Nina Zenik, Matthias Helvar, Jesper Fahey, Wylan Van Eck, Jan Van Eck, Alys Van Eck, Inej Ghafa's Mother, Inej Ghafa's Father

Tags: Alternate Universe - Regency, Alternate Universe - Historical, Implied/Referenced Sexual Assault, Napoleonic Wars, Jordie's dead again sorry poppet. Matthias isn't though!, Minor Matthias Helvar/Nina Zenik, Minor Jesper Fahey/Wylan Van Eck, Love Letters, maybe kaz should be a regency gent full time. they all wear gloves and are all repressed, Implied/Referenced Abuse, Written In the style of Jane Austen, (sort of), (I tried), kanej-typical intense pining

Author's summary/notes: “And have you made this entire call without once vexing or offending poor Miss Ghafa?” Captain Rietveld looked coolly at him. Inej bent her head over her sewing to hide her smiling, since she was not sure she would not laugh outright. She had not thought that Wylan would deliberately provoke the Captain, but perhaps his deference to his father did not reach anyone else. “I am sure that is not for me to decide,” said the Captain, “But I own I have been perfectly well behaved.” “Does he lie, Miss Ghafa?” “No— he has been quite tolerable company,” said Inej. “If not quite a perfect gentleman.” “You wound me, Miss Ghafa.” “I suspect I do not, Captain.” (A SOC Jane Austen/Regency AU) My summary/notes: This fic is so cute, I loved seeing the Inej and Nina's friendship in regency au, it was so sweet. Reading kanej interact with Austen coded manners was just so fun and fit them so well. If you love Jane Austen and Inej you will love this fic. The other crows relationships are in this fic and its so adorable.

A Hair's Breadth by QHQ

Wordcount: 60,833 Chapters: 46/? (hasn't been updated in a year and half)

Characters: Kaz Brekker, Inej Ghafa, Jesper Fahey, Nina Zenik, Matthias Helvar, Wylan Van Eck, Anika, Rotty, Alby Rollins, Pekka Rollins

Tags: Alternate Universe - Regency, regency au, Slow Burn, Marriage of Convenience, blend of the grishaverse and regency england, Basically, Touch Aversion, Past Sexual Abuse, Everyone Has Issues, Haphephobia, Minor Sexual Content, Canon-Typical Violence, Lack of Communication, Fake Marriage, Fake/Pretend Relationship, everyone is a badass

Author's summary/notes: Kaz Brekker has torn Pekka Rollins down. Brick by brick - just like he'd promised. Having wiggled himself into a position to inherit all of Rollins' estate, he finds himself at court, playing the same old tricks on fatter pigeons. Inej Ghafa is desperate. Lady Nina is to be married soon, and when that happens she will be returned to Tante Heleen and the Menagerie. Her only hope is to convince the newest noble at court - the dangerous Lord Brekker - to buy out her indenture. Needless to say: nothing goes as planned for either of them. My summary/notes: I have to warn you that this fic incomplete but its definitely still worth the read. QHQ is such a good Kanej writer I recommend their other fics. This fic has a good chunk of angst as its a marriage of convience.. but there are so sweet moments. They wrotes Inej's worries and experience of what its like to be a woman in regency era fit, and stayed honest to her character.

in another life by drisana

Wordcount: 55,009 Chapters: 9/20 (hasn't been updated in a year)

Characters: Kaz Brekker, Inej Ghafa, Nina Zenik, Jesper Fahey, Tante Heleen, Inej Ghafa's Mother, Inej Ghafa's Father, Kaz Brekker's Father, Kaz Brekker's Mother, Zoya Nazyalensky, Nikolai Lanstov, Genya Safin

Tags: Alternate Universe - Regency, Arranged Marriage, Marriage of Convenience, Married kanej learning to love each other, kaz arranges a marriage, so inej can work for the dregs, Marriage, Wedding, Scandal, Grishaverse racism, Abandonment, Major Character Injury, Separation, Reunions, Threats, Ravka being broke as usual, Complicated Relationships, Unreliable Narrator, so many creative liberties taken sorry i havent read soc in ages

Author's summary/notes: "What did you think of the Suli girl, then, oh Saint of great virtue?” Inej hears a match strike, then a drag of a cigarette before Brekker answers, “As lovely as she is smart. And smart enough to be utterly terrified of me.” Jesper wiggles his eyebrows, “Lovely enough to tempt you?” Brekker hesitates, and Inej sees Nina grin, a hand over her mouth and the other one gripping Inej like a lifeline. He leans back against the tree, dark hair disrupting his handsome features, and lets out a long exhale, “Yes.” My summary/notes: Stays true to Inej's canon background so be prepared for flashbacks, we do get to see her heal and grow. I'm not sure how much to say without spoiling but we have Kanej taking down *horrible* people together. A lot of Nina and Jesper appearances, especially Nina's friendship with Inej and Jesper's friendship with Kaz, we love them <3.

A Gentleman in Possession of a Good Fortune...Has No Need for a Wife by aplaceforallmyshipstoanchor @a-true-janian-reply

Wordcount: 29,892 Chapters: 8/12 (hasn't been updated in a few months)

Characters: Inej Ghafa, Kaz Brekker, Nina Zenik, Zoya Nazyalensky, Matthias Helvar, Jesper Fahey, Wylan Van Eck, Original Characters, Per Haskell, Pekka Rollins (mentioned), The Ghafas

Tags: Uneasy Allies, Marriage of Convenience, Heists, friends - Freeform, romantic content, But first a lot of buildup because we know these two, Alternate Universe - Regency, Regency-lite, Shenangians, Societal rules, Violence, Multi Chapter, What if the Crows were in Regency England and yet still got up to crime, More tags to follow, Panic Attacks

Author's summary/notes: The Ghafas travel to London to strengthen Mr. Ghafa's ties with English trade. Per Haskell's business is known as a well-established , if old fashioned, institution and enters into business with Mr. Ghafa. His apprentice Mr. Brekker, an austere young man, is secretly running the business and encounters the Ghafas at a ball. When Inej overhears vital information about an attack on Haskell's warehouse from a local gang she goes to Mr. Brekker for help. When Mr. Brekker needs her help again, the two orchestrate a courtship as a cover for their increasingly dangerous adventures. How far will the charade go? And how many times will Mr. Brekker try to convince himself their partnership is merely an investment for the future? My summary/notes: I adored reading Kanej develop in this fic, we get to see them grow from strangers to friends to...... and Mama + Papa Ghafa are in this fic, I love them so much. It was so interesting reading the way they adapted canon to fit and it works really well. One thing I loved was Inej being vigilante and being the Wraith in regency era. The writing is incredible

[lilisouless]

My back hurts cause i wrote the end of phase one pretty much in a row, so if you don't mind i´ll do a self service post (thanks for the three people that will vote)

note 6, examples: Kaz asking Alina if she is a good or a bad witch, Mila singing a part of "somewhere under the rainbow"

note 7 examples:

The darkling: you and i are going to change the...Alina? (Alina ran away before he could finish)

Kaz: my mother is Storybro-

Zoya: Oh shut up!

The statue of the happy prince briefly craking when Ulla says "impossible near it"

note 8: singing loudly despite Jan asking silently not to do it and later, in a catfight, clapping because she thinks is a play while Jan looks at her with hopeless written on his face

Note 9 examples: Being revealed as one of the few citizens that doesn´t treat Ulla like an outsider and taking care of a passed out drunk Zoya

[allcolorsinone]

I envy Ayan Mukharjee, Zoya Akhtar and Imtiaz Ali, how do they come up with stories like Yeh Jawani hai Deewani, ZNMD and Tamasha??

I want that type of creativity and ye characters jaisi life, travel karna ye to kabhi nahi milne wala

I feel like I've already lost my major years in life🥲

A Comprehensive Timeline for NWAACO

This timeline will cover pretty much everything that’s happened in canon so far and absolutely will not line up with canon Grishaverse ages/age differences/birthdays. There shouldn’t be any spoilers for people who’ve read everything, but I’ll still put it under a cut just in case. Typical NWAACO warnings apply. Enjoy! 

35 ADD (After Dark Days): Per Haskell (District 6) wins the Hunger Games at age 18

37 ADD: Seeder Norris (District 11) wins the Hunger Games at age 18

42 ADD: Jarl Brum (District 2) wins the Hunger Games at age 18

July 47 ADD: Magnus Opjer (District 4) wins the Hunger Games at age 18

October 47 ADD: Zoya Nazyalensky is born 

April 49 ADD: Nikolai Lantsov is born 

There are only two times of year where Nikolai can be concieved and so only two possible birth months for him. I went with a July conception/April birthday because he felt like a spring baby

yes this means Nikolai is almost two years younger than Zoya when I think he is her age/maybe slightly older in Grishaverse canon. Look...it’s just not going to line up. Sorry

July 49 ADD: David Kostyk is born

But Erin, you say, David is the Victor of the 68th Games! He’d be 19 then, he would be too old!

To which I say--good catch! David’s birthday is actually in late July; as we’ll see in the David one shot, he turned 19 in the Arena. It was a very terrible birthday

March 50 ADD: Genya Safin is born

January 53 ADD: Leoni Hill is born

February 53 ADD: Jordie Rietveld is born

June 53 ADD: Alys Meijer is born

no, I didn’t intend for all the older sibling characters to be the same age but it ended out working out that way so I ran with it. It’s an intentional parallel now

July 53 ADD: Genna Pieters (District 6) wins the Hunger Games at age 17

55 ADD: Jan Van Eck becomes president, Aditi Hilli and Colm Fahey marry

yes, the age gap between Van Eck and Alys is really gross. Trust me, I know

January 56 ADD: Matthias Helvar is born

September 56 ADD: Nina Zenik is born

November 56 ADD: Kaz Brekker is born, Lara Rietveld dies

March 57 ADD: Hanne Brum is born

April 57 ADD: Jesper Fahey is born

June 57 ADD: Inej Ghafa is born

May 58 ADD: Wylan Van Eck is born

60 ADD: Paul and Alyssa Zenik die, Nina Zenik is left orphaned

May 63 ADD: Sara Helvar is born

July 64 ADD: Zoya Nazyalensky (District 8) wins the Hunger Games at age 16; Dominik Vertov (District 2) dies

March 66 ADD: Tomas Brekker dies

April 66 ADD: Marya Hendriks dies; Jordie Rietveld dies

I had to steal the idea from @oneofthewednesdays that Marya and Jordie ‘died’ around the same time 

March 67 ADD: Stefan and Katrin Helvar die; Matthias and Sara Helvar are orphaned 

July 67 ADD: Enobaria Robinson (District 2) wins the Games at age 18

July 68 ADD: David Kostyk (District 8) wins the Hunger Games at age 19; Aditi Hilli is executed

70 ADD: Nikolai Lantsov is recruited to the rebel movement

July 71 ADD: The events of One for Sorrow take place

July-December 72 ADD: The events of Bright Morning Stars take place

July 73 ADD: The events of Sometimes I Wish for Falling take place

July 74 ADD: The events of Gold Rush take place
