I stood there thinking of the Namreen hunting me and the rewards they would post. Or maybe they’d found my master’s plaque next to the slave dead under the rockslide and no one was looking for me at all." — Thick as Thieves, chapter 10

This work was a gift fot @kareenvorbarra and @artino-c for the @hamiathesgiftexchange!

After reading @kareenvorbarra's What We Are Allowed, I have been thinking a lot about how Laela must have felt when she heard Kamet was supposed to have died in a rockslide...

The bracelet is the one Kamet buys for her on chapter 1 of Thick as Thieves; the design is based on the description on the fic mentioned above.

Summary: I thought that my master’s return to the imperial court would mean a return to normal for all of us, but it soon became clear that the gods had other plans.

The events of Thick as Thieves from Laela’s point of view.

Characters: Laela, Nahuseresh, Ornon, Original Characters

Pairings: Laela/OFC

Notes: This one...also took forever to write. In what will almost certainly be the penultimate chapter, the final phase of Ornon's plan for Laela and the girls is set in motion, and Laela says many goodbyes.

kamet finding that he cannot forgive laela for lying to him is such a great inversion of his characterization throughout the book. he obviously values mercy and forgiveness. we see this not just in the apology scene with costis, but in kamet’s final poem about ennikar and the witch of urkull, in his memory of nahuseresh forgiving him for dropping the statue, in his obvious affinity with shesmegah, goddess of mercy. he forgives (or at least admits to still liking) gen, in spite of himself. kamet forgives to a fault, and he doesn’t stop being this way even after he consciously reframes his feelings about nahuseresh: at the end of the book, he even scrutinizes his past behavior towards melheret, of all people, and regrets being rude when melheret didn’t deserve it.

but he can’t forgive laela, a person he cared for so much that gen-the-kitchen-boy could tell that she would risk everything to help him. it makes me think about pheris’ line about how people just don’t behave consistently. i wonder if kamet ever gives up the grudge, or if when they reunite years later he’s still angry with her on some level. my kingdom to have seen this conversation

Something lighthearted to celebrate Valentines Day with Samira and Laela from @kareenvorbarra's series "Are we leaving the city?", which I love to death 💕💕💕

How I hunger for touch How could you say that I love too much?

Desperately, he hoped they would not find her. He thought if he taught her to defend herself she would stand a chance in the outside world, beyond Golmore-- beyond his clutches.

Notes: This one took forever to write, and it's SUCH a relief to be done with it!!!

Laela grapples with the events of the previous chapter, but it's not long before her entire situation changes once again. Now instead of "my best friend died and it's a relief to some people I care about," we get "my best friend is alive and I can't be uncomplicatedly happy about it."
