Six of Crows Fanfiction Masterlist

In honor of one year of writing in the Six of Crows fandom this February, I've decided to make a masterlist of my writing. 💕 Thank you for all of your encouragement this past year. Thanks to so many of you, I have been able to reconnect with something that brings me so much joy!

Sleep No More (51K, rating: T) - Modern AU. When Jan Van Eck's attempt to murder his own son fails, Wylan must learn to disappear into the the streets of the city that never sleeps. But Jesper Fahey doesn't plan on letting Wylan fade away quite so easily.

Sipping the Effervescent Sky (WIP, 7K words so far, rating: T) - Jesper Fahey is kidnapped en route to the venue on the day of his wedding.

On All Souls’ Day, thinking about how our dead are always with us. Even though I haven't been to church in years, I find myself humming “Just A Closer Walk With Thee” just like my grandma did. I see cardinals and chickadees and blue jays, and I feel my dad watching them too and smiling like he did at the birds at his backyard feeders. When my cousins and I are in the kitchen together, my mom and her sister are with us as we laugh and tease and work the way we learned from them growing up. Sometimes being haunted is the same as being loved.

I went ONE DAY without checking Tumblr, and I missed out on the second great Boop War.

When I walk into the mall and see Christmas decorations up the day after Halloween, I feel the same way Hamlet did when his mom married his annoying uncle so shortly after his father’s death.

Thrift, thrift, Horatio! the Halloween Mars Bars/Did coldly furnish forth the Christmas stockings

Now that it is spooky season, it is time to unveil my new AU:

Jesper is a mediator—a liasion between the living and the dead. But Wylan, the ghost haunting his bedroom, doesn't seem to need his help. Which is a relief, because Jesper is ready for a fresh start. But on the very first day at his new school, it becomes immediately apparent that getting that fresh start won't be easy as easy as it seems...

A.k.a. the Six of Crows x Mediator AU that has been haunting me for the better part of a year.

Reblogging in case you missed it. I've now posted the second chapter of my Ghost Wylan. (Your ghost is totally invited to hang out with my ghost(s). 👻)

kill them with kindness? wrong. collapse their dining room ceiling and fall onto their kitchen table while guests are having dinner and then attempt to blow up their house and then get on a boat and dramatically row into the night

Things cats were right about all along:

  1. Fuck staying hydrated by drinking enough water - eat! more! wet! food! (watermelon, cucumbers, SOUP!)
  2. Feels great to be really high up in your house where you can see the whole place (loft bed loft bed loft bed loft bed!)
  3. Express yourself as clearly as possible when people are touching you and you don't want them to.
  4. Optional, but you can also express yourself clearly when your people are not touching you and you want them to.
  5. Sometimes it's important to just go "hmm. actually, I don't care" and wander off.
  6. You don't have to be the strongest or toughest to defend yourself, it's enough to just be difficult enough to not be worth the trouble.
  7. Ghosts will eventually leave if you stare at them for long enough.
