Where are all the Six of Crows modern au? With Kaz being an old grumpy man that does not know how to use a computer to save his life, because he trust paper more and Jesper mokes him to no end while Wylan has to go three times a week to his office to fix said computer because he always block it. WHERE? I NEED THEM TO SURVIVE

Stupid six of crows au where instead of the ice court it’s a water park and instead of gauging their timing by the elder clock they time it by the sound of the wave machine.

hmmm I know we can surmise that kaz & jordie were the iphigenia of the series, in that, whether it's fair or not, they had to be sacrificed for the benefit of everyone else. jordie had to die and kaz had to suffer it and live with it, because if kaz had lain down and died on the barge, it would have had a crazy knock-on effect. inej likely would never have escaped the menagerie, or matthias from hellgate, jesper would probably have fallen foul of debtors or gangs some way or another (he gets at least one beating from enforcers), nina would have been caught up w the dime lions trying to get matthias out of hellgate, and there's even some more tangential ones, like kuwei probably dying at the ice court and marya being stuck at saint hilde.... but I wonder what would have happened to wylan.
kaz had him under dregs protection, so he never suffered the way he did ("kaz is your luck, merchling."); no beatings, etc. without that... well, it's tempting to think that wylan would have just been killed some way or another. and yeah, maybe, but miggson and prior couldn't get him, could they? wylan has that scary glimmer of the biting-animal, kaz-style survivalist in him, and he had a goal; amass enough money to get the hell out of ketterdam and start anew. but how far would wylan have gone to get that money? van eck's letters pushed him into the arms of dregs munitions building. without the perpetual intervention of kaz-- protection, constant jobs even when there were better people for it, good pay-- how quickly would wylan have turned into someone more like kaz? he has a core of decency, but he gets the privilege of keeping that, because kaz helps him to. alone, would he have surrendered it, or been forced to surrender it, just for a chance to survive? I don't think he would have ever willingly given up. it's not an accident that kaz and wylan's first days in ketterdam are so closely paralleled, or that they have a set of similar skills/traits; it's explicitly said that wylan would also be able to count cards and control decks like kaz can, if he wanted to. and after he finds out about his mother, wylan's comforted by the idea of retribution for van eck, that kaz could destroy his father's life. they're a little bit too similar. but kaz is there to take the moral fall, for the most part; all wylan has to do is help him. but without kaz... well. that's another story, isn't it?

Jesper: thanks Saints, Nina, you are free, can you watch my presentation “Why Wylan should marry me”?
Nina being actually busy: I am not fr….
Jesper: It is only few slides long!
*125 slides later*
Jesper: … and this is why Wylan should marry me, thank you for your attention and thanks in advance for your questions.
Nina: ok, I have questions. Why this presentation even exists? And do you even notice that Wylan was here all this time? If it is your idea of how to propose, we need to have a serious conversation, Jesper Llewellyn.
Wylan who was watching this presentation with a bunch of snacks: oh, no, I am already saw this presentation 10 times, and I already made us an appointment at the Church of Barter. Actually, I proposed. But he isn’t trying to convince me, he made this to convince Kaz to give us a blessing.
Nina: And…
Wylan: Don’t ask me why he thinks that we need blessing of Kaz Brekker, I don’t know. We already wrote a letter to my father in Hellgate and he sent us back 15 pages of curses, I think this is better than any blessing.
Jesper: I tried to talk with Kaz about it and said that I know that Wylan is too good for me, and he said “oh, perfect, I don’t need to talk with you” and closed a door in my face!
Nina: It is really explaining why so much slides are about investments and that slide with photo of Inej in the costume of Wylan’s attendant.
Jesper: And this remind me of my second presentation “Why Kaz Brekker should be my best man”. *turning on second presentation* First reason: Inej….

I wanna know what would've happened if Jordie didn't die? Would Kaz still have met the crows- in different circumstances? Would Inej have of been freed from the menagerie?

I don't think in a modern world, the Crows would completely keep to themselves in a college setting like these weirdass Cullens the way it's often depicted.
Like yes, The Crows would be the core group, but let's be honest, Jesper and Inej would be friends with everyone. Jesper would be the type of guy you'd see sitting at every table, chatting and joking with all the guys and gals and being loved by everyone he comes across. He'd talk to the quiet shy people and try to make them feel included and he'd make everyone at his table laugh.
Inej would have deep and meaningful conversations with lots of other girls and try to get to know them in the most unbiased way possible, but her favorite topic would probably be different cultures, religion, food from different places from all around the world, social injustice and travels. When she doesn't have these sorts of discussions, she goofs off with her peers; often that's her crows, often that's Kaz, but often it's also other people. She's blunt and direct and maybe some people have an issue with that, but those aren't people she involves herself with. She trusted some of the girls with her story, which just makes them admire her even more for how strong she is.
Nina would be one of the most well-known and popular girls on the campus, but in a...controversial way. Like she probably wouldn't be as universally loved as Inej and Jesper because she's very...out there, people might think she's a bit radical, she knows how good she looks (and isn't afraid to show it) and has a sense of humor that is a little too direct. Lots of people would love her, but some would then talk behind her back. There would also be sexist dudes who think she's "too much" (sorry, Matty) and "an arrogant bimbo", and girls with internalized misogyny would say she's "too crass" and "trying too hard", but whatever room she enters, she always finds people to talk to.
Matthias would find a few buddies since he often can't relate to Kaz, Wylan and Jesper. He loves them, but the demon boy gets on his nerves occassionally (their peers still laugh about the time when he snapped at Kaz to "Shut up" after he sneezed) and the other two don't have ANY morals, ugh 🙄 His buddies don't even have to be religious; Matthias just wants some NORMAL friends, is that too much to ask? He'd also be liked by the girls as a "big brother" type figure because he looks out for them and often intently listens to conversations about why the girls always carry pepper spray around.
Wylan wouldn't really have that many friends, but his peers like him because of his "shock humor". Like, he's quiet and blushes easily, but then when someone says something stupid or offensive in class, Wylan will suddenly out of nowhere respond with the most witty, unhinged shit they've ever heard. Just for that, they respect him and make him part of their (well meaning) jokes. He's not "invisible", he's also not really "out there", but he's accepted as "one of them" and everyone talks fondly about him. They also accept the fact that he can't read and it probably even makes him more interesting to them.
Kaz (and I'm sorry, but I REFUSE to acknowledge that Kaz would wear a suit on campus. He'd wear a casual black shirt/hoodie and black jeans, fight me. Don't make him more obnoxious than he needs to be 😭 Also, his backstory stays the same!) would, surprisingly, also be liked by most people due to his dry sense of humor and his blunt way to put things. A bunch of others would be intimidated by him, but overall, he'd be one of the more popular ones. Maybe the fact that he's together with Inej has something to do with that, too. He gives off major "Idc who you are and what you've done, we're cool if you don't get on my nerves"- vibes. When the class doesn't know how to solve a task, he's the one they turn to. Kaz IS actually socially intelligent, he just chooses not to be in canon; I mean, the bitch is a theater kid, he can slip into any role, which speaks for his ability to empathize with others. In college he doesn't have much reason to act like a wet cat, so he doesn't. He's not exactly "friendly", he doesn't let anyone get too close, doesn't share anything personal and the "No touching rule" is something most people on campus are aware of, but he still likes to talk to other people and discuss things with them. His peers try to give him THE most difficult riddles they can find, hoping to find one he can't solve, and get frustrated when he knows the answer to all of them. Have I also mentioned that he's a magician? Like come on, people would eat that shit up! Yeah, he's moody, but he also lives for dramatics and performances. You're trying to tell me he WOULDN'T make coins appear and disappear just to see the looks on his peers' faces?

Six of Crows AU where Jesper brings an emotional support goat over from his Fathers farm and it’s just there for the entire duology.
Just imagine Nina, Kaz, Inej and Matthias escaping from Hellgate and as they approach the boat Nina is like.
“Is that one of the escape animals?”
And Kaz just sighs in annoyance and goes “no that’s just Milo”
And Jesper is just grinning holding his goat.
Or when Inej wakes up from being stabbed and she’s with Nina and Jesper walks in and she’s just like.
“You brought the goat!?!?”
And he’s like “I thought we’d need some comforting” and hands her a goat to pet.
Poor Wylans just constantly staring at it until he finally works up the courage to be like “so what’s up with the goat?”
And Jesper who infamously can’t take anything seriously is just like “what do you mean?” Completely deadpan as though bringing a goat to a prison heist is a completely normal thing to do and it sends Wylan spiralling.
Matthais already thinks the Crows are weird and the goat is just one more thing to confirm his suspicions, but Jesper is incredibly insistent that petting a goat is the number one way to alleviate stress and he eventually gives in and pets the goat.
It bites him.
And it only gets worse after they make it out.
Kuwei just has to hear Jesper lament about all his struggles to this goat for hours. The others are already used to it, but by the time they make it back to Ketterdam he’s seriously having second thoughts about why he finds this man attractive.
And Kaz has been half contemplating murdering it since Jesper joined the Dregs and bought the Goat along with him, but unfortunately everyone’s grown strangely attached, him included.
And Kaz won’t admit it, but he did grow up on the farm and they did have animals and the goat reminds him a little of when he was a kid and times were a little bit better. So he pretends to be completely and utterly against the goat like those dads when you get a dog acting like they don’t snuggle up next to it every night and the Crows figure out pretty quickly that Kaz does in fact love this goat.
So they go to confront Van Eck and they just bring the goat, cause why not?
And obviously Wylans dad is like. What’s up with the goat. And all the present crows stare at him like he’s the crazy one for thinking there’s something wrong with the goat.
6 of Crows + Jespers emotional support goat.

modern university au Kaz would be the type to secretly carry around a stash of hard candies and discreetly pop one in his mouth every so often.
Nina would catch him during class and wave her hand in a ‘gimme’ fashion.
In a different class Kaz sits next to his not so secret crush Inej and slides her favorite flavor across the shared desk table. (She’s of course never told him which one’s her favorite.)

can you imagine the Crows playing Monopoly? Kaz would think he's definitely gonna win but Wylan is kicking his ass. Jesper is choking on his laughter bc he knows if he laughs at Kaz he's gonna get punched. Matthias spends half the game in prison. Nina is always in debt. Inej has the three cheapest places and maybe two houses and she just enjoys the game. Wylan counts his money sweating as Kaz looks him dead in the eye while paying third time in a row.

Really random stuff from our world that I think the Crows would love
Wylan - Lego, converse, Doritos, audiobooks, 3D printers, Spotify
Inej - stained glass windows, Florence + the Machine, those water bottles that have the time you should aim to drink each amount by down the side, Lego flowers
Jesper - Doc Martens, fidget/sensory rings, Florence + the Machine, swing chairs, rollerskating
Nina - Heelies, Doc Martens, romcoms, Doritos, fanfics (I stole this one from @lunarthecorvus but it’s absolutely correct), those blankets that have hoods so you can wear them like a poncho, Lush, patisseries
Kaz - The Amazing Devil, touch-screen sensitive gloves (as long as the actually worked because they don’t always and that would drive him mad)
Matthias - romcoms, adopting animals from a shelter, Hotel Chocolat velvetisers (i don’t know why but I know I’m right)
Feel free to add more! There’s a good chance I will

Me and my partner had a conversation a few months ago about how if jordie hadn’t died, it’s possible that all of the crows would have.
the scenario is ‘what if jordie hadn’t died of plague?’
kaz and jordie probably would have gone back to lij or eventually figured out a way through ketterdam. but kaz wouldn’t have joined the dregs.
inej would have been stuck in the menagerie for life. she would have died there, unable to pay off her indenture.
matthias would probably have died in hellgate, unless nina figured out how to free him. but that definitely would have taken a while and he may have just killed her on sight.
wylan would have died in the tannery. that place was already killing him with fumes and he was barely making enough money. or alternatively, he would have died of exhaustion. or if not, his father’s men would have got him.
nina would have joined the dime lions. she only joined the dregs because inej was sent by kaz to employ her. it’s possible that she would have lived, but like. nina in the dime lions? who knows.
jesper joined the dregs because he got jumped in an alley, so that may have killed him. if not, well… he was so deep in debt that he’d probably end up in trouble anyway.
and kuwei would still be in the ice court, forced to give iver the formula for parem. because the crows were the only ones to ever break into the ice court.
in conclusion, jordie had to die for the rest of the crows to live. honestly, jordie and kaz might have died as well. either in the barrel or if they tried to get back to lij, then on the way back to lij. but if kaz doesn’t end up on reaper’s barge, none of the crows make it. and pekka still rules the barrel.
