Despite the black eyes and the inky lines that coursed up his neck, he still had an elegant face—his mother’s fine cheekbones, the strong jaw that must have come from his ambassador father. His frown deepened. Then he reached out and plucked the emerald up in his claws.

Ruin and Rising, Chapter 16

“Saints,” Zoya said as she stared down at the portrait. “The likeness—”

“Striking, I know.” Only the eyes were different—tiny daubs of blue instead of hazel—and the beard, of course. But looking at the miniature was like gazing into the future, at a Nikolai grown a bit older, a bit graver, with lines at the corners of his eyes.

King of Scars, Chapter 6

Except the man gripping the iron bars didn’t look ordinary. He looked like King Nikolai. His hair was golden, though streaked with gray, his beard unkempt. His fine clothes were rumpled and stained. He’d been gagged and chained to the cell bars to give him a limited range of movement. There was nothing in the tiny cell but a cot and a chamber pot.

Rule of Wolves, Chapter 16

Opjer unwound his scarf and Nikolai drew in a breath.

“Tatiana told me you took after me,” Opjer said. “But I cannot quite believe the likeness.”

“It’s all true then.”

“I’m afraid so.”

Grishaverse love stories in a Bridgerton like Au

Most images are from Pinterest, if the original person where I got them wants me to take them down I will

Kanej

-They are lady Whistledown, meaning Inej gets the secrets and Kaz publishes them , probably in order to distract the town from radical groups

-Kaz gets a deal with noble man Per Haskell , he must help Inej marry a nobleman. Part of the share would go to Per Haskell and Inej wants the rest to travel and find her family that she lost after being kidnapped.

-Kaz tries to set her up with Lord Wylan Van eck , ignoring his own feelings due to lack of noble titles and the money she needs, while Inej believes this is simply because he prefers the monetary compensation than her and she needs the money anyway

Zoyalai

-Very similar to the books,Nikolai is the heir to the Ravka crown after the death of his brother Vasily. After losing her family in a mysterious fire, Lady Zoya has lost more of her property and she is no longer a candidate to be courted. The favors lean towards princess Ehri from Shu Han or Lady Alina who was just found to be a rich heiress.

-Despite her lack of richness, Lady Zoya has a high status as the King’s confidant , it’s famously beautiful and every man wishes to be the one to conquer her cold heart,Count Kirigin has his eyes in her

-Lady Zoya’s work is to advice the king about the his best option, Lady Alina seems the safest since Princess Ehri may have inner plans ,Zoya also must help him hide his status as a born bastard. This gets complications, in an attempt to hide King Nikolai’s visit to his real father, Zoya has to twist it and makes it believe she has an affair with the king, that the letters that she burned were love letters from each other (actually The queen and Magnus Opjer’s letters)

-Zoya needs a plan, Nikolai must still marry one of the candidates so she fakes an affair that will end up with the future king dumping her for one of the girls. If she is lucky,Count Kirigin won’t be too put off by this but she is not against the idea of becoming a spinster. Complications arise when in one of their affair fake outs, their flirting scales too much and becomes a real thing.

Malina

-As said above, Alina Starkov was a worker on an orphanage, she was losing hope in her childhood friend confessing to her. One day he is enlisted in the army ,Alina decides to confess to him instead but just as she is going to his place to say her goodbyes she is forcefully taken. She finds out she is a lost heiress and it’s taken to the palace to be a candidate for the king’s hand

-At the beginning she acts uneducated to not get chosen, but one day she gets the news that Mal is nowhere to be found,presumed dead,body not found.Alina spends months in mourning, acting normal in public,making friends with the company lady Genya but crying the whole night. She eventually tries to distract herself by doing something with her fortune and spends some on her old orphanage and it’s both admired and frowned upon for “acting like a normal not noble ,woman” . She becomes a dismissive public figure,some want her to marry the king,some fear her to be a radical

-One day she is having a secret walk in the stables and find someone: her friend Mal,a deserter now. Alina needs to keep hiding Mal,who poses as a servant and visits her at night with the excuse of guarding her door,they both need to find a way to elope

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 

#now we all are chosen ones #one for sorrow #bright morning stars #falling #gold rush #fic writing #hunger games au

the way vasily would look at magnus opjer like: oh okay so nik looks like new dad okay

#not 'nik's dad' just dad #bc nik is his brother no half about it #that's his full blooded (pain) brother right there #so if magnus is nik's dad then that means magnus is his dad too #makes FULL sense #note: this does not apply to linnea

Breaking in is the fun part || a starter for count kirigin @batailleuris

None is more resourceful than Linnea Opjer. Of course, being a closeted DURAST surely helps a bit. But with that force of will, her grisha abilities surely wouldn’t serve much. Anyhow. Talking about her unwavering determination… this is what has got them climbing their way into Count Kirigin’s chamber.

A few weeks ago, Linnea had received a coded message from her dad. And they’d found that the KEY to solving that mystery about Magnus' whereabouts, surprisingly, lay within the King of Ravka’s hands. And so, they decided to pay the man a visit. Lucky for her, the king was rumored to attend a lavish party at Count Kirigin’s estate. And they jumped on the occasion to meet with the king there…except they didn't manage to get an official invitation.

And so, this is when the breaking in part of the plan came into place. And they’d picked the window of kirigin chamber as their way in, assuming the room would surely be empty for the count would be too busy entertaining his guests at the revelry happening downstairs.

WRONG. It wasn’t empty.

The window slams shut behind her and she gasps as she meets the man’s gaze through the looking glass. They also quickly register that he is missing half his clothes — well, everything supposed to cover his chest! — and quickly averts her eyes, a slight flush spreading across their pale cheeks. They smooth down their coat, clearing their throat, hazels fixated on the wallpaper — anywhere but on his half-naked form. ❛ Ahem… In my defense, you were NOT supposed to be there. You have a lovely room by the way. ❜ The last bit has been added on, so very casually, in an attempt to make things less AWKWARD. And it failed miserably.

#BATAILLEURIS (KIRIGIN)

THE GIFTED CHILDREN OF MAGNUS OPJER.

» LINNEA OPJER: half-sister of Nikolai. 23-year-old student of the University of Ketterdam, where she is studying engineering. She is a beauty with a calm character and has a talent for mathematics. The girl is inseparable with pencils and a slide rule, tempered in reference books, in love with the parallelogram of forces and the laws of nonlinear hydrodynamics.

» NIKOLAI LANTSOV: the king of Ravka and a resourceful corsair, known as too-clever fox. He is very intelligent and is said to excel at practically anything he tries. He is proficient in a number of weapons - pistols, knives and a sword; Nikolai can juggle. He has a passion for puzzles and inventions, as well as for the construction of aircraft and ships. It was the library that had taught Nikolai military history, strategy, chemistry, astronomy.

What does Nikolai believe his greatest "weakness" is, and how does that compare to a meta point of view? Is he self aware of his actual biggest weakness? Is he even aware he has any?

              HE  SAID      weakness ?  what  a  silly  idea .  a ; slfdkj  but  no .  hm .  i  think  nikolai  thinks  his  biggest  weakness  is ,  honestly ,  that  he  isn't  as  ruthless  as  he  should  be .  he  can  make  the  hard  decisions .  but  he  feels  he's  probably  too  lenient  99 %  of  the  time .  his  father  probably  should  have  hanged  for  his  crimes . he probably  should  have  had  magnus  opjer  assassinated  to  protect  his  claim  to  the  throne .  he  should  take  fewer  prisoners  and  create  more  bodies .  he's  pretty  sure  it's  going  to  kill  him  one  day . 

              i     ,  on  the  other  hand ,  think  nikolai's  biggest  weakness  is  his  constant  need  for  control . he's  so  terrified  that  if  he  loosens  his  grip  even  a  little  on  all  the  threads  he's  got  clenched  in  his  fist ,  it'll  all  come  unravelling  around  him ,  and  he'll  be  left  to  what  he  really  is :  a  bastard  wit  no  title ,  no  family ,  and  no  power ,  which  would  mean  no  way  to  do  the      ONE      thing  he  wants  to  do :      fix  ravka     .  but  because  of  this  need  for  control ,  to  always  be  six  steps  ahead  on  the  chess  board ,  it  means  he  rarely  confides  in  anyone ,  almost  never  tells  them  the  whole  plan ,  because  he's  so  scared  that  it  will  result  in  betrayal .  but  it  also  means  it  makes  himself  completely  alone ,  without  feeling  like  he  can  ever  properly  confide  in  anyone .  and  it's  going  to  ruin  him  if  he's  not  careful .

[grishaverse-chaos]

thinking about fabrikator!nikolai again........

#it would work SO WELL #like i genuinely believe that this should have been canon #because while the ending of row is excellent....... i also have very complicated feelings about it for Reasons #(ie i have very complicated feelings about zoyalai as a whole) #so fabrikator!nikolai is just so perfect #and honestly it would work SO WELL with the narrative themes #and the parallel/foil between nikolai and the darkl!ng........... #anyways im obsessed with this au and one day i might even write a fic about it #(i feel like the magnus opjer origin fic ive mentioned before might end up as a fic exploring both this and also my thoughts about zoyalai) #grishaverse #mayhem.txt #mayhem grishaverse originals #nikolai lantsov
