The Crows watching Horror Films
Kaz:
Loves horror movies
Is basically the perfect horror film watcher
Watches intently
Never jumps at the jump-scares, the most you'll get out of him is a startled 'oh'
Always guesses who the mystery killer is
Always guesses it correctly
Loves slasher films
Inej:
Not a big fan of most horror films
Likes the final girl trope
Prefers sci-fi horror to anything else
Will rant about the pseudo-sadist, purity-obsessed horror films and why they can be better to anyone who'll listen
Won't go out of her way to watch a horror but will make an effort if A) Kaz wants to or B) It's made by a diverse minority of some kind
Jesper:
Hates horror films
Watches them because Kaz and Wylan like them
Loves watching them with Wylan because it gives him an excuse to cuddle up to his boyfriend
"are you scared?" "no" (literally shaking in his seat)
Is that one guy who screams at the screen like a goat
"I wish Milo was here, I wish Milo was here, I WISH MILO WAS HERE, I WISH MILOOOOOOOO-"
"ThAt'S nOt WhErE bLoOd Is MeAnT tO bEeEeEEEEEEE-"
"Wy, hold me, I'm scared" "The film hasn't even started yet-"
Jumps at every jump scare. Every. Single. One.
Wylan:
Likes horror films, especially ghost ones
Finds them cathartic
Has long conversations about themes and analysing horror with Inej and Matthias
Has seen all the classics
Likes gothic horror films
Is the only one who'll put up with Jesper's antics
Can't watch slashers - too violent
If he gets scared, he'll cover his ears and scream in short bursts until he isn't scared anymore
Matthias:
Is that one guy who'll analyse the film while watching it
Points out how scientifically incorrect all the kills are
Has very specific catagories for what counts as a horror film
Loves cult films, especially the Wicker Man
Can't watch haunting films, hates them so, so much
Nina:
Doesn't like horror films
Makes fun of Jesper for being so scared but then screams just as loud as him
Yells and swears at the characters for being so stupid
Ended up practically glued to Matthias' lap, if she didn't start out that way
"NO ONE would be that stupid to actually do [X]"
Quotes Scream at every given opportunity
(whenever someone on screen has sex) "Ooooooooh, you gonna diiiiie"
Kuwei:
Laughs at the jumpscares
Not even like a nervous laugh, plain out, hilarious laughter
Knows everything about how the films were made
Loves horror, possibly even more than Kaz
"Jes, are you scared? You can hold my hand if you want"
Has to sit a safe distance away from Wylan at all times to avoid being murdered
Explains how they did that stunt on screen as the stunt is happening (but will shut up if asked nicely)
Really likes body horror

How Kaz would take care of you during exam season (Headcanons)
Pairing: Kaz Brekker x Reader (can be read as any gender, no pronouns used)
Genre: drabble, fluff
Word Count: 317
Warnings: food, Kaz is staring and he’s aware of it
He always brings you coffee, or rather your favourite hot drink. It takes him a few tries to get it right, and he always watches you very carefully when you take your first sips, so he knows how to improve it.
If he doesn’t make the drink himself, he gets it from your favourite shop. He knows your order because he always pays close attention when you talk to the staff, so he can learn it.
He is not very good at languages or sciences, but he aces math, even though he never really paid attention in classes. So, if you need help with math, he’s the guy to go to.
But actually... you don’t.
Because he always turns up before you even know you’re going to have a question, it’s never you who approaches him, but he who approaches you. It’s almost like he’s desperately searching for a way to spend more time with you… but he wouldn’t. Why would he?
Everyone is always scared for your life when they find out he’s helping you, worried he might lose his temper with you, but even though he is often grumpy, he never shoots a nasty word your way, never raises his voice, never gets impatient.
As a matter of fact, he’s more patient with you than you’d like. You almost feel bad for how much he takes care of you and helps you, even when you’re unconcentrated. And when you brood over an exercise or are writing an essay, Kaz doesn’t just leave. Instead, he props his elbow up on the table, chin in his gloved hand, and leans over a book. The only time he’s actually looking at the book though is when you lift your head. The rest of the time he just watches you, and he would absolutely deny it, but there’s a soft smile on his lips as he watches you work.

Snow Ball Fight War
the Crows enjoy some winter shenanigans
“Ugh! You are so dead!”
“... What have you done?”
“Signed your death warrant?” Wylan offered.
“Wy, not helping, your boyfriend’s about to die!!!” Jesper groaned as Kaz glowered at him, a chunk of icy slush stuck to the back of his head.
“Pffft,” Nina snorted as she snuck up behind Matthias.“Sucker.”
Matthias barely had time to blink before his head was covered in a pile of snow.
“I thought we had a truce drusje!” Matthias gasped as he tried to shake the snow out of his hair.
“I’m innocent!!!!” Jesper wailed as he climbed into a bush to escape Kaz’s wrath. “Wylan set me up, I swear! He threw that snowball bomb thingy!”
Wyaln smiled innocently. “You know I know better than to do that right Kaz?”
“Jesper, get your sorry ass down here,” Kaz hissed as he prepared a snowball, making sure to turn it into a hard chunk of ice in his hands first.
*Splat
“OWWW! Who the heck threw that!” Nina whined. “It went down my shirt.”
Nina squirmed as she felt the snow trickle down her back.
“MATTHIAS!” Nina growled. “It was you wasn’t it?”
“WHAT? I would never!” Matthias protested. But it was too late, Nina had already dumped a bucket of snow onto Matthias in retaliation, a mysterious army of undead aiding her in burying Matthias in the snow.
“Kaz, Let me borrow your cane,” Nina called. “I’ve had a genius idea, you can thank me later.”
“Hell no,” Kaz snapped. “You’re going to betray me or something.”
“I’m just gonna use it as a baseball bat to bat my snowballs!” Nina protested.
Kaz paused slightly, tilting his head to one side. Nina sighed, knowing her plan was now futile with Kaz scheming. Something in the back of Nina’s mind told her she was missing something, yet she couldn’t quite piece it together.
“Uh, oh,” Jesper whispered from his spot in the bush “Scheming face… This is bad!”
“WYLAN, I’M GONNA GET YOU FOR THIS!!!” Jesper vowed, just in time for Kaz to bat his icy snowball into Jesper’s face.
“Oh, saints,” Jesper groaned as he fell out of the bush from the impact.
Meanwhile sitting quietly in the shadows sitting tea from her thermos, Inej was enjoying the chaos her friends were in. She supposes she feels a little bad for framing Matthias, but what would the fun be without doing just that? She arched her brow as she noticed Wylan taking the opportunity of Kaz and Jesper yelling at each other to set up some sort of contraption.
“If we tie that rope here…. And the leverage here….” Wylan murmured. “Then the pit is there… and I have some snowball launchers here….”
Inej smiled. Poor Wylan, she thought. He has no idea that I’m going to win this.
“I forfeit!” Jesper sighed in defeat as Nina shoved a lump of snow down his collar.
“My head hurts. I’m cold and miserable, I’m going to go buy some hot chocolate!” Jesper grumbled.
“I told you, to load the snowballs into your rifles and use it that way,” Nina called after Jesper’s retreating form. “Not my fault you didn’t listen! Buy me some waffles?”
“Buy your own waffles you stupid heartrender!”
“That’s the Queen of Mourning to you!” Nina called back. “C’mon don’t be a sore lo…. ACK!”
Nina scowled as she was vaulted face-first into the snow. “Why the hell is there piano wire here?”
“Oops, my bad” Wylan grinned cheekily.
“You little…” Nina winced as she sat up “That’s cheating!”
“You’re the one using an army of the undead to pour buckets of snow onto Matthias,” Wylan argued.
“That’s different,” Nina protested. “The druskelle is literally born from a glacier, he’ll live.”
“MMkay Nina, whatever you say,” Wylan shrugged. “But you’re going down, say goodbye!”
“Huh?”
Wylan pulled on a rope, and his contraption dumped a pile of snow onto Nina, causing the girl to disappear into the white-powdered cold.
At that moment, Kaz forcefully batted an icy snowball into Wylan’s stomach, causing Wylan to double over in pain, curling up into a ball.
“Gah…” Wylan grunted as he curled up into the snow.
Kaz grinned triumphantly. “I win this round as ….”
Kaz flinched as he felt a presence behind him. How did I not notice? Kaz cursed. But it was too late, Inej aimed a snowball at the back of his head, Kaz grunted at the impact and slush going down his face.
“Who’s winning what Brekker?” Inej pondered as she peered down at him from a tree.
“Wraith,” Kaz warned. “You don’t want to do this.”
Nina poked her head out of the snow. “INEJ, WIN THIS FOR ME!!!”
Inej grinned. “Sorry, not sorry Kaz.”
With that, Inej dumped a bucket load of snow onto Kaz, effectively burying him and ending the snowball fight.
Nina trudged up to Kaz. “To think you lost after I gave you the idea to bat the snowballs with your cane. I’m disappointed in you. Next time. I will just steal your cane.”
“I’m gonna win next time Zenik,” Kaz scowled.
“You’re okay right?” Wylan asked Nina.
“Hmph. I will be if you buy me waffles,” Nina proposed.
“Ugh, fine, I guess I owe you,” Wylan sighed. “And Kaz, that hurt way too much. It’s a snowball fight, not an icicle fight!”
“Whoop whoop!” Nina fist-pumped.
“I wouldn’t mind an icicle duel,” Inej mused.
“Ooooh,” Nina grinned.
“You’re on,” Kaz nodded.
“Tomorrow?” Inej asked.
“Heyyyy… I’m invited, right?” Jesper called as he approached the group with a tray full of hot chocolate.
“Bless your soul Jes,” Inej grinned. “Thanks for the drinks, and of course you are.”
“Hey, Kaz! Where are you going?”
“To get these god-forsaken wet, snow-drenched clothes off of me. It’s cold and nasty.”
“The snow down my neck is pretty nasty," Wylan agreed.
“Let’s go have some hot chocolate and warm up inside.”
“We should roast marshmallows, and see how many each person can stuff in their mouth!” Nina proposed.
“You’re hopeless,” Wylan sighed.
“You're on waffle girl!” Jesper cackled. “I’m so gonna beat you.”
“I wouldn’t bet against me,” Inej called out as she made her way inside.
“Let’s go!” Nina and Jesper cheered, high-fiving each other.
“Can’t I just eat my marshmallows in peace?” Wylan sighed in defeat.
“LOSER!” Nina called.
The group made their way inside, preparing for more chaos involving marshmallow roasting and probably a brawl involving monopoly later.
Epilogue:
“I can easily swallow 8 marshmallows at once, that's nothing,” Jesper rolled his eyes.
“Watch me, I can do 20,” Nina challenged, preparing to stuff more roasted marshmallows in her mouth.
“You all are menaces to society.”
“Says the guy who batted a chunk of ice into my face.”
“Guys?” Inej piped up. “Where’s Matthias?”
An awkward silence ensued.
Nina’s eyes widened in horror. “Oh shit, He’s still buried in the snow!”
“Pfft, he’s gonna kill you,” Wylan snorted.
“Wylan!” Nina exclaimed. “I’m gonna go get him!”
“I’ll prepare for a funeral for Matthias the icicle,” Kaz noted as he sipped his black coffee
“GUYS!”
