Perhaps the hardest thing for a thief to learn is how to mind his own business - especially where his friends are concerned!

This is a really quick piece I did for my sister, @BooksRgood4u, for her birthday. It's from the prompt, "Happy Birthday" (I know, very creative!). A drabble of Nico getting her first taste of a birthday celebration.

This drabble was requested by @BooksRgood4u on Tumblr from a prompt meme. It takes place when Nico is relatively new to the world of thievery and not quite sure how she should behave. As always, she's got mother hen Josef to watch out for her and make her feel better.

A collection of one-shots about Josef and Nico's burgeoning friendship.

You remember Zigget, right? Got perhaps two lines in the second book. Everyone loves Zigget. Well he left Zarin to go after pirates. But when he arrived things proved more complicated. He meets a group of splintering Spiritualists, though he wouldn't call them that, but they are his only nearby option for assistance. So they'll have to do. But this isn't only his story.

Set after The Spirit War. Eli has returned to life with Benehime, and a new pattern of life emerges. Rated M for the unsexiest not-smut ever.

Josef spots something on Eli's shoulder- teasing abounds.

After a terrible battle against the League, Josef discovers Nico on the mountain and saves her life, offering her the opportunity to become part of Eli's team and a new family. Told from the POV of different characters.
