KCD Rare Pairs Week 2026 draws to a close...

But fear not!

The AO3 collection will remain open until 14th February 2026 and I will continue to monitor the tag & repost during that time, too, so feel free to continue posting your work. I was going to say "let's see if we can make it to 100 works by the 14th!" but it looks like that'll happen, uh... very soon! Let's make it 150? 💀 Also, if you're having trouble posting to the collection, click here.

If I haven't reposted something you made, feel free to send it me via DM or tag me in it.

Thank you so much, from the bottom of my heart, to everyone who participated, creators and supporters alike. This was my first time running an event and it exceeded all my expectations. It was also just a joy to run. I hope to see you in the future for more KCDRPW!

On that note:

Here is a short feedback form.

Please fill it out if you'd like to have some input on the future of the event and/or comment on the week itself.

Lastly, I encourage you all to dive into the collection & the blog's tags here on Tumblr to see if you surface with a few new rare pairs, and to comment where you can!

See ya next time.

New Fic!

Wrestling With A Pig

Svatya Thrush decides to pay Hans Capon another visit – and this time, he knows all about what Hans has been getting up to in the Kopanina woods.

Isn’t there anything Hans can do to convince the bailiff’s son to stay quiet about all this?

Day 3 - drink

What a tease hehe

Also, this comic comes before my previous one 😈

[bexthebard]

Each work can be read as a standalone story, but together they form a broader narrative — one bad decision leading to another, teasing giving way to something deeper, and two men slowly realising they may be in far more trouble than they ever intended. Featuring monsters that turn out to be goats, banter that turns dangerous, intimacy that sneaks up when neither man is looking, and the slow realisation that sometimes, with the right person, feelings do matter.

Day5-Bath

jobst x sigismund (young)

This is a scene from a fanfic written by an author I really love… The week is already over, but I decided to upload it anyway. Seriously, everyone—I really hope you’ll read this story. It’s so, so good… 😭

Day 7 of of KCD Rare Pairs Week

Prompt: Dream Relationships: Hanush of Leipa/Radzig Kobyla Length: 1,1k words

Spoiler warning for KCD1 ending! Summary:

“Sir Kobyla s-sent me away, Sir,” the poor guard’s voice cracked, “he is in the dining hall and wished to be alone.”

“Hmpf,” Hanush grunted. “I’ll be the judge of that. And now stop rambling here like old wives on the green and do your job, or I’ll have you whipped!”

Radzig deals with the aftermath of his involuntary stay with a Hungarian host. Getting a good night’s sleep sounds more like a fairy tale, but at least he’s not left alone to get cold in the middle of the night.

Alternative Medicine

Chapter 1/?

Fandom: Kingdom Come Deliverance

Pairing: Katherine/Musa of Mali

Additional Tags: Eye Gore (paragraphs 3 and 4), Blood and Injury, Background Relationships (Katherine/Jan Zizka implied), Post-Canon

Rating: Mature (Rating May Change)

Summary: After removing Zizka’s injured eye, Katherine grapples with her anger and frustration. Musa of Mali provides a glimpse of comfort.

Submitted to the KCD Rare Pairs Week 2026 collection @kcdrarepairsweek

Day 2: Heal

"I'm sorry, Lady Katherine," Musa said. His trepidatious voice pricked at her.

“Oh, what do you have to be sorry about," she said flatly. It wasn't fair and she knew it, but nothing about today had been fair. She stared at her hands in her lap holding the crumpled linen. "You didn't shoot the damn thing. He brought it on himself."

“I'm not sorry about that," Musa said. "They may be great warriors, but Zizka and Dry Devil are still foolish, reckless drunkards. He's very lucky the bolt didn't go through his brain. No, I only meant that I'm sorry to see you so hurt."

Read the rest on AO3!

For Day 06 of the KCD Rare Pair Week 2026 Event I went for the prompt Confession!

Decided to tie this to my first prompt fill of this event as small continuation for my now beloved Hadder ship! <3

Day 04 for the KCD Rare Pair Week 2026 Event got me quite surprised! I went once again for both prompts of that day and the Wheel decided on Kubyenka and Samuel!

Although my shortest entry, Smayenka had me in a tight grip and I ended falling for the ship harder than I thought I would...
