Summary
“This is going to be so much fun, Toni,” Martha says distractedly, as she scrawls down her own name. “And this means that I can properly introduce you and Shelby at auditions! You guys can now officially become friends!”
Across the cafeteria, Toni accidentally makes eye contact with Shelby, sitting at a table surrounded by other glamorous shiny girls in expensive clothes with sleek ponytails, Andrew Johnson next to her with an arm slung around her shoulders. Shelby’s expression is inscrutable, green eyes piercing, and Toni uncharacteristically is the first to break eye contact.
Yeah, right, she thinks. Friends.
What a fucking joke.
or, after an accident that results in her suspension from the basketball team, Toni’s social worker encourages her to join the all-girls school production of 'Romeo and Juliet'. There, she meets Shelby.

Summary
“So, that’s that,” Shelby says. “Consider this me setting boundaries. You know, drawing a line.”
“Right. And is this line, theoretically, a bit flexible?”
“Flexible?”
“Yeah,” Toni says. “Like, could I move the line so I wouldn’t be crossing it if I were to kiss you?”

Summary
Dani and Jamie are the foster parents to fifteen-year-old Toni Shalifoe. These are snippets of their lives together. Lots of drama, lots of angst, lots of love.
Basically I have major writers block and wanted to see these two universes collide.
Also, Jamie and Dani did meet at Bly Manor; there is no Lady of the Lake; and they live in Vermont and run The Leafling together. This takes place in present day, so Dani and Jamie are legally married.
If you have any ideas for these characters that you want brought to life, feel free to leave any prompts in the comments! The angsty-er the better!
