    Summary

    Rory never really has known what to do with herself. Having wasted three years of her life on a college education that she always knew she was going to hate, she suddenly makes the decision to take over her late grandfather's farm.

    The valley the farm is in has never been like the rest of the world. There, the sun burns brighter, the water is clearer and the flowers bloom more colourfully than anywhere else. It has always felt like magic. And with Rory constantly feeling one step out of sync with the rest of the world, it could be exactly what she needs to get herself back on track.

    She just hadn't expected an actual wizard to appear at her doorstep, positively seething at the fact that she had not responded to his letter.

    Summary

    For a minute, it’s hard to see the source of the blood, rivulets running down the thin lines of his abs, pooling in the hollow of his belly button. It smears red across too much of him, and Beth has to lean in a little closer until the metallic scent of blood hits her nostrils and it’s all she can smell. She curls her hair behind her ears, traces her gaze until she finds the wound that’s still weeping. A round little puncture about the size of a watch face, a newborn’s yawning mouth, a golden dollar, in the normally honeyed skin at the edge of his left hip.

    Beth exhales, and she’s close enough it hits his side, if the shiver that runs through him is any indication, and she shifts back onto the couch as she looks back up at him.
    -

    A blackout rolls over the city and Rio shows up at Beth's in need of a little care. Set post-s4.

    Summary

    Gesturing to the bartender to get his usual while simultaneously grunting out, “Got a tail.”

    He says it offhand. Like she doesn’t need any more detail than that.

    She freezes, head whipping around and immediately searching the bar for someone watching them, hand itching to grab the duffle bag of cash stashed below the bar and hide it just that little bit better.

    His hand darts to her thigh, grip firm. Steady. His thumb is brushing back and forth on the skin exposed where her dress has ridden up in what she thinks is supposed to be a soothing manner. But it just makes matters worse. Because now on top of the anxiety of a threat’s eyes on her, Rio’s hand is on her.

    or, Beth and Rio HAVE to kiss to hide from the bad guys!! they have to!!
