    Summary

    Nat slows, hands in her jacket pockets and brows slightly raised because she’s never exactly been close with Lottie.

    Yet there she is, peeling a menacing gaze away from the group of boys and settling a soft one upon Natalie once she spots her, all long brown hair and tan skin and god, Nat is always fucking winded at how tall she is.

    or,

    —Do you have any weapons on you?
    —I have a longing that's killing me.
    Mahmoud Darwish, from Memory for Forgetfulness: August, Beirut, 1982 (tr. Ibrahim Muhawi)

    Summary

    They stay that way for a long time, Catra’s face tucked into Adora’s shoulder, Adora gently cradling Catra’s head. Adora is careful not to hug Catra too hard or make her feel restrained, anticipating the moment that Catra will start to pull away — but Catra doesn’t. She hangs on so tightly it hurts, her claws digging through Adora’s jacket and into her back, latching into her like she did when she was a kitten and didn’t know how much her claws could hurt. Adora tries not to wince, tries not to move a single muscle, worried that if she does the spell will break and Catra will struggle away, appalled at having shown weakness.

    But Catra doesn’t let go. And so neither does Adora.

    Summary

    Diego elbows Ava lightly in the side to get her attention. "Ava? How come you don't have a boyfriend?" he asks.

    What if it’s because of him? What if she’s so busy always trying to make sure that he’s taken care of that she’s missing out on all the things other nineteen-year-olds get to do?

    "Huh?" There's a pause, and he can almost see Ava's brain stutter into stillness before lurching back to life. "Well, um, Diego, it's like — I'm really — if I thought that — see, it’s more like —"

    He hears Lilith scoff and turns towards her. "It's not that hard. Kid, Ava's down bad for —"

    "Shut up, Lilith," Ava grinds out, cutting her off.

    After leaving St Michael’s, Ava does everything she can to support Diego, including taking him to extracurriculars. Beatrice is his aikido instructor, and it changes everything.

    Summary

    A full blown shiver wracks his form, hair stiff on the back of his neck. His body blinks like a stop-light, his teeth oscillating in his jaw.

    He closes his eyes; re-opens them. The guy’s still there.

    Miles stares, bewildered. “You’re like me.”

    Gwen asks Hobie to keep an eye on Miles for a bit while she works up some courage. Hobie Brown doesn’t do things by halves.
