    Summary

    The only sound in Finn’s world is the plink… plink… plink of the kitchen faucet and the quiet, tense silence of their mother trying to hold everything together. What happens when a new neighbor with a toolbox and a booming laugh walks in and stops the leak? What happens when the quiet that replaces it isn’t so lonely?

    (A love story about broken things, the people who fix them, and the family they build piece by quiet piece.)

    Summary

    “It’s about compromise,” Glimmer supplies, “seeing how well two conflicting people work together under difficult circumstances for an extended period of time. Adora goes to the gym everyday, Catra’s only form of workout is walking from her dorm to her classes, Adora wakes no later than eight in the morning, Catra got mad at me for waking her up,” she lifts her hands for air quotes, “‘in the middle of the night’ at eight in the morning—”

    “Adora obviously wants to be friends, but Catra keeps pushing it off,” Entrapta adds in, and based off the way both Glimmer and Bow grimace, that wasn’t supposed to be mentioned.

    “So what,” Adora starts, “you just… handcuffed us together in our sleep?”

    (or, in which Glimmer handcuffs Adora and Catra together for twenty-four hours, Entrapta is a little shit, and Bow is an innocent bystander in the entire mess.)

    Summary

    Well, perhaps Catra hadn’t heard. Or better yet, she thinks Adora was joking – it’s the kind of deadpan humour that Catra loves. Maybe she’ll crack up and praise the blonde’s unwavering wit, then they both sit too close with hot tea and gay-coded children’s shows while brainstorming realistic methods of saving money. And maybe that was optimistic, but Adora has often considered herself a lucky woman.

    She turns to peek into the kitchen where Catra had stilled mid-pour. Rigid.

    Fuck.

    Adora does not consider herself a lucky woman.

    OR: Catra and Adora are poor college students. Adora suggests they share a bed. Confessions ensue.

    Summary

    “So.”

    “So.”

    “I hear Mermista met Melog,” Glimmer says.

    Catra throws her head back. “I can’t believe I got gaslit by my own fucking cat,” she complains.

    -OR-

    Five times Melog drives off one of Catra’s hookups, and one time they don’t.
