    Summary

    “Tell me about your new book. The one where Viper finally tells Evelyn she loves her.”

     

    “She doesn’t,” Wednesday replied, then felt the faint frown on Enid’s lips before she saw it. “Not yet. The manuscript is only two-thirds complete.”

     

    She didn’t say that since graduation day—since Enid’s collapse on the stage—fiction had turned to sand slipping through her fingers. She only promised, softly, that the chapter would exist. 

     

    And that she would read it to her one day. 

     

    Even if the audience was only a memory.

     

    · · ─ · ⏾ · ─ · ·

     

    After graduation, Enid Sinclair learns she is dying, and Wednesday refuses to leave her girlfriend’s side for the months that remain.

    Surrounded by faith and false hopes, Wednesday realizes that love is the only fable and fact she will ever believe in.

    (Based on the song ‘Fable’ by Gigi Perez)

    Summary

    Wednesday supposed that with the wide variety of both bizarre and traditional extracurricular activities offered to students at Nevermore, a mandatory camping trip was not so farfetched. She wasn’t against the idea, but she was doubtful that gallivanting around outdoors with her classmates would lead to whatever sort of healing Principal Weems was hoping.

    Summary

    Enid doesn’t really know what she’s doing in Nevermore. She’s a non-bender, she shouldn’t be here. But her mother won’t listen, refusing to accept that she produced a “waste of resources”, and is adamant that she’ll come into her earth bending soon enough. She’s just a late bloomer. No other option is acceptable. There is no other option, not for a Sinclair. But she’s not. Enid knows this without a shadow of a doubt, can feel it in her core that she’s not an earth bender, and she fears what will happen when her mother finally accepts this fact.

    Summary

    “Is it always this loud?”

    Enid closes her eyes, letting the cacophony of her fans wash over her, and smiles. She tilts her head, opening one eye to look down at her girlfriend –fiancée– and has to bite down on her tongue to muffle the little coo that tries to escape her throat. Wednesday looks positively miffed, her brows furrowed adorably and an almost imperceptible pout on her lips.

    “This is pretty mild, actually. Since it’s been some time since I last performed live I asked Yoko to book a smaller venue. You know, to get used to it again.” she offers her hand to Wednesday and proceeds to yank her fiancée close once the smaller hand comes to rest against her palm.

    Wednesday immediately relaxes against her side, practically going boneless and forcing Enid to shift so she can take her weight.

    “It’s different from your concerts, isn’t it?” Enid murmurs, pressing her lips against Wednesday’s forehead, and letting them stretch when she feels the soft skin move up and down.

    Summary

    Enid could not, for the life of her, look away.

    Bianca spoke. It didn’t matter. Enid couldn’t bring herself to hear a thing. Everything other than Wednesday Addams was irrelevant, it dissipated into the void, ceasing to exist.

     

    [ Or, in Paris 1979, Wednesday Addams, now an internationally acclaimed cellist, and Enid Sinclair, now the face of avant-garde fashion, reunite unexpectedly after an unresolved romance and years without contact due to a rupture in letter correspondence. ]

    Summary

    Catra is there when the new She-Ra is annointed, when she hears that battle cry again, when the stranger in front of her turns into the ghost of a memory.

    The new She-Ra doesn’t look like Adora, and maybe that’s disappointing, but maybe it’s easier. When she turns, she is taller, mightier—but an imitation of someone Catra knew, loved, lost all the same. Gold traded for silver hair that glistens like opal against the light of the Sword of Protection’s runestone.

    She-Ra eyes Catra, blue and just as bright as she remembers, as if she’s sought her out amongst the crowd of strangers.

    As much as she wants to, Catra cannot look away.

    -

    She-Ra, a study in reincarnation: birth, death, and rebirth.

    Summary

    In the end, it's surprisingly easy for Gideon to accept the fact that Harrow is a vampire. But the desperate worry she felt during Harrow’s disappearance? The feeling of affectionate protectiveness that wells up in her chest as she looks at Harrow now? The aching urge to brush aside the strand of black hair that falls across Harrow’s forehead? 

    That’s going to be a bitch to deal with.

    Summary

    The woman at the bar has been pretending not to watch Vi for the last hour. Usually, Vi would be the last person to object – the woman is around her age, with sharp, focused eyes and a mouth Vi would love to get a begrudging smile out of – but it isn’t the first time she’s seen her. Not just in The Last Drop, either. The woman always has that same, calculated focus, and is constantly glancing down to write in the notebook she always carries.

    Summary

    “What’s the last thing you remember?”

    Catra stares at her with narrowed eyes. She isn’t sure she can trust her, or anything, at this point. At the same time, though, she feels like she doesn’t have any other options. The Fright Zone is conquered. She has nowhere to go. “... Activating the Portal. And then I woke up here.”

    Adora sucks in a quick breath. Catra’s eyes dart over to her—she looks like she’s about to be sick, white-knuckled and pale.

    Scorpia’s brows knit together. “Catra, that happened over five years ago.”

    ...

    Catra loses her memory. She struggles to find her place in an unfamiliar world, somewhere between hating Adora and loving her.

    Summary

    Adora dances through the strands of time programmed into the system. The first week, she jumps forward just a year or two — 2042, 2043, just before the breakup, back when they were still happy. In 2051, she sports the short, choppy haircut that was popular at the time. In 2066, it’s long, and dyed at the tips. She’s twenty two, over and over and over again, each weekend spent experiencing that age right on the cusp of adulthood as she weaves in and out of time periods, searching for Catra.

    In the summer of 2044, she wanders past a sports bar and sees her own face, sweaty and breathless in an interview. Adora remembers this video — it was taken just before she received her first Olympic gold.

    Adora keeps walking. There’s no way Catra would choose to be here.


    ________

    Adora has never had much interest in the Etheria program, a virtual reality simulation in which those on the verge of death and dementia can relive their glory days, dancing side by side with the consciousnesses of the deceased — but when she runs into a familiar face while visiting a dearly departed friend, she finds herself tumbling back into a romance she thought she had lost decades ago.

    Summary

    “Let’s make a bet.” 

    Catra straightened, ears perking up. She liked bets. She liked winning them.

    “If we win the game tonight, you’ll go to the dance with me tomorrow.” 

    Laughter ripped from Catra’s throat. She tossed her head back, fangs bared in open-mouthed giggles. “Wow, you really don’t want to go with me. The Rebels kick our asses every year.” 

    “That’s not true!” Indignation sparked and died in Adora’s blue eyes. “Well, we almost had them last year.” 

    “Almost isn’t winning, Adora. Besides, if we don't win,” asked Catra, shuffling to fit her arms into the sleeves of Adora’s letterman as discreetly as possible, “what’s in it for me?” 

    Adora blinked. “What do you want?” 

    You.

    Not that she was stupid enough to say that. 


    ______________

    In just a year, high school senior Catra has overcome everything the universe managed to throw at her — a manipulative parent, a broken system, a ruined friendship. If only she could get over something as stupid as a crush.

    Summary

    Adora is staring out into the distance, looking up at the sun, her eyes wide and guileless. Everything about Adora is guileless. She is as easy to read as a cloudless sky. Of course, they didn’t have cloudless skies, back in the Fright Zone.

    Adora has never faked anything in her life. Catra, a practiced liar, can’t parse exactly how, though they grew up in the same place, Adora became what she is: a hero, even without the sword.

    Summary

    They’re out in nature right now, “cell service doesn’t work out here,” Aster had said with a teasing smile, like she’d deliberately taken them away from Squahamish so they can be alone, away from friends and family and other prying eyes, like they can be in their own little world, half-naked in a hot spring—

    Wait, what.

    The hot spring scene, but different. (And by different, I mean gayer.)
