    Summary

    Beatrice has had a very difficult year, not that she would admit that to anyone (even herself). Her best friends have convinced her to take some time away from work, soak in some sun, and get back in touch with herself but relaxing proves to be a little harder than it looks – especially with someone like Ava around.

    Summary

    In the ebbing daylight, the planes of Emma’s face are cast in shadow; she’s golden, a fairytale heroine come alive, and Regina marvels that she’d found it so easy to slip between the cracks of New York City. It seems so transparently obvious, that Emma is made for something more.

    3B rewrite: Regina arrives in New York to restore Emma's memories. Things don't go according to plan.

    Summary

    The thing about monster hunting, Emma discovered, is that contusions and concussions are pretty standard. Someone had suggested she wear a helmet to face a draugr. Nasty, rotting things with the strength of a bull. She assumes that is not a suggestion she took seriously considering that a doctor is currently shining a light on her eyes.

    Or when Emma Swan gets amnesia and must take her wife out on a blind date.

    Summary

    El Mayarah. Her family’s motto. Stronger together. But how was she supposed to be stronger together when she was alone?

    She was trying. Every day, she tried. She made the effort to get up, to face her life with as much grace as she could. She was one of the last survivors of her people, potentially the last, and she wouldn’t dishonor her people’s memory, her family’s memory, by giving up. She wouldn’t fail her parents, wouldn’t give up until her last promise to them was fulfilled.

    Kara Zor-El arrives on an Earth where Superman doesn't exist. Without anyone to intercept her crashed pod, Kara is found and captured by the government. Twelve years later, her last promise to her family remains unfulfilled. Depressed, alone, and in hiding, she runs into a green-eyed scientist looking to redeem her own family name.
