Summary
Beatrice (unhinged, pretending to be extremely hinged) needs a date for her rich family's Christmas holiday. Ava (proudly out as an unhinged individual) wants to see what a rich person's Christmas holiday is like, and if it comes with an additional chance to fight homophobes, she's in. They've never met but they're also soulmates. Enjoy.

Summary
'it scares you because the war is over but there’s a weight to her, a vigilance and a sadness, a grief — even though she kisses you with joy and tenderness and the sure promise of forever; she had called you, easily, her life partner at an airport cafe earlier — like her brain hasn’t quite caught up with the fact that she’s safe. there is no more unfinished business: you both made it out alive.'

Summary
Recently, Ava had been watching Youtube videos on mindfulness in an effort to try to increase the percentage of her thoughts she was able to keep just in her head. That training was about to fail her spectacularly. “One of the nuns is kind of cute.”
Mary’s fingers paused mid stitch. Ava’s fork paused halfway to her mouth as her brain caught up with what she’d just said.
“Ava, what the fu—”

Ava has to spend several weeks in a church archive. The person running the archive is a nun, and also hot. She is totally normal and respectful about this.

Summary
Because it turns out the Halo can want things now, sort of. Not the way a human would, with thoughts or motivation or articulable desires. The Halo wants things the way a tree wants water and shoves a taproot through flagstone to get it, which is all well and good for the tree, but less so for the idiot trying to keep her patio intact. Unfortunately for Ava, she’s both the idiot and the taproot. The flagstone is her dignity. The water – for reasons becoming rapidly and unavoidably apparent – is Beatrice.

Devotion, Fidelity, Commitment, And Other Synonyms by morningsound15

Summary
And Beatrice is not good; she is not holy; she is not worthy of her vows. She is taking advantage of Ava’s good nature, of her warmth, of her need for physical intimacy. She knows that she is. She knows that when Ava reaches for her in the dark it isn’t because she’s reaching for Beatrice so much as she’s reaching for someone. A body. Any body would suffice. Beatrice’s body, with its racing heart and its trembling fingers, with its weak-kneed sensibilities and inability to say no, just happens to be near.
And Beatrice is not good; she is not holy; because she does not stop it from happening. She leans into it. She draws Ava into herself, she breathes in the scent of Ava’s shampoo, she revels in the warmth of her skin beneath her clothes, in the perfect way Ava’s soft curves seem to meld against her own hardness. Beatrice is all sharp edges. She is stern, she is steel.
She is weak, for Ava and everything about her.

Summary
Beatrice is standing stiffly across the room. She rolls her shoulders, rolls her head on her neck, stares down at her hands. An unfamiliar smile slides across her face-- and Ava knows all of Beatrice’s smiles now, knows the polite nun smile and the customer service smile from the bar and the friendly smile for Hans and the small genuine one for Camila and the careful genuine one for when Ava makes her laugh and the less careful open one when Ava surprises her with coffee on the rare days she wakes up first-- and Ava’s stomach twists.

She had said before, ‘so many people mix up love and possession,’ and now years later she wondered if that was the reason why they had been given so much time. That maybe Viola thought this was love. That maybe she loved this. Loved her. Loved them.

Ava would apologize but she’s not sorry at all: Beatrice is here, and Ava is tipsy, and the night is going great despite the fact that has perhaps possibly dug herself into a tiny financial hole betting on eight ball skills that she absolutely does not have.

Summary
Beatrice finds herself musing not over duty and sacrifice and God, but the truth of angels, if they can be created rather than summoned. If they can take the form of women with overeager mouths and careless limbs and eyes with a depth that beckons - a crooked finger, a spiral staircase - if they can be both human and not, both beautiful and terrifying.
Ava asks, What do you want, Beatrice?
(Tell me and I’ll give it to you. Tell me and I’ll build you a home there. Tell me and I’ll rearrange the universe to make it all fit, angels and demons be damned. Tell me it’s me. Me. Me.)

Summary
She hangs in the back, watching the various reactions unravel on the poor victims of Jamie’s storytelling faces. Some are heart-broken, others terrified, and most just curious about the likeness of the story. Dani slips next to Owen and glances at him knowingly. He smiles and leans in to whisper in her ear, “Since when did you end up at the bottom of a lake?”
“She likes the tragic ending more,” she explains exasperated, “Says it’s cathartic – whatever that means.”

Summary
‘And she is so scared because she never had a good example of parenting, and she doesn't really know what it looks like to be an adult in that way. She wonders though, if anyone really does, and you assure her you don’t have any of the answers either. She tells you that kids were never in her cards, never in her plan, but she wouldn’t mind figuring out the answers with you.’
Or, a v soft exploration of motherhood.
