    Summary

    Former teammates become arch-rivals when Catra and Adora enter the collegiate volleyball scene at their respective universities.

    --

    “You need to leave,” Adora mutters. 

    “What? It’s not like I’m going to see anything I haven’t seen before,” Catra teases, her arms folded across her chest while her tail lashes behind her, side to side. 

    “Fine,” Adora grunts, tugging off her jersey, “but only if we can talk about what happened at semi-finals.” That memory seems to slow Catra down, and Adora finally feels like she has the upper hand in the conversation as Catra’s tail stops swaying, lowering timidly behind her. Stripping off her sports bra and the final layers of her clothing, she can’t help but notice how Catra is staring off into some lockers. 

    “You already said everything you needed to say."

    Summary

    Bow and Glimmer convince all their friends to go with them on their honeymoon to a couple's resort - but after Adora's already paid the non-refundable deposit, her longterm girlfriend dumps her, leaving her in a bind. The friend group scrambles to find a replacement "girlfriend" so that Adora doesn't have to lose her deposit and miss out on the week of fun in the sun with her friends that she was promised - which she obviously needs now, more than ever, on the heels of her breakup - and Scorpia finds a friend of hers willing to pretend to be Adora's girlfriend so that she can get a half price vacation, even if it means sharing a room with only one bed. The only problem? This friend of Scorpia's is absolutely gorgeous... and a complete and total asshole. But they have to keep up the act, or ruin the whole trip.

    Summary

    "There isn’t a night that passes where he hasn’t had to drink himself into a stupor to get near sleep. Not even the whiskey can’t keep him in bed. His brain won’t let his body just rest, not when it could parade gory image after vile memory after terror-laden vision in front of his eyes. Hours and hours worth of them. Successful nights ended in the small hours of the morning, his back soaked in sweat and lungs struggling to fill with air. The failures began and ended with him wide awake in his favorite worn armchair.

    Kell pulls his eyes away from the mirror, dropping his gaze to the polished wood. They drop to his hands. The left was flat, steady. The fingers of the right shook, a barely-there tremor that not even the drink could calm."

    Great War AU: It is December 1919 and Arnes is still reeling from five years of war. It's country, capital city, monarchy and people are left in pieces. In the midst of a struggling recovery, Kell struggles to work through his own memories, nightmares, and injuries.

    Summary

    Holland can feel magic leaving him, like pieces of his soul, as he breathes out. He can feel it hang in the air around him, White London snatching it up and drinking it down its parched throat greedily. He lifts his hands and places them, still dusty, in his lap as he feeds White London.

    “Holland, what are you doing?”

    Holland considers turning toward the voice, but he has no need to. He knows Kell’s voice by now: clear, a thimbleful of friction, moderately deep but not as deep as Holland’s own. There it is, the way Kell speaks objectives. He doesn’t mean, Holland, what are you doing? He means, Stop.
