Summary
"He looks himself up and down. The jeans aren't ideal. He'd kill for a tie, or at least a pocket square, but he's pulled off bolder than this. His gaze jumps to Beckett. She's perfect, of course. Tailored today, and on the severe side, but perfect. He grabs her wrist, lacing their fingers together while she's too shocked to protest"

Summary
"Her desk is pretty much clear these days, and when a gift bag or wrapped box mysteriously appears, it's almost become its own thing. One-upmanship when somebody finds a baby thing that's spectacularly ugly or useless or inappropriate, and the name Heliotrope has all but faded from memory. It's for the best. Even if he's a little wistful, it's almost certainly for the best."

Summary
"The flowers are easy enough, once she lets them be, but she's at a loss with the other thing. She really ought to donate it somewhere. Or regift, except she doesn't know anyone, does she? She gets the occasional, obligatory invitations from cousins and high school friends she hasn't seen in forever, but she doesn't go. And it's too lovely, anyway. Too pretty and chosen with too much care, even though it was a joke. It's too personal."

Summary
"However much she's winding herself up, it's relief to have him near. He's stretched out on his side, his body not quite flush with hers, though he bends his knees and shifts his hips, aligning himself to her contours, dipping his head to press a kiss to her shoulder and whisper good night like always, and it's such a relief."

Summary
So, because CoraClavia is a terrible person, she forced me—FORCED ME—to write a number of ridiculous stories where Caskett have a daughter named Madeleine (who has imaginary friends—siblings—named Heliotrope and Jacquard, who are impeccably dressed throughout all their adventures). This cropped up tonight. Wut?
