Summary
"I think you’re the only person I can stand looking in the eye," Hermes had told her once with a watery smile. Then he had laughed at himself for calling her a Person, and Meteion had laughed because he was laughing, and Hermes never made that mistake again. Now she is just Meteion, or Entelechy, or the lost little sounds he makes in his sleep when the dreams come.
[In a fit of rage, Meteion mirrors Hermes's self-destruction in the worst possible way.]

Bookmarker's Notes
An excellent character study of both Hermes and Meteion and the fraught dynamic between them.

Summary
“You’re playing a dangerous game, Fortune,” she warned, heat thrumming through her blood for all Fortune’s boldness irked her.
“I like games,” Fortune said mildly, her hands sliding languidly up Katarina’s thighs. She paused at the blades sheathed there, lightly running her thumbs over the edges, making Katarina twitch. Fortune winked. “Get the feeling you do too.”

Summary
They stay that way for a long time, Catra’s face tucked into Adora’s shoulder, Adora gently cradling Catra’s head. Adora is careful not to hug Catra too hard or make her feel restrained, anticipating the moment that Catra will start to pull away — but Catra doesn’t. She hangs on so tightly it hurts, her claws digging through Adora’s jacket and into her back, latching into her like she did when she was a kitten and didn’t know how much her claws could hurt. Adora tries not to wince, tries not to move a single muscle, worried that if she does the spell will break and Catra will struggle away, appalled at having shown weakness.
But Catra doesn’t let go. And so neither does Adora.

Summary
"“Oh my God,” Catra said, barely above a whisper. “You’re rich as fuck, aren’t you?”
“Guilty,” Adora said, cringing a little. “Sorry. I thought Glimmer told you.”
“I’m gonna fucking kill her.” Catra shook her head, trying to wipe the stunned expression off her face. “I can’t believe she set me up on a blind date with a goddamn millionaire.”
“Yeah,” Adora said awkwardly. “Oops.”
“It’s—” Catra shook her head. “Okay, Glimmer aside, how would you paying for my tuition even work? I mean, we—we’ve only been on one date, and it’s not even over yet.”
“It’s a crazy idea,” Adora said. “I know. Just—just forget I said anything.”
Maybe it was the buzz of alcohol, or maybe it was the shock of finding out she was on a blind date with a rich person, but Catra couldn’t stop herself from blurting, “Well, I didn’t say no.”
A beat.
Adora blinked, looking up at her. “What?”
Or: Catra is a physics PhD student struggling to balance life, work, and loans. When her friend sets her up on a blind date, she doesn't expect it to be with the most attractive millionaire she's ever seen. They work out an arrangement.
