Summary
I might have occasionally left marks on her so that, if people were to look closer than I’d feel comfortable with, I could at least ward them off, and I might have wished, sometimes, that they knew it was me and no one else doing that to her – but biting her all over her body, while soothing in the moment, never did make me feel any better in the long run, and would only leave bruises on Sendai-san that mocked me with their uselessness for days.
The necklace, like her earrings, were always meant to mark her as mine in a way that wouldn't gradually just fade over, even if we were the only ones who knew what they meant.
But that doesn’t seem to be enough for Sendai-san anymore, and I’d be lying if I said, in full seriousness, that it was ever enough for me.
(Or: All the ways Miyagi marked Sendai, and how Sendai marked Miyagi back.)

Summary
Technically, it wasn’t a necklace, and technically, Sendai-san didn’t buy it for me. Therefore, one could say that she listened earnestly to my request to not get me a necklace for my birthday, and that I had nothing to complain about.
At least, that was Sendai-san’s excuse when I opened the neatly-wrapped box in front of me to find a collar that was way too big for any pet we might ever have, and way more ornate too. The sight of it was so unexpected, and my first reaction so visceral, that it must’ve shown on my face, leading Sendai-san to say for a second time: “It’s not for you.”
“Then what is the meaning of this?”
“Isn’t it obvious?”

Summary
“I’m a creature of habit, you know. You’re getting me too used to you.”
Sasha’s voice cracks halfway through her reply. She can’t bring herself to feel ashamed about it. “Is that a bad thing?”
“Not bad. Inconvenient.” She lies back on Sasha’s chest, ear right over her heart - and Sasha begs for it to slow down, for Marcy not to hear it. “I’m just really going to miss this.”
So Sasha feels anything but selfish, feels justified, when she pipes up and says:
“Well, you don’t have to leave.”Or: Sasha and Marcy move in together and have to deal with their longstanding feelings for Anne, along with newfound feelings for each other.

Summary
“It’s my best friend’s birthday. Well, not my best friend anymore, but - it brings back bad memories.”
“Why do you still talk to her, then?” Scorpia asks, a question Catra asks herself every year. Then her eyes suddenly widen. “Wait, Adora? Perfuma and I are catering for her party.”
Catra whips around so fast she feels her head spinning. She’s pretty sure a hiss comes out of her mouth. “What?”
“Yeah! Perfuma’s one of her friends, so it’s on the house. We need to be there before dinner to set decorations up. What did she do to you?”
“Nothing.” She’s technically not lying, but it does sound a bit defensive. “We grew apart.”
“Do you… miss her?”
Catra scoffs. “No.”

Summary
It was natural, right? To want that for herself: someone to tell her who she was, in her entirety, in her truth, whenever she forgot. For her heart to lurch forward and go God, give it to me, where do I start and then fall flat when it came up empty, like expecting a three-course meal only to end up swallowing air.
Adora had always been good at self-control - one of the perks of a life spent in service of whatever she thought was the greater good. But now this hunger had started in her, and there was nothing preventing it from developing further.
And it was all Catra’s fault.A year after the war, Adora returns to Etheria. She finds everything has changed, except the thing that really should have.

Summary
In the middle of a war most people in Amphibia still didn’t know was being fought, Newtopia sent out invitations for a ball.
All of Wartwood would, of course, be welcome to attend, but it was Sasha the king had his eyes on, his message addressed to her specifically and framed as a request for parley more than a formal invitation.The king had wanted her there, and all she had to do now was get close enough to end the war for good.
She’d probably be stuck in Amphibia forever, but there was nothing for her on the other side, anyway. Her family most likely hadn’t even noticed she was gone, Anne would never talk to her again, and Marcy -
She raised her head and came face to face with a ghost.

Summary
“I keep thinking, you know. About what would’ve happened if I’d just taken the job.”
“Well, for starters, you wouldn’t be here with us right now.”
“Wouldn’t I? I assume as the god of the multiverse, I’d be kind of omnipresent. I could see everyone, be everywhere all at once.”
“Possibly. But we wouldn’t see you.” She doesn’t think she imagines it when Marcy holds her just a bit tighter, fingertips digging into her sweater like she’s going to blow away into leaves again if Marcy’s not here to ground her.Anne and Marcy have a late night talk.

Summary
So maybe Marcy had a crush on Anne. That realization, having come seven years in the making, didn’t hit her as hard as it should have, due to the fact that Anne was her best friend, and would never hurt her, and that the years she’d spent pining were proof she could keep her feelings at bay for at least seven more, anyway.
The issue wasn’t even that she also had a crush on Sasha. If the YA novels she read were any indication, love triangles were a fact of life - and though they didn’t usually involve a girl being torn between two other girls, books were becoming more and more diverse by the day.
No - the real issue was prom was only a week away, and she held two envelopes in her hands.

Summary
“Catra hasn’t told us much about the night she proposed,” Glimmer says. “And you're going to see her tonight at the party, as well as tomorrow for the whole day, so it's in your best interest that we know how to handle any awkwardness between you two.”
Adora glances down into her cup, mindlessly swirling its contents before, apparently, deciding they weren’t worth drinking and putting it down.
“Adora,” Bow gently prompts, “what happened three years ago?”As the day of Bow and Glimmer’s wedding draws near, Catra and Adora reunite for the first time since their break-up.

Summary
“What do you mean, if angels are real? Of course they are. If we’re here in the Bad Place -”
“Then they must be right upstairs?” Catra scoffed.
Adora looked up at her friend through her eyelashes. “You doubt it?”
“I think no one’s gotten in the Good Place for over three thousand years, and we’ve never had any proof it existed at all, anyway.”Exceptionally good people end up in the Good Place; the rest of them, a flawed majority, are left to rot in the Bad Place.
When Adora is entrusted with the creation of a new neighborhood in the afterlife, she starts growing a little too fond of the humans she's meant to punish, and questioning everything she knows.A TGP AU.

Summary
“We get you to Bright Moon,” Catra recapped, “you meet with the queen, we collect the reward, and we all get what we want. Think you can pretend well enough?”
Adora looked up at Catra under her eyelashes, suddenly self-conscious. "You think they will believe me?"
Catra sneered. "Princesses will believe anything," she said, "if it sounds enough like a fairytale."An Anastasia AU.

Summary
“There’s nothing left to destroy,” the girl who’s holding Catra’s hand says. Unlike Catra, her body’s still imperfect, but her mind seems fully developed. Catra knows nothing outside of Horde Prime’s sphere, so it’s fascinating to her that the First Ones would go about it in the opposite way. “They won’t come find us here.”
Catra wishes there was a way to communicate with her, to imprint into her mind questions such as what’s your name and what do you want from me and aren’t we supposed to be enemies? But the girl keeps dragging her, blonde hair glinting under the light of the bleak sun, and Catra’s smiling.
It’s only when she’s back on the ship that Prime realizes what’s happening.

Summary
One of Adora’s hands descends on Catra’s claws - the normal, as well as the steel ones - remembering the sting. "You killed me," Adora says by way of greeting.
Catra stares right at her. "You killed me, too."
“I could do it again."
It’s all pretense. Sooner or later, if neither of them strike for too long, their programming will take over - but for now, her sword hangs in its sheath by her side as she maps out the lines of Catra’s new face, the different-colored eyes that always stay the same, the freckles on her cheek.Catra and Adora's soul bond designates them as enemies through their different incarnations. Having fallen in love, they try to find a way to break it.

Summary
“Have you looked into how student benefits for our college work? ‘Cause I might have a better idea.”
“Yeah, well, we didn’t qualify for any scholarships, so that’s out of the question,” Catra starts off, bitter. “We don’t have any disabilities that are medically certifiable, nor are we related to anyone who does. We’re not related to anyone at all, really, but that doesn’t seem to matter.”
“It sucks,” Adora agrees offhandedly, blood rushing in her ears. “Go on.”
“I don’t know. Parents? I’ve kinda just skimmed the rest of the page. All the focus on family was annoying.”
Adora shrugs, trying to look and sound nonchalant. “Married couples, too.”

Summary
“You know,” Catra reflects out loud, still saccharine in tone, “I see the way you look at me sometimes.”
Glimmer feels herself go red - out of embarrassment, or maybe because of outrage. She can’t exactly help that Catra’s hot, and she’s pretty sure she’d have to look pretty hard to find anyone who doesn’t agree. Still, Catra is hard-pressed not to let it go.
“Does your boyfriend know about it? No no no no, wait - does Adora know about it?”
“Catra,” Glimmer starts, calmly enough, “we’re not gonna hook up to get our minds off our exes.” -

Summary
After signing in with Bright Moon Productions, Adora holds auditions for her very first movie, secretly inspired by a past relationship with her childhood best friend. However, her big break is on the brink of cancellation when she can't find anyone good enough to play one of her leads - that is, until said ex walks into the audition room.
