Summary
“Could I get your number?” they ask, as if they’re not still a completely faceless enigma that’s been making one-sided passes for two weeks now.
“So I’m supposed to exchange messages with someone who I wouldn’t even be able to pick out of a police lineup if this ends up being just a long con to get me to join a cult?”
To her shock, they place an elbow on the bar, lean over, and lower the hood.
“Does this increase my chances?” they ask with a goofy smile.
They're cute. Like 90s teen drama cute. Like Catra could see them singing fucking annoying pop songs outside her window cute. That’s not good. This person is absolutely trouble.
“Fuck,” Catra breathes out. It kinda feels like someone just kicked her right in the gut in a thrilling way. “You couldn’t have the decency to make this easier by being ugly?”
Catra finally meets the woman of her dreams/nightmares, a goofball blonde with big captain save-a-ho energy. She's easy going, gets Catra's jokes, and likes her band, even though it's pretty shitty and Catra's sabotaging them from the inside. It's just a shame that the girl is already competing on a reality show for 20 women's hearts.

Summary
Untitled Rich Catra Story is the love story of what happens when one driven and incredibly successful CEO walks into her regular coffeeshop and meets eyes with the most beautiful, dorky barista in the world.
Since graduating high school and launching her company, Catra has worked tirelessly to make Darla Industries the success it is today. She loves her job and works hard to take care of her employees, but has taken little time to have fun and be like any other 20 something. Enter Adora with her puns, smug smiles, and kind heart to help her slow down and enjoy life. Meanwhile, the barista can't believe it when the woman she's been falling for turns out to be a multi-millionaire. The idea of being taken care of and spoiled for once in her life takes some getting used to, but Catra is more than happy to help her get there.

Pick Me Up (And Lets Build Again) by ObsidianThorne
Fandoms: She-Ra and the Princesses of Power (2018)

Summary
It's been eight years since Adora left Weaver's group home, leaving her best friend Catra behind as well. Now Adora finds herself living in Whispering Woods, a quiet country town in the middle of nowhere. A peaceful and quiet place where she can heal, or so she thought. She wasn't the only one who decided that living in a small town was a good idea. Catra owns the only bar within a thirty-mile radius along with co-owner Scorpia and it doesn't help that the only thing that makes Adora feel any better nowadays is alcohol. Adora keeps the last eight years of her life under as much wraps as possible and Catra still hides some of her own secrets.
This is a bit of a role reversal in a way. Adora is the one who struggles emotionally while Catra is the more stable one in their shared adulthood.

All of my goodness is gone with you now by alterocentrist
Fandoms: Portrait de la jeune fille en feu | Portrait of a Lady on Fire (2019)

Summary
Marianne is an art consultant with an interest in history, which she has been channeling into her side project: uncovering the story behind a painting of a woman on fire. When new evidence emerges, Marianne finds herself on a journey of small discoveries.
Inspired by this post that grey wrote on Tumblr, and by the novel she mentions in the post, Possession by AS Byatt. The title is from "Shrike" by Hozier, which I discovered on a Portrait-inspired Spotify playlist entitled "the poet's choice".
