    Summary

    Lara looks so lost, so miserable that Sam can’t stop the next stupid thing that slips out of her mouth. “I mean, it’s hard enough to get over you without you reminding me you’ve got, like, a legitimate twelve-pack.”

    And Lara’s laughter, so bright and startling, draws echoing giggles from Sam, deflates the suffocating tension that had been building between them for months. Sam gives in, lets herself sink forward to rest against Lara’s body for just a moment.

    “I don’t want you to,” Lara breathes into Sam’s hair after a long, silent moment. “I don’t want you to get over me.”

    -

    After months of no calls and no texts, Sam comes home to find Lara waiting for her in her apartment.

    Summary

    "There's so many more than last year," Caitlyn says absently.

    "More what?" Vi asks, still patiently, indulgently still under her touch.

    "Freckles," Caitlyn says, and shifts her grip to the nape of Vi's neck, urging her down so Caitlyn can kiss her face, dragging her lips softly, reverently over the new constellations of them blooming across Vi's face. They're faint, light brown, a beautifully chaotic spread stretching across her cheeks, over the slightly crooked bridge of her nose, curling up under her eyes.

    -

    Caitlyn is determined to show Vi how much she loves every part of her.

    Summary

    The manor on the hill has been empty for as long as Violet can remember. Her little village has been abandoned by the nobles who were supposed to protect them for even longer. Rumor says the manor house is cursed, so haunted by the fallout of the Shimmering War that not even the monsters that prowl the woods of Vi's home will set foot on the grounds. Tonight Vi means to prove those rumors false and get what she's owed.

    Summary

    After ten years in Stillwater for a crime she didn't commit, Vi breaks herself out and goes home. Her homecoming doesn't go like she thought it would.

    Two years later, she's out of control and out on the streets. She's now a champion pitfighter, a raging alcoholic, and completely on her own. Despite her family's best (and desperate) efforts to help, Vi's on a one-way track to ending up either dead or back in prison.

    At the same time, Caitlyn arrives in the undercity to collect data and information for her thesis. She starts her research from a local bar called The Last Drop, which puts her right into Vi's path. Vi might have been out of her family's home for years, but she's still not going to let a topsider put them in danger.

    Canon divergence (everyone lives!), enemies to lovers (barely, the lovers aspect happens fast), angst, trauma, addiction, and also fluff and humour (because these things can co-exist!)

    Summary

    Vi looks out at the diner, casting a glare around the dining room. There’s only a couple tables of people, mostly lawyers and law clerks working late at the nearby courthouse taking a late night break.

     

    There. A woman sits at the far end of the counter with long dark hair, some kind of navy suit with a starched pale blue shirt. She’s looking directly at Vi, an expectant look on her face.

     

    Vi curls her lip as she turns around with the plate and looks down at it. It looks fine. They’re fucking eggs. She plucks the cigarette from between her lips and stubs it out in the eggs.

    Vi is a line cook, and Caitlyn complains about her food.

    Summary

    Caitlyn observes from the wall as Vi runs the routine, then comes over. She touches Vi’s lower back. Pushes, gently, guiding Vi through a rotation of her hips. Vi’s lower half lights up like a fork in a socket.

    “It comes from here,” Caitlyn says. “Not so much the legs. Try it.”

    Vi misses Caitlyn’s hand when she steps away. She follows the phantom push until she’s completed the sequence.

    Tilting her head, Caitlyn says, “Better, but you’re stiff. Do you feel sexy?”

    Vi’s been surrounded by gorgeous women every day, women with bouncier hair, longer legs, more graceful relevés. And instead of admiring them, she’s competing with them. So, no. Vi does not feel sexy.

    Summary

    “I don’t like being touched below the belt, so I would rather give than receive. I understand if it’s too much. I don’t want to pressure you into something you don’t want.” Cait puts some steel in her voice, but Vi can sense the nerves underneath. She wonders how many times Caitlyn has had this conversation before.

    “Cait, I don’t mind,” Vi reassures her, “but I need you to know that I got my sex ed in prison, so you’re going to have to tell me what’s good for you.”

    A short and sweet exploration of Vi and Caitlyn's relationship.

    She took vows to serve God. Violet took orders to protect her. But nothing in scripture prepared either of them for this: the want that bloomed between altar and flesh, between command and obedience. In the Vatican’s most sacred halls, something unholy begins to burn.
