Summary
“We’ll take it as it comes, alright? Together.”
Together. Laudna felt the spark of that word travel from Imogen’s palms to her very core. It was a powerful thing to be wanted, to be tethered to another by choice.
She allowed that word to tie itself to her ribs like a piece of invisible twine that snaked out and looped itself around Imogen. That connection felt tangible, realer and more present than anything the universe had given her in decades. It, like Imogen herself, felt warm and comfortable, like floating weightlessly in a hot spring, or laying in a field of wildflowers on a summer afternoon.

Summary
The messages start off stilted and formal, small pieces of paper attached to the collar of her beloved cat. Then, they go crazy, emojis and doodles and... is that glitter?
And she really doesn't have any time for this - striking up a weird pen-pal correspondence with two total strangers - but Rumi just can't help being drawn towards these two mysterious women who take such good care of her cat.
OR
Rumi accidentally ends up sharing custody of her cat with Mira and Zoey. The three of them become pen-pals through messages delivered via catmail to coordinate how to take care of him. It's silly and weird. Awkwardness and feelings happen.

Summary
Casting helped distract from the memory of Laudna’s eyes looking at her in confusion, from Laudna, dreadful in her murderer’s mourning veil, from the smooth skin between her ribs where there should have been a jagged scar.
Imogen didn’t know where she was. She had to focus on the where of it all, couldn’t contemplate the nagging fear that where should not be her greatest concern. She didn’t think about the unstable marvel of Ashton’s brain. She didn’t think about her body moving out of time with itself. To even consider it was impossible.
-
Imogen falls through a hole in the world and finds herself trapped with a wife who doesn’t know her, a future imperilled, and no way to get home. A time travel AU.

Summary
Her unsteady glance about herself doesn’t catch on a blue damask evening gown, but everything is only a blur of unfocused shapes and bright colors. She draws in a stuttering gasp, and then another, as gradually her surroundings begin to resolve themselves into a bewilderingly comfortable living room and the oddest assortment of people she has ever seen. ... They all look worn and bone-weary, but alive with expectant joy. They are all staring at her intently. They are strangers.
--
33 years ago Matilda made a dying pact in the arms of her murderer. Now that pact lies sundered by a lightning strike, and her soul with it. Waking again in the arms of loving strangers who seem to regard her as family, she tries to put together the pieces of the life she can't remember and what she means to the people around her.

Summary
“Oh, sweetheart,” Laudna hears her murmur, extraordinarily tender, “what did they do to you?”
Don’t worry, Laudna wants to say, half-delirious. She reaches out and brushes her fingers against Pâté’s skull, the smooth bone, the crooked joints, making sure he’s whole. I’ve had worse.
--
Laudna gets hit with a Contagion spell, and Imogen doesn't leave. In an unlife like Laudna's, only one of these things is surprising. Set pre-campaign.
