    Summary

    The one where the orphaned heiress to an infamous cult who believed that a man cured death is just trying to escape the shadow of her past with as little friction as possible. And the daughter of the man who the aforementioned death cult thought cured death is trying to do the same thing.

    Independently of one another.

    OR: The one where Gideon and Harrowhark are neighbors in a shitty apartment complex.

    Summary

    There was no one flesh for Coronabeth. No one end. Instead she was a warden, a bodyguard, a jailer. In the afternoon she walked one half step behind Judith and at night she slept with her back pressed tight to Judith’s, or with her arm slung over Judith’s waist, her nose nestled into Judith’s braids.

    It was the longest they’d ever spent in one another’s presence. It was the closest they’d ever been.

    And nothing ever changed.

    Summary

    Mizu was hired. At first Akemi’s fury was incandescent. This was not the desired outcome. She tried her father again, and her father said, “Isn’t this what you wanted?”, and she fumed, teeth clenched, face hot. She tried to sneak out and Mizu caught her, grabbed her by the back of the neck—literally, the back of her neck, squeezed until it hurt. Pushed her back toward the house. Akemi screamed, “You can’t treat me like that!”, and Mizu, cold and soulless, said, “Like what?”, and Akemi said, “Like I’m a dog!” And Mizu said: “Can’t I?”

    *

    Mizu is hired as Akemi's bodyguard. Akemi takes offense.

    Summary

    "Don't act like you don't know what I'm talking about. If all you’d wanted was a fuck buddy, Caitlyn, I wish you'd have left me alone."

    What?

    "And I get it, I do! You're not the first, you won't be the last! I know what women think when they look at me, I know what they really want or expect of me. You were different, though. You took your time, you made me care about you, about being with you. You made me think it actually meant something."

    Vi suddenly holds her breath, her eyes wide and terrified. Caitlyn's own frown has vanished just as swiftly, her confusion turning into cautious wonder. Time stops, the room fills with sounds of heavy breathing, hearts wildly beating, and quiet realisation. Vi hadn't meant to give so much away.

    ––

    Or : After a serious injury that abruptly marks the end of her biathlete career, Caitlyn crosses the Atlantic to become a PE teacher in the school where her childhood best friend Jayce teaches. There she meets Vi, a charming but lonely English teacher who has yet to figure out how to let anyone in.

    Inspired by the track "Hey Stephen" by Taylor Swift.

    Summary

    Dear Gideon and/or Kiriona and/or Incoherently Screaming Lunatic,

    If you’re reading this, it means you don’t know shit about fuck. You are mega-confused, you are thoroughly discombobulated, you are feeling like your recent memories have all just fucked off and melted out of your head. Well, congrats, you figured it out. That’s exactly what happened. Hooray! You’re severely brain damaged! After all, why should Nonagesimus have all the fun, am I right?

    Summary

    Nova & Co Private Investigations is the best damn detective agency this side of the River—and strictly a one-woman operation. No one can match Harrowhark’s sleuthing instincts, commitment to uncovering the truth, gritty aesthetic, or willingness to sleep in the office every night. But when Harrow gets shot (again) while working to expose corruption at City Hall, her so-called friend Palamedes goes behind her back to hire her some muscle.

    The person who shows up on her doorstep is mouthy, annoying as hell, and distractingly attractive: exactly the opposite of what Harrow needs. But when an heiress with a mysterious corpse and a hefty purse takes a liking to her new bodyguard, Harrow is forced to keep Gideon Nav around.

    The good news: Harrow only has to work with Gideon until she’s cracked the case. Once she’s busted this thing wide open, they never have to see each other again….right?

    Summary

    In the Grim Darkness of the far future there is only Regret.

    Sister Marianne, veteran of Armageddon III, heroine of the Order of Our Martyred Lady, is commanded by the Inquisition to infiltrate a squad responsible for the loss of an ancient artefact holy to the Adepta Sororitas. She alone must determine whether the squad under Sister Superior Héloïse, on a mission of retrieval and redemption, have been tainted by the powers of heresy and chaos, or divinely inspired by the God-Emperor Himself.

    This is the POALOF / Warhammer 40k crossover that the world definitely never asked for. There is not much scope for fluff in the forty-first millennium as a rule, but I shall do my very best.

    I shall also do my very best to update weekly.

    But no promises on either.

    Ave Imperator.

    Summary

    Griddle,

    While only a fool would claim absolute comprehension of life and death (and He is now, as you say, ‘space dust,’), I can assert with confidence that you, Gideon Nav, are not dead.

    I have provided a short bibliography of relevant works on post-mortuary thanergy should you wish to self-study on the topic, but given that the number of ‘titties’ in those works is negligible (but perhaps interestingly, not ‘none’), my assumption is that you’ll bin it immediately.

     

    Know this, then. I would know in the farthest reaches of my soul if you were dead.

    Harrowhark Nonagesimus

     

    -----
    A post-Harrow the Ninth AU. Gideon and Harrow find themselves splitting a timeshare in Harrow’s body, and like so many fools before them, trying to work out their feelings in the mail.

    Summary

    You had your body and I had mine, and it was a miracle. Your hands against my face were a miracle. The rest of your meat attached to your hands was a prayer answered and a promise broken, but we were flush and gasping and alive, and Harrow—I really thought you might’ve kissed me then.

    But I felt it happen. The way your breath suddenly stilled, and your body locked up beneath mine, remembering. How with splintering gentleness, you pushed me away.

    “I’m so sorry,” was the second thing you said upon waking.

    The first thing had been my name.

    Stranded in a safehouse on an Edenite moon, Gideon and Harrow try to put themselves back together.

    Summary

    Toni's always hated Shelby, so when Shelby gets drunk at Fatin's birthday party and throws herself at Toni out of nowhere, it all starts out as some sort of weirdly fucked up power play, because shouting matches with Shelby are going to be so much more satisfying for Toni when they both know that Toni rocked Shelby's world that one time in Fatin's guest bathroom.

    It's supposed to be just the one time, until it isn't.

    It's supposed to be just sex, until it's not.

    Summary

    ”This is Vi,” Powder speaks up before Vi gets a chance. “She’s my sister.”
     
    “You think I’m your sister,” Vi corrects her. The kid rolls her eyes. Caitlyn looks almost like she’s frowning as her eyes dart between them, brow furrowed but her mouth is still very slightly curved upward; definitely a politician.

    “Well,” she says, “that’s certainly a development.”


    When a runaway claiming to be family shows up at Vi’s doorstep, what should have been a simple task bringing the kid back ends up changing her life in ways she never expected.

    Summary

    “You shouldn’t be the one asking me that,” Vi murmurs into her neck, and the vibration makes her shiver. “Caitlyn, you can’t be okay right now. I can’t even ask you that, not now. I know I can’t.”

    Caitlyn chokes, running her hand along the rough expanse of Vi’s undercut. “Ask me.”

    “I can’t.”

    “Please,” Caitlyn begs. She’ll catch me, she thinks, almost on reflex. “Please ask me.”

    - - -

    Following Jinx’s attack on Piltover, Caitlyn and Vi pick up the pieces of their shattered world in the wake of civil war and the threat of a Zaun occupation. Grieving but determined, Caitlyn agrees to team up with Vi once again to bring Jinx to justice, and heal their uncertain relationship.

    What will they gain along the way?

    What will they lose?

    Summary

    Caitlyn Kiramman is an instructor, principal dancer, and on the board of shareholders at Piltover School of Dance, a renowned dance academy owned by her parents. She's spent her whole life training, working, and doing everything right, but something has changed. Her love for contemporary dance and traditional form is failing, and she's willing to try anything to rekindle her love for dance.

    Vi is a coach and soloist at Lanes Academy, a nonprofit urban dance collective dedicated to bringing art to the streets of the Undercity. When Caitlyn decides she wants to delve into the world of hip-hop and street dance, Vi finds herself at the crossroads of years of trauma brought on by the Kirammans and their school, fighting feelings for the one woman she can't let herself have.

    Will they find the music in each other, or will they crumble?
