Summary
Laudna is a children's librarian who loves doing story time, but unfortunately the kids find her more scary-scary than fun-scary. So it's very rare for her to be able to do that.
Imogen runs an outdoor school where schools in Jrusar send grades of children to learn about nature and get some learning done outside of a traditional classroom. Finding someone to lead a story time with the kids has been a bit difficult, so Imogen reaches out to the local public library.
This is a modern AU, so they don't have magic per se. This is generally going to be from Laudna's perspective, with a lil Imogen sprinkled in for flavour. I'll add more tags and characters as they become relevant.

Summary
“Nothin’ has to be different. Nothin’ has to change.”
It’s Laudna’s turn to have the corner of her mouth curl and quirk. “But hasn’t it already?” she asks, fingers reaching out and tangling with Imogen’s.
“Is that a bad thing?” Imogen’s voice pitches low, and Laudna feels something pulling, settling, low within her in turn.
Laudna shakes her head, mouth dry and voice gone. Imogen speaks for her.
“Kiss me,” she says. Asks. Pleads.
It’s too much, and Laudna has never been good at denying anything that Imogen wants.
Imogen tastes like oranges.
or: imogen helps laudna clean up before she buys some fancy clothes.

Summary
Laudna locked the bedroom door behind her, the air between them thickening almost immediately. Unspoken anticipation for this moment had brewed between them like a storm all day, and she could almost swear she felt the hairs on her arms stand on end as the tempest on the horizon inched ever nearer.
aka
Imogen and Laudna stay at Zhudanna's house the evening of the kiss, and things reach a boiling point.
enjoy!

Summary
In which Imogen ponders her orb, and things just get a little out of hand.
And into something else.
(AKA: A very ridiculous venture with absolutely no stakes, and a lot of cleanup.)

Summary
“If you wish to have a quiet life in a cozy cottage in a field, raise horses and just be, no gods or fates or destiny can keep you from that. Can keep us from that.”
After their conversation, on the eve of the solstice, Laudna reflects. With Pâté’s help, she figures some things out.
