He was still half in-light, half in-shadow, but so was she. The covers were pooled around their legs, and the window curtains had been pulled back so that come morning, the apartment would be flooded with light.

Summary
Her first night on the ship, Adora watches Catra sleep. She charts the gentle tug up and down of her chest, stares at what once was impossible to want, forbidden from her reach.
She sits on the edge of Catra’s cot. Adora reaches out to trace the collar of her uniform, the white stained throughout with specks of blood and dirt. She rakes a gentle hand through Catra’s hair, the cut rough and ragged. She goes to cradle Catra’s face like she had on Horde Prime’s ship, to run a thumb across the sharp line of her jaw—
She stops. Maybe some things are still forbidden.
*
Adora, relearning Catra, and Catra learning to heal.
