Summary
Dr. Temult, with long, flowing purple hair and freckles that Laudna couldn’t count even if she tried. Not that she was thinking about counting her freckles, that would be an odd thing to do, and this was just an interview, they would exchange pleasantries, answer a few questions and be on their merry way, it’s not like she would even have the time to count—
Dr. Temult looks up, meets her eyes, and Laudna realizes she’s been caught staring. Crap.
Imogen is an astronaut going to the moon and Laudna interviews her for an article.

Summary
A virus that overtakes all human faculties; fascists parading around as a federal government agency; rebel groups dedicating their lives to fighting against it all; scavengers and hunters and murderers and the greatest evils in the world –
Imogen has survived it all.
But Laudna, the key to saving humanity, may very well be her undoing.

Summary
Alone time had been hard to come by lately, Imogen reflected as she trudged after the rest of the Hell’s back up the winding path through Zephrah. It’s not that she was upset that the rest of the Hells were here. She’d missed them all terribly, while they were split.
It’s just-
Well-
--
Imogen and Laudna hadn't had much time to themselves since the kiss, and they just wanted some time to figure it all out. By "figure it all out" they meant "kiss a whole bunch", and they loved their friends - they did - but these interruptions were getting a little ridiculous.
4+1 in which Imogen and Laudna's alone time is interrupted by their friends, who are varying levels of clueless about it.

Summary
Firefighters know the importance of good water pressure. Or, at least, that's what Ava would tell the crew when they asked why she always took a shower at the station.
The water pressure at Ava's apartment was shit, and the station always had hot water. So, every night, every morning, and sometimes, randomly in the middle of the day, Ava would take full advantage of the facilities.
Except that wasn't the whole truth. They really were great showers, sure, but the real reason Ava carefully planned every time she showered was what Ava was doing right now.
Sometimes, if Ava got the timing right and said just the right things, she could convince someone to join her in the shower.
So, tonight, during her second shower of the day, Ava was pressed against and three fingers deep inside one Lieutenant Beatrice Lin-Watson while the rest of their crew was obliviously watching Sharknado: The 4th Awakens across the firehouse.
Here's how Ava managed it.

Summary
...
What would have happened if Joel was the one bitten at the museum? This is an exploration of TLOU, in which Tess takes Ellie across country in search of the Fireflies. What begins as a reluctant partnership grows into something much deeper, where bonds forged in fire breathe new hope, and a chance for redemption.
...
“You don’t have to answer now,” Tess tells her. “I get that it’s a big thing to ask, but I have to ask it. I just…I want you to know you always have a choice, here. Even if we do find Tommy, and we do find some Fireflies. You’re smart, and you have great instincts. Keep asking questions. Make informed decisions whenever possible.”
“That’s not always an option when you’re a fourteen-year-old kid,” Ellie points out, sounding much older than she is.
“When it comes to your body and what you do with it, it should always be. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. Not even me."

Summary
“They hired us to try and fix this, Lilith. To see what we can do to streamline patient care, help with funding and prevent them from having to sell and disband - so that’s what we’re going to try and do.”
She stops, just before they enter the hospital, giving Lilith a hard look to let her know she’s still the boss.
Thankfully, Lilith understands and at the end of the day, she brings Lilith with her because she’s very good at what she does. “Then let’s go get started.” They make their way inside, “you just know this Dr. Silva is going to be a kook though. She probably wears wicker shoes or treats broken bones with laughter or some shit.”

Summary
“I said,” Imogen utters through gritted teeth, “Don’t. Touch. Her.”
Imogen’s entire body begins to vibrate, skin threatening to burst open, veins surging with intense heat she’s never felt the likes of before. The hairs on her arms stand on end, nerve endings alight, thrumming with energy. The air around her feels charged, like standing out in a field just before a storm.
She reaches a scarred arm, crackling with amethyst energy, forward to meet the baker’s rapidly approaching foot.
The boot makes contact with Imogen’s open palm with a blinding flash of white purple light and a thunderous boom, louder than the cabin’s collapse, louder than anything Imogen’s ever heard.
A pre-canon story following Imogen and the mysteriously musical Laudna as they flee Gelvaan and wander the wilds of Marquet.

Summary
“That’s the cat.” Beatrice said, noting the light brown coat and the mostly white fur on its belly and legs. “From the sign.”
Ava laughed a little, and Beatrice felt her mood lift at that sound. “Yeah, Halo’s the unofficial mascot now with the sign. Mother Superion is not happy about that, I’ll tell you.”
“Mother Superion?”
Ava pointed towards the corner on the left side of the back wall, where a majestic black cat sat on top of the shelves, surveying the whole cafe like a queen.

Cafe AU, where Ava and the resident cats of the Cat’s Cradle Cafe charm their ways into Beatrice’s life, and maybe even her heart.

Summary
The weeks unfold and every day, Imogen visits. Sometimes she brings more cookies, always coincidentally forgetting to take her plate when she leaves. Sometimes she asks Laudna to teach her more spells, more tricks, she calls them, in the most adorable way, and Laudna can never bring herself to say no to her.
The weeks unfold and with every brush of their hands, every lingering look, every new thing they learn about each other, Laudna finds herself, for the first time in a long time, aching for more.
or, an alternate version of their first meeting
