    Summary

    It’s too subtle for anyone else to see. But Jess isn’t human either. Something about the way Lupe throws the ball is a little too good, like Lupe is just barely restraining from perfect.

    Also, the baseball cracks a little when it hits the fence. Jess hears it happen and sees the corner of Lupe’s mouth curve up, ever so slightly. Lupe’s teeth are brilliant white, and her canines a little elongated. Those fangs peek over her lip.

    Jess startles. She gets it if no one else does. But she shakes her head, and under her breath, says “Fucking vampires.”

    Summary

    It’s just how her family has been seen, for generations now. Everyone’s a little different, a little weird, too knowledgeable about the wrong things, and it draws suspicion even though they’re just a bunch of forest loners who keep to themselves. At least the earlier generations were respected as the apothecary or the herbalist or the healer, the farmers and the carpenters and the blacksmith, and they were needed even if they weren’t wanted, even if nobody made eye contact.

     

    So the store is quiet, mostly just judgmental glances through the windows Jess has stopped cleaning the smudges from, because there’s no point putting up a good front, and it takes time away from more important things. Last year, a walking tour pressed up against the windows like they were looking for ghosts. Well, let ‘em.

    Outcast Jess who makes organic soap and longs for companionship... and then Lupe arrives.

    Summary

    Jess is slumped in her chair, her head thrown back with her eyes closed and mouth wide open. Stuffed inside are at least a pack’s worth of cigarettes that Lupe put there. Right as she sticks the last one in, Jess suddenly sits up, gasping for air. Lupe definitely doesn't pay attention to her open-mouthed smirk as she palms at her mouth to wipe the saliva that had formed.

    “How many?” Jess asks.

    “Thirty. You win.”

    ..........

    A series of short Jess and Lupe scenes mainly inspired by Troy and Abed from Community.

    Summary

    She and Jess are friends. No matter what. Even when the evidence seems pretty damn compelling, it doesn’t mean anything. They’re friends.
     
    But she’s never had a friend like Jess.

    Five times Lupe tries to convince herself they're still just friends, and one time they definitely cross the line. And then a 100k epilogue.

    (Jess and Lupe inventing friends with benefits? It's likely.)
