    Summary

    With both their commanding officers gone, the remnants of Catra's old squad find themselves turning to an unlikely ally: Entrapta.

    Entrapta doesn't understand much about the rumours which now follow her (they are numerous and explicit) or the power structure of the Horde (which she's openly flaunting) but she'll never turn down a chance to make some useful friends.

    Summary

    The Horde doesn't get a lot of good gossip and most of the time it's too terrified to share it.

    Sometimes, however, the instinctive need to dish becomes too great.

    Summary

    When he looked across the room though, he saw Catra leaning back, tail lashing wildly behind her, staring at Adora like she was the first star to grace the Etherian sky. Adora was leaning forward, eyebrows slightly pinched, and looking at Catra like she alone could tell her why that was.

    Kyle had a feeling that even if he got up now and knocked into every single bedpan on the way out the door, they wouldn’t have noticed him. They probably hadn’t realized he’d been in the room in the first place.

    OR

    if you’re in the same room with catra and adora you are automatically the third wheel

    Summary

    Catra clenches her fists. She won’t let it happen. She won’t endanger their future. “We can’t change anything. We’ll just have to wait, and do everything the same way we did before.”

    Adora grabs Catra’s shoulders. Her grip is so tight, it’s nearly painful. “But do you realize what that means for us? Playing along. Letting things go the exact same way as before–”

    Catra’s expression darkens. “I know,” she says, struggling to keep her voice from trembling. “You’ll have to leave. We’ll have to be enemies again.”

    ***
    Years after defeating Horde Prime, Catra and Adora inexplicably wake up in the past—on the day that Adora first found the sword. If they're going to make it back to the present, they'll have to relive their past from start to finish, pretending to be enemies despite being in love. Despite being married. Despite knowing exactly how the story ends.

    But it's not easy, waging war against the person you love most.

    (now read the sequel, immemorial)!
