    Summary

    Veronica Sawyer had been bounced around the country for most of her high school life, Westerberg is just the most recent stop in the long line. This time she promised herself she would keep under the radar; no picking fights with jocks, no causing scenes in the lunchroom, no reason for anyone to notice her at all. Just make it through the year, and she could move on to any college she wanted. That's all she needs to do... Which is becoming increasingly difficult when she keeps running into Heather, and Heather... And Heather.

    So much for staying under the radar Sawyer.

    Summary

    The client hadn’t really requested anything at all; their emails had been almost overly polite, if not jarringly formal, and had selected only the most vanilla options on the questionnaire she provided. Certainly a far cry from the standard practices of her usual clientele, but this one had paid upfront and picked this expensive hotel, and Mira’s fees are dear enough on their own that she had been coloured intrigued. 

    Mira takes a left down the hallway after leaving the elevator and finds herself at the door to the room. She doesn’t steel herself—doesn’t need to. She can handle anything. Has handled most things. Mira swipes the keycard and lets herself in. 

    The person sitting on the bed is probably the last thing she expects.

    In which Mira is a professional, Rumi is socially inept, and Zoey is also there. Let's hope nobody catches feelings.

    Summary

    “You're really good with him,” Rumi comments, watching Zoey administer a needle to his hind leg like it's nothing more than a feather touch.

    Zoey preens under the praise, blushing. “I really love animals,” she explains. “I feel like I’ve always seen eye to eye with them, more than I ever have with people. It's why I went into the field.”

    “That's fair,” Rumi nods. Her gaze shifts to Derpy, who is staring at her. Judging. “I feel like Derpy and I never see eye to eye.”

    Zoey snickers at that. “Even though he's your cat?”


    In which Rumi takes Derpy to the vet. Too bad Derpy isn't even hers.

    Oh yeah. And she's scared of animals.

    (The vet AU no one asked for.)
