  1. Summary

    This series was originally going to be two small fics but the first one has ended up like a runaway freight train so I guess now it's going to be a series of fics whose plot will be drawn from the songs off the album "Sigh No More" by Mumford & Sons.

    Serve God, love me, and mend.
    This is not the end.
    Live unbruised, we are friends.
    And I'm sorry.
    I'm sorry.

    Sigh no more, no more.
    One foot in sea, one on shore.
    My heart was never pure.
    You know me.
    You know me.

    But man is a giddy thing.
    Oh, man is a giddy thing.
    Oh, man is a giddy thing.
    Oh, man is a giddy thing.

    Love; it will not betray you,
    Dismay, or enslave you — it will set you free.
    Be more like the man you were made to be.

    There is a design, an alignment, a cry
    Of my heart to see
    The beauty of love as it was made to be.

    — Mumford & Sons

    Summary

    “Bullshit,” Jinx calls at the tv. “No way they’ve been hooking up since day two and nobody noticed.”

    “They’re all in the same fuckin’ campsite,” Mylo laughs. “No way.”

    Caitlyn tenses. Without thinking, she sneaks a peek to her right. Vi’s jaw is locked. She must notice the movement– that or she's just as stupid as Caitlyn– because she glances over, too. For a brief second, they make eye contact, and then Caitlyn is snapping her gaze forward again, flushing. Fuck.

    It’s gonna be one hell of a season.

    //

    The mission? Act normal around the girl you used to hook up with, and have a nice season. Caitlyn? Failing the mission.

    Summary

    Vi is the head barista and part-time manager of The Last Drop, a coffee shop and café in Piltover. Caitlyn is a coffee-loving PhD student at the nearby university who spends every weekday working from her favorite table at The Last Drop. Despite an obvious attraction, the two women are immediately at odds with each other the moment their paths cross. Over time, they'll navigate past their differences and form a unique arrangement.

    This is an enemies to friends with benefits to lovers arc set in a modern coffee shop/café AU. I am writing it specifically at the request of my wife, who has a thing for barista-centric fanfics and loves Caitlyn/Vi. Chapter titles are quotes from Arcane.

    B, I love you so much. This is first-and-foremost for you.

    Summary

    Jaina Proudmoore is the most powerful mortal mage of Azeroth, and she is sick of every other Horde Warchief turning out to be a despot like clockwork. When Sylvanas Windrunner wins her mak'gora against Varok Saurfang, Jaina's patience comes to an end - and so does Sylvanas' reign.

    Sylvanas is spared execution so that she will not become a martyr to her loyalists and to Horde sovereignty, but she is demoted and placed under house arrest - and Jaina herself will be the banshee's watcher. Because if there is one other thing Jaina is sick of, it's the collapse of every community she tries to nurture, her seemingly poison touch. But this vigil over a single banshee seems like something she can manage without it wilting and crumbling in her hands.

    Cut off from her resources and forced to exercise what power she still has through intermediaries, Sylvanas spends her days mostly alone under Jaina's watch. She worked to protect the Forsaken against an evil that lurks beyond Death; she tried to save her people from eradication; she tried to draw out and crush their enemies. Now, unable to pursue these enemies real or imagined, what is left for her to become?

    Covers a divergent BFA and Shadowlands timeline.
