Summary
As she is now, Vaggie knows she won't be able to defeat Lute on her own. As pathetic as it might feel, evasion is her only option.
But if it means she'll survive and get to see her friends again, get to witness Heaven and Hell make peace, and hold Charlie in her arms again another day…
She'll stoop as low as she needs to, until she feels that even cowardice is justified enough to be righteous.
[If Season 2 episode 8 had gone differently...]

Summary
Everything fell apart so suddenly. First, the ship was attacked. Then Catra and Adora started arguing. And now Adora is quite literally being hunted—and unable to turn into She-Ra to properly defend herself.
How could it have gone so wrong so quickly?
Of course, Catra knows the answer. Just as Glimmer and Bow had known the answer, and tried to warn her.
The jacket. If Catra hadn’t destroyed Adora’s stupid lucky jacket, none of this would have happened.
(In other words: A fashion-forward Catra attempts to dispose of Adora’s crusty-ass Horde jacket. Chaos ensues.)

Summary
“I’m interviewing you to see if you’d be a potential candidate for my rehabilitation idea. If you don’t live under a rock, you’d know that Hell is overpopulated—specifically the Pride Ring with Sinner demons. And the exterminations are… brutal,” she bit out, “senseless murder… these are my people. Some of them find a new life down here, some of them start families and make friends. I want to give them the opportunity to better themselves, and find a way out of this ring. It’s not fair.”
“Fair?” A harsh scoff from the one before her, “Darling, we’re not here to be fair.”
Charlie is given a rather impossible task by her father in order to contact Heaven for her project—she has to redeem one of Hell's most unforgivable sinners.

Summary
Vaggie was slowly adjusting to the new life she’d chosen for herself—one without the warmth of Charlie’s arms or the comfort of her friends’ familiar voices. She told herself this was what she deserved. After everything. After her. Her days blurred together, consumed by endless shifts at dead-end jobs, barely scraping together enough for rent and whatever passed for food these days—plastic, tasteless, but cheap. Somewhere along the way, the angel who had caused her fall faded from her thoughts. Or maybe she had just forced it all into some quiet, locked part of her mind. Survival left little room for memory. But when she suddenly finds herself face-to-face with the very angel she’d buried in silence, the fragile balance she’d built starts to crack. And just like that, everything shifts again.

Summary
“I want to - ” Lute reconsiders her words - “I’m going to keep training you, personally.” There’s a sharp light in her eyes. “I’m going to make you the best exorcist in the army. I’ve scheduled out a detailed training regimen, specifically tailored to you. And for you, and only you, I’ll be…encouraging.” Both of Lute’s hands are on her shoulders now. “Your kill count will double next extermination, I’m sure of it.”
“What about…everyone else?”
“They can handle themselves for a while. They’re not important.”
“And I am?”
Lute encounters an internal conflict at this. “Yes. Or…no. But - yes.” She nods to emphasize her final decision. “Yes, you are.”

Summary
Catra didn’t want her revenge. She didn’t want to try and stumble her way back to a person that didn’t care about her the same way she had cared. She didn’t want to break her own heart any further. So she stayed. She stayed hidden in the woods, and then later moved to hide in Thaymor where everyone adopted her. But she never left. She stayed in the place where she could relive the most horrible moment of her life every day.
She stayed right where Adora had left her.
A Canon-Divergent AU told by the perspective of several villagers and by Catra’s own perspective, inspired by Taylor Swift’s “Right Where You Left Me” starting the moment that Adora and Catra separated in Thaymor. Because all of Taylor’s songs can fit Catradora. All of them.
