    Summary

    She's just nervous. She always thought the emphasis on sex, on losing your virginity, like it was some big deal, was dumb. It feels like a big deal now. It matters. Everything with Maggie is going so well, and she has no idea how sex is going to go, and it makes her nervous.

    Summary

    "She blinks and she sees Maggie’s lips brushing against the blonde’s and she clenches her jaw, hard, hates herself as she feels tears sting at the back of her eyes.
    It’s stupid to be upset, she knows that – stupid and irrational and she barely even knows Maggie, but she’d just… she’s not used to putting herself out there, not like this, and it’s not like she’d been asking Maggie out on a date but it still aches, it still feels like she’s missing out on something." The aftermath of 2x04, and Alex's process of figuring herself out.

    Summary

    Maggie was just hoping to finally have a stable enough job that allowed her to continue helping aliens and maybe finally meet someone who would decide she was worth sticking with. She wasn't really expecting her new job to involve suspicious acting scientists that happened to be related to her new boss's girlfriend.

    All Alex wanted to do was work in her lab, finish this pseudo-undercover duty at L-Corp, destroy Cadmus, and find her father. She didn't have time for nosy ex-detective security chiefs.

    Summary

    “...Is that a Yelp review?” She asks, skeptical.

    “Worse.” Snow says, “It’s a Yelp listicle.”

    “...a what?”

    “An article but in list form because readthrough numbers go up when content is broken into smaller, easily digestible and shareable components.”

    “...what?”

    Snow starts talking about above the fold content and Emma doesn’t understand why everyone is so obsessed with Yelp, why Snow knows so much about internet marketing, or why she can’t seem to get some coffee in the morning without it being a federal fucking issue.
