    Summary

    "By the way, how does that work? You coming here when I call. Do you just... pop in and out of existence, or something?"

    "It's like a magical tether," Lexa explains, ostensibly hesitant. "When you say my name, I feel a pull - right here, in my chest," she says, drawing a circle around the skin over her heart. "Which is strange in itself, seeing as I no longer possess a beating heart. I can't explain it, but I feel compelled to be wherever you are."

    "So it's not just me," Clarke says slowly, a hopeful expression taking over her previous frown. "There's something more to you and I, isn't there?"

    (or: Clarke is a seventh year student. Lexa is one of the Hogwarts ghosts. There's a connection between them that Clarke doesn't understand, but she is determined to figure it out.)

    Summary

    ‘You hit me in the face. So not only am I the best choreographer in the world, you owe me. And I need you to chill out.’ Anya came to crouch beside Lexa and squeezed her shoulder bracingly. ‘You’re the best. We all know it. And if you dance like you’re scared all the time, you’ll lose that. You have a gift. Don’t screw it up, not now, not like this.’

    (Lexa is a ballerina back from injury. Clarke is a fashion designer commissioned to do the costumes. Anya is a choreographer who thrives on awkward interactions.)

    Summary

    Lexa is 95% certain that the girl that comes into her coffee shop each morning is a witch. Whether it’s the tattoos that she swears move when she sees them out of the corner of her eye or the way the girl’s hair changes color if she looks long enough (not that she’s staring), Lexa is positive something strange is going on.

    Summary

    They’ve had enough doses of fame: screaming (and totally dedicated) fans, a surprising number of fansites and blogs, papparazi, lack of privacy. But all they really need and want is a piece of reality. Even if it only lasts for fifteen minutes.

    Or: Clarke and Lexa might be falling in love and the whole world is watching

    Also featuring Band!bromance of Anya, Lexa, Lincoln, and Roan (AnLexRoColn?)

    Summary

    they pretend to have a relationship because of simple misunderstandings, amongst under things. (it's clarke's idea.) it starts out fine, and lexa realizes that she actually is kind of in love with clarke, but then simple misunderstandings turn into huge misunderstandings, and well—

     

    one of the helping teachers approaches them with a gentle smile. “you’re jamie’s parents, yes?” she asks, her eyes glancing at the couple before returning down to the clipboard she’s holding.
    clarke blinks, “oh, we’re not—”
    the young woman stills and looks up, “you’re not? you’re not here for jamie?”
    “well, yes, we are, but—”
    “oh, right then,” she dismisses clarke with a quiet chuckle.
