Summary
Vi spends a moment watching, taking in the way the light that streams out from the ballroom dances over the creases of Caitlyn's uniform, the stray strands of her hair come free from the ponytail, the long fingers that keep a loose grip on the glass of bubbly almost done. She drinks in the slightest upturn of Caitlyn's lips, luxuriating almost in the knowledge that Caitlyn is having a good enough time to not have spotted her yet.
The moment does not last.
That one eye flicks up to her and now that smile grows.
"Ten years," Caitlyn says, voice drifting over. "Yet I learn a new thing about you every day."

Summary
Vi came to Piltover Warden University with two titanium rods in her spine, a double major nobody thought was a good idea, and absolutely zero intentions of getting distracted.
Then her design class assigned her the volleyball team's rebrand, and suddenly she's spending six weeks courtside watching Caitlyn Kiramman spike balls hard enough to echo through the building; Campus star, ace student, and either the most insufferable person Vi has ever met or the most interesting one. Possibly both.
Vi hasn't decided yet.
Neither has Caitlyn, for that matter.Bookmarked by TwoBitsrang

Summary
Vi has been through enough pain to last lifetimes. So when Caitlyn has an opportunity to provide for her, she’ll take it.
And maybe it’s wrong to feel so utterly pleased about the fact that she can give Vi things others can’t but Caitlyn can hardly be blamed. After all, it’s not like anyone wants to find themselves in the position of another person being able to give their lover something they can’t. So yes, it leaves her quite pleased to please.
Come to find out, however, it also leaves her incredibly turned on.
Or
Caitlyn discovers that making Vi happy gets her wet.

Summary
Carol misses those nights when she took silence and sleep for granted. It’s been two weeks since they have stopped, and the repercussions are starting to show in the sluggish way she moves about in the morning. In the headaches that remind her of the worst kind of hangover. And in the irritation she feels at the slightest inconvenience, or even at her lack of inspiration when she sits in front of a blank document on her computer.
Well, maybe that last part isn’t entirely someone else’s fault. But still, she should do something about the fucking noise.
[...]
“Well, then? Do you need something?”
Carol takes a deep breath. For the first time since moving in this awfully sleazy apartment complex, she’s about to be the wet blanket everybody hates – or maybe appreciates for the intervention, she hopes.
“Yeah,” she mutters and points to the door. “Could you turn it down? I – I’m trying to get some sleep.”
The other seems to ponder her request for a second before shrugging. “It’s not that loud.”or
a new tenant moves in the upstairs apartment. She's loud, careless, annoying. And hot. And Carol has a hard time dealing with that.

Summary
“Carol."
Zosia Bartoś has said Sturka on panel shows and she has said my colleague on Twitter and she has said "the anchor at Liberty" in interviews and she has said "Carol Sturka" the full two-word name in writing, but she has not said Carol, just Carol, since a hotel room in Cincinnati ten years ago.
"You can say gay on television.”
Someone in the audience gasps, another says oh my god too loudly into a mic that should have been dead and the room comes apart.
or
Carol Sturka is a closeted conservative anchor. Zosia Bartoś is her progressive ex. Netflix has them on a stage in 8 swing states for 4 months.

Silver Queen Verse Snippets and Worldbuilding by WanderingFan

Summary
Welcome to my Silver Queen Verse lore dump/worldbuilding extravaganza!
While I’m on hiatus, I will be posting lore/worldbuilding excerpts here that can/will consist of SQ Valyrian lore, Kervanite lore, maybe some Old World and Westeros lore. I might also post snippets or scenes from other parts/times of the universe as the mood strikes (maybe some Rhaenicent pieces too :3). Generally, I will include a poll of some kind (either asking for comments or a link to a google poll) to get an idea of what folks might be interested in seeing next.
Sorry that this isn’t a proper fic.

Summary
“You’re dressed for snow, but I haven’t seen you outside,” said the instructor by way of greeting. Carol took note of the accent, couldn’t quite place it.
“Have you been watching me?” God, she hoped there wasn’t a wedge of fry stuck in her teeth somewhere.
“I know pretty much everyone who walks through these doors. You’re not one of them.”
“So you have been watching me.”
The instructor’s smile turned bashful. It plucked at something within Carol. “Only because I had thought you were waiting for a class, or for a friend. Was I wrong?”
Carol said, “I’m here for the scenery.”
OR
In which Carol, still grieving Helen, finds herself at Angel Fire Ski Resort and making a connection with someone completely unexpected: Zosia, the ski instructor, who just so happens to be a former Olympic skier.

Summary
After the end of the world becomes a logistical problem, Carol finds herself living amidst vodka and a sky that refuses to stay dark.
Every night, the city lights go out when she looks at the stars at a specific point. Every night, she pretends it means nothing.
Zosia should be unreachable now — for Carol's own good — but instead, Zosia watches her from above, bound by the rules Carol strives to uphold and also bound by a “love” Carol seems unable to extinguish.

Summary
It’s a little funny, too—in an absolute asinine kind of way—that Zosia may not remember all that knowledge she gained from living in perfect symbiosis with the rest of the fucking world but she can remember the night Helen was sick and left Carol to fend for herself at one of those stupid publishing parties she was always getting invited to. Yeah, she probably shouldn’t have gone for the second Old Fashioned, and she definitely should not have ripped her car keys out of the valet’s hand and flipped him off while doing it, but it tickles her to think Zosia can remember the square root of that night and not four thousand, one hundred thirty.
She risks a small smile. “Oh, that’s sort of—”
“And I hate that.”
or, in between saving the world and getting the girl, Carol tries to make sure the girl does not kill her first

Summary
"Carol knows in her heart that she shouldn’t pour herself another drink. The glass is sticky enough to remind her that she’s spilled the amber liquid over her own hands at least three times, and she’s licked them clean as if wasting a single drop of her favourite poison were a crime. If anyone could see her now, they would deem her pathetic, disgusting, hopeless. The fact that she can still feel the stinging shame of knowing that she’s exactly all those things makes her realize that she’s not drunk enough."
[...]
“You’re Carol, right? I’m Zosia. I hear you’ve had quite a day.”
Carol scoffs, trying to conceal the cracks in her voice.
“And it’s not even noon yet.”or
the one where Carol struggles through loss, grief, addiction and trauma, doesn't ask for help, but gets it anyways.

Summary
The concept of suffering a separation while in the midst of the magnitude of the Joining was... disconcerting, to say the least.
Zosia had been claimed and had been discarded. But even after that, in amidst of sleepless nights soaked by whisky, Zosia was still needed – in safe doses and at safe distant – for Carol Sturka and all her contradictions.

“I’m one of the lit managers,” the woman explains.
“Yet you can’t manage to take a hint," Carol retorts. "I’m not in the mood for conversation.”
It’s meant to be rude — to get this beautiful, annoying woman to leave her alone once and for all — but instead, the corner of her mouth curves into a smirk. Carol hates how sexy she finds it. “Clever wordplay,” she commends. “You really are a writer.”
Or: After sending dozens of query letters with no success, Carol reluctantly goes to a literary speed-dating event to try to find representation. There, she meets Helen.
