Hayden Pike's Terrible Unfortunate Moment of Brilliance by booksplease
Fandoms: Heated Rivalry (TV)
22 Feb 2026

Summary
Something terrible and profound passed through Hayden instantaneously, like a bare elbow on the ice, or one of the girls sneezing directly into his face. “Oh my god,” he said, not hearing the words until they came out of his mouth. “He’s in love with fucking Rozanov.”
Jackie’s full body flinched. A good and correct reaction, Hayden thought distantly. He was so glad he’d married her. “Baby,” she said. “What the fuck do you mean?”

Summary
It starts when Roy goes over to his sister's house and is met by Phoebe at the door, smiling and giggling in a Richmond jersey.

It isn't until she turns around to lead him to the kitchen that he realizes how wrong things are.
Or: Phoebe's new Richmond shirt says Tartt on the back. Roy has some feelings about it.

Summary
Fiyero Tigelaar has stood at the top of a lot of cliffs and been to a lot of parties.
Galinda Upland feels like a party. She's beautiful and perfectly expected, fun in the ways that never come close to the core of him, safe from touching him in a way that matters.
Elphaba Thropp feels like a cliff’s edge, like the promise of the drop.
Fiyero’s stood at the top of a lot of cliffs but never been brave or drunk enough to make the jump.

Summary

Summary
Every season sees Cressida spending more time on the wall, watching the dancers with an expression calculated to be the right amount of wistful but never jealous. She stands under the lights at the angle best positioned to draw attention to the gleam of her hair and her jewels and her gown, and she speaks to the young women who will make the best contrast to her, and she watches and she tries to learn.
Women adjusting their gloves and looking up at their dance partners with a smile that seems to run through their whole bodies; women sweeping around the ballroom, shivering almost imperceptibly when their hands meet their partners’; women clustering together on the edges of the room, giggling when the right man approaches them. Cressida’s attention gets caught on these smiles like a necklace on fine netting. The other young ladies tilt their heads, expose the long elegant lines of their necks, flutter fans to draw attention to their chests—all tricks Cressida learned early and learned well—and Cressida can’t look away.

Summary
"She had no shortage of validation these days. Hell, it was probably the mortification of her exit from Runway that had fueled her magna cum laude from Harvard law, and the subsequent appointment at Pearson Hardman. Her job was to win, so she won. Frequently. This would be no different.
And if Miranda saw her do it—well. Icing on the cake. "
