Summary
Ahsoka had brought her to Shatterdome once her body had healed, a long two years of rehab and recovery, and she had pushed herself through simulations and copilot candidates until she had been deemed unsuitable for a return to active duty, too locked into the grief of her lost copilot to let anyone else into the drift with her. Grounded. Useless.
One look at Shin Hati, freshly arrived in Shatterdome to be matched to a new copilot after her uncle and copilot had ascended to a leadership role alongside Ahsoka, with her pale hair and pale skin and pale eyes, angular and striking and unwavering, and Sabine's carefully-constructed equilibrium ruptures into seething, scalding hatred.

Summary
It was entirely unfair, Alicent thought, that on this day (a day where she was hungover, had no make-up on, was sweating to the point that she could feel it beading on her temple and upper lip, and her shirt was sticking everywhere) she would come face-to-face with the most gorgeous woman she had ever seen.
“Hi,” the object of Alicent’s frustration said amiably, standing behind the till in the Student Union’s coffee shop. “How are you?”
In which Alicent Hightower drinks coffee, makes small talk, and really, really fancies her favourite barista.

Summary
Pyrrha looked at Camilla with a question in her eyes, got some unspoken response, and added: “Also, I resent the implication that we're not already a real family. We have an absent father, somewhere between one to three kids, and are all fucked up to hell. What else do you need, the picket fence?”
“Well,” Nona said, looking mournfully at the sniper blinds, “it would be nice.”
On New Rho, public perception forces Nona's household to make their ambiguous bonds a little less ambiguous. Or: Pyrrha and Camilla get fake married.

Summary
And even if getting Rhaenyra in as a soloist was a staggering show of nepotism, she was still the best concert pianist on the planet. It was like when Dmitri Junior recorded Shostakovich’s second. You could get mad about it for a bit, but it was ultimately fair game. Alicent had already reached all these conclusions because Viserys had spoken to her weeks ago about programming the Concerto, which only had the unwanted effect of giving her time to turn it over in her brain like a particularly nauseating Rubix cube. Each solution of the puzzle led her to the same conclusion: she would be seeing Rhaenyra imminently, and there wasn’t a damn thing she could do about it.
After ten years apart, Rhaenyra Targaryen re-enters Alicent's life for a set of solo engagements with her orchestra. Things go about as well as expected (not very).

Summary
it's a tale as old as time — inseparable as children through everything thrown their way, before lines get blurred during uni, and then things fall apart during uni, and then a line gets drawn after uni. the sharp kind of line, with teeth. the 'i never want to see your face again' kind of line.

Summary
Harrow kept her eyes on the horizon. "Do I disappoint you, honored wife?"
Gideon was starting to think that 'honored wife' was a placeholder for 'fucking asshole' or something similar. "Not at all. I think more girls should aspire to be gremlins when they grow up."
[God has been absent for centuries and BoE conquers the Houses. To solidify their claim, they have the daughter of Commander Wake marry one of the House officials.]

Summary
In less than a week, Gideon would be surrounded at any moment by goggling children and fawning women, and their interactions would consist of Gideon winking at Harrow from over the heads of her entourage as she took endless selfies. It was excruciating to watch, but at the moment, felt preferable to watching Gideon awkwardly scratch her head and ask “How’s stall set-up going?” as if it would ever be possible for the two of them to have a normal conversation.
****
It’s Harrow’s last year selling bone jewelry at the Dominicus Renaissance Faire before she finishes her PhD. Which means one last summer putting up with Sir Gideon, the obnoxious knight that’s been a thorn in Harrow’s side for the past three years. Except, Harrow made out with her at last year’s end of season party, and things have only gotten more complicated since then.

And then Jade turned, bent down on one knee, and said with bravado she didn’t have, “Kit Tanthalos, will you do me the immense honor of being my wife.”
The crowd erupted.

Or; Jade attempts to rescue her best friend from a marriage she doesn't want... by proposing, and then having to get married. Make it make sense.

Summary
My family were heading to the Mother's Gate when we were attacked. I was the only one who survived.
Jade grew up believing this story, told to her as far back as she could remember. Her first great constant in life was Tir Asleen, the kingdom that saved her, the haven of her parents' hopes, and the place that gave her a shot at a life that was more than just survival.
This is a story about what happens when a girl tries to build herself on those foundations, and about what parts of herself will stay standing after all the truth comes out.
But, because the other great constant of Jade's life has always been Kit the-menace-of-Tir-Asleen Tanthalos, this story is ALSO about five times that Kit made Jade blush on their journey from best friends to lovers, and the one time Jade finally got her back.

Summary
Sophie leaves another message for Jane: "I still haven't decided either way, but if we're doing this, you can’t stay in the PSA. If I'm keeping it. You have to come home."
***
Jane replies: "I’m not discussing this on a potentially insecure channel, but I will encourage you to use your demonstrably excellent memory to recall how it affected you to see your mother held in His Majesty’s custody at a young age."
***
Sophie says: "Is this some kind of Freudian argument? Because let me tell you, you rock that standard issue jumpsuit way better than my mother ever did. Or are you saying it would give any child of yours a complex? Like, she’d grow up and only have the hots for convicts like you? Because that’s a risk I’m willing to take. There are worse things my hypothetical daughter could do than bang a felon."
***
Moreau says: "Sophie, you have got to stop flirting with Jane about this. I get it! You’re hormonal! But it’s distracting her from getting any work done, so try and put a lid on it before I have to confiscate her comms, okay? And please take this seriously. You know what’s waiting for her on Cassandra."

Summary
Caitlyn Kiramman, handsome, clever, and rich, with a comfortable home and happy disposition, seemed to unite some of the best blessings of existence; and had lived nearly twenty-six years in the world with only the Hund sisters to distress or vex her. Or, wait—It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single Kiramman in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of the newly hired groundskeeper.
*
Regency-adjacent AU: after the loss of both her father and the family groundskeeper, Caitlyn is summoned to her home estate from the questionable pleasures of town. Rumours abound of the unsavoury sort taken on at the Kiramman estate, and Caitlyn finds herself face-to-face with a woman she has not seen that last decade.

Summary
“Your car.” Powder said, a thoughtful pout to her face. Her eyebrows raised slightly. “If you make my sister dateable, I’ll help you finish that car.”
Caitlyn stared back at her, ears burning, at the absolutely absurd request. No one, no one on this green earth, could make the infamous disaster that was Powder’s sister dateable. It was absolutely ridiculous to think anyone would want to date the girl who insisted her birth name was Violence no matter how anyone prettied her up. It was a doomed project and she should say as much.
“You got a deal,” she said instead.Teen!Caitvi but make it a 00’s romcom

Vi nearly missed what she had said because that voice. She knew that voice.

Sure, they’re fun every once in a while with her sister, but good god, she can’t stand dealing with randoms who don’t know the heal priority.
