Summary
Catra ignores her feelings for Adora, pushes them down far, far away, deep inside herself. Her reasoning is that they’ve been friends for a long time, so why ruin it? Why fix what isn’t broken? Why push for more when what they have is just enough?
It’s been working for a long time, but as humans, we’re flawed. We slip up. Catra slips up from time to time. Her icy heart thaws and it bursts with love and light.
Why? What reason? Adora. Always Adora. Adora’s laugh. Her smile. That glint in her eyes that she gets when she’s happy, when she’s laughing, when she’s excited. Catra’s armor cracks and she falls for Adora all over again.
or
Every time Adora laughs or smiles, Catra falls in love with her all over again.

“Yeah, we can make everyone wait to find out. Scorpia and Entrapta can’t keep secrets and all those other fuckers deserve some payback.”
“They do,” Adora replies.
All their friends have been pushing Catra and Adora to get together, but it’s gotten obnoxious. When the two become lovers, they decide to keep it a secret, but that doesn’t mean they can’t tease their friends.

Summary
“Catra…?” The woman’s voice cracks. It’s lower in pitch than she remembers but it’s familiar. It’s her.
“What the hell are you doing in here?” she growls, raising her voice.
“The woods. They brought me here,” the blonde replies weakly.
“What the fuck,” Catra mutters. “You don’t get to just show up in my house out of nowhere!” Her fur stands up, tail puffing up.
“I-I thought you were dead!” Adora yells back, her eyes tearing up.
or
Adora gets chased out of her town and finds refuge in the Whispering Woods. The magical forest leads to her a cottage owned by a familiar face. It’s been years and it’s complicated, but maybe, they can figure it out.

Summary
Life's not bad for Gideon. She's got a nice predictable job, good friends, a hot roommate. The worst thing is having to deal with her roommate's shitty sister and their terrible friend, but its worth the tradeoff.
It was simple, and for Gideon that was good enough.
But things hadn't always been so great. Someone died and the events that followed shattered her world, but you'd never know it talking to her.
Then one day a familiar face returns and turns everything upside down. Gideon thought she'd moved on but then doubt began to creep in...
Please read the tags. I'll add them as I come across them. So please review them from time to time <3

Summary
“I mean the reason I want my own room and bed is because I want to be able to- you know. Flick one out. Jerk off. Whatever! Not all of us can get off on watching documentaries about death practices in other cultures and reading books older than our grandparents, okay?” Gideon sighed, avoiding Harrow’s gaze. “I like sleeping next to you too. I don’t mind continuing to do that, but I want-”
“To masturbate, yes, I heard,” Harrow replied.
Or: Gideon moves in with Harrow, and she falls in denial. Eventually, she finds her way to in love instead.

Summary
“One whiteclaw and one vodka cran,” Harrow’s voice rang out, slicing through the crowd with all the welcoming shock of a newly bitten lip. “And leave the tab open.”
It couldn't be; Gideon was wide the fuck awake and nightmares can't happen when you're on your feet, right? She couldn't have heard her childhood nemesis, the vindictive little troll who’d inflicted so much cruelty on a younger, less wary Gideon- she'd imagined it. Had to have imagined it.
“Nav,” Cam said, voice lower now that the band- Gideon didn't remember the name so she referred to them internally as The Mopey McGee’s- had finally packed it in. The crowd’s noise rose to a dull roar around them, and Gideon hoped that her auditory hallucinations had come to an end.
“Griddle?”
Oh fuck oh fuck oh-
Not a hallucination.
Not a hallucination.
-Leaving the past behind is a harder task than Gideon thought it would be, especially when that past is an angry little emo intent on ruining her life.
