Summary
“Have you used it today?” Four asked sometimes. “Your power, I mean.”
She asked this like she asked if Jattawa had eaten, or how her day had gone – what she was studying at the moment.
A few years into a relationship with her soulmate, and Jattawa still can't get used to the feeling of being seen.

Summary
With twenty days left until her thirtieth birthday, Regina has never felt more set-up for retirement: married to some multi-millionaire, living in a fully staffed, large and luxurious house she has, more or less, all to herself – what more could she have wanted?
Every night in her dreams, however, she finds herself living out one life-defining day per year, age ten to thirty. Time hopping between her ugly past and beautiful future, she soon finds that there is far much more she can control and change from within these dreams than she thought – especially when she finds herself falling for the one she hurt most of all.

Summary
Two girls from opposing families, natural enemies, set aside insecurity to make room for the other.
Both vowing the other will never know the full truth of what they are.
Or, where one good guided meditation, a little bit of misguided confidence, obliviousness, and a personal bias for awkward, pretty girls, (plus a series of other very minor coincidences) can go a long way.

Summary
She throws her bag into her bike’s wire basket and turns to Adora with a raised brow. “Do I know you or something?”
“I —” Adora tilts her head, considering. “I don’t think so? Maybe we’ve seen each other around town.”
Catra’s eyes travel from Adora’s feet, up her legs, all the way up to her eyes in a slow crawl. She’s gripping her bike’s handlebars, frizzy curls escaping her updo and surrounding her face. “I think I’d remember you.”
*
or: adora would recognize catra anywhere.

Summary
The picture is of Wei Ying, that much is clear. It’s of a lot more of Wei Ying than Lan Zhan is used to seeing. He supposes that, technically, Wei Ying is dressed. It’s a bare technicality, since one of Wei Ying’s hands has rucked up his black tank top practically to his collarbone, showing a long expanse of abdomen and one nipple. Sweat beads on his sternum, catching the light like jewels. His other hand is--Lan Zhan feels his eyes widen, as though unable to look away from a train wreck--on his hip, one thumb tugging down the waistband of a pair of red briefs. Wei Ying is biting his lower lip and looking directly into the camera, sultry, his eyes dark and inviting. His erection is obvious, outlined against the red of the briefs and framed carefully with the hand on his hip. Lan Zhan’s brain goes wildly, screamingly blank.
Or: Lan Zhan accidentally finds his best friend's OnlyFans account and has an ongoing emotional crisis.

Bookmarker's Notes
Is it normal to cry over a fanfic therapy session???? Probably not, but holyyyy is this fic written so unbelievably well? Every chapter somehow manages to hit the perfect balance of fluff, angst, fashion, queer culture, neurodivergency, therapy and good, fun, sexy times—I felt so strangely represented by this story in so many ways. Like YES sometimes there is just that moment when you're like "huh. the stuff that i've been through is maybe not so entirely normal, perhaps this objective outsider is entirely correct and i might have some Stuff™ to figure out" and this fic captures those moments perfectly. I love the sex work love and positivity and it's... actually really got me thinking about how I could potentially try and find ways to advocate in real life. But anyway, yep. I don't think I'll ever shut up about this one.
