Summary
The radiance of the sun’s rays that had awakened her as her body had been resting messily on the left side of Carol’s bed couldn’t compare to the radiance of watching Carol now – right there before her – writing with avid concentration and such beautiful, unwavering focus.
That particular light was brighter than morning itself.
And this precise moment was the perfect opportunity to make Carol understand even a small fraction of the happiness that awaited her in the Joining. Zosia was determined to do everything within her power to make her happy. They would try – truly and thoroughly – to show her what that future could hold.
(or to simply put: a glimpse of Carol and Zosia’s first night and first morning together after their kiss.)

Summary
Just a slow burn Bartender AU
Carol Sturka is a sad (possibly pathetic), usually drunk, grumpy 53 year old author. She spends 4-7 days a week hanging out at the local lesbian bar ‘The Hunnycomb’. Where she flirts, drinks and crushes hard… on the Bartender.
Zosia Wydra is that bartender. A ex model that is all smiles, hopelessly in love with Carol, and absolutely terrified of loosing a friendship. To make matters worse, she promised her best friend (Koumba) that she’d bring Carol as her date, but problem is… they aren’t together… yet.
Can they get their act together and finally go after what they want? Or will Carol’s insecurities from her past get in her way? Will Zosia finally takes what she wants?

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
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.

Summary
Yennefer has been a member of the Thanedd's Wolves for nearly ten years. She desperately wants to quit, but perhaps her boss Geralt doesn't entirely have her best interests at heart. When she meets Tissaia during an adrenalin filled morning, she's overcome with shock and awe. Tissaia, an internist who seems to have her life perfectly in order, inspires her to restart her life and become the person she wants to be - but all is not as it seems and the road is long and filled with many horrors and challenges for both of them.
This story explores some heavy themes such as anger, murder, both committing and being a victim of (sexual-) violence, PTSD and abandonment. It is written from the perspective of the characters who may not always have and/or use the right words. Please mind the tags.
