    Summary

    Enid became aware that Wednesday was her soulmate after her scent changed. Though she had not planned on telling her -and pushing Wednesday's boundaries once more- Wednesday has always had a way of working things out on her own.

    But the main clue? Well, that would be Wednesday's sudden love of Enid's multicolor jumper. Heinous.

    Summary

    In the week since the bonfire incident (which she was absolutely not thinking about), she’d run into Rio approximately seventeen times.

    Not that she was counting.

    There was Tuesday, when Agatha had taken Nicholas to his first surf lesson. Rio had been teaching the advanced class, wetsuit clinging to her like a second skin, and Agatha had absolutely not watched her demonstrate proper form on the beach.

    (“Your coffee’s getting cold,” Wanda had said smugly.

    “Shit.”

    “And you’re drooling a little.”)


    OR: Agatha has a mid-life crisis and bails for LA. That’s what people did, right? Terrible breakup, mid-life crisis, pack up your sixteen-year-old kid and move to California. Completely reasonable sequence of events.

    Then start sleeping with the hot surfing instructor, royally fuck up keeping it casual, and try your damndest not to fall in love. Less reasonable sequence of events. But whatever.

    Summary

    “I’m not jealous,” Rio says. “What do I have to be jealous of? I’m almost done with my dissertation and that little idiot can’t even receive feedback on a chapter without needing a ‘debrief’ and Agatha to hold her hand.”

    “No, I agree,” Jen says, sitting back. “You’re really taking this with complete equilibrium. It seems that you’re dealing with it in a super-healthy, totally emotionally responsible way.”

    Summary

    “Fate etched your demise in the fabric of eternity itself,” Rio says, sweeping her arms open; spiders skitter from the dark creases of her cloak. “It was written eons before your birth. Now – the time has come to – ”

    “The end is nigh, sinner!” says a familiar voice behind her. “It is I, Lady Death! Ooga booga!”

    If Rio had eyes right now, they’d be twitching. Slowly, she turns to take in the unwelcome (if increasingly-frequent) sight: Agatha, holding a Ghostface Halloween mask over her ghostly face. Draped over her head in a paltry imitation of Rio’s cloak is a sequined black shawl – Billy’s, Rio guesses. She knows that the kid’s been trying his hand at drag recently.

    “Oh, this is so embarrassing,” Agatha says, flicking a finger in Rio’s direction. “One of us is gonna have to change.”

    ------------------------

    Just when a ghostly Agatha decides she's ready to give into Rio's centuries-long pursuit, Rio swears that she's finally done with the pursuing.

    Summary

    “She won’t even admit that she’s gay for a New York City Ballet dancer. You think she would go for you, Rio Vidal of Cobb, Oklahoma?” Jenn raises an eyebrow, “IT service provider who plays Elden Ring in her spare time.”

    “Maybe.” Chirps Rio. Hope does, after all, spring eternal.

    *

    Or,

    Rio goes from IT service monkey to fucking her very beautiful, very poised boss in a very short period of time. And then, of course, there’s the aftermath.
