    Summary

    Colin Shea is a goddamn gift. Or: five times Colin reminds Ally how awesome she is just by being himself, and one time Ally reminds Colin that that's exactly what love is.

    Summary

    Charlotte Heywood and Sidney Parker were not friends. In fact, it could be said they really, really didn't like each other.

    Can two weeks on summer holiday change that?

    -

    Or: the 'enemies to friends to lovers' trope rears its mighty head in this modern AU.

    Summary

    It's the middle of the night and Cal is restless.

    Cal doesn’t think he can explain himself out of this. Neither can she. It’s as if he’s caught in a landslide, scrambling for purchase among the downward force of mud and rock - yet instead of death prickling beneath his fingernails and casting him into the shapeless abyss, it’s Merrin pulling him free and bringing him back from the brink.

    Minor spoilers for Fallen Order.

    Summary

    There’s only three feet of hallway between Nick’s room and Jess’s. So when she takes up with Sam, Nick can hear everything.

    He says, “This isn’t upsetting at all.”

    He doesn’t mean it.

    (Set early in S2, as the sexual tension between Jess and Nick builds — along with his resolve to do something about it. Canon-adjacent, with some liberties taken, timelines shifted, and deviations made. Inspired by the idea at the bottom of this post from @kyra’s Tumblr, found while backreading her genius #newgirlmeta tag.)
