Summary
Well, perhaps Catra hadn’t heard. Or better yet, she thinks Adora was joking – it’s the kind of deadpan humour that Catra loves. Maybe she’ll crack up and praise the blonde’s unwavering wit, then they both sit too close with hot tea and gay-coded children’s shows while brainstorming realistic methods of saving money. And maybe that was optimistic, but Adora has often considered herself a lucky woman.
She turns to peek into the kitchen where Catra had stilled mid-pour. Rigid.
Fuck.
Adora does not consider herself a lucky woman.
OR: Catra and Adora are poor college students. Adora suggests they share a bed. Confessions ensue.

Summary
In the private world of high fashion and paparazzi headlines, it's a practiced art to lose a piece of yourself in pursuit of more. It's made to be enticing like that. It's easy to ask for excess when all you had was less.
And when it wears Adora down, breaks down her resolve, taking it apart and apart until there's nothing left, she meets her again.
Catra.
"You need to learn how to be selfish. To take what you want." She trails a finger from her neck to her jaw. It's intimate. It's devastating. "Don't you want me, Adora?"

Summary
“What do you do?” Catra asks. “On the ranch, I mean.”
“Pretty much anything that needs doing,” Adora says with a shrug. “I help out with the animals, fix fences, dig holes, paint walls. And I’m always happy to help out our guests, so if you need anything, I’m around.” She flashes Catra a grin that reveals perfect teeth. “‘Sides, I know the property better than anyone. If you ever want a tour, I can show you the best views we’ve got.” That grin turns a bit devious, and Catra’s eyes narrow, wondering if Adora offers all this to every guest.
“I’ll keep it in mind."
(Catra rents a vacation house on a ranch in Montana. Everything kind of spirals from there.)

Summary
“Have you looked into how student benefits for our college work? ‘Cause I might have a better idea.”
“Yeah, well, we didn’t qualify for any scholarships, so that’s out of the question,” Catra starts off, bitter. “We don’t have any disabilities that are medically certifiable, nor are we related to anyone who does. We’re not related to anyone at all, really, but that doesn’t seem to matter.”
“It sucks,” Adora agrees offhandedly, blood rushing in her ears. “Go on.”
“I don’t know. Parents? I’ve kinda just skimmed the rest of the page. All the focus on family was annoying.”
Adora shrugs, trying to look and sound nonchalant. “Married couples, too.”

Summary
Her hand flew to it immediately and she could feel the slightly raised imprint of the name now on her skin, for life: the name of her soulmate. Her skin prickled over her body and a nervous cold sweat ran the length of her spine, so she took a moment to collect herself before looking down to read the name.
And when she did, her jaw dropped to the floor.
“Oh you’ve got to be fucking kidding me.”

Summary
Adora’s loved Catra longer than she can remember. This year, she’s going to do it: on Catra’s 24th birthday, Adora will tell Catra how she feels. But when her plans fall apart and Catra instead asks Adora to be her fake date to a company party, things get interesting. Will Adora find a way to adapt and tell Catra how she really feels? Or will she be a useless pining disaster for all eternity?
This is the fluffiest thing I've ever written, enjoy.
