Summary
A voice emanated faintly down the hallway. She leaned into the sound, eyes narrowing in recognition. It wasn’t Simca’s, or Julia’s, or Paul’s, but it was familiar.
“I know this is a bit of an intrusion Simca, and I apologize.”
Her heart stopped.
She must have been hallucinating because there was no earthly way Blanche could be here the very same day Judith herself arrived. It was too astonishing for words.
But she would know that deep, commanding voice anywhere.

Mastering the Art of American Sleeping by SapphicScholar for TryingToGetSomewhereReal
Fandoms: Julia (TV 2022)
15 Apr 2025
Tags
Summary
"Judith’s laugh cuts through the utter silence of the night. Silence and darkness. That had been the “promise” of this little sleep retreat after all. None of the brochures had mentioned the highly effective signal blockers blanketing the bedrooms. Something about sleep hygiene. Bullshit. How was Blanche supposed to sleep if she couldn’t finish her to-do list? And who needed that much sleep anyway?"

Summary
“You will be reporting directly to me,” Blanche stated emphatically. “I will expect your undivided attention, and I will not accept excuses.”
“My time is yours,” Judith couldn’t help but charm. Again, the personality traits would need to be reined in.
Blanche waved her off. “I will meet with writers. You will not go behind my back to do so. Is that clear?”
“Crystal,” Judith nodded.
That concluded their first meeting.
And yet somehow Judith felt a fire in her veins that she had never felt before.

Summary
Avis DeVoto had no illusions about her own legacy. She'd be but a footnote in the history of Hollywood's Golden Age, and that suited her just fine. But in the wake of the war, Manhattan and her meandering stage career offer nothing but discontentment and boredom. So, when her dear friend and Hollywood starlet Judith Jones invites her out to the West Coast for a visit, who is she to refuse? To her chagrin, she is not Judith's only houseguest. And bigshot Broadway producer Blanche Knopf has been a thorn in her side for the better part of four decades. And being the third wheel to their pitiful pining is not her idea of fun.

The Art of A Perfect Epilogue by silasfinch for TryingToGetSomewhereReal, SapphicScholar
Fandoms: Julia (TV 2022)
30 Aug 2024
Tags
Summary
Blanche Knopf believes she has crafted the perfect epilogue, allowing herself the indulgence of speaking the truth with love and tenderness. She didn't anticipate that Judith Jones's impeccable instincts would lead to a reunion with Blanche and everything their connection represents.
"Hush now, we may not have all the time that I wish, but there is enough to exist here for a while in what we have created, to learn in each other in this way rather than dancing around the edges of desire." Judith scolds tenderly."Did you gleefully steal that line from a desperate author destined for the reject pile? It's not even worth taking out the editor's pen?" Blanche asks, genuinely curious.
"Why should frustrated men in their 40s and 50s get a monopoly on desire and appreciating the art of the female form?"
"Don't raise that at the next company event. There are limits to Knopf's sense of progress." Blanche leans over, greedy for another kiss.

Summary
In the wake of Stanley's betrayal, Avis embarks on a frenzied fury-induced cleaning spree but is soon interrupted by Judith Jones with two bottles of wine in hand and a sympathetic ear. And Avis DeVoto has never turned her nose up at free liquor.
Inspired by a tumblr prompt: "I would love to see more judith/avis! or frankly more avis/nora since now that you've created her I'm obsessed lol. but I'm still a wreck from the judith/avis post-blanche's d*ath fic you published a while back, and am enamored with the idea of avis/judith as an *occasional* but nonetheless entirely delicious concept...
a night together in paris perhaps? or maybe judith comes knocking on avis's door with a bottle of "I hate men for what they did to you" wine after stanley cheats on her, and well... you can imagine what that might lead to...
just food for thought! if you happen to need or want any :)"

Summary
“You are so beautiful,” Judith whispered as she nibbled on her earlobe. “So striking. Whatever you’re thinking, don’t. I look at you, and I see how much you’ve lived, and I like it. Don’t hide from me, sweetheart. Please? Let me see you.”
Avis surrendered. She let Judith kiss her everywhere she pleased. Over her neck and jaw and lips. She let her look. She let her touch. Those lithe fingers of hers that danced over Avis’s jutting angles and non-existent curves. She was so soft and gentle, as if she feared Avis might crumple at the slightest pressure.
Gentle made Avis want to scream. Half-mad with lust, she wanted Judith to take her hard and fast and if she wanted to be gentle later, so be it, but she just felt so hot and heady, and the scent of jasmine and lime hung in the air.
But if Judith wanted to take her time, Avis would let her. She’d let Judith do anything she wanted. She’d be anything she needed. She’d—
“You’re so much like her.”
-----
Judith discovers what transpired in "Substitution" and it would just be rude to leave her out of the loop entirely, wouldn't it?

Summary
Avis DeVoto isn't stupid. She knows Blanche Knopf has pined after Judith Jones for years, decades even. She knows Judith is slim and petite and pale just like her. She knows Blanche would rather feel Judith's smooth, taut, bare skin beneath her. She just doesn't expect it to hurt as much as it does when she finally acknowledges the elephant in the room.
