    Summary

    Tomorrow, she could be gone, and everyone would remember She-Ra, the great and mighty hero who toppled empires and sacrificed herself for the future of Etheria.
    Catra would remember Adora, dorky and sweet, who was bright in a world of shadows, who had scuffed knees, tired smiles, and calloused hands.

    Summary

    It's what they used to call children who were odd, or disabled. Before modern medicine knew why certain brains worked differently, how chemicals became imbalanced, or neurons misfired, it was so much easier to blame it on magic. So, the farmer's son had a twitch in the eye, or couldn't understand why people laughed, or couldn't talk at all, what was the answer? Simple. That wasn't the farmer's son. The real farmer's son must have been abducted by fairies as a baby, and the one they had left over...

    They called them changelings.

    Summary

    Maybe this had gone too far, Sokka allowed, the firmest of fake smiles affixed to his face. Stealing was one thing, doing whatever it took to survive was another, and faking it till you made it had always been his number one motto, but maybe, maybe, this had gone too far.

    The Earth Kingdom mansion was practically plated in gold, the plants outside manicured into perfectly symmetrical shapes, and the accompanying servants wore impeccable clothing with manners to match. Sokka, on the other hand, had a smile, a suit that probably cost more than everything in his entire village, and the fervent hope that everything would turn out alright.

    "Nice digs, huh?" Bumi, mad king of Omashu, elbowed him in the ribs, grinning. "Get it? Digs?"

    Bumi was there, too.

    Summary

    She looked older. Taiyang supposed he'd never really gotten a good look at Ruby since the accident. The hospital had given her so many creams and bandages he wouldn't have been able to see much if he tried, but it was his lack of trying that really let him down this time. To be honest, he hadn't wanted to see what she looked like after. Not because he didn't want to see her burns, but because he didn't want to see her in pain he couldn't do anything about.

    When he looked into her eyes, at her face grinning up at him, he saw she was more than happy to see him. But she was also in pain.

    That's why she looked older.

    Summary

    “We’re meeting Raven where?”
    ______

    Raven Branwen has come to Vacuo. She’s agreed to fight against Salem. And she’s told Ruby and Yang everything they want to know about what happened to their mother. Now, she has asked the girls for a chance to be in their lives – to get to know the family she abandoned for so many years – and her daughter has begrudgingly accepted.
     

    All that’s left is to do is go through with it.

     
    Even if ‘normal family time’ is a notion Raven has long-since forgotten. Even if Yang intends on testing Raven’s newfound resolve until she finds its limits. Even if the girls ask her to patronize a sticky, sugar-filled establishment with a talking cup for a mascot…

     
    Whatever it takes.

    -

    Summary

    Ruby skipped over to the bed and fetched her scroll, opening it back up to where she had been at previously. “Okay, because this is at the top of the mission board right now.” She handed her phone to her sister. “There’s a tribe that needs a huntsmen escort back to the city because people in their group keep going missing.” She described. “They’re nearby, and they really need our help.”

    Yang hummed, reading the mission description. Ruby crosses her fingers and her toes. Her team doesn’t blindly follow her, and Ruby doesn’t want to force them into anything that can’t be agreed unanimously. But Ruby needs this. She can’t put an exact explanation on why, she just does.

    Yang purses her lips, and Ruby realizes she’s just staring at it for extra long just to be annoying.

    “Yaaaaang!” Ruby groans.

    AKA: Taking the general vibes and character beats of the JLXRWBY movie part II and turning it into a story that could logically take place in the actual main timeline of the story.

    Blake and Yang have had enough. The soft smiles. The accidental touches. The “we’re just friends” routine.

    Clearly, it’s time for drastic measures.

    Two lesbians. One closet. Zero chance of denial making it out alive.

    What if we had episodes on the other four coven heads who were never properly introduced; Vitimir, Osran, Mason, and Hettie Cutburn? Plus some other storylines, dynamics, and ideas I'd have liked to see.

    What follows is a canon-compliant set of four scripts, each comprising a hypothetical episode of its own. These are set between O Titan, Where Art Thou and Clouds on the Horizon. Luz, Eda, and King find themselves on an usual road trip in the final days before the Day of Unity, helping the CATTs' and other people's objectives along the way; Their journey begins and ends in Latissa.

    Summary

    “So, John,” Elaine says, smiling demurely. “What kind of ability do you have?”

    John wants to sneer at her, but he doesn’t have the energy. “None of your business.”

    Elaine raises her brows. Her smile turns sharp, amusement dancing in her eyes. “What’s that supposed to mean?”

    John knows what everyone’s going to take it to mean. He hopes they decide to figure it out for themselves, give him an excuse to grind their teeth into dust.

    ———

    Or: John doesn't pretend to be a cripple when he enters Wellston.
