Summary
She was in her old barracks. In the Horde. Looking down she saw that she was wearing her old uniform. She kept frantically looking around until the dizziness became too much to bear and she had to sit back down and close her eyes. She sat there for a few moments before slowly opening her eyes again to look around. Confirming her fears.
This can’t be happening.

Ten years after the events of the finale, Adora agrees to help Entrapta with First Ones tech. Only for it to go wrong, and Adora finding herself right back at the very beginning.

Summary
Two years. Two years since the Normandy was attacked, and Tali had to watch it explode while traversing the vacuum of space silently in an escape pod. Two years since Shepard died and her world felt like it was imploding. Two years since her heart shattered, and she had spent an eternity crying on a dirty floor on a turian freighter with Joker silently sitting next to her before Garrus found them both.
Two years.

Summary
“My name's Shepard. I'm looking for evidence to prove Saren's a traitor.”
It almost sounded too good to be true. Everything up until this point had gone wrong. Tali almost didn’t trust her luck. She had no experience with humans, so she had no idea if she was reading the situation correctly. But something about Shepard that seemed different. Like Tali could trust her.
A look at ME1 from Tali's perspective.

Summary
"She had begun to think of Glinda as a friend. Or something close to it anyway. She did seem genuine in how she treated Elphaba. There was an openness in those blue eyes that Elphaba often wondered if it was possible to fake. They had dropped the honorific – Glinda stated that there was no need for that when it was just the two of them. Despite knowing better, knowing that she would only end up being hurt in the end, Elphaba had grown to care for the blonde. More than she liked to admit. Her feelings would only get more complicated from there."
Or
It Was Just Casual, but told from Elphaba's point of view. Can be read as a standalone.

Summary
"This was just casual. Also known as the mantra that Glinda repeated to herself each time they found themselves in these positions. Which happened more often than she liked to admit. She couldn’t remember being so desperate before. Or Elphaba for that matter."
Elphaba and Glinda enter a FWB arrangement to deal with some... issues. Not a big deal. It's Just casual after all.

Summary
Between meeting Future-Catra and her children, finally getting her own Catra to join the Rebellion, and rescuing a somehow-alive King Micah from Beast Island, Adora's been having one of the more exciting weeks of her life. As they return to Bright Moon and begin planning a new mission, she attempts to process some of what she's learned, and take her own future-self's advice to heart. Communication has never been her strong suit, but she's determined to try—though it would be a lot easier if she could stop having epiphanies.
