    Summary

    “The locals aren’t fans of college kids. This is their neighborhood bar. They can get…territorial.”

    Clarke studies the girl who stopped the fight before it began. Leaning back in her chair in the back of the bar, she's all dark hair and dark eyeliner and dark alcohol. Clarke can see what he’s saying: the glare etched into her face is a clear warning for anyone who might step forward to her.

    But the vodka has thinned Clarke’s blood; she’s always been brazen and right now she can’t take that warning as anything less than a challenge.

    She grabs Octavia’s wrist and pulls her forward. “C’mon.”

    Summary

    'Before you,' he said, 'you can see more women than warriors. Cowardly, unarmed, they will give up the moment they see the weapons and bravery of their conquerors who have given them such a drubbing so many times before.' (Tacitus, Annals XIV.36)

    The first time Clarke sees the Head Girl she’s sitting on a throne, presiding over her dominion with a piercing stare and a crown of braids in her hair. Her warriors are spread at her feet, a multitude of them, all long-haired and wild and clad in identical brown regalia. There’s something of the sacred about her, like the crimson cloak draped across her shoulders and her divinity are one and the same.

    Or at least it feels that way.

    British girls' boarding school AU. Obviously.

    Summary

    “It doesn’t matter. Want to know why?” Aaliyah points at her, her voice hissing as she steps into her space, hostility rippling in the lines of her brow.

    She pushes at Cruz’s chest repeatedly, her words in sync with every movement. “I don’t—" shove, “want you—" shove, “anymore,” shove.

    Cruz takes her hits. She is solid, absorbing it all without budging. Her resoluteness breaks Aaliyah open like a dam, and everything she’s been holding back comes pouring out in tears. Her palms continue to connect with Cruz’s body, desperately trying to push it all back in.

    “I don’t want you,” she spits out all at once, her eyes blazing. Cruz isn’t sure, at this point, which one of them she is trying to convince.

    Cruz grabs her wrists the next time they fly toward her chest. She steps into the puddle Aaliyah’s hair has dripped onto the tiles, easing her until her back hits the counter of the sink. She guides her arms down and settles her wrists against the granite, feeling them tremble beneath her fingers.

    “No? Then why are you so upset?”

    OR

    Years later, Cruz tracks Aaliyah down, only to find that she has moved on to someone else. Angst, tears, more tears, a triangle, and all the feelings ensue.

    Summary

    It takes Clarke and Lexa about five seconds to fall in love, but it takes them way too long to realize it. This is that way-too-long.
