    Summary

    Gideon had longed for the Cohort. She had tried to enlist in the Cohort thirty-three times. She had wanted the drop ship, the medals, and the prize money. She had dreamed of a battle in which she was both outstanding and very hot.

    What was that saying—you should be careful what you wish for?

    --

    My take on the sixth months between the destruction of the Mithraeum and the end of Nona from Gideon’s point of view, as she goes from floppy resurrected Revenant to a tool of the Imperialist Empire and Ianthe's worst best friend.

    Summary

    They stay that way for a long time, Catra’s face tucked into Adora’s shoulder, Adora gently cradling Catra’s head. Adora is careful not to hug Catra too hard or make her feel restrained, anticipating the moment that Catra will start to pull away — but Catra doesn’t. She hangs on so tightly it hurts, her claws digging through Adora’s jacket and into her back, latching into her like she did when she was a kitten and didn’t know how much her claws could hurt. Adora tries not to wince, tries not to move a single muscle, worried that if she does the spell will break and Catra will struggle away, appalled at having shown weakness.

    But Catra doesn’t let go. And so neither does Adora.

    Summary

    The best-friend-squad split into two teams to restore a planet's magic; Adora and Glimmer to rekindle it, Bow, Catra and Melog to investigate some ruins stifling it. Things seem to go well, but when Adora heads back to the ship, Bow's stood outside, waiting for her...

    Summary

    “Aren’t you two—”

    “If you’re done talking about Adora and Catra getting married,” says Entrapta, with all the subtlety and tact of a sledgehammer, “I have calculated the voltage needed…”

    Wherever the rest of Entrapta’s sentence is going to go, it falls away. The whole room falls away as understanding hits Catra like a bolt of lightning, an electrifying shock to her system that leaves her reeling. Getting married? Her and Adora? Questions well up on her tongue — What? Why? — and she doesn’t realize she has fumbled through those fragmented inquiries until Frosta answers her.

    “Um. You’re wearing Adora’s pin.”
