Summary
“Why don't we have a magical doorway that permits entry only to the pure of heart?” Cosette leans, more wistfully than the situation calls for, across the counter. “Imagine how much more relaxed our jobs would be.”
“I don't think they would be, given that our alterations tailor wouldn't be able to enter the store anymore,” Éponine says drily, but there's a softness to her tone, so Cosette is still on her good side.
“Montparnasse can use the back door. Or you'll lend him your overcoat; cloak him in goodness.”
Éponine bites back a smile, and it feels like a victory. “I'm sure he'd love that.”(In which Cosette will make sure no one in her bridal boutique is unhappy if it's the last thing she does, Éponine refuses to express an Emotion, and Bahorel has no intentions of bettering himself.)

Maeve must confront what she wants from life and what it means to be a hero far away from The Seven.

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.

“I’m here because... I think my kid is having some kind of delusional breakdown because he can’t cope with the fact that ... Mayor Mills and I split up.”
Dr. Hopper pushes his glasses up his nose in a measured movement. “What makes you think that?”
“Well, among other things, he thinks his mother is about to cut Mary Margaret Blanchard’s heart out of her chest, before pulverizing it and sending her into a coma that only her true love can rescue her from.”

Summary
Jemma is a graduate student, working in a very prestigious collaborative lab at Culver University. It’s not that she’s not interested in dating, it’s just that relationships are too much of a distraction right now. If she wants to finish her Masters and PhD in five years and have an article published in Nature before she’s thirty, she simply doesn’t have time.
She’s not expecting to meet Skye, the cute barista at the local coffee shop. She’s also not expecting Skye to think she’s cute right back (or to be such a good kisser). She’s certainly not expecting to need to decide if Skye means making an exception to her rules about dating.
