Not Quite Shining by senseoftheday
Fandoms: The Locked Tomb Series | Gideon the Ninth Series - Tamsyn Muir
28 Aug 2023
Tags
Summary
In less than a week, Gideon would be surrounded at any moment by goggling children and fawning women, and their interactions would consist of Gideon winking at Harrow from over the heads of her entourage as she took endless selfies. It was excruciating to watch, but at the moment, felt preferable to watching Gideon awkwardly scratch her head and ask “How’s stall set-up going?” as if it would ever be possible for the two of them to have a normal conversation.
****
It’s Harrow’s last year selling bone jewelry at the Dominicus Renaissance Faire before she finishes her PhD. Which means one last summer putting up with Sir Gideon, the obnoxious knight that’s been a thorn in Harrow’s side for the past three years. Except, Harrow made out with her at last year’s end of season party, and things have only gotten more complicated since then.

Summary
"It'd be easy to remember" Enid's tone became more intense as she spoke. "Unless it's your habit to give dandelion rings and propose to every kid you meet," she remarked, bitterness in her voice.
Wednesday found out Enid's the stalker. But Enid just has a crush, although it's a bit intense.

Summary
Life's not bad for Gideon. She's got a nice predictable job, good friends, a hot roommate. The worst thing is having to deal with her roommate's shitty sister and their terrible friend, but its worth the tradeoff.
It was simple, and for Gideon that was good enough.
But things hadn't always been so great. Someone died and the events that followed shattered her world, but you'd never know it talking to her.
Then one day a familiar face returns and turns everything upside down. Gideon thought she'd moved on but then doubt began to creep in...
Please read the tags. I'll add them as I come across them. So please review them from time to time <3

Summary
Of all her gigs, writing advice for a column in a skin magazine is probably Gideon's favorite, though walking Noodle for Cam and Pal is a close second. Even when it brings her within glaring distance of their across-the-hall neighbors. The Nonagesimus sisters. The younger, a little weird but fine. The elder? A pit viper.
At least on the surface.
Explicit scenes in later chapters.

Summary
“We need to pretend that we’re dating,” Ianthe says all in a rush, “so Harrow will see what she’s missing.”
It makes sense. It shouldn’t, but it does, so Gideon nods again. She’s sure that Ianthe has already figured out all of the logistics already, so she just sticks out her hand for Ianthe to shake and forces her mouth open to say, “Deal.”- Language:

Summary
She got ready for work without turning any of the lights on, trying to move her head as little as possible. This was an unfortunately common routine for Gideon, who thought it was very possible that banging her head full force into a concrete wall until she passed out would hurt less. Harrow had told her that, in her clinical opinion, it probably wouldn’t.

Summary
“It’s about compromise,” Glimmer supplies, “seeing how well two conflicting people work together under difficult circumstances for an extended period of time. Adora goes to the gym everyday, Catra’s only form of workout is walking from her dorm to her classes, Adora wakes no later than eight in the morning, Catra got mad at me for waking her up,” she lifts her hands for air quotes, “‘in the middle of the night’ at eight in the morning—”
“Adora obviously wants to be friends, but Catra keeps pushing it off,” Entrapta adds in, and based off the way both Glimmer and Bow grimace, that wasn’t supposed to be mentioned.
“So what,” Adora starts, “you just… handcuffed us together in our sleep?”
(or, in which Glimmer handcuffs Adora and Catra together for twenty-four hours, Entrapta is a little shit, and Bow is an innocent bystander in the entire mess.)

Summary
Adora lagged a few steps behind Catra, wanting to appreciate the time they had together. Something in the way she moved was like a work of art: the way her hips swayed gently as she walked, the slight tilt to her head as she scanned the paintings, how her fingers absentmindedly ran through her messy short hair.
Despite working in the museum for a year and a half, Adora had never considered herself qualified to appreciate art.
Maybe being around Catra was changing that.

Summary
“Look, can I ask you something? It’s your birthday so I don’t know if you’ve set any boundaries on hook-ups but…”
“Hooking up?” And then Adora just can’t stop, “Oh, no, I’m not hooking up. I mean. I have, but not now. Not, uh, a thing I do really. Um...yeah.”
Catra is kind enough to try to hold back her smile.
“Well, you just made this super awkward,” she breathes out. “I was gonna ask if your friend was single. You're hot and all. But every word out of your mouth has been a total bummer, not gonna lie.”
Adora has died and gone to lesbian hell. She always knew it would come to this.
__Adora Gray's life is on track, just the way she likes it – ever steady, no surprises. And then Catra Morgan crashes her birthday party and turns everything upside down by dating her best friend Glimmer and making Adora fall for her.
That's fine! Adora is not panicked at all, thank you very much. She has some detailed, multi-step plans to ignore her growing feelings and navigate this all. But Catra, and her past, have a pesky tendency of showing up and throwing everything for a loop.

Summary
“Could I get your number?” they ask, as if they’re not still a completely faceless enigma that’s been making one-sided passes for two weeks now.
“So I’m supposed to exchange messages with someone who I wouldn’t even be able to pick out of a police lineup if this ends up being just a long con to get me to join a cult?”
To her shock, they place an elbow on the bar, lean over, and lower the hood.
“Does this increase my chances?” they ask with a goofy smile.
They're cute. Like 90s teen drama cute. Like Catra could see them singing fucking annoying pop songs outside her window cute. That’s not good. This person is absolutely trouble.
“Fuck,” Catra breathes out. It kinda feels like someone just kicked her right in the gut in a thrilling way. “You couldn’t have the decency to make this easier by being ugly?”
Catra finally meets the woman of her dreams/nightmares, a goofball blonde with big captain save-a-ho energy. She's easy going, gets Catra's jokes, and likes her band, even though it's pretty shitty and Catra's sabotaging them from the inside. It's just a shame that the girl is already competing on a reality show for 20 women's hearts.

Summary
“I'm leaving Halfmoon,” Catra interrupts, with great indignation. “I'm leaving and finding a suitable mate.”
“No,” is all C’yra finally says.
Catra has already quietly wandered over to the other side of the room where Lonnie keeps her reading and work materials. Catra unfoils an ancient map of Etheria.
“Now,” she mumbles to herself, “How to pick a destination? There must be someplace out there. Something bigger and brighter than Halfmoon.”
Lonnie snorts at the absurdity of this. Catra’s “plan” doesn’t even have a location yet. How typical.
Prince Catra gives a sudden trill. “Bright Moon! What a dumb name. I love it.”
Prince Catra of Halfmoon must find a mate and solidify her connection with the runestone before her 25th birthday if she wants to inherit the throne. Unfortunately, she's either alienated or rejected every eligible woman in the kingdom. But maybe she'll have better luck in Bright Moon. Especially after a chance meeting with a certain blonde with a hero complex.
