    Summary

    After dying, becoming the Warrior Nun, and blowing up the goddamn Vatican to escape the devil himself, it's in a small apartment hidden in the Alps on a random Tuesday that Ava's life truly begins again (and again, and again).

    Summary

    To Ava, nothing had ever been so confusing, so gorgeous, so heartbreaking as the discovery of her own body. And then there was her discovery of Beatrice’s.

    Or,

    Ava accidentally sees Beatrice naked. It makes the whole "sharing a one bedroom apartment in Switzerland" thing a little more complicated than it was before. A comedy of errors in three acts.

    Summary

    Beatrice is on her knees, in a way that is not holy. It isn’t God who will bring Ava back to her, it’s the universe that she will bend around her if need be. Maybe life is all about sitting in the event horizon, letting the tide of fate exercise its will. But Beatrice knows fate. She has seen it in her dreams, draped in gold and wearing the smile that woke her from slumber. She has stared directly into the sun, and it’s her.

     

    It’s her, it’s her, it’s her.

     

    (or, it’s Beatrice against God, and Beatrice won’t lose)

    Summary

    Beatrice is looking up, not at the sky, but at Ava, with the softest expression that Camila’s ever seen her do. Her hands are resting on Ava’s thighs to keep her steady (Ava, who’s now preoccupied with the lights and the fireworks, taking everything in).

    And Beatrice, who doesn’t seem to be fazed at all that she’s carrying almost her body weight, is just content with seeing nothing if it means that Ava can see everything.

    (or, based on my Tumblr post, Beatrice would definitely carry Ava on her shoulders just so she could watch the fireworks even though Ava can literally levitate and Ava will go along with it because they're idiots in love)

    Summary

    5 times beatrice comes out, & 1 time she doesn't have to

    'if you talk now, you’re sure it’ll turn into a sob, so you just stand and ava does too, when you hold your arms open. she’s small, and soft, and she smells like flowers. she tucks her nose, a little cold, into the crook of your neck and it makes you shiver, just slightly. you allow yourself an indulgence, a kindness: you bring your hand to rest on the back of her head, to hold her close, to protect her.'
