    Summary

    The moment Raquel sees Sergio at the bamboo bar in Palawan, they face an opportunity to build a life with one another. In the hours, weeks, and months that follow, they bravely excavate the pain of their complex pasts and navigate the challenges of caring for a child and aging parent, all while enjoying the unmatched pleasure of having found one's soulmate—and having risked everything to be together.

    Set against the backdrop of local Visayan culture, this fic details the emotionally textured year of life after Season 2. As Raquel and Sergio uncover their own motivations, fears, and revolutionary values, their courageous choices have the potential to impact their community, their relationship, and the future of our world.

    Author's Note: This work is canon-compliant with the original La Casa de Papel, now known to the world as S1-2. I don't condone the misogynistic messaging, sexualized violence, trivializing of real resistance movements, and out-of-character motivations and backstories in "Money Heist" S3-5.

    Summary

    The second heist has finished, and Raquel and Sergio start over again, facing the expected and unexpected challenges along the way. They've moved their family to a new location, there are certain conversations about the past that have to happen, a grandmother and daughter to take care of, and a whole new life to build together.
    **I began this story before Season 5ive came out and now am conflicted about ending it or not, seeing as how so many things have changed. Part of me still wants to wrap up the final two chapters I have planned, part of me isn't sure anyone will be bothered to read it as it was based off of what the fandom was speculating before Season 5ive was released . . . drop a comment if you have a thought or feeling about it!

    Summary

    Set after the ‘Bank of Spain’ heist: The gang is enjoying their new found freedom. Although, they still are careful, it’s a habit ingrained now to watch every stranger warily, they are starting to enjoy life, without constantly worrying about getting caught.
    But as they gather together to celebrate a special occasion, Raquel feels she still might be a stranger to the rest of the family.

    Is Sergio really the person she thought he was in Palawan, or was it just an illusion?
    Sergio struggles to navigate through the emotional chaos, but realizes belatedly that he’s not the only one who cares about this relationship as much as him.
