Summary
The client hadn’t really requested anything at all; their emails had been almost overly polite, if not jarringly formal, and had selected only the most vanilla options on the questionnaire she provided. Certainly a far cry from the standard practices of her usual clientele, but this one had paid upfront and picked this expensive hotel, and Mira’s fees are dear enough on their own that she had been coloured intrigued.
Mira takes a left down the hallway after leaving the elevator and finds herself at the door to the room. She doesn’t steel herself—doesn’t need to. She can handle anything. Has handled most things. Mira swipes the keycard and lets herself in.
The person sitting on the bed is probably the last thing she expects.
In which Mira is a professional, Rumi is socially inept, and Zoey is also there. Let's hope nobody catches feelings.

Summary
Yang isn't just any cheerleader- Yang is *the* cheerleader. She's homecoming queen, has the sweetest, most stellar boyfriend in the whole world, and is at the top of her game. About to graduate as Valedictorian of her class, Yang is ready to finish off her high school experience strong. At least... until a sudden and rather unfair intervention leaves her conflicted, and uncertain.
Suddenly, Yang is packing her bags for three months at True Directions, a queer youth summer camp. But... she can get through it. She's got her pom poms, a tentatively optimistic output, and a new frenemy, after all.
((DISCLAIMER: this is in no way, shape or form about conversion therapy camps- the fic takes a lot of dynamic inspiration from But I’m a Cheerleader, but that’s about it- the camp itself is very much a queer youth summer camp, modeled off of two I've been to myself!))

Summary
D.E.B.S./The Man from U.N.C.L.E. AU - Hidden within the Huntsman Academy Entrance Exam is a secret test that determines an aptitude for espionage. Those who score highly are recruited into the Remnant Intelligence Agency and tasked with keeping track of the growing cold war between the kingdoms.
Blake Belladonna’s final mission before RIA Academy graduation starts easily enough: routine surveillance of a meeting between Yang Xiao Long, the daughter of a disgraced spy and heir to an information empire, and a White Fang Operative. What was meant to be an easy intel grab quickly spirals out of control.

Summary
“I don’t want you do something stupid on international television when you could’ve just downloaded Tinder,” Weiss says. Blake smiles—there’s the Weiss she knows—and goes back to folding her shirt.
“I’m not going to do anything stupid,” she says. “I’m not looking to meet anyone, and if I was, I wouldn’t go after wannabe reality TV stars. But they’re going to fly me all over the world, Weiss, and pay me more than I made in four years of royalties off my last book.”
“When you put it like that, it sounds almost reasonable.”
“That’s because it is,” Blake says. “Now help me pack or get out of my apartment.”
“Just promise me you won’t actually marry someone you meet on reality television."
(Blake agrees to become Remnant's next bachelorette for a lot of reasons, but getting married is absolutely nowhere on that list. Then, of course, she meets Yang.)

Summary
Day and night, it’s all the same inside of Rusty CrowBar; it’s not a total dive but not really high class either. Yang’s been there since she was legal, and you see all kinds of people come and go. Most of them don’t leave an impact. It's just a few bills and some change tossed on the bar, or sometimes a phone number if she was extra charming.
But then there’s this girl.
She sits on the same barstool every Thursday, sad and mysterious. Yang doesn’t even know her name, but she wants to.
Yang wants a lot when she looks at her.

Summary
"Love does not consist only of gazing at each other, but in looking forward together in the same direction."
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
Yang Xiao Long and Blake Belladonna have never met, but they share a common problem; parents who are over eager for them to get married and settle down. They also have a looming sense of responsibility to their villages inherited by the nature of their last name. When Yang is set up on ANOTHER blind date by her father, this time with the daughter of two prominent Faunus Equity activists after they give a presentation in Patch, she humors him because it's not like she's dating anyone for real any time soon. She isn't expecting how easily she gets along with Blake, but eventually she recognizes a painful amount of herself in the other person.
Inspiration strikes one day; why not get married? It gets their parents off both their backs, and Blake a free ticket out of Kuo Kuana. Not to mention, free space to explore themself. What's the worst that could happen? Both of them come to learn that none of Yang's ideas are ever simple.

Yang Xiao Long appears to be the only option Blake has left, but there’s something about her inky black hair and ferocious red eyes that seem unnatural on her. Yang is feared by almost everyone, but the more Blake learns about her new wife, the more familiar she becomes.
And why does Blake dream of golden hair and lavender eyes?

Summary
Yang isn't the biggest fan of Christmas. Blake is determined to change that.

Summary
AU: Blake is disillusioned: with her career in the White Fang Ballet, with her oppressive boyfriend and ballet master, and her life in general. A chance visit to the Shattered Moon Circus, however, introduces her to trapeze artist and aerial dancer Yang, who offers to teach Blake how to fly. As she learns to let go and trust in the people who catch her, she falls in more ways than one when it comes to Yang.
“Blake,” Sienna says, calmly. “Have you lost your goddamn mind?”
And maybe she has. After all, Blake can't just run away and join the circus.

Summary
There are a few things Yang knows for sure: nothing beats a fresh snowfall; all skiers are total nerds; her sister has never done anything wrong in her entire life; and every single time Blake Belladonna smiles at her, she feels like she’s at the top of her favorite slope, heart in her throat, board hanging over the edge. (She also knows that, someday soon, she’s going to have to do something about that last one.)

Summary
2 years, 8 months, 12 days. That’s how long Blake spent planning the heist of her dreams. It’s also how long she spent in jail. Now that she’s out, she gets to work. She’ll need a team of the best criminals she can find, a way to convince Yang to be her partner-in-crime again, and… a way to get back to how they were. Infiltrating and robbing the most exclusive event of the year might be easier than getting Yang to fall in love with her again.

Summary
Before her final year of college, Yang moves into an old house on the edge of campus. Like a puzzle box, the house reveals itself in time – staircases going nowhere, hallways twisting into labyrinthine passages, and a ghost that’s been haunting it for longer than she can remember. Yang and the ghost are drawn together in an August kind of love, sun-soaked and inevitable.
But summer doesn't last forever. As Yang retreats further from reality, she and the ghost have no choice but to delve deeper into the labyrinth, or find a way out together.
(a love story)

Summary
Sometimes the darkness she crossed an ocean and a continent to escape sneaks between the cracks and threatens to drag Blake down. Sometimes she feels like she’s speaking in a different language, or walks on a slightly different plane of existence from the people around her. Ilia says Blake is doing ok— but if she is, why is it so hard for her to talk to the beautiful girl who comes into the coffee shop? And why can’t she find a model for her final thesis portfolio?
Yang clings fiercely to her public image, even the not-so-flattering parts of it. She does her best to ignore her sister and Pyrrha, who tell her that she deserves something more than just living day to day. The accident that marked the end of her old life and the start of the new left painful scars on her body and her heart. Maybe life is better if it’s simple.
She’s about to find out that being friends (or something more) with a strange, cute barista is about as far from simple as she can get.When you get down to it, we all have our faults. It’s what you do with them that people remember.

Summary
They call her a monster - at least, that's what the 4 o'clock news says when another murder victim is found. And maybe they're right, but they're far from understanding, and even farther from catching her.
For Yang, its all about the bait, the battle, the games. It's boring when the police are far behind so she gets reckless for the thrill, and attracts the attention of the one person that can give her the game she's been seeking this whole time; Blake, a notorious private investigator who's only objective in life is to chase - whether it be criminals or not - has finally found her perfect target.
Maybe they're insane, and perfect for each other in their own crazy, gruesome way. The exhilaration, the smell of fresh blood, the thud of a knife that plants itself in the wood of the door an inch beside your head. Its the final game, one that will only end when one of them is dead.

Summary
The wilds of Remnant hold history. (Ancient memories in fallen stone, foregone whispers filtered through the leaves of great oaks, the ghost of a touch carried by the breath of the wind.) Yang wakes one hundred years after catastrophe and must collect the pieces of her own past as she moves through places she can’t quite remember, searching for the people she loved a lifetime ago. Some things are stronger than the gaps cleaved by loss, and she will fight for a princess she recalls only in fragments, long before she fully understands why.

Summary
Yang's untouchable; Blake's anything but. The first time they meet can't be the first at all, not with Yang lighting up every billboard on the Sunset Strip and Blake's voice crooning through the radio regardless of the station, not when every motion of Yang's is achingly familiar and every turn of Blake's mouth leads like a staircase. It's Hollywood, and Yang's spent years learning how to get exactly what wants her - Blake's spent years running from it.
If I could, Blake says, I'd kiss you right now.
If I could, Yang says, I'd let you.

Summary
“I think, as a rugby player, you don’t get to make fun of other people’s needlessly complex sports,” Blake says. “I…read a little bit about it, after you got hurt. I know they weren’t expecting you to…” Get better.
“Yeah, well, if there’s one thing I love, it’s not meeting expectations,” Yang says wryly. “Besides, I’m not the only one who’s recovered from something over the past four years."
“You heard about all that?” Blake says. The breakup—and the ensuing legal battle—had only made the news because of who her parents are. Otherwise, nobody would’ve cared about who Menagerie’s bronze medalist gymnast broke up with. No one, apparently, except Yang.
“I kept up with things,” Yang says. “I’m happy for you, too. You look happier without him.”
(blake comes to the vytal games knowing they're her last gymnastics competition. all she wants is to prove that she can compete, that she can win without adam pulling her strings. she isn't necessarily planning on colliding with yang xiao long, vale's shining rugby star and miraculous injury comeback success story, for the second time in as many games, but—
well. she isn't complaining, either.)

Summary
AU: Yang can’t imagine a life that isn’t spent on the ocean. She lives and breathes the salty air, and feels right at home aboard the Huntress, where she spends her days catching fish. As much as she loves the ocean, though, she’s long accepted that she’ll never know every secret the ocean has to offer. The vast waters will always hold its mysteries, and Yang is content enough just to live on its surface and never question what lies beneath.
This all changes when Yang hauls something unexpected out of the water. Blake Belladonna is every mystery Yang’s never thought about, every fairy tale come to life. She’s beautiful and alluring, and something about her calls to Yang. But Blake has secrets of her own, secrets that just might prove more threatening than the ocean itself.
But for the first time, Yang wants to take that plunge and uncover all of them.
