Summary
"Their history hangs above them like the stars in the sky. What happened indeed. Centuries of asking has gotten them nowhere but here, sisters sat like a priest and a confessor, one a vessel for the other’s vices. Wynonna wonders what Waverly does with all her damage, if it weighs her down like a pocketful of stones.
One day Wynonna worries she’ll drown in the depths of her despair, too tired to tread water she never wanted to swim in."
A masked scarecrow haunts Wynonna, and only Waverly knows why.
Set throughout all the seasons and ending sometime during season 4.

Summary
“Her better judgement died the moment she agreed to raiding a semi-abandoned bar teeming with revenants, and its coffin was laid to rest with her sobriety: stupidly, dishonorably, and on a seventh shot of whisky.
It was a damn good tombstone etching for an Earp, who Nicole was afraid she was becoming by association alone, but not her.”
Dolls dies and everyone doubts everything they thought they knew, but a revenant with a penchant for dredging up deep-seated doubt and a perpetually drunk Wynonna work tirelessly to prevent Nicole from ever believing in herself again.

Summary
Kara opens the latch on the window but takes a moment to look back at a lazily stretching Lena Luthor tangled in her purple sheets, looking too much like a morning after than an innocent sleepover amongst friends. Lena quite deliberately pulls her bottom lip between her teeth as she smiles at the unmoving hero a few feet away. Kara’s mouth goes dry, her head light and fuzzy.
Rao she’s so beautiful.
AKA In post Lex Luthor world, Kara struggles to figure out how she really feels about Lena and how Lena maybe, possibly feels about her.

Summary
Kara cradles her pile of dirty plates. She doesn’t know how to open Lena’s brand new dishwasher without ripping the handle apart. She usually figures these things out through trial and error, but she’s never been alone in Lena’s apartment, and she can’t risk winging it in front of her.
So, she just stands by the sink and watches the hot water redden Lena’s sensitive skin, the light glinting off her beautiful earrings, and my happiness bites the plum of your mouth.The verse comes to her, unbidden, from one of their weekly poems. Lena always chooses poems with such physicality to them. Always real, touchable.
---Or: Kara is an alien, Lena is a genius. Their strangeness separates and connects them to the world and each other in peculiar ways. Being human in Lena’s eyes allows Kara to tap into parts of herself she hadn’t been able to explore before, but she knows her secret will one day stop being a bridge between them, and they’ll both lose the version of Kara Lena has grown to love. (Tender slow burn, mutual respect, bittersweetness and tentative physicality galore! Some angst and a lot of joy)
