Summary
“Beatrice, look at this!” Ava holds up a hat for her to inspect. It’s a hat, navy blue, with the words 'Women want me, fish fear me' sewn neatly across the front of it. Beatrice bites back the smile that threatens to spread across her face.
“That certainly fits you,” she says, because it does.
“Look, I found one for you, too,” Ava says, digging around in a pile of similar-looking hats. She pulls another one out, this one a dark red color and slightly more raggedy than the first, and Beatrice squints to read the worn text sewn across the top.
'Cooler than you,' it reads, with a cartoonish printing of a pair of sunglasses directly underneath. The smile tugs at her mouth again and this time Beatrice isn’t able to smother it completely. Ava looks entirely too pleased about that.
Beatrice says, charmed against her will, “I’m not too sure that’s my style.”

Summary
Diego elbows Ava lightly in the side to get her attention. "Ava? How come you don't have a boyfriend?" he asks.
What if it’s because of him? What if she’s so busy always trying to make sure that he’s taken care of that she’s missing out on all the things other nineteen-year-olds get to do?
"Huh?" There's a pause, and he can almost see Ava's brain stutter into stillness before lurching back to life. "Well, um, Diego, it's like — I'm really — if I thought that — see, it’s more like —"
He hears Lilith scoff and turns towards her. "It's not that hard. Kid, Ava's down bad for —"
"Shut up, Lilith," Ava grinds out, cutting her off.
—
After leaving St Michael’s, Ava does everything she can to support Diego, including taking him to extracurriculars. Beatrice is his aikido instructor, and it changes everything.

Summary
When manzanitas burn they do not die. Beatrice, too, perseveres in hell.
(Or: Beatrice has always been afraid she’d go to hell. Turns out, her journey isn’t too far. Hell is a place on earth where Ava isn’t any longer.)

Don't let a witch wrangle you into a deal. She may very well steal your heart.
(AKA Ava takes the long way home. It is mostly of her own choosing.)
