Summary
Realizations often don't happen during a singular defining moment, but instead in smaller ones which build on one another until it's difficult to deny the truth.
OR the five times Ruby and Weiss have shared a kiss, from Beacon days to their stay in Argus.

Summary
Diana has her life down pat. She's a doctor in a small, quiet town with two friends and her books. She doesn't expect everything to change when a girl literally rams into her life (on the crosswalk), gets into multiple accidents which require medical attention, and somehow is always at the right place and time.
And... surely those red eyes weren't real?
[Small Town AU - older!LWA gang, Doctor Diana, Accidental Cat Moms, Akko being so many things, and a bunch of side-stories]

Summary
"Can I help you?" a voice asks from behind her. Yang jumps, and spins on her heels.
A girl stands, one hand on her hip, the other holding a book. Straight, dark hair. Sharp features. One elegant eyebrow raised. A paleness to her that makes her angelic.
Yang's throat dries. She is suddenly aware of how miserable she must look. "Uh, what?"
The girl's face remains blank. "I asked if I could help you," she says in a smooth voice, "to find whichever book you want."
Yang's first thought is: Right now, books are the last thing I want.
~
A sudden rain forces Yang to stumble into an old bookstore, where she meets an enigmatic girl who draws her into the world of literature.
AKA, in which Yang accidentally becomes a bookworm in her attempt to ask Blake out on a date.

Summary
“What would you do if you were stuck in a time loop?”
“Hah?” Marcy answers eloquently. She’d been regaling Sasha with everything she’d learnt about Amphibia’s constellation while they waited for the sun to rise before Sasha broke in with the question.
“Y’know, like if the same day or week was just repeating.”
“I know what a time loop is, silly. You’re just not normally into this kind of stuff.”

“I can’t,” Ruby says. A one-shouldered shrug, half of a smile. There are two sides to people, Weiss knows.
“Okay,” Weiss says, softly; it sounds like a question, one that Ruby doesn’t hear. For a second Weiss thinks about following. She would follow Ruby anywhere, she knows.

Summary
(White Rose Week 2020: secret relationship)
Your imagination runs wild, and you can’t stop thinking about it, what it would be like to press your lips to her, to run your hands through her hair, to run your fingers through her hair even though you know they'll come away damp from her shower. You can't stop thinking about it, can’t stop wondering what it would be like, getting to feel your lips on hers while you catch a whiff of vanilla perfume and taste the mint of her toothpaste. The idea indents itself into your mind, branding itself in your head as though you were always meant to imagine it.
You blink, staring (staring staring staring—) and blurt, “Your hair is really pretty.”
Weiss blinks, and you find yourself blinking back. For a moment you think that is all that will happen to the two of you today, blinking at each other in some silent war like cats, telepathically fighting a battle that neither of you knew anything about.
Or;
Ruby can't handle the idea of people thinking that she and Weiss are in some sort of secret relationship. (Mainly because she might actually maybe possibly be totally and entirely in love with her.)

Summary
The beginning of most love stories: the moon falls in love with the sun.
(The problem, however, is that most love stories aren’t set in the Boiling Isles. To confirm that the metaphor works adequately, there must exist at least one moon and one sun in your admittedly bonkers world. Is there a sun? A moon? There is? Awesome!)
Luz is the sun and Amity is stupidly, inevitably, ineffably in love with herBookmarked by astral_ocean
