Then entered Ava.

Summary
So, Ava’s noticed Beatrice doesn’t like intimacy.
Casual affection and touching is fine, but once Ava returns from the other realm she learns quickly that intimacy is a completely different topic.
And Ava’s just fine with that.
Over time, Ava’s learned to show Beatrice how much she loves her in as many other ways as possible...AKA the 5 ways Ava's learned to show Beatrice how much she's loved and cared for without overstepping her boundaries, and the one time Beatrice surprises her with what she's learned as well.

Summary
Ava held up a thin book, Sadako and the Thousand Paper Cranes. “Apparently, if a sick person folds one thousand paper cranes, they get a wish and they'll get better!”
Beatrice froze, “Ava….”
“Don’t worry, Bea,” Ava said, her eyes softening, “I–I know it won’t work. I’m just going a little stir crazy with nothing to do all day. Jillian cancelled my tutors, she says I need to focus on getting better, which we both know isn’t gonna happen.”
Beatrice pursed her lips, “let me help, at least.”
“What?”
“You’re trying to fold a thousand cranes in–in three–”
She wouldn't say it, she couldn’t, she didn't have to. Three months. The words unspoken filled the room, harsh, suffocating, all-consuming. Three months and Ava was gone. It wasn’t enough time, it would never be enough time.

Summary
“So… you’re not mad?” The alcohol was already settling, warm in her stomach, and the words were out before she could stop them.
“Mad?” Ava asked. “Why would I be mad?”
“I’m…not entirely sure.” Beatrice had run through this conversation a thousand times in her head. Sometimes, the scenario ended with Ava telling her they couldn’t be friends anymore. Sometimes, it ended in a way that would make Beatrice blush to think about. Either way, she never pictured it being this casual.
“It’s cool.”
“It’s – it’s ‘cool?’”
Ava shrugged. “Yeah. I mean, I used to have a ridiculous crush on you too, so I guess we’re even, right?”

Camila accidentally spills the beans to Ava about Beatrice’s feelings. They deal with it like idiots. College AU.

Summary
“Don’t forget the fortune cookies,” she says unnecessarily.
Bea is already carrying them over, having freed them from their plastic prisons. She hides them in her hand and moves her hands behind her back. Ava sees the muscles of her biceps flex as she moves them from hand to hand, mixing them up.
Ava pokes her tongue out of her mouth and squints. After a second, she points to the right hand. Bea hands her the fortune cookie she’s holding and sits back down, cradling her own fortune cookie.
Ava doesn’t wait for any kind of ceremony. She breaks her fortune cookie in half and pulls the fortune out, putting it facedown. She eats one half of the cookie first, for luck. Her mom always did it and Ava doesn’t remember a lot, but she remembers that most of mom’s fortunes came true, so it must have worked.

Summary
Never before an optimist, the feeling of hope used to be somewhat of a foreign concept for Beatrice. It had always been considered impolite to wish for more than she was given, for she had been taught that greed was a sin against God.
Despite this, and against her initial resistance, hope had settled deep in her chest that day, on those steps, some time ago, and never left. It’d festered there — grown, stretched, and spread, like a rash. Hope rooted itself in every fiber of her being, gaining strength even as the time away from Ava lengthened; almost parasitic the way it burrowed so far down into her skin that it reached the innermost part of her. It stuck to her, like sweat, persistent in its very nature. She hoped for Ava every day — and she hated it.

Summary
The world stops when her shaking fingers find their way to Beatrice’s neck, fingertips slick with blood as they search for a pulse in the familiar spot that makes Beatrice make unspeakable noises and do unspeakable things with Ava kisses it, under the sweep of a jawline Ava has so well memorized she might as well have been born knowing it. The world stops because there’s nothing there, a cruel stillness in Beatrice’s veins and laxness to her body as Ava’s shaking hands grab for Beatrice’s wrist, ripping at her bracers so clumsily that the halo flares and the leather-- expensive and combat-prepped, sturdy, strong-- rips under her hands so she can try for the pulse at her wrist.

Summary
Beatrice is standing stiffly across the room. She rolls her shoulders, rolls her head on her neck, stares down at her hands. An unfamiliar smile slides across her face-- and Ava knows all of Beatrice’s smiles now, knows the polite nun smile and the customer service smile from the bar and the friendly smile for Hans and the small genuine one for Camila and the careful genuine one for when Ava makes her laugh and the less careful open one when Ava surprises her with coffee on the rare days she wakes up first-- and Ava’s stomach twists.

Shaw tries to do what is best for everyone and Root goes after her. I got this idea after seeing the pics of a scene Amy and Sarah shot in Prospect Park for Season 5 on tumblr. Just took me way too long to finish it.

"In a world where you can always find something to die for, Root gives you everything to live for."
Root and Shaw, feelings and sex. This started out as me wanting an excuse to write the line "If you want that, you're gonna have to do better than pancakes and light bondage" and it just sort of... evolved.

Summary
With everyone so focused on keeping Shaw safe after her cover was blown, it was almost too easy for Samaritan to grab a completely different member of the team. What happens when Shaw is forced to look at how she feels for Root in the wake of the hacker's kidnapping by none other than Martine? Set sometime after Shaw's cover is blown but I'm still pretending 4x11 never happened. 0:)
