    Summary

    Tydus sat alone in the corner of your bedroom, the glow of her rose-etched sword casting faint pink light across the closet door. She clutched one of her beloved pods like a talisman, her knuckles white against the tiny orb of magic and soap.

    “I should be stronger than this,” she whispered to herself, voice shaking. “A warrior, a guardian... but I don’t even know if I’m me. I don’t even know if I’m—”

    The closet door slammed open. Out stepped Tina, her heels clicking against the floor with the rhythmic irritation of a metronome set too high. Her earrings jingled mockingly as she crossed her arms.

    “Oh my god,” Tina scoffed, rolling her eyes hard enough you could practically hear it. “Are we seriously doing this? Another identity crisis? What’s next, you going to write sad poetry about it on my staff paper?”

    Summary

    “I just wanted to say,” he begins, glancing around the hall with a nervousness to him. “That I am here for you. All of us are. This change can’t be easy, ruling so much and so far. You have lost more than anyone should take, and yet you stand tall and prideful before us all, a noble woman and a hero to this kingdom. But you’re not alone, and if you ever… Whether it’s matters of rule, or of heart, I will be here waiting for your call.”

    “Thank you, Tadius. You’re a good friend, and a good man.”

    With a small acknowledging nod he steps back. “As are you Ella. The friend part, not the man—”

    “I understood. Good night.”

    Tadius bows shallow, smiling at her again. “Night, my queen.”

    //

    Aka a character study of Ella Ashmore post-canon, an exploration of grief, and how friendship can develop into comfort and romance (with Tadius,,,, to be clear the romance is with Tadius)

    Also Cinderella's Castle spoilers. Obviously lol

    Summary

    the bad kids were a great adventuring party, adaine thought. not only did they work well together in combat, but they were always there for each other—if one of them was going through a hard time, the others were there for them even if comforting was their weak point (cough fabian cough). they were the best friends that adaine could have ever asked for in her life, and she wouldn't trade them for anything else.

    sometimes, however, they were so infuriatingly oblivious that adaine wanted to strangle all of them.

     

    [five times the bad kids didn't realise adaine and oisin were in a romantic relationship, and the one time they figured it out]

    Summary

    Keeping the Doctor still is like trying to catch stars in a bottle, Clara thinks. He’s something that just can’t be contained, his energy spilling over, electric and crackling and begging to be back in the sky.

    Which is a bit of a problem, considering he and Clara are currently stuck in a sub, miles and miles down under the sea.

     

    (A follow up to the Series 7 episode, Cold War, which ends with the Doctor and Clara being trapped on a submarine until they reach the TARDIS at the South Pole.)

    Summary

    The Doctor has learnt many things about Clara today - in this time she's considered a rare artifact, she's not at all like a fish, she has a reasonable lung capacity. Oh, and she doesn't kiss like the other Clara at all.

    Animals don't like Crowley. Well, they don't like demons in general and Crowley is, of course, a demon. That's fine. Crowley doesn't mind. Why would he mind? And then Aziraphale brings a kitten home.

    Summary

    They should have discussed it more.

    Wasn’t that what humans did? Spend weeks and months talking about what sort of home they want, what sort of life, dreaming of what moving in together will be like. Making sure their dreams matched up, their expectations.

    They didn’t buy cottages – in the middle of a forest, no less, half a mile from the nearest village – without considering questions of…of hobbies, and use of space and…and living arrangements. They certainly didn’t take such a step without…defining their relationships.
    --
    Aziraphale only begins to consider the implications of *moving in together* after they've already done it.

    Summary

    Crowley hadn’t even tried to touch Aziraphale since – oh, around the time the Arrangement started. He’d attempted to shake Aziraphale hand, seal it like a business agreement, and the angel had refused to with a half offended, half apologetic look.
    And every time after that, the accidental brushes, the few moments of tolerating social norms, Aziraphale pulled away as though electrified, as though Crowley’s touch could taint him. And Crowley didn’t want to do that, so he let him, and he never said anything, and he pretended it didn’t ache to feel like something repulsive.
    -------
    After Armageddon, in the wake of freedom, Aziraphale takes easily to the casual affection they are now allowed to express. After millennia of repression, Crowley does not.

    Summary

    “It was a freak accident, her death. One I shouldn’t go into, for both your safety and mine. But I asked about Randall, because-” Hershel takes a heavy, broken breath, and lets his shoulders slouch. He feels tears beginning to prick at his eyes and wishes that, after eight years, this would all be a little easier.

    Henry absentmindedly stirs his tea, stares at his face in the beige coloured reflection. The ripples run over his skin, the image distorted from the angle Hershel looks at it, and his skin crawls with unease.

    “Because I was as certain of Claire’s death as I was of his, and now here Randall is. Alive.”

    or: post-miracle mask, hershel starts having doubts.
