Summary
Dina’s a 22-year-old English major with a crush on the kind of girl who only dates cool, confident queers. Dina is none of those things. She’s never dated a girl, panics whenever she tries, and the one time she made eye contact with her in the campus café, she dropped her phone into her latte.
Ellie is also 22, a college senior, and one failing grade away from blowing her art degree and losing her scholarship. She needs to pass Contemporary Poetry and the Queer Form to graduate, and she needs help doing it.
Ellie’s dated enough girls to know how the game works. She does not have time for someone else’s gay panic. But she’s also just desperate enough to say yes when Dina proposes a trade: tutoring for tutoring. Books for girls. Clean deal.
Until it isn’t.
Because the more time they spend together in study sessions and late-night practice flirting, the more the plot starts to shift.
Will Dina get the unattainable girl of her dreams?
Will Ellie survive poetry with her GPA and emotional detachment intact?
Or will they both realize they’ve been writing the wrong story all along?The College AU/Tutoring AU/Cyrano De Bergerac AU trifecta you didn't expect from me.

Summary
Dina is a rising star with a carefully managed image and a stalker who won’t go away. When things escalate, her team brings in private security, and Ellie Williams shows up—ex-military and not at all what Dina expected. She seems like all control and calm. She isn’t. Not when it comes to Dina.
Ellie’s job is simple. Keep Dina safe. Stay professional. Follow a strict moral code.
What follows is a dual POV slow-burn bodyguard romance featuring emotional repression, late-night yearning, and at least one security risk caused by being extremely, painfully gay.

Summary
Before Callie could process it, Margo leaning down, tongue to skin, slow and deliberate, dragging salt from Sophie’s shoulder to her collarbone. Sophie shivered, maybe laughing, maybe not. Margo tossed back her tequila without even looking at Callie.
The sight had been a punch to the gut, a shot at the ribs. Hot, humiliating, and wrong in a way that made her feel both furious and weak. She’d been angry enough to leave but instead, rooted herself there, where she belonged, sipping her shot, cheeks warm, pulse buzzing in her ears.
She tried to shake the thought of it but it clung like static.

Summary
[An exploration of what happens with Dina and Ellie after The Last of Us Part 2]
Dina struggles in Ellie’s absence—grief weighing heavy in the quiet hours of the night, JJ’s cries pulling her back to a reality she’s barely holding together. Alone on the farm, it’s too much. So she packs up and moves back to Jackson, where there are people to help, where JJ can be cared for, where she can try—really try—to move on.
But no matter how much she tells herself to let go, she can’t stop wondering. Is Ellie out there? Is she even alive?
Then, one night, there’s a knock at the door.
It’s Ellie.
She looks different—worn, uncertain, standing on the threshold like she doesn’t know if she belongs. She came back, but after all this time, after all the hurt, is there anything left to salvage? Can Dina let her in? Can they find their way back to each other, or has too much been broken to fix?

Summary
Ever wondered what life was like for Ellie and Dina after they left Seattle and returned to Jackson? How Dina’s pregnancy unfolded, or how JJ ended up with the nickname "Potato"? This story dives into their journey, told week by week—from the moment they settle back in Jackson, through every milestone of Dina’s pregnancy, and into the early days of parenthood. Ellie never leaves to go to Santa Barbara.
(ultimately I was frustrated by the lack of fics that explored Dina's pregnancy and how that impacted her and Ellie's relationship so I wrote it myself)
